how remarkable
1. Your fandom has four women on the side of the angels, one on the side of the demons and a good half-dozen extra on either side with bit parts. You're challenged to write 'women saving the day'. Do you:
a. write any of the five main women doing just that,
b. write one of the bit parts,
c. write about a female cat clawing the face off the one bad woman,
d. write about the women having to manipulate the men into saving the day,
e. write about Avon's Magic Cock.
Answers on a postcard, please.
2. When called on it, do you:
a. ask if the person just can't take a joke,
b. explain that the cat is female, and the challenge didn't specify 'women' (it did, in the 'women saving the day' bit. cats do not equal women),
c. explain that cats are JUST LIKE HUMANS, and so it's totally ok,
d. completely miss the point regarding disfiguring the face of a woman with glee.
e. all of the above.
3. It pisses me the fuck off that in a fandom where there are so many women to choose from, the response to 'women saving the day' has been, in general, to write about Avon's magic cock and cats.
Let's be clear, here, IT DOES NOT SURPRISE ME. Fandom (all fandoms) worship the penis and routinely sideline the women. It's just disappointing when it's Blake's 7 fandom.
4. On another note entirely, if you think Rodney McKay is smarter than Samantha Carter, you're an idiot.
