Gothic literature must be cursed to forever be misinterpreted by mainstream public because how did this happen

Dracula book: an evil count who only sees the world as a resource to be drained for his own pleasure is stopped by the group of people who deeply care for each other

Dracula in media: a tragic romantic hero, main love interest of one of the protagonists who must be liberated from her dull little life

Frankenstein book: any human has capacity for evil when completely abandoned and shunned by the world and the people who brought him into it

Frankenstein in media: don't play God because it's against nature's laws

Jekyll and Hyde book: repression and only caring about external appearances can cause your worst impulses to indulge themselves in dangerous ways if ignored for too long

Jekyll and Hyde in media: what if there was two of the same guy but one of them was evil and gross?

love writing. writing is awesome. it’s a shame that it involves writing though

[robin-stars]

Enjolras is the only white, hegemonic, cisgender, privileged, and wealthy man who can talk about minorities and inequality everyone else can go to hell

One thing that annoys me is how OdyPen is treated in some post-Epic media

The fact that Penelope is viewed as the "masculine" one in the relationship simply because Odysseus is a sensitive man who cries, feels, and is affected by the things he does only reinforces the stereotype that that women, or anything related to femininity, are "sensitive" and weak. Penelope isn't strong because she's Spartan and "could fight off suitors on her own," she's strong because she endured 20 years with 108 men wanting to do horrible things to her just to stay loyal to her husband that she didn't even know was alive. The association that strength is only "valid" when it is physical and masculine only proves that people cannot see a woman as strong in herself; they need to to create a narrative that makes her "the man" in the relationship and physically strong enough to be respected, Penelope is strong because she is a queen, she is smart, she was the only one who could match Odysseus's intellect, not because she is Spartan or a warrior, because she wasn't.

Changing the stereotypes of a standard heterosexual relationship between the two genders is just as misogynistic as the common stereotypes.

They might even say it's a joke depiction, but it affects their characters just as much as a truthful ones, because the greatest truths are often found in jokes, and only exacerbates a prejudice that is already structural in nature.

That's it 🙏
