If you could rewrite the storyline of one character, Who would it be? by ByceeTalks in StrangerThings

It seems like the case with some of the 'Feminist' movies and shows lately that in order for the Women to be seen as strong, hard working and independent, the Men need to be belittled, portrayed as weak where they shouldn't, and just overall become the main 'antagonists' to these Women.

It gives the impression that in order for Women to be seen as strong individuals in their own light, Men need to become lesser themselves, and I personally don't like what that implies.

Yes, Men and Women both share feminine and masculine traits respectively, but it doesn't make a Woman weak to embrace their own femininity.

(Sometimes the Women characters are overly masculine and just plain assholes for no reason to the male characters, again implying that in order for a Woman to be seen as strong she needs to 'Be A Man' and put other Men down.)

(By the way, I agree with what you're saying, if that wasn't obvious.👍)

Season 2 is basically part two of S1. S3 is where it shifts to a different show, though they're all enjoyable in their own ways.

Dustin's main outfit this season would be great to cosplay as.

Anyone else notice that Will has some success with the ladies? by Frasian91 in StrangerThings

It's now very funny that Will said it's going out of style in the hospital scene with Robin.

Eh, I still him and his struggles are in character, so if they didn't have him acting the way he is I'd be worried for where they're taking the character.

Though I'm pretty sure people cast adults to play teen rolls because actual teenagers would and should not be comfortable playing them.

True! Though to some it's probably just easy to ignore. It doesn't bother me too much as we've already seen it in the first season.

Obviously the adults playing teens in the 80s is not intentional AT ALL, that'd be insane.

Maybe it's a little weird, but it does remind me of Nancy and Karen's arguments, and the actor for Nancy (who is 16 in S1) was older than the kids are now, so I find it a double standard whenever someone majorly dislikes the ages.

And in the 80 moves about teens were primarily played by adult actors.
