Being a woman in male dominated fandoms is genuinely hell

Especially in superhero fandoms. Like you genuinely believe that your favorite SUPERHERO (Spiderman, Superman, Captain America, etc.) would approve of you being a raging misogynist?

Sometimes just being a woman in fandom in general is hell. I also started cosplaying in the past year, and am lowkey worried about men possibly being weird to me while I’m cosplaying

idk how literally every man missed the message that friendship/love/connection with other people is what makes you strong and gives life meaning and instead landed on rape jokes. it’s so disappointing and makes the fandom so hostile for no reason :(

The characters don’t act in that manner towards majority of the other characters. It being military propaganda is about showing the military in an overly positive light and showing their actions as necessary and good, not about the characters themselves being bigots

Honestly I’m just assuming what other people are saying about them bc I can only assume they like heroes because of strength rather than personality

I don’t disagree that they are but when doing military/cop propaganda in movies (specifically DC and Marvel) usually it’s through justification of bad actions and harm, not usually the characters personalities and how they treat marginalized groups

Bc men’s interests are inherently deep and venerable but women’s interest are all superficial and trivial. A simple woman couldn’t possibly understand the intricacies of a superhero movie bc then it would lose its value or their superiority complex would fall apart
