Unpopular Opinion: Every time a black female character (especially if this black female character is dark skinned) enters into a relationship with the popular fan-favorite white male character usually one of three things happen a. the black female character is now headcanoned as a lesbian (never bisexual or queer or anything that would leave the character with the possibility of still entering into a relationship with a man) b. white male character is now shipped with other popular fan-favorite white male character/other white female character (the popular fan-favorite white male character is usually headcanoned to be bisexual and when he is, shipped with a woman that woman is always white) or c. black female character (and sometimes their actresses) is now being talked about as if they are the devil himself.
Wanting characters to explore their sexuality is fine but I always find it odd how this always happens when one member of the relationship is a black/blackish woman. *forgot to mention the suddenly polyamorous relationship the three (black female, white male and white male/woman) characters are now without a doubt in*
Anon you spoke nothing, but facts right here 🙌🏽
(The only thing I’d add is that they don’t just do this when the woman in question is with a white man, see Namor and Shuri and the backlash some shippers got for shipping them).
You aren’t the only one who has been noticing this trend.
I say trend loosely because really just a new stereotype to add to the bunch😒
It would be one thing if it was a want for actual representation, but every time now like clockwork. as soon as they see a Black woman who looks like she’s going to have a romantic arc with said popular fandom man, boom she must be gay😑
Hell, it’s getting so bad that these shows/movies are automatically just writing their Black women characters in that way.
If people can’t see how this can be harmful/dangerous, that’s cool, but anytime you want to paint all of a group a certain way and won’t show them in any other setting, that’s how you end up birthing new stereotypes.
This isn’t creating diversity. It’s limiting it(once again).
It’s so all or nothing with our media representation. Black women don’t want to be shown as one thing(which seems to go right over most people’s heads).
We just want the same opportunities as everybody else and not to be put into one or two narrow boxes of acceptable characterization that doesn’t threaten the status quo(aka you can't have Black women looking desirable especially not when there is an available white woman right there next to her).

i'm thinking about a post archon quest time where furina is getting courted by wriothesley (he still sends her high quality tea, now to her apartment instead of the palais) and she goes with it now (because she's lonely and confused and finally human and he's one of the very few people who weren't directly involved in her trial, so there's comfort and escapism in that) and all their secret meetups getting heavily rained on (because neuvillette doesn't handle seeing her with another man all that well) and this leading to some messy neuvifurisley full of pining and complicated feelings and history

I'm opening for commissions!
I can draw in Rick and Morty style, Hazbin style and Sonic style or my own combination style.
So in terms of prices,
$15 USD for just lineart, 20 USD if it's a full body shot
$25 USD for full color, 30 USD if it's a full body shot
$35 USD for full color and shading, 40 USD if it's a full body shot
$45 USD for a full color, shading and background, 50 USD if it's a full body shot
prices are doubled if you want more than one character.
Once we've discussed it, I'll send my paypal if I'm okay with the project. REMEMBER, YOU'RE PAYING FOR MY WORK, SO LOOK AT MY ART BEFORE COMMISSIONING!

she seems half-broken. hardly bows to her betters—and those insolent eyes.

Honestly, why is my gut instinct telling me KingOhger actually has the most perfect setup for a Rita Corruption Arc...?
I don't want ittttttt 😭😭😭😭😭
I love corruption arcs, but I don't want it for my little purple baby who just wants to chill and watch "Me and Moffun"!
