I love this

Eh, while it’s great that these characters are independent, something about all these princesses of color not finding love at the end of their movies rubs me the wrong way. Just like how Disney patted itself on the back for a black princess but she was Frogger damn near the whole movie.

And it would’ve been a great opportunity to cast moc in romantic roles from that culture :/

^^^ I’m so conflicted because yes, always having a love interest is annoying but poc never get to have a love interest

[ororomunroedontpullout]

Having the princesses of color not find love reinforces the idea that we have to strong and independent and aren’t needing of any support

But I do like it because it deviates from the norm

[ida-b-wells-b-whippin-yo-ass-de]

It might be cool if they had dudes in the movie who were interested and they had the princesses be like, “naw, I got shit to do, but maybe later!”

[seekingwillow]

Cause then it would obviously be a choice, instead of a worldstate that WoC don’t get hetero love (I’m not even gonna wish for queer love).

This is actually a good example of the need for intersectional feminism.

 it is very common that white girl characters have love interests and finding love be the plot line and basis for all their stories and interactions.

It is uncommon for a girl character of color to be seen as a potential love interest, in need of defense by a male character and/or support from a male character full stop.

This is because of the history of social devaluation of woc and infantilization of white women.

Thusly:

 it is subversive for white female characters to not have love interests for once and to focus on strength outside of male attention.

while at the same time 

is it subversive for woc to be love interests and treated with care and reverence and with support in relationships on screen. 

The “norms” for two groups of women are different based on the historical interaction both groups have had to suffer under patriarchal and sexist/racist media. 

This is why its okay to feel hurt and roll your eyes when you see people screaming about how michonne from the walking dead “dont need no man” because she’s too “strong” to want to be desired and cared for,  while at the same time feel hurt and roll your eyes when Black Widow is suddenly too helpless to get herself free from a basic ass cage and needs to be rescued by her randomly inserted love interest.

“Isabelle loves to dress up, she loves to wear heels, she loves to wear make-up but something I admire her for is that she is more than that; she knows there are more important things in life. She fights for equality and she embraces her sexuality. I think she is going to be a great role model for young girls.” - Emeraude Toubia

I remember everyone asking when I was doing press for the movie, ‘What did you do to look so thin? You looked great’ and I’m like, ‘I looked emaciated’. It’s a form of violence, in the way that we look at women and how we expect them to look and be, for what sake? Not health, not survival, not enjoyment of life but just so you could look pretty. I’m constantly telling girls all the time, ‘Everything’s airbrushed, everything’s retouched. None of us look like that.’

Laurel Castillo in How to Get Away with Murder (2014–)

I’m a cheater, yes. And a slut, and a bad person. And now a murderer. Judge me if you want, just do it while we are carrying the damn body.

Knowing it’s real means you gotta make a decision. One, keep denying it… Or two, do something about it.
