What I really love about xwp is that Xena and Gabrielle cry countless of times onscreen and that never detracts from their badass skills and respect as warriors. They get to wear a bunch of fun outfits with their bellies showing and not be sexualized by the camera because they're shown as people with complexities and personalities and a driving narrative force. Media should really learn from this. Characters of all genders should have this, where are more of these shows?

#xena #beanz rambles #it's like when hollywood made 'strong female characters' they tried to make them not show emotion other than anger #like their male counterparts #but instead of a stoicism approach they should go for people showing emotions #crying makes you stronger not weaker #also not sexualizing women in media doesn't mean get rid of sex altogether #give them autonomy like their male friends and let them wear some fun outfits #look at the harley quinn movie #okay i'm done thanks for coming to my ted talk
