Just curious what you don't like about Cory/Topanga if you feel like talking about it!

hey, i don't mind!

first off i think boy meets world in the context of just a purely heterosexual show makes it age pretty poorly, and that all stems from cory and topanga. i know one of the writers said a while back that the writers room was torn between shory and corpanga, and tbh, rewatching as an adult, that's extremely evident. i'm not gonna make this post all about shory bc that's reductive but i am first and formost a shory girl and a firm believer that cory matthews is a gay man

so let's get into it.

i really really love s1/2 corpanga. idk if it's just bc ben/danielle felt more natural back then or if it's bc they actually allowed cory to be wrong and topanga to be right, but it's just so sweet. one of my all time fav ship moments from the show is the frickin sock basketball scene where they touch hands and he giggles. so adorable! but i think what really makes them suffer after s1 (and kind of s2) is just that they clearly made topanga a normal, kelly kapowski girl-next-door type to make her more "desirable" for the male audience. that could be an entire separate post, but it's so fucking obvious that that's what the change was and it sucks because topanga was great the way she was.

they're not like hatable in season 3 exactly, but the "old married couple haha look how old gross and boring they are" trope when they were legitimately sophomores was just weird? and this is a retrospect thing but i hate how the show just kept retconning shit and pretended they never broke up in season 3, as if a HUGE storyline and one of the most iconic episodes (the happiest place on earth) wasn't about them getting back together? and for me just the concept of the ~universe wanting them to be together~ over and over again is just so fucking lame when they were so toxic. (great video on this here)

they really don't do anything wrong in season 4 either, but a long walk to pittsburgh is honestly so beyond ridiculous LMAO. i know everyone talks about how romantic it is, but i hate it because topanga literally runs away and moves back to philly just for cory. i know they claim it's to finish at john adams too, but i would find that much more believable if they had developed topanga AT ALL outside of cory. we know almost nothing about her home life and they wrote trini out so we never even see any friends of hers! the trend of them fighting and talking down to amy about their love is so fucking stupid too. like you are sixteen. it is fine to love someone and want to be with someone, but amy is right that it's not healthy for them to be as obsessed with each other as they are. like cory literally doesn't know who he is outside of topanga and that's NOT healthy.

oh lordy. s5. i'm not going to get into how much i hate that shawngela (a MUCH happier, more interesting relationship) was reduced to "wanting to be corpanga" in both their intro episode and then fucking gmw, but even the "old married couple" stuff in "chasing angela" at the restaurant is so annoying. "last tango in philly" is one of my fav episodes, but it's the perfect example of how cory can never accept he's wrong. shawn tries to tell him they should stop, and he just tells shawn he knows nothing about relationships and keeps being a dick about topanga and her (obviously gay) friend. but obviously, you're here to hear about how i feel about the cheating. yes, cory cheated and he genuinely liked lauren. for the show to act like he didn't is just gaslighting their audience. and tbh? i think ben and linda cardellini had excellent chemistry (certainly more than he and danielle did at that point . . .) and i think it's completely healthy to date more than one person! it was nice seeing cory be able to open up and bond with someone else, and yes, what he did was cheating. just bc he changed his mind and decided he "couldn't live without topanga" (bless u probably queer writer for what u did w that line :') ) doesn't mean that it didn't happen. topanga had EVERY right to break up with him. it does piss me off that we barely saw topanga's reaction to the breakup when there was a whole ep dedicated to shawn's reaction (and i say that as the #1 shawn stan), but that show hated women lbfr. AND WHY TF WAS IT BAD FOR HER TO KISS JONATHAN JACKSON WHEN SHE AND CORY WERE BROKEN UP????? bc cory can't accept things not going his way and not having control. the "we are a masterpiece" scene makes me so fucking angry omg i cannot

and i mean, bro, the yale shit has been talked about to death, but topanga lawrence going to the same college as straight d-student shawn hunter has got to be the dumbest, most woman-hating shit the show ever did. love can survive long distance if you put the effort in, trust me. (yes i am aware that the show prob didn't want to separate their main couple, but s6 was almost entirely about shawn anyway so????)

then in seasons 6 and 7 we get into the "cory yelling at and publicly humiliating topanga" trend. "undapants" is iconic so i'm not gonna go into that episode (fuck you "take her back to your tornado infested trailer park" line!), but i can name at least seven occasions where cory pressures her into sex. and rider strong is right. it was extremely holier than thou how they constantly made it seemed like corpanga was better than shawngela for not fucking before marriage. like isn't there a line where they call shawngela sluts in s7? the whole honesty bit in "the truth about honesty" (admittedly one of my fav eps) is also just ridiculous bc both of them always get pissed off at the other one for being honest, even in the past. i've seen people get mad at topanga for throwing yale in cory's face but lbr, who didn't see that coming? i guess maybe it's a little weird bc she'd never been resentful about it before, but that's a HUGE thing in their relationship. and yes, it is weird that she's using his razor without his permission but again just the pressuring her to show him her ass is also fucking weird (it's also weird imo that they've been together "their whole lives" but they've only ever kissed, but again, holier than thou bullshit)

one thing i can say about how weak and uninteresting their relationship actually is is that their ENTIRE wedding episode is about shory, bc they are the much more compelling dynamic in cory's life. weirdly enough, i do actually really like cory's vows though?? on a shawn hunter stan note, oblig "that best man speech was bullshit" comment. it's completely normal and healthy to have a best friend outside of your partner? especially when you can't be honest with your partner. god i fucking hate that bullshit. just like how i hate in "seven the hard way/the war" how they portray cory abandoning his best friend/true life partner for topanga AND THEN IN FUCKING GMW THE BAD FUTURE FOR EVERYONE LITERALLY CAME TRUE!!!!!!! omg i will go insane if i think about that for longer than a few seconds.

end of post, but leaving this here

[silver-inked]

What is a ship you hate that most people like?

Josh and Maya from girl meets world. And now, yes I am a lucaya shipper, but this is totally separate to that.

I don’t think Josh and Maya had good chemistry, it always felt forced and the whole “for the long run” thing never sat right to me because Maya is a character with trust issues and at that point in her development the last thing she needed as a freshmen in high-school, was a promise from a guy entering college. Maya deserves better than that, because she would have waited (or at least for a while) and she deserves to find good relationships out of that.

I personally hate that arch in GMW, I think the whole “Maya has become Riley” is the dumbest shit I’ve ever seen. (Excuse my language but it’s true).

I love GMW and have rewatched it more than I’d like to admit, and that arch was a mistake because of how it handled the love triangle but most importantly how it treated Maya’s character.

Maya from the very beginning is a very confident person when it comes to her friends and who she portrays herself to be because she uses it to hide her insecurities. She learns to open up, to trust herself and to trust others throughout the show. Riley is her rock just like she is Riley’s rock. And yea, Maya starts to use different clothing and stops going off the railings after a good while, but isn’t that the point of her development? Maya uses clothing that literally everyone in her class uses, everyone in her age group, it’s also not extremely weird of her to use it. And yea Maya calms down, and yes starts to ignore her feelings and suppress them, which is bad, but the way the show handled it was horrible.

Yea, the arch with Maya having to think back on who she was to connect to who she is and wants to be is a good arch in concept. I would have loved to see it done better. The mural scene is iconic and fits perfectly with her development. The potencial of this love triangle / identity arch is so big, and it was waisted.

But comparing both girls by braking them into stereotypes only pushed back Maya’s development. Because up until now Maya has been learning to open up (about everything but her crush), but then she is not only being told her feelings aren’t valid, but also that she’s become her best friend and that’s infuriating to me. Because that cuts the growth in her figuring herself out, it creates a wall between both girls and also makes Maya question herself more than she needs to. Because a lot of what she was doing wasn’t odd, maybe a bit out of character and that should (and was addressed), which I think is important, but the method was so bad.

There is room for Maya development in the area they were aiming but telling Maya her feelings are just a replica of Riley’s is so messed up.

I am not convinced she was more into Josh than Lucas. Joshaya never seemed like an endgame it always seemed like a childhood crush, and the fact that they treated it like an endgame made me so sad because Maya deserves better than that.

Maya doesn’t need to end up with Lucas, I’d be fine with that, as long as Joshaya wasn’t end game.

Because Joshaya being end game means that Maya will have to “wait for him” which is messed up in itself. But also she would never address her feelings (or previous feelings if your not a lucaya shipper) for Lucas and instead deny them for the sake of all her friends. It’s a big miscommunication issue bound to explode later in life and it would be angry and destructive by then:

Because Riley should not have said Maya was Riley. Even if it’s true that Maya wanted what Riley had, it’s so out of character for Maya to become her, and in my opinion she didn’t, instead Maya lost her own motives and goals because she was trying to make Riley happy. Maya hid her feelings for years, and then when they came to light she did everything to try to minimize them, and by the point she was accused for being Riley, the lines were to blurred and messed up for both Riley and Maya. Maya always does everything to make Riley happy, and this was just a sad example of that.

Plus, and most importantly I hate so so so much that Lucas had no say in who he liked. Both girls sacrificed their feelings for each other. Then Riley decided Maya’s feelings were a confusion and then Maya decided to back off and “wait for the long run” and Lucas never got a say in the very end.

So I hate Joshaya because it does Maya so dirty and that final arch had so much potencial but instead in my opinion it was an emotional disaster.

Thanks for the tag @vaguely-functional-directions !

✨10 fandoms, 10 characters, 10 tags✨

1. Isadora Quagmire (asoue)

My funky little sapphic poet! While not much of a personality in canon sadly, the fandom has built her as a sassy, clever and just wonderful girl and I just love her. I also love her name. Literally Isadora is the name that's on top for me to name my future daughter.

2. Brittany S. Pierce (Glee)

Brittany gets me. I get Brittany. Listen... when I was in middle school, I was in a... not very nice class. People basically did not let me be myself, because every time I was myself I was "weird", "annoying", etc. So, as a way to provoke them, I acted even more weird and annoying than I actually was and as a defense mechanism I tried to confuse them - cause if I confused them, they would leave me alone and I would "win" the argument.

I really see that with Brittany. But in her case, it has gone so far that she actually believes it herself, and it makes her not succeed in school because she has believed she's dumb (when she's actually super smart). When people call Brittany annoying and strange, I just feel like they don't understand her like I do.

Love ya, Britt-Britt <3

3. Francesca Caviglia (Violetta)

Where do I begin? Francesca has been my very favorite from the beginning. Not only is she super talented, I also always loved how much she cares about her friends. She's also... me. Like not only with things she says but also how she acts. Just see how she acts when her friend sings? Her facial expressions? Her little hand movements? Random noises? ME.

I have SO many Fran pictures but why not take my profile pic, *puts hair behind ear in bisexual*

4. Jessi Glaser (Big Mouth)

I talk about Big Mouth once a year, and that's when a new season drops. People have been critical of this show, calling it gross and inappropriate... but you know that, it's super funny and it came out right when I needed it. So shut up.

Jessi is... honestly my favorite out of the kids. She always has something to fight or struggle with, and that's when you get so happy for her when she pushes through it, and becomes stronger. She also has the best hormone monstress.

5. Max Mayfield (Stranger Things)

At first, I didn't think much of her, but after watching season 3 she instantly became my fave. And in season 4?? AUGH!!! <333

Max is honestly. Iconic. I love her so mcfucking much I can't even express it. I cried in the last ep of s4 when I, for a moment, actually thought she was lost. She made s4, and she made s3. She's a queen, she's a girlboss, she's a precious angel and a badass. She's everything.

6. Yamila "Yam" Sanchez (Soy Luna)

When first watching the show, I totally expected Ámbar to be my favorite (and I LOVE Ámbar and writing and obsessing over her) but NO ONE TOLD ME about Yam. NO ONE TOLD ME ABOUT THIS AMAZING GIRL?!??!

Literally she... she acts like I would in so many situations. She's so chaotic, but at the same time so talented and an amazing friend. While she's the ultimate chaos girl, she's also really down to earth. When she isn't a tornado goofball, she's the one to talk some sense into her friends.

Also 70% of her tag is just my own posts and I lowkey look forward to the day someone goes through her tag (which barely happens cause no one looks through Jim or Yam's tags) and just likes them all

Also I had very little pictures of Yam alone (a lot of them are with Jim), so I picked this one simply because it brings no context at all and also it's chaotic. Why is she crawling? I dunno

7. Riley Mattews (GMW)

SUNSHINE BABY GIRL. I love her and Maya equally, but I picked her simply because people have an easier time hating on her for just existing. I don't like that. Stop that. I also relate to her a lot (we've established at this point that I personally relate to the "weird girls").

With that said, without Maya she's not herself. She needs Maya. They're soulmates, they complete each other. I am also happy they were "endgame" and definitely dated without realizing <3 I mean, in one of the last episodes Riley LITERALLY GOES "Maya, what if we don't care about our boyfriends as much as we care about each other?"

8. Ashlyn Caswell (HSMTMTS)

ASHLYN IS MY CANON JEWISH BISEXUAL AND I LOVE HER SO VERY MUCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

She has been my favorite since the beginning. A smiling little goofball that deserves the world. She has so much love to give, she cares so much about everyone she knows. Also, I really felt she wasn't straight from the beginning. Shipped her with Nini in s1 due to their piano duet and shipped her with Gina in s2. Her journey in s3?? OH MY GOSH sadaffg

I CAN PERSONALLY RELATE TO BEING HUGGED BY A GIRL AT CAMP AND HAVING AN "OH" MOMENT. LITERALLY THAT HAPPENED TO ME. NOT JOKING.

9. Beverly Marsh (IT)

Beverly... gosh, she's special to me. Not only was she the most interesting character to follow in the 2017 movie, she was also the most interesting character to follow in the book. When I read the book, I overanalysed everything Beverly-related. Like, to the point where I could recite what the friends she had outside of the losers club were named (I don't remember anymore except for Kay McCall but that was when Bev was an adult, there were so many random characters in that book that were just mentioned as "oh, this was their friend when they were 7 also they borrowed them this book")

Protect Beverly at all costs.

10. Casey Gardner (Atypical)

Wow me?? Ok, no, I don't like running tracks like she does (I have asthma so running is the worst for me) but like... her energy? I feel like the way she talks and gestures... me!!

I don't know what else to say hahaha but I love her

Alrighty! So, I now need to tag people too. No pressure on doing this, though! Tagging:

@ven10 @broke-on-books @countessofravenclaw @moonlark-sparkles @sapphic-squid @funkyliloboist and honestly anyone else who wants to! <3

thoughts on the that 90s show ships ?

hey!

first off, jay/leia is the cutest little tropiest ship and if you don't love them you hate fun <3

i'm so conflicted on nate/leia, bc objectively i can understand the argument in their favor. (i will say that saying they're more like eric/donna just gives me gmw flashbacks w who was the new corpanga so i'm not getting into that debate) i've seen some fans of it say that leia's interest in jay was based purely on lust while her connection w nate was genuine and i can see that, but i don't think it's entirely true. leia's connection w jay started when he was kind to her in 103, it had nothing to do w his looks. is she attracted to him? clearly (girl get up). but leia says continuously that she loves the sweet and responsible side of jay. with nate however, i think their connection is very sweet too, but it was more convenience than anything else. they were both lonely, so they relyed on each other in those two brief moments.

now, as for who the show wants to be endgame? again, if we're doing the girl-boy next door thing, i can see the argument for nate/leia based purely on that, but i do think the writers are genuinely invested in jay and i think that since they were built up from the pilot, much like eric/donna (again gmw flashbacks) AND they do have that on the hood of the car scene (which is imo prob the most iconic moment of t70s pilot), that it'll prob be jay/leia IF we get renewed. i do think they'll explore nate/leia tho.

as for the other ships (wow that was a lot, sorry!), nate/nikki doesn't particularly interest me but i love a good jock/smart girl dynamic so we can see where things lead. i do think she's planning on dumping him tho :(

gwen/leia didn't really give me a buzz for whatever reason (maybe bc they just give me hyde/eric) BUT gwen/nikki gave me huge buzz. frenemies to lovers?? their lil plot in ep5 solidified it for me. and scrunchie gate? iconic.

if you're asking me ab the t70s ships, my opinion is that i love eric/donna and i'm glad the creators do too and that is all that i care about in any of the discourse.
