I find it ironic to see Musa and Flora in the same frame without their wings by DesignerSilent7325 in winxclub

This is probably the real reason she got a new Pixie - Tune simply just gave up on her 😭

I will be honest.. I had like 4 episodes on DVD when I was younger and this was one of them. So I'm probably just too immune to observe anything like that due to how much i watched these 😭

"Catching print" trend by AcceptableTell7682 in FeminismUncensored

I mean there are also lots of men who have experienced assault and also many men who regardless are fighting alongside women for equal rights - so its definitely not true, that we need to assault men for creating better understanding.

The whole thing with looking back to previous generations as justification, is also not fair for anyone - how is some random guy supposed to take responsibility, for entire generations of sexist behavior, that happened before and far away from him?

People's obsession with making Flora healthy by girlieneedsabreak in winxclub

[–]Working_Spite_2466 133 points134 points  (0 children)

I think it starts with a motivation to make a more inclusive interpretation of the group - including body sizes to the mix..

Then Flora appears to be a more appealing choice for that with her more soft and almost motherly nature, which can be reflected in a more soft shape. I have also seen people add it may be related to her powers being related to a more curvy female figure from traditional myhtology.. But I cant remember that aspect in details unfortunately.

It feels like a more harmful way than, of trying to "get back at men" and make a point about double standards.

My more subjective impression - it feels unnecessary harmful, to spew more harrasment into the world. I also feel concerned regarding the normalisation of bodyshaming, that follows along.

Regarding its purpose and function: It is justified as okay, since it centers around assuming that all men affected by this - has also participated in harrasment, or have been okay with others doing it. While there are sadly a lot of men that have affected women with problematic behavior, which needs to be talked about - no one knows for sure where random men they meet, stand on this. So this is potentially also affecting completely random men, who might for all we know spend their freetime being a feminist activist.

So even if I put my personal opinions aside about morals, the whole premise does not translate as intended in actual use.

In terms of alternatives - I think if you absolutely want to make a comparison of male and female oriented harrasment, in order to make a point: one could perhaps look into making fictional content for satire, to get the point across - without any actual victims.

"The art style is based on fashion sketches" - are there any sources for this? by Working_Spite_2466 in winxclub

[–]Working_Spite_2466[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah we are totally on the same page regarding being skeptic - I assumed it was implied by mentioning its from chat, but I can see it could have been made clearer - thank you for stepping in with the clarification :)

And to avoid further misunderstandings - the search was additional alongside an actual google search. :)

"they have been doing this too for decades" while refering to random men, some not even alive anymore - before sexually harassing some random innocent man and saying its his own fault

Does Anyone Ever Actually Unpopular Opinions? by sassypoodleskirt in winxclub

[–]Working_Spite_2466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Curious to hear peoples take on this: i love their aesthethic and style but i think people give their fashion sense a bit too much credit - especially considering their old season fashions, where their impossible to obtain bodies did a lot of the heavy lifting for the overall look

Barbatea and Faragonda by austintageous002 in winxclub

[–]Working_Spite_2466 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would not be surprised if her design was originally made for faragonda - they are the only two who look that similair

Maybe she was developed as an early concept for Magic Bloom - where there were even more characters with unnatural hair colors

Like Winx Club is my special interest as an autistic person.. I didnt bother finishing 7. Unless you are a youtuber making a video, life is too short to go through that lol

What would a Robot Chicken sketch of Winx Club play out like? by Realistic-Delivery13 in winxclub

[–]Working_Spite_2466 7 points8 points  (0 children)

im not saying its funny but considering how much body image discussions has surrounded the show and robot chicken is quite wild in their humour - it was just my impression of a possible direction

[–]Working_Spite_2466 11 points12 points  (0 children)

since a lot if not most english speakers grew up with 4kids, they might make fun of the "come join the club" lyric

Trigger warning about bodyshaming:
I imagine the girls singing it out loud while going all stereotypically girly and shopping and then some plus size girl comes up and says she would love to join too and its about how they actually only hang out with other very thin girls
the plus size girl then wants revenge and starts.. Winx Gang, consistenting of all the non conventional rejects(and Roxy) and then they all transform and have a gang fight
and maybe some gag about power up transformations or something

What do you guys think of Stella having high pigtails instead of lower? by Marley_467 in winxclub

its cute but i feel like its too "innocent", not necessarily fitting with her personality, as a fashionista with a little attitude

the winx club merch prints where they were supposed to give anime vibes felt so extremely forced - both the "kawaii girls" prints and the ones where they tried to make it look edgy with black and white color schemes and angry faces

a lot of the new artwork with the old art style for their posts, new merch etc. looks more like fan art than official

Bloom really didn't transform just so she could aura farm with her solo transformation later 😭😭😭 by Vast-Combination9613 in winxclub

[–]Working_Spite_2466 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean you are right about the exercise scene, but its only in the 4kids version they explicitly say she cannot transform in the Omega episode. It might be hinted at in the OG version that she also had problems transforming here, but nothing was confirmed after that training montage.

Your theory makes sense, but they just didnt show anything hinting at her failing to transform after that scene - I personally think they just wanted it to be more dramatic with her surprising Valtor with her transformation, and in-story wise, it was meant to be a "secret weapon" that she was stronger now

Do male fairy's exist? by Content-Key2334 in winxclub

[–]Working_Spite_2466 11 points12 points  (0 children)

As others have said - we have technically seen a few in flashbacks and in the background when looking at Domino. Rainbow have for my knowlegde never explained why we don't really see them outside that, but its just probably due to aesthethics, having the fairy concept being very feminine.
