It's really amazing how much old shoujo anime...
cosmicotton:
the top three most popular are all about gender roles.
Honest they are amazing. out of the three Princess knight (obviously) my favorite touches almost every issue or concern you can think of about what the stereotypical role of a male and female is and prejudice against them both and love in all directions
why do more people not read/watch them

Repeat after me: I can love things and still find them problematic. I can love things and still find them problematic.
I CAN LOVE THINGS AND STILL FIND THEM PROBLEMATIC.

And then Stockholm was like: We have 100 000 moneyz to give to a cultural thingy of our choice. I KNOW, LETS GIVE THEM TO THE SWEDISH HOUSE MAFIA. THEY MUST BE IN NEED OF MORE CHAMPAGNE AND HELICOPTERS.
Our you could have given them to someone who actually needs the money.
#stockholm - the capital of stupid
Stockholm is taking a stand for culture and creativity by...
queerlitsuperhero:
it is never just a show
it is never just a book
it is never just a movie
it is never just a comic
The way we treat characters in media reflects the ideas we have about real people, and then our media goes on to enforce how we treat those real people.
I am all for enjoying the media I consume (and contrary to how it must look, I do enjoy a lot of media) but I am critical...

Really? How? I don’t think I want to start checking it more often, in that case. (Well, ok, I know how. That scene kind of bugs me too, but it was the 70s. I doubt Ikeda meant the scene that way.)
Think of it this way, if Ikeda wanted the audience to hate him, she would make him as bad as Oscar’s...

Dear synthpop,
why must you be so full of white guys and references to fascist ideologies?
And why must so many of your fans be neoliberals?
Yours Sincerely

So apparently Katy Perry’s obsession with Japanese people has reached new heights. On an appearance on the Jimmy Kimmel show on Monday, she stated ”I’m so obsessed I want to skin you and wear you like Versace”. This is…
I need a new tv-series to watch, or twenty. I’m so bored I am watching Buffy again. ;;;
Where is the girly podcast about comics? WHERE IS SAILOR MOON AND BATWOMAN AND WHERE ARE THE LESBIANS?
Why are all comics podcasts by guys who joke about shota and how they can’t get a girlfriend and HAHA SO MANRY. Urgh.

Finished reading “Are You My Mother?” by Alison Bechdel today. Now I am going to have wait until tofslan has read it too, so that we can talk about it, which will probably not be until SOMETIME TOMORROW. IT HAS VIRGINIA WOOLF REFERENCES, OKAY?
So far I have coped with the anxious wait by sitting next to her while she reads in order to fidget annoyingly in her direction. I have also...

"The Fetishizing of Queer Sexuality." →
There are many problems with slash but this text misses the mark. For example it is completely untrue that all slashers are straight women. Many slashers are men, gay, non-binary, queer and so on. And the statement that slash is inherently disrespectful to gay male couples… IDEK. There is plenty of offensive, terrible slash. There is no need to say that it’s all bad, cause that is...

reuenthalseyeliner replied to your post: Rose of Versailles and LOGH ?
Oh yeah, basically agree on all of RoV (I have to finish that); Also, LOGH, yes, Frederica, I would marry her happily; oh wow, finally someone agrees, Julian’s my least favourite too; only disagree slightly on the Reinhard thing, but I understand why
You do have to finish Rov, it’s the best!
Sorry about Reinhard....
