To be fair, this trope can work, but most times it just devolves into the dad being possessive (which as a woman i find uncomfortable most times) and treating the daughter like a prize to be earned through impression. I think the most egregious uses of this trope is when (1/2)
@LovesEevees
The dad tries to purposefully sabotage the relationship because it always feels very controlling and unjustified when the boyfriend is just a regular guy in a regular relationship. I've seen a few good uses of the trope, but ya gotta wane through the many bad examples first (2/2)
@DeludedPhobes
I think the distinction people forget is that "being trans" and reasons like "having the wrong genitals" are different things, especially in this case. If you dont wanna date a trans person because they dont have the genitalia your attracted to, cant have a desired future (/1)
@ArtofLostandCan
Someone fr woke up one day and said to themselves
"I need to make a sitcom
And it needs
To feature

And probably had to present that to a network with a completely professional attitude
@RiseFallNickBck
Wheres that one gumball joke where its like
Gumball: Uh...mom...*points to a real cat*
Nicole: I know sweetie, dont think about it too much.
@DeludedPhobes
With them due to their limitations (ie a straight man not wanting to date a mtf because they cant have biological children together), or any other reason, that's perfectly okay. Preferences are very real, and it's healthy to be honest about them. But refusing to date someone (/2)
Simply BECAUSE they are transgender is transphobic, because you aren't dating them solely on the idea that they might not be cisgender. "I cant date you because your transgender" and "i can't date you because im not attracted to penises" are very different things. They just (/3)
@LovesEevees
After thought: I actually think Gumball used this trope pretty decently. Mr Fitzgerald can get grating in certain episodes but I think his skepticism is pretty warranted because the show clearly and repeatedly clarifies that the Watterson family is a (1/2)
@LovesEevees
Massive problem creator that has caused thousands to millions in damages to their town alone, so Mr Fitzgerald being weary about his daughter dating a Watterson, much less the rambunctious son of the family, is a very justified reaction from a character pov (2/2)
Both happen to be because the person in question is transgender, but the second one has a more reasonable and non identity-based reasoning behind it.
(Identity as in trans and cis, not as in female, male, enby, etc, just to clarify)
(/4, End of thread lol)
your dog and cat do not "love" you. they are animals who are food and comfort-motivated and/or have been bred to be affectionate. they are not capable of human emotion. nor should you expect them to be ♥️
@mattxiv
Do cishets not know that "pink is so feminine and girly and sexy and attractive" is like a uniquely human stereotype. Pink birds would like...be instant food for predators. Plus, male birds are almost always the colorful ones.
I feel bad for the SMG4 crew because no matter what they do with the webseries, the cards aren't in their favor. They create what they want, the youtube algorithm screws them over. They create what'll trend, and they get harassed by people saying it fell off. They can't win.
@TakesAppalling
Also they know that "chopping off your tits" procedure is used by cis women too, right? They're called masectomies, and often used to help breast cancer patients. If a masectomy makes you mutilated, he just not only insulted trans men, but also any victim of breast cancer.
Only twitter can find a way to bitch about this scene oh my god
"Erm, whats the implication of having your cast be minority characters in HELL"
Godforbid Viv wants to add representation to her shows, something she used to do BEFORE her shows took place in Hell too
Hello. Fat person here. Criticize vivziepop designs all you want, they are flawed in some ways, but how about we DONT make the literal embodiment of gluttony be overweight. How about we STOP perpetuating stereotypes.
@zegro_
No offense but like i kinda get it. I live in an area where theres like fuck-all to do, and anything fun costs money or is a drive away. Factoring in social anxiety and having the attention span of cracked out puppy its just like- man its really not that easy lol
Im bored lets have fun lmao
SMG4 shipping tournament based on ships I've seen through the years in this fandom. Lets see what my fellow SMG4 fans see as the best ship
Starting with the left side of the stage!
Polls down below ⬇️
Anything thats a cat: *exists*
SMG4 fans: IS THIS WHISK!? IS SHE RELATED TO WHISK!?
Not making fun of y'all but jesus christ not everything is a callback lmao. Cats are a common species to base things off and Karen acts just like one personality-wise
Its called character design
@thatbennybee
Sometimes she has a point in terms of arcs in shows getting rushed and that sometimes they redeem the wrong people but i feel like she exaggerates so much to where its just ridiculous. Ive watched her videos, and it goes from "hey an actual critique" to "what the actual fuck"
So this is completely random but
I never personally watched TechnoBlade since most Minecraft content didnt appeal to me. But he really touched the hearts of a lot of people, including some of my close friends. I also know the pain of cancer given my mother also has stage four
@Vallender5
@TakesAppalling
Oh definitely. Theres 100% women out there who think men cant be aroace and view them as sex machines, and that is equally as terrible.
You know the only thing i dislike about the critical part of the SMG4 fandom is how loosely people throw around the term "Mary Sue" towards women characters and never elaborate
Mary Sue isn't a criticism in of itself, please elaborate on why you think that or what the problem is
Finished the sketch over a walten files song lmao
Only took me multiple hours because my brain just wouldn't cooperate
Also I love ponytail Meggy can we have more ponytail Meggy
Actually give them all ponytails. And ones with ponytails, let their hair down
I watched a video about TADC and this guy said "i hope it doesn't get cancelled like Meta Runner.." like my dude what, meta runner wasnt cancelled, it ran its course, told its story, and went on its merry way, where did you get that it was cancelled?
This is fun
Anyways, the shipping tournament! One or two of these are getting competitive out here, it seems. Luckily, two contenders get to sit this one out due to my blazing incompetence. Good luck to the rest.

Hi I'm making a callout thread because I'm really sick of this person and they've been really fuckin shady

@TakesAppalling
Im not an archeologist or anything but if i were to dig up a skeleton, my immediate thought would not be "did this person have a COCK?????"
@BoneJanky
Would it be wrong of me to somehow think this spawns from the weird purity culture we have, especially on the internet? I cant articulate words at to why, i just feel like it has some roots there.
I was making vent art and decided to scrap it because I've complained enough about the US committing human atrocities but I accidentally made the best doodle of myself in the process

@yeahitsrae
To be fair, i kind of get what most of the people are probably trying to say (that being that some of the relationships dont feel natural and feel heteronormative) but just posting bi/pan characters in opposite gender relationships without elaboration is definitely gonna look bad
I can't think of a numerical way to put this but I like Tari because she's different. Idk, I think the reason I like her comedy is because it relies less on memes or funny faces and more on her anxiety filled reactions to the bullshit around her.
This movie is gonna be another mid ass remake and instead of collectively blaming Disney for being corporate shills, this poor actress is gonna get the brunt of the hate and harassment just because of her skin color. I feel so bad for her.
Therefore I'm starting an Avianverse spinoff called "Saiko's Stupid Sketch Segment" where I can not only cover more questions but explore the world better while doing so!
I hate this type of trailer. It doesnt tell you anything about the film, doesn't give a glimpse of anything meaningful, it just flashes you some highlight moments like jingling plastic keys and then shows the logo
I feel like ONLY tiktok ppl have the attention spans to enjoy this
@TrnsShenanigans
Reading this made my skin crawl as a cis woman wtf like is that all he cares about? "They'll go into menopause early" ok?? People can adopt or just not have kids?? And why is their first excuse always "they cant have babies" like im sorry but thats not my sole purpose as a woman?
My least favorite Digital Circus criticism tbh
I see where it comes from but sometimes when people say this im like "the stakes are right there, what, do you want Caine to be this eldritch entity out to torture them for his gain and threatens to abstract them every 5 seconds?"
I sent the tablet back and I'm getting basically the same model I currently have, not sure why I didn't do that the first time around lmao
I don't wanna do anything big until I get it so
Have this fuckin lesbian moth I designed for a friend lmao
Lets talk or something im tired lmao. Ask questions, say hi, tell me about your day, or put down hilarious-reaction-image-47,935, whatever floats your boat lol
