not to resurrect a show i haven’t spoken about in literal years, but one thing about seal team that was Actually Unnecessary was how everyone referred to cerberus as a male dog when dita is blatantly female. sure it’s one thing when they would “good boy” her and what have you, yeah that can and does slide. but the time brock was like, “i’m taking him for breeding” and there was some kind of comment about how the dog is “getting more” than his handler. it’s not unheard of to refer to a dog of x gender as y gender in media especially when they are more coated and it can be obscured, but to call a short coated, tightly tucked, female malinois male and add to the story that this dog is siring litters is buffoonery.

#also the masculinity of the show was tiring and made it harder and harder to watch as seasons went on #like i get it it’s a military show. it’s about navy seals. men tend to dominate that. but idk. it was just so *eye roll*#but i primarily sat down to watch to see how the dog was being worked and if the situations were believable or not #because i was so used to seeing pets fulfilling working dog rolls in crime dramas and it was… 😬#at least they referred to pepper as a female because she is. but even at that it seems like there was a comment about her being a girl iirc #but i can’t be certain because i haven’t watched the show since whatever season before they went to paramount plus #babble post #tv talks
