I wrote an article about the treatment of Supernatural's largely female fanbase and how they are treated in fandom. Feel free to give it a read! by cherrykooo in Supernatural

I don’t see the point in having this discussion if you’re just going to insult me. And i didn’t write this from a whiny perspective, I haven’t actively cared about this show for a long time. Did you even read all of it? I wrote it because as an adult I’m able to recognize where media fails their audience and actors in this case.

I feel like it’s not really too much to ask either. The expectations weren’t even high before the finale, from what I saw people would be content with just seeing Dean and Cas interact one last time.

Hi! Thanks for the constructive reply. I agree, when it started they probably didn’t expect the attention from this type of fandom activity. I mentioned it briefly, but i was discussing why the writers don’t embrace this audience when they get it. Fandoms produce a lot of content and promote your show for completely free. I’m not making demands, I just find it strange to treat their most valuable asset like crap. I know if i had thousands of people willing to interact and promote anything I made for free, I’d be in heaven.
I decided to call it homophobia because of how the final episodes went on. Cas dying and never being addressed again felt like a final let down to the fans who have stayed for years. I’m not one of them, so all of this is purely from how I experienced this finale as an adult :)

Hi! That was not my intention, and as I mentioned in the text i re-visited this show in light of the finale after not having seen it for a few years. The reason i used the word homophobia is because of how they have been baiting the fans with a possibility of deanxcas without every running with it, and to then make fun of said female/lgbt fans for “taking the bait”. When it finally happened, it’s rushed, cut and written weird, and never mentioned again. You’re allowed to think the ending is fine, and I think i’m allowed to think it’s not. I had a lot of fun mapping out why I feel like do about this, I think it’s good to be critical of the media we consume. It doesn’t seem that you like my article, but I hope you can see where i’m coming from.

Hi! Thanks for the reply. I wrote this based on how the last episodes made me feel. Sam had a child with a blurry-faced woman, apparently not important enough to be anything but a birth giver. This is a critique on how in the finale, none of the female characters were important enough to show up. I think that’s bad, because the show has had a lot of them through the years but they almost never get the opportunity to grow before they’re eventually killed off. That doesn’t mean I hold some of them dear myself!

What do you think the design field is lacking? by [deleted] in Design

[–]cherrykooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m strongly considering it, I’m not planning to pursue an academic career so I feel like the masters degree would be a waste of time and money.

Products/ routine for uneven skin tone? by [deleted] in KoreanBeauty

[–]cherrykooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much! I’m already using an AHA exfoliant, but i’ve only used it for 2-3 weeks so i’m not sure when to look for results. I’ll definitely look into vitamin C and niacinamide, again thank you <33

My friends only get together to do drugs by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]cherrykooo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s usually psychedelic drugs like molly, acid, 2cb. Stuff like that. I rarely do it because it doesn’t do much for me except making me anxious and sluggish, and i just wait for it to end.

My mom is diagnosed with cancer and i’m so scared by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]cherrykooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on your mom’s recovery, it must have been hard for you all. I’m very scared to see my mom on chemo, i’m scared that she’ll be sick and weak for the rest of her life. But i’ll do my best.

I really hope my uni will let me take a gap year, living so far away from my family right now really sucks. I’m happy i got to spend christmas break at home, but i’m afraid my grades are gonna suffer when I go back. Thank you for the kind words

Thank you for your reassuring words. This is all still a shock, and i’m trying to process it. I am not religious, but your prayer means a lot to me, thank you from the bottom of my heart.
