#we could have upgraded to ''more famous historic/mythic women presented as capable and awesome''

Wow Fate really went from “This woman lived as a man and had to deal with rampant misogyny because people of her time wouldn’t have accepted her accomplishments if she presented as a woman” to “This famous man is actually their wife’s sister’s second cousin’s work buddy piggybacking off her more successful male counterpart’s fame and is sad about it” you know because #feminism

#nasu is very feminist #not that the genderbends were perfect before #but at least it presented a commentary on sexism and it was a woman doing those things #we could have upgraded to ''more famous historic/mythic women presented as capable and awesome'' #but when they have historic women half the time they're fetishy shit #(rip zenobia you deserved better) #and goghie is good but like she's vincent? she's clytie? she's willemina? fuck it just make an oc at this point
