nothing can ever hurt me more than
“See Micheal? See what happens?”
“What happens when what?”
“I’m the only one that’s acting normal here, I’m the only one that cares about Will”
Bitches will find a fictional man attractive and then immediately imagine him in situations where he is losing alarming amounts of blood
"A central element of this trope is the female character's ignorance, which allows the male protagonist to adopt a teacher-like role, guiding her in social norms and romantic interactions."
"He instructs her on socially acceptable behavior and guides her in romance and sex, despite lacking any qualifications beyond being the first person she becomes close to, leading her to idolize and fall in love with him."
"This dynamic, frequently described as "mansplaining," stems from deep-seated male insecurities about sex and relationships."
"Meanwhile, the female character, characterized by her naivety, falls for him simply because he exhibits basic human behavior, which she lacks."
"Despite their innocence, these characters often excel in areas like combat or intellect, appealing to heterosexual male audiences."
"While these characters often serve as heroines, their portrayal perpetuates harmful stereotypes about female innocence and male dominance. McIntosh's video highlights the prevalence of the trope in various films, exposing its underlying sexism and paedophilic implications."
"McIntosh argues that the Born Sexy Yesterday trope reveals deep male insecurities regarding sex and relationships, reflecting a desire to control female identities and a fear of female agency."

Robin fully thinks that Dustin is a dog that was sent to obedience school and not a human child that went to summer camp because Steve talks about him like:
Steve, sighing wistfully: I just miss the little guy, you know?
Robin: ?
Steve, right after servicing ice cream to a guy: That’s my mailman. Dustin fuckin’ hates that guy. Goes crazy when he sees him.
Steve: *does not elaborate on Dustin’s long standing feud with the postal service*
Steve: My parents are actually kinda happy that’s he’s gone. They think he’s loud.
Robin, thinking of her neighbor’s dog: Yeah, they’re like that.
Steve: And the jumping, they hate that.
Steve: - bunch of chocolate. Got an upset stomach and threw up.
Robin: They can’t have chocolate.
Steve: Yeah, I know. He’ll throw up!
Steve: Dustin’s coming back next week. I think I’m going to get him a welcome back gift. Got any ideas?
Robin: Something that squeaks?
Boy, walking up to the counter: Hi
Robin: Hi
Boy: I’m Dustin
Robin, internally: *no one can ever know any of my thoughts ever*
reading the goldfinch isn't enough I need to become an alcoholic
Robin’s not the one that introduces the kids to an actual queer community. It’s not Eddie or Jonathan either.
It’s Steve casually saying he was going to a concert in Indianapolis over the weekend and the kids demanding to know what band and if they could come.
Only for the band NOT to be some cookie cutter Tears for Fears wannabe. But it’s instead a small punk band full of very outwardly queer individuals who put on exaggerated costumes and characters for the show and are raising money for charity.
Will stares in awe.
Lucas is a little lost but he has the spirit.
Dustin cries at one of the songs/monologues.
Mike avoids eye contact with anyone.
And the lead singer flirts with Steve a little too long, singing directly in his face.
is this about my oc’s and their band? Well yes.
Thought about my oc in a different fandom than usual and oh god please save me PLEASE I SWEAR THEY CAN LEARN TO BE A TEENAGER IN THE 80’S I SWEAR I- *I scream, kicking as I get dragged into a padded room*
moved in with lesbians and thayre making me watch mha

i want to get all might pregnant
