amaresu: Thessaly enjoying a cup of tea (comics-Thessdrink)
[personal profile] amaresu posting in [community profile] fem_thoughts
Femslash Mini Meta fest was an utter fail this year. And I'm still not in a place where I could do it, so I purpose Comment Meta. And let's have it cover all things female and fannish. However you define those.

How it works

1. Post a meta topic in a top level comment. Use the subject line for the meta subject and expand as you want in the body of the comment. Or don't.

2. Repeat Step 1 for as many meta ideas as you have.

3. Comment on other meta topics.


It's kinda like a kink meme, only with meta. Feel free to browse the mini meta tag for ideas.

This is meant to be about as low pressure as it comes. Feel free to write on your own journal/Tumblr/blog and link back here. Respond with as little or as much as you want. This post will remain open indefinitely, so please track it if that makes things easier for you.

Real teenage girls (and I suppose boys) with Bella's personality exist. They deserve to see characters with that personality in fiction because they are human. It doesn't matter that she's passive, or selfish, or whatever people call Bella nowadays. Passive and selfish girls deserve to have stories told about them.

Good point! Not every story needs to be a morality play, and teenagers are allowed to act like teenagers. Which means emotionally immature and confused.

I will confess to not reading any of the Twilight books. But I finally got around to watching the last three films (someday, my library will have the first in) and they're none of them as bad as the mockers say they were. Nor is Bella. She's not really my type of character, but I don't dislike her at all. (I do love Alice and Rosalie, though.)

Yeah, Alice was my favorite. And Leah Clearwater - I haven't seen the movies after the first, but book!Leah is an awesome werewolf girl.

Leah is really amazing in the movies too. She was sadly minor, and you probably shouldn't get me started on werewolf alpha bs, because I could go into huge rants about how it's thinly veiled d/s for the people who don't understand d/s. But I really did love Leah and her struggles and how she refused to let life grind her down.
