rjalker: akumatizedpuns:rjalker: [ID: A gif from Miraculous Ladybug, showing Marinette as Ladybug saying angrily to the camera, “Gross! You’re not Adrien! He would never be so pushy!”“That’s Felix, Adrien’s cousin!” Adrien as Chat Noir says from offscreen. Marinette turns to look, surprised, and Adrien is shown standing on a railing as Chat Noir.Above Marinette’s head, large text reads, “Marinette: The real Adrien would never violate my boundaries!”Above Adrien’s head, the text reads, “The real Adrien who does that exact thing in every single episode: *appears*”.End ID.]The writers saw all of us criticizing Adrien sexually harassing Marinette at least once every single episode and created this scene specifically to ‘’debunk’’ it……while giving us the most fucking ironic scene in the entire show.The only episode I can think of off the top of my head where Adrien doesn’t sexually harass or assault Marinette one way or another is Gamer, and I might be forgetting something. This show has three full seasons and the fourth is still airing. And I can only think of one episode where he doesn’t sexually harass her.The writers want us to think he respects her, but they don’t actually want to have him treat her with respect. Because they’re 45 year old cis straight white men who think sexually harassing women is funny and romantic, so they are never going to have Adrien’s behavior change, they’ll just keep pretending that he respects her, without ever once ever having him actually treat her with genuine respect.For fuck’s sake, they literally have him admit out loud to her face just to upset her that the only reason he shows up to fights is to harass her and upset her because he thinks upsetting her is funny.These writers are such fucking misogynyists they think having the victim say her abuser respects her makes the abuse magically disappear. Sexual assault?? Please stop using words that aren’t applicable. It invalidates actual victims of sexual assault. Bold of you to assume I’m not a fucking victim of sexual assault -.-And no, you fucking idiot, calling out misogyny that is being used to teach kids that sexual harassment and assault is okay does not “invalidate” victims of these things.You know what actually invalidates and oppresses victims of sexual harassment and assault? 45 year old men writing shows aimed at kids that are doing everythng they can to teach those kids that this kind of behavior is okay.People like you, caring more about defending fictional characters’ reputations more than you do the actual harm this show is causing to its viewers.Get the fuck off my blog and don’t come back. I am so fucking sick of you people acting like sexual harassment and assault is okay as long as it’s a fictional billionaire white boy doing it. Fuck off. Immediately.This show is teaching kids that Adrien Agreste’s behavior is not only normal and okay, but admirable and something to emulate. This show is teaching kids that violating someone’s boundaries over and over and over again is not only normal, but something good you should do, because how else are you going to get them to stop denying their feelings for you and just admit they’re in love with you and have been the entire time???? /SARCASM.Adrien stans fuck the hell right off. People who think it’s okay for this show to be portraying sexual harassment and assault as good things fuck the hell right off.If you think calling out sexual harassment and assault when it’s portrayed as a good thing “”invalidates actual victims of sexual assault” just shut the fuck up. Stop fucking assuming the people who have a problem with this behavior have never fucking been the victims of this behavior you stupid fucks.If you aren’t an Adrien stan, plese feel free to reblog this version of the fucking post because I am so fucking sick and tired of these people acting like this shit only exists in fiction and like none of us who are criticizing it have any personal fuckign stake in sexual harassment and assault being portrayed as harmless and romantic. As a victim myself, I can say no one is justifying sexual assault. Because Adrien/Chat never sexually assaults Ladybug/Marinette. Not once in this show has he done that. And when did I defend sexual assault itself? Please tell me where that is in my post. I’d love to see it. If anything, Marinette has come closer to sexually assaulting Adrien in that statue scene, and even then, that’s not assault. Harrassment? Perhaps. Assault? Hell no. So yes, you are invalidating actual victims. And Adrien/Chat’s behavior is clearly not condoned. Literally, watch Glaciator 2.0. -- source link
