sometimes family is you, your husband, your edgy narrative foil that your husband used to have a thing for, your narrative foil’s wife who you never see bc she’s too busy killing human traffickers, your one random friend who flirts with everyone and won’t shut up about waffles, and your random friend’s dead husband who’s haunting the narrative

Trying to figure out which fandom this was without looking at the tag was absurdly amusing

Last night I dreamt that I was in production for Bridgerton and I found out that Michaela had been recast as a white woman and I was devastated by this change. Then Masali Baduza appeared and I was overjoyed to see her so I begged her to play Michaela again so don’t worry guys I have everything handled for the upcoming season

“…all of Oxford shone like an illumination, and he was falling in love.”

I can’t explain how much I love these two ❤️‍🩹

[wereokarentwemoony]

So THATS why I loved Marissa Meyer so much. She’s written fanfic

I don’t know who needs to hear this but I’ve had several friends who needed this message and I want to stop people from making mistakes, but relationships are supposed to make you happy. You should feel supported. You should enjoy kissing them. If you are dreading spending time with your significant other, break up with them. Being single feels so great and there are better people out there, I promise. Never settle. You should be happy.

Inej: This is your first fight? Stay with me, I'll get you through this without a scratch

i don't think eloise bridgerton hates other women, especially not her sisters. i think she loves other women. i think she's very aware of the society in which they live and she sees how it hurts all of them. i think, especially when it comes to her sisters, she sees their potential and knows that society will never allow them to fulfill it. francesca is a talented pianist who will never be able to study music because she's a girl. hyacinth is funny and clever and vibrant and so young, she has the whole world ahead of her, but she's being taught that all that should matter to her is table settings and spoons and the opinions of men. they've all been taught that their ultimate purpose in love is to give men children. francesca already thinks there's something wrong with her and she's a failure because she's not a mother. eloise sees that there's so much to all of them than that and she hates that that's all they're restricted to.

ao3 asking if i want to see mature content. do i want to see birds in the sky. do i want to feel the wind in my hair and the grass under my feet

[aerithisms]

i actually cannot yet bear to discuss francesca saying "it is my fault. i cursed it" about her infertility because thinking about her having that much hatred for herself for wanting michaela and for her body not being able to do the things she wants it to do and connecting those things in her mind as if the perceived deviance of her infertility is punishment for the perceived deviance of her sexuality is tearing my heart open

[wereokarentwemoony]

Oh my god don’t make me think about the fact that when she learned she was more likely to get pregnant if she was also reaching her pinnacle, she realized that SHE was the problem for not being attracted enough to John. Poor Francesca has so much self blame 😭😭😭

[star-pocalypse]

Eloise and Benedict's dynamic is both so important and so, so sad to me because like, here are two siblings, both second-born, both have great passion, and both want something greater than the conventional life their society is offering them, they are the only two people that truly seem to understand each other, and so they really only have each other to confide in

But the thing is that Benedict is ultimately allowed to have what he wants, he gets to study art, he gets to be a rake, and explore his sexuality, he gets to marry below his station, and he gets to explore who he is, and what he wants, and nobody stops him

And then you have Eloise, who gets... none of that

While the show allows Benedict to explore who he is outside of the confines of the ton, the show—and the fandom—punishes Eloise anytime she tries to do anything that is not expected of her

She enjoys writing? Violet belittles her interests and the show absolutely refuses to allow her to pursue this

She attends political rallies? She is outed to the ton, and her entire political plotline is dropped

She falls in love with a working class man, who is literally the only person in the show who actually cares to hear what she thinks? Penelope sabotages that relationship to stop Eloise from finding out her Whistledown secret

Eloise doesn't want to get married? Violet is going to punish her for it, and when Eloise is upset about it, the show is going to demonize her, and make her apologize for not loving the tradwife lessons being forced on her

Eloise wants to be a spinster? Violet is going to punish her, and the show is going to make it seem as though what Eloise wants is ridiculous, isolating, and lonely, as if there weren't societies for spinsters as 25% of noble women in that era remained unmarried

The show lets Benedict be different, it lets Benedict explore who he is, and it rewards his unconventionality

But Eloise? She is insulted, and belittled, and constantly beaten down by everyone around her, so that when becomes a man's live-in bangmaid and stepmother to children she never wanted, the audience sees it as plausible because she's now a shell of the woman she once was

This isn't character development, this is literally a twisted alt-right fantasy of leftist/childfree women being 'fixed' by a man and conforming to societal norms, becoming tradwives because their feminism and independence was really just a byproduct of how lonely they really were or some bullshit like that

The fact that the show used essentially the same archetype for two of its main characters, but the man is rewarded for the very same traits that his female counterpart is consistently punished and humiliated by the narrative for displaying is very telling of the writers mentality, and how they view feminist/childfree women

i keep thinking about how gender-swapping francesca’s love interest reframes her infertility story in a way that hits so much harder than in the books.

francesca re-enters the marriage mart not because she is chasing some great, all-consuming love, but because she has a very specific dream about becoming a mother. so she’s practical about it. in a lot of ways, she’s searching for a co-parent more than a soulmate.

but then she falls in love with michaela.

and suddenly the life she carefully planned for herself — the one that felt achievable and safe — is no longer compatible with the kind of love she’s found. and suddenly she’s faced with a choice: does she hold onto the future she always imagined, the one where she becomes a mother? or does she choose great, romantic love, even if it means letting that dream go?

to me, this feels like a much more truthful way to tell a story about infertility.

because the truth is, infertility is not just about wanting a baby and eventually getting one. for so many people, that’s not how it ends. so many people struggling with infertility have to sit with the grief that the family they thought they would have isn’t going to happen. and so they have to learn to imagine a future that looks completely different, and still find meaning and joy in it.

and i think there’s something really powerful in letting francesca’s story go in that direction — letting her discover that her worth isn’t tied to becoming a mother. that her life can still be full, and rich, and meaningful, even if it doesn’t look the way she always planned.

BRIDGERTON, YOU HAVE MORE TIME TO CHANGE ELOISE'S STORY. NOW IS THE TIME TO DROWN PHILIP

[wereokarentwemoony]

Bridgerton writers, don’t force Eloise into an unwanted marriage and you will be reincarnated as a lotus flower 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
