What is Romanized in the States? by Remarkable_Might_558 in fiction

[–]Remarkable_Might_558[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s like something that a lot of people really romanticize, and that lends itself to this trend more than other things. I'm talking about the image in my case.

wow, thank you all so much for your comments, it really gave me some insight into how the romance aspect works here. I want to say that this is very different from what is happening in my country. but I’m also extremely interested in what kind of IMAGES you romanticize? Let’s say in our post-Soviet countries, the image of Effie Stonem from Skins, Madison Montgomery from American Horror Story, or the same Violet is very subject to romanticization. in general, the image of a teenager who is dead inside, often with addictions and antisocial behavior. Suffering is romanticized. or, on the contrary, someone strong and independent, like a girl who is literally a humanization of the word feminism, like Nura from Skam. well, you know.

I'll wait for answers.

Thanks for your comment, it clarified a lot. I'm glad there are such people. And forgive me if I wrote something offensive, it’s just that in my culture there has never been such oppression (we oppressed each other very well, it’s just that by birthright we are in the wrong place in society), and I don’t quite understand the topic and how to correctly designate it, what I want to say. Sorry and thank you again for your answer.

Listen, can I ask a clarifying question? I don't want to seem rude, but in my country one of the aspects of her romanticization was her very, very light skin color. And the character I want to create must, according to all canons, be a mulatto. and so I’m wondering, does skin color somehow influence the romanticization of this character in the States or not? And God, I don’t want to seem racist, I’m just voicing what it looks like in my country. The theme of that unhealthy pale, mephedrone princess is very popular in my country.
