Alicent being a victim to a council of misogynist men being a 'gotcha' moment for some fans really shows their true mentality. This isn't about feminism to these fans, Rhaenyra is just a shield they use to hide their own misogyny with feminism. Otherwise Alicent's circumstances are so clear to even casual watchers (especially in an episode where both her and Rhaenyra have parallel scenes having their council speaking over them). A child bride forced to operate in the patriarchy to protect her kids, that girl getting thrown aside by men, isn't 'payback' or karma.. it's just the patriarchy wheel going on, crushing woman after woman under it. People enjoying Alicent's 'downfall' simply fail to understand the victims of patriarchy or do not care about them (which is why for many of these 'feminists', Rhaenyra's worth is tied to Daemon and not as an individual).
Ok I’m about halfway through Gone Girl, and all I have to say is that it’s making me realize things about myself that I didn’t want to realize 😃 (Still a 10/10 book though).
saw someone point out that at times, Alicent acts more like an older sibling to her children, rather than having the typical parent-child dynamic (obviously bc she had them so young). and that got me thinking about how none of her relationships in the show feel typical. Her relationship with Otto has always felt more like a "partner" dynamic (bc he's always used her as such), and her relationship with Viserys feels more like parent and child at times (bc of the obvious age gap). Gwayne is more like a stranger to her rather than a sibling (from what we've seen so far).
all of what are supposed to be Alicent's most important relationships have been twisted into something completely different.
I mean I love Will and Dustin but the lack of mention of Lucas in this post-
will and dustin are the best party members so true
POV: You are Will Byers
Once again, I have to remind everyone that a 14 year old girl was effectively pimped out to an old man by her father, then she was forced into giving birth to 4 children while experiencing consistent marital rape.
This isn’t Alicent’s first time experiencing misogyny, she has been a victim of it her whole life.
However, people in this fandom love to jump on the “hating Alicent” bandwagon without applying any level of critical thinking so they’ll have you believe that a child bride is the main villain on the show.
Trans lesbians are lesbians :)
Like and reblog if your account is a safe space for trans lesbians. It feels like trans lesbians in particular get shamed and ridiculed a lot by people in and out of the community. If you’re reading this I want to let you know you’re valid and I hope your safe and doing well.
