[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I haven't seen it, but I'm kind of offended that a girl who is nerdy and not conventionally beautiful has to get shoved into the queer box to make sense to people. [/quote]
Dude, THIS! As a nerdy, awkward woman who has struggled to embrace herself, I always identified with characters like Velma, Nymphadora Tonks, and Brienne of Tarth. Guess who felt erased and gaslit when people started "claiming" those characters as non-binary or genderqueer or whatever? People actually tried to cancel both Rowling and GRRM for not making Tonks and Brienne non-binary. Its offensive to me.

Tonks and Brienne were both hot and bad-ass; I think Velma had more room to be made sort of ‘non-conforming’ but this is just so overdone and absurd.[/quote]

Yeah, why does she need to be "non-conforming." Some of us really are nerdy, plain, and in some pain (especially early in life) because men are less likely to notice us. Don't assume we're queer if we're not that pretty!!! That hurts.[/quote]
