i hate the way that “female characters are just not as well written as male characters” persists even after years and years of people pointing out that is simply a bad excuse, that people will rehabilitate a poorly written man and flatten a well written woman time and time again. i hate the way that no one can take this criticism, this simple truth that they are biased against women, and work to slowly dismantle this part of themselves. instead it’s just, there are no good women

My favorite example of this is Fire Emblem Three Houses, where every single character has a backstory that interacts with their socioeconomic status, somewhere between six to ten dialogue trees that are about ten minutes each, a list of liked and disliked foods, gifts, and conversation topics, multiple endings and even different responses to being on different sides of a war… my point is, every character is incredibly fleshed out and well-written if you bother to investigate them.

And there are still people who are writing essays and gushing about the men while flattening every woman to either Waifu or Bitch.

hey idk who needed to hear this but. being able to push yourself to function through pain does not, in fact, make you able bodied

if you were able bodied you wouldn’t be in pain at all. btw.

to be clear it is normal to be sore/have some pain if you’re doing high stress stuff like long runs, exercising, heavy lifting, etc etc. but if you’re in pain because you Walked or Stood Up. that’s not how your body is supposed to work.
