Did you know Women were the heros once !!!!!

The famous "cliff scene" in Thomas Hardy's 1873 novel A Pair of Blue Eyes (chapters 20–21) is a masterclass in Victorian suspense and cosmic irony. It is famously credited as the literary origin of the term "cliffhanger

Yes the very first cliffhangers,,,women were the heros !!!!!!!

Where a man is hanging fearing death. as his life flashes past him only to be saved by a woman !!!

"How was he saved Karen??"

Well Kate, she tied all her underwear together to create a makeshift rope.!

Hauling the man up to safety.

"Mmm, so not your underwear then "

Hey, I wear good stronger bras!!!!

" mmmmmm"

But wait, there is more Kate, the classic scenario of a man being tied to railway tracks originated in 19th-century theater, most famously Augustin Daly's 1867 play

Under the Gaslight.

Ironically, the original damsel-in-distress actually featured a male victim who was rescued in the nick of time by a brave female protagonist

"Well I never. good at knots,,,,and lots of underwear is all you need!

Since episode 5 apparently people DO now understand why Ashoka is the way she is. Even though it was undeniably clear to anyone with a mind that it's INSANE (and problematic) grown ass people expect a 40 something woman to still be like she was as a teenager. All that has nothing today with 'bad writing' or 'bad acting' that was an expectation an awful lot of people had even before watching Ahsoka and IT IS problematic.

Now apparently there is issue with Hera being force sensitive even though there was no problem accepting the explanation that Han Solos amazing piloting skills probably meant he was unconsciously tapping into the force. Hera IS canonically an amazing pilot. Is it easy for her to consciously tapp into the force? Probably not. Would she want to make the enormous effort it would take for her to do that? Hell no! Hera is not interested in becoming a jedi or using the force.

These same people didn't have a problem accepting Baylans obvious stiffness, stoicness and calm. Actually they admired and applauded him for it but punished and judged the hell out of Ahsoka, I'm sensing a pattern here 🤔🤔.

That is also why it really bothers me when people say Ahsokas eyes weren't Sith they were a reflection. Following with an explanation that she was reflecting HIS emotions and that she had to move passed that or whatever. Or maybe not even an explanation but that is not my point, this wasn't about reflecting anything.

This lesson was NOT ABOUT ANAKIN. This was about Ahsoka and her emotions within her. Her OWN PULL to the dark side, her attachements (which includes her attachement to her padawan because she clearly cares about Sabine a lot), her traumas that is partly Anakin but isnt just about Anakin. Ahsokas was pulled to the dark side because that is within HER that was the whole point of the excercise and lesson. To accept who she is fully and that she is not responsible for Anakins fall to the dark.

Anakin knew that. This lesson was for Ahsoka and Ahsoka alone.

Part of the reason I think this wasn't in Ahsokas mind because that IS about Anakin and his development. He is there for Ahsoka, this isn't about him or his ego.

i’m on the bi cycle i guess. i hope my next foray into the world of…men…is less trauma inducing and more respectful and affirming than my past of aborted dates, jumping the gun, and being used.

I’m reading people’s takes and wondering if we saw the same video.. I felt uncomfortable most of the time and couldn’t finish it. I love the pictures and gifs people are making and I enjoy the aesthetics but as a video it seemed pretty repetitive, boring and unnecessary to me. The last thing it screamed to me is women empowerment and lesbian party.

I’ve said several times that it’s important that people trust their own reactions.  And I think that’s as true of people who found joy in the video as people who hated it.  There’s all sorts of reasons why this video might bring people joy, particularly in times like these.  I want to emphasise that there’s space between reaction and takes.  It’s not the reactions I’m objecting to, it’s the takes.

I refuse to believe that anyone is making a good faith argument that this video is empowering.  I assume that anyone who pretends to make that argument is solely doing so for stan reasons and the only possible response is to ignore them.

People do seem to be making the lesbian party argument in good faith and I will remain baffled. I do think it’s worth demanding lesbian content that isn’t controlled by men and doesn’t centre them.  But in the meantime I’ll try not to begrudge people their joy, if they’ll at least acknowledge the role men play in this video.
