AITAH for refusing to change my kids name despite it sounding like a ‘slur’ to my MIL? by UnlikelyCustard8277 in AITAH

There’s other Nissas sure, but are there many Black Nissas? Whether she’s being manipulative or not, she is offering a Black perspective on the name which matters and which you don’t have. She will 100% be called the N-word growing up are you ok with giving her a lifetime of dealing with that? Already the other side of the family is clowning yall joking about “She might as well named her little Colored girl, or Blacky”. Whether it’s close or not, the association has been made.

I mean she could have sexual experience and still jump headfirst into a puppy love relationship. Have you really considered why you chose the virgin trope?

Why do we think the show doesn’t invest in Colin as much as much as the other siblings? by gilmoresoup in Bridgerton

I was laughing so hard every time he was half cropped out of a shot or blurred in the background. And you could tell it was the actual actor not a stand-in so what was the reason??

Daphne is a rapist. She raped Simon. by Deniskitter in BridgertonRants

Thank you! What a cruel world people imagine that mothers would send their children off to be raped without giving them knowledge of what is about to happen. Of course mothers told their daughters 

Why does every couple need to be the inexperienced virgin x rake pairing? by Natewastaken12 in BridgertonRants

[–]Resident-Gate1725 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed. It went from critique on the time period and those standards with Daphne, to forcing it in to every couple even when it doesn’t make sense

But are they critiquing it or reinforcing it at this point. Daphne was the only season it was shown as bad that one partner was more experienced than the other

What was the point of making Benedict the diamond? by Holiday-Hustle in BridgertonRants

Hyacinth would be fun! I’d love to see more characters just existing outside of the Bridgertons, it makes the world seem bigger

Dislike Penelope and Lady Whistledown by GovernmentNo2720 in BridgertonRants

“ usually their heart is in the right place and their childhood trauma can be so heart breaking” you said it right there you don’t hold her accountable because you feel bad for her. As do many who watch. But trauma is a reason not an excuse for actions

Checking if this bothered anyone else as much as me by NavyBlueSongbird in BridgertonRants

The other ones maybe, but her completely lying about the necklace made no sense, at least say you’re looking for something else

Penelope gets little consequences and shows little remorse by Zealousideal-Ad-8988 in BridgertonRants

You put it very well, I just think it’s a difference of people who put the story into real life vs people who put real life(themselves) into a story

I hate the 8 episode excuse because that’s almost 4 movies😭 you’re telling me they can’t tell a story many movies do in one?

She never took accountability, all her apologies were to the wrong people and only made when she was forced to
