A woman not shaving or wearing a dress or wearing makeup or wearing femme clothes or having styled or long hair or caring how she looks or using a masc name or whatever else is actually a neutral thing and not a sign of her being depressed or giving up or being sad or whatever

I’ve seen people talk about this already and do a better job than me but it’s crazy to me how the Hunger Games series started out with a very beautifully written complex female protagonist in Katniss but now it seems to mostly center the male characters of Snow and Haymitch. I really blame SOTR for this, TBOSAS may have had Snow as the narrator but Lucy Gray was central to the story and despite Snow’s obsession with her we still got to see her as a full person with a personality of her own.
It really is sad to me that we don’t get that with Lenore Dove, she seems to exist mostly just as Haymitch’s idea of her that she’s infatuated with. People ack like Haymitch’s love for LD is more wholesome but in my reading he is just as possessive of her as Snow is of Lucy Gray honestly. And he is every bit just loving an idea of her and not really seeming to bother to truly know her as Snow is. I wish we had gotten to see more of her as herself not just his idealization. She deserved better than just existing to serve his plot.
Overall SOTR seems to make Haymitch central in everything and suddenly everything is about him. Katniss’s allies have to have been Haymitch’s allies, her dad has to have been Haymitch’s bestie, Katniss herself has to remind him of Louella. She can’t have shit of her own. Or else everything is about Snow and his inability to get over his situationship. It’s very frustrating. Before SOTR characters like Lucy Gray and Katniss were the heart of the story but now the men are centered instead while Lenore Dove is such a comparatively flat character. And Collins now seems only interested in flattening her female characters into a monolith instead of celebrating what makes each unique.
Honestly it also illuminates an existing tendency in the fandom to be centering male characters over the female ones (Peeta and Finnick are great examples of this happening) but SOTR makes it worse because the narrative actively makes everything about him. I do think despite there being much that was amazing about the first 4 books there was always still misogyny there, there’s plenty to talk about with that, but SOTR just was especially bad and the lack of interesting writing made it more prominent.
Words of my own
i get that americans love their cultural imperialism, but it really does piss me off that june is “international” pride month just because something happened in the united states.
in aotearoa, june isn’t our pride, it’s theirs. marsha p johnson and sylvia rivera are their historical figures, not ours. the phrase that “you owe your rights to Black trans women” is true there, but here we owe our rights to (mostly) Māori historical figures. i have the freedoms i do because of the legacy of an entirely different set of people operating in an entirely different context at entirely different times.
But because of american cultural imperialism, most queer people in Aotearoa don’t even know our own queer history. Carmen Rupe, Ngahuia Te Awekotuku, the Dorian Society, Gillian Laundon, Georgina Beyer, and the Wolfenden Association are some of our queer history. We should know their names! we should know what they did for us! but because of the power of the american imperial machine, we don’t.
our national pride month should be july, the month that the Homosexual Law Reform Act passed in 1986. our two largest cities hold their pride festivals in february and march, respectively. american queer history has very little (or nothing, depending on who you ask) to do with our queer history. anecdotally, from my own queries, queer youth in aotearoa know more about american queer history than our own.
anyway, happy pride, americans. i’m truly sorry that most of you don’t see the negative impact your nation’s culture has on the rest of the world. and to the rest of the world reading this, try searching for your own country and culture’s queer history, don’t accept the american narratives as your own. we deserve our own histories divorced from the cultural hegemony of the USA.
