The Bachelor/ette Through a Feminist Lens:

Thoughts on Last Season, the Upcoming Season, and Why I Want to Start These Conversations

Hi. My name is Emily. I am twenty and I just finished my second year of college. I love The Bachelor, The Bachelorette, and Bachelor in Paradise. I understand these shows aren’t the pinnacle of intelligent entertainment, but I still watch them, and I love them. I could call them a guilty pleasure, but I don’t feel guilty about it. The Bachelor franchise is a cultural phenomenon. It almost seems that it’s more unique to have not seen or heard of the show than to watch it religiously, or just watch it sometimes. 

I am double-majoring in Theatre Art and English Writing, and seriously considering a minor in Women’s and Gender Studies. This past semester, I took a class called Writing of Women. One student did her final project on The Bachelor and how it is anti-feminist. I felt embarrassed at first. Feminism is important to me, and I don’t want to contribute to a society that puts women down. The girl doing the presentation had never seen an episode of the show, but a lot of her points were valid. The Bachelor has editors that work hard to make women look crazy, like bitches, like idiots. The Bachelor fosters the mindset that a happy ending should be focused on (especially for a woman) marriage above all else. 

But still, many women - myself included - love the show. My classmate suggested we don’t watch The Bachelor anymore, so it might get cancelled. I can realize The Bachelor isn’t going anywhere. And I’m not sure I want it to. This is a show many women enjoy, and often times the things women enjoy are devalued as stupid or not worthwhile. There has to be some good and some validity in a show that so many people really like. I’m not saying it’s perfect - it’s far from it. And I want to talk about those issues, and how they should be fixed, and how angry they make us. But I also want to talk about the merit found within the show. Week by week, episode by episode, I want to dissect and discuss through a feminist lens the show that I really enjoy. Maybe by the end, I won’t enjoy it anymore. Or maybe it’ll make it easier to digest. 

That said, I want to talk about last season. I don’t think I have too much to drone on about - it was kind of boring. I had wanted Nick Viall to be the Bachelor for years, and I felt unsatisfied by a season that was (probably, I don’t really remember) promised to be The Most Dramatic Season Yet. Don’t get me wrong, I still like Nick Viall. I like to believe, even though it’s obvious he just got accidentally caught in the middle of that women’s march, he still supports the movement. As far as Bachelor guys go, he seems to be one of the few that doesn’t actively hate women. 

I also loved the women on his season. I think it’s really important for a show to be able to foster so many female relationships. Alexis was hilarious, and I can’t wait to watch her on Paradise this summer. Rachel was stunning and smart and her season has me so hyped and hopeful. Vanessa was my favorite all season - even as I watched fans begin to turn on her because she was edited to be too serious, or because she was treating her relationship with Nick like an actual relationship instead of a TV relationship. 

I think the initial hatred of Corinne is similar to the current hatred of Vanessa. Corinne wasn’t doing anything particularly villainous. She was just being open with her sexuality. I was shocked as I watched her get slut-shamed on twitter week after week. Why weren’t people getting mad at Nick? He was the one, as America should assume, that was looking for something serious. He could have sent her home, and he didn’t. She should be able to act however she wants.

Luckily, the tables turned for Corinne and she became an incredibly loved contestant from the season. However, the same can’t really be said of Vanessa. It seems to be a trend for fans to hate whatever woman the Bachelor gets engaged to - the same nasty comments Vanessa receives also seem to be aimed at Lauren from the previous season. I don’t really understand why people seem to hate these women so much. The whole point of the show is for the lead to get engaged - but they really can’t win. If Vanessa tries to have conversations with Nick about what her life would look like after they got engaged, she’s too serious. If she goes on After the Final Rose and says they have no plans to get married, she’s not serious enough. 

I personally have not seen the same kind of verbal attacks thrown at male contestants that female contestants receive. Perhaps it’s just as bad for them, but I haven’t seen it and it seems gender-related to me. 

This season, I’ll make sure to keep up with the guys and their social media following. Obviously women get terrible edits, but I realize men can get a bad edit as well. Evan from JoJo’s season is apparently a millionaire, and they made him out to be a “loser” character. I think that might go into the fact that he’s a father and he ran an erectile dysfunction clinic. It was easy for producers to poke fun at the fact that he isn’t traditionally “masculine.” I’m sure we’ll see a lot of that this season. The recently released promo is already doing that and I’m going to talk about that in another post.

The bright side will be getting to see Rachel Lindsay every Monday. I truly think she’s the best Bachelorette to ever get the gig and I can’t wait to see how she handles each situation with grace and intelligence. I am so excited that a woman of color was finally given the opportunity to be the Bachelorette. It was an amazing decision, however, I don’t think we should be praising ABC for it, considering it took twelve seasons (plus twenty-one seasons of The Bachelor) for the lead to be given to a person of color. It’s progressiveness, but at a tortoise pace. I think we still need to hold ABC accountable to being more progressive and giving more opportunities to POC on the show. I’m sure the majority of the men on Rachel’s season will still be white. 

Cast bios are coming out on the 17th, but if you follow Reality Steve or another Bachelor-related gossip site, you already know who the bachelors on Rachel’s season are. In the interest of not revealing spoilers, I’m going to wait to talk about the men until they’re released to the public, but I might cave and discuss the four men who went on ATFR before then since we’ve all already seen them. I would also like to compare the bios of the men on Rachel’s season to the women on Nick’s season - maybe it could be interesting. In the days leading up to Rachel’s season premiere, I hope to write about a lot of interesting things from past seasons to talk about. 

If you read this and you have anything you’d like to chat about, let me know! I’m really excited to start watching the Bachelor shows through a feminist lens!
