Heroes. Noble warrior heroes.

No hate or anything. I kinda get your point with the make-up, but it's really not the characters in-universe decision to wear make-up. It's the directors. Of course Carol could wear make-up if she wanted to. But it doesn't fit her character in that situation. We saw her partying in the bar before she became Vers and she wasn't wearing much make up (If any). And now is literally the apocalypse and she decides to put on evening make-up?! She is practical and doesn't give a damn about this.

The Make Up Polemic

I know I know, and if the context in Endgame gives no proper environment to that, I totally agree like 100% with you. My point is, we still don’t know the context in Endgame.If the heroes got to be there for one entire year, researching, practicing and resting, it would be okay for Carol (and any other female character in the movie) to wear some makeup, they also have the right to do that. A woman should have the right to wear party outfits when partying, war outfits in a war and makeup when she wants to, I know.

Believe me, I’m suuuuper feminist, I was even insulted by others here on this hellsite for being too much feminist.

So, if they’re chilling in Endgame, researching, training and having breaks, I think it’s okay for Carol to wear makeup. We not seeing Carol wear makeup in her movie doesn’t mean she doesn’t like that. Also, being practical doesn’t mean a girl (or a guy) won’t wear makeup or something different (more fancy etc) once in a while. In this sense, it would be completely ridiculous to see Carol full of makeup and sexy outfits to go fighting in combat. In her movie (I LOVED IT AND I WON’T CHANGE MY MIND :3) we only see her fighting, training and in tense moments and the flashback bar moment is just one moment, we can’t define that much, and it’s a very casual moment.

BY THE OTHER HAND

If the context in Endgame shows itself as conflicting from beginning to ending, without a time gap enough for the characters to train, work and take breaks (have time for themselves), then I agree with you ABSOLUTELY!

We also should consider Kevin Feige and the other main producers and directors do take part in meetings and important decisions that will affect other Marvel movies (Doctor Strange, Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Guardians of the Galaxy) so they will have congruence with the central ones (Avengers, Civil War). In other words, I believe the Captain Marvel we saw in her movie first was “accepted” by the main producers (and it had the directors involved, at least in opinions) before making it to the final product.

ALSO

Just like in the comics, we have this phase in which Carol Danvers REDISCOVERS her humanity. We see in her movie how Carol is walking and acting like a typical Kree soldier (not a woman, not a man, but an arrogant, a bit robot like, Kree soldier). When she sees the pictures she had with her friends, we can see she was always sunny, always trying new clothes, outfits and accessories, so I really wouldn’t complain about Carol wearing makeup and stuff because she likes it (or even to give it a try? I don’t know?).

WHAT I AGREE WITH YOU AND I WOULD HATE IF IT HAPPENED

Carol wearing makeup and non practical clothes during the entire Endgame

Carol wearing makeup and non practical clothes during battle scenes or tense combat like moments

Carol’s personality towards clothing changing without any specific explanation or approach

Carol’s sexualization, sexy costumes, skirts or armors showing her butt, etc or breast armors (that make no sense anatomically).

THE TOMBOY STEREOTYPE RULE I HATE

Movies tend to have this crazy stupid sexism thing that strong women have to be “masculine” or “tomboy” like. As if lesbians had to look tomboy or masculine or as if in order to become strong a woman has to abandon her feminine traits. I REALLY HATE THAT SHIT. I DO. AND THAT IS SO PRESENT IN SO MANY MOVIES. If that doesn’t help, women are put in combat, but they are either a monster/ugly/crazy or extremely sexualized (Wonder Woman with her sexy armor and one of the villains, Doctor Poison).

We rarely get to see a woman who is strong, clever, who still gets to keep her “feminine” traits and is not sexualized. Not that not having “feminine” traits is good or bad (just look at me, lol, a lot of things about me don’t correspond to my gender and stupid social values), what I’m talking about is the “sacrificing femininity for power or being sexualized, choose one” shit. I believe a woman (and a man, duh XD) have the right to wear what they want to ANY occasion. Like, Carol has the right to wear a combat armor, jeans, dresses, makeup, ANYTHING, as long as it makes sense, as long as she wants it. <3

When Marvel shows Carol Danvers can be strong as heck, smart, independent AND STILL WEAR MAKE UP, THAT IS A VERY GOOD MOVE.

Why is it a good move?

Breaks the tomboy to be strong stereotype

Shows Carol Danvers has LAYERS

Shows a woman doesn’t have to be summarized into only one thing (charming, powerful, practical…)

Reminds us that Carol is a woman like any other woman, she can wear makeup, and not wear it.

Reminds that a woman can be strong and still care about her “feminine” side. (I know…I…I don’t agree with gender theory, but considering the society, that shit still exists, I know.)

Shows us more than just one face of the character. We saw alien Carol, we saw practical Carol, we saw combat Carol, so why not see a Carol that also likes makeup?

The makeup isn’t even heavy, it’s basically…lipstick? That is good, it shows how she’s practical EVEN IN HER MAKEUP CHOICES, think about it.

How would it be BAD?

Carol with jeans and no make up stops existing.

Endgame didn’t give us a logic context so Carol would be wearing makeup, in other words, it was a combat or training moment and wearing makeup wouldn’t make any sense.

Carol’s personality changes without a proper approach.

This is my point.

If I agree 100% with you or not depends on the CONTEXT Endgame will give us. I am very feminist, I’ve been through a lot of prejudice myself and because of social angst I’ve even rejected many aspects of what “defines” my gender in many ways, and only now I’m starting to rediscover them, so I sort of identify with what could be happening to Carol.

Anyway, we’re on the same side. I’m just saying my point because I think Carol was very well built so far so we do have to think feminist carefully, because, me as an example, I get worked up really easily when it’s about sexist, and before I got mad about the Carol wearing makeup, I started to think and I was like “It is not bad if there is a proper context…” and “but it could be bad if Endgame doesn’t offer context…”.

That’s it basically, but just between us, I LOVE CAROL WITH THAT JEANS AND NO MAKEUP, IT’S LITERALLY ME, OKAY? :3

And also, you coming to my blog to send this ask, IT MADE MY DAY!!!Why? Because I know there are other feminists out there, fighting to change this sexist, stupid world, and I am with you in every aspect! It makes me really happy you are critic and that more people out there are critic as well! I love it, I need it, I support it!!

I LOVE CAROL IN BOTH WAYS, SHE’S EVERYTHING FJKDSHFKJDSHAS BUT I DO PREFER HER WITHOUT MAKEUP SHE REMINDS ME OF MYSELF!

Nonny, please give me feedback! I’m curious to talk to you! And I love you!!! We’re both fannsss and feminist buddiessss :3
