The thing that gets me about making toph more traditionally feminine is the way it’s being treated as if toph has some sort of weird internalized misogyny for being too masculine when like, there is a whole episode dedicated to her and katara doing traditionally feminine stuff together and having a fun day. It’s not like she rejects everything fem it’s just those things aren’t really toph’s preferred way to have fun so of course she only really does it once in a blue moon.

#also not to mention the weird way that plays into her wanting to be seen as more than her blindness #atla #rant #probably doesn’t make sense I might reword it later (I won’t)#toph beifong #also let tomboys have their representation not every female character needs to be overtly feminine #might need to rewatch ATLA to further dissect this
