Me too! It's surreal how accurate that is. I think it's more like, I'd rather not see mother-daughter relationships in media, but I get jealous when I see people say "My mom's my best friend!" in real life.

Similar to how I'd go over to my friends' houses and see that their moms were genuinely relaxed and nice, Joyce and Buffy came off to me as weirdly fake. Goethel and Rapunzel's relationship seemed very muahaha moustache twirly, a little too OTT for me to relate. I've never been interested in watching Gilmore Girls because "cool mom is Rory's BFF!" does nothing for me. I'm okay with a range of mother-daughter relationships if they're off screen or take up very little screentime. I get more than enough of my mom and her constant lecturing, martyr complex, and comparing me to perfect women in real life. I like mothers with sons, though.

Give me the spectrum of daughters and dads, except for father-daughter incest and "gruff weary badass man rapidly grows to love snarky kickass perfect Strong Female Teen" (Ugh I hated The Last of Us.) I love both sons and daughters with horrible dads and daddy issues, daughters who've grown up without fathers, positive and heartwarming father-daughter relations (Mulan and her dad YES), and kind of awkward middle-of-the-road ones. Because while my dad can be tough, hypocritical, and stubborn as hell, he raised me well and showed me that I could still have fun and things I like in moderation/when I've earned it, instead of spending every single second criticizing myself and obsessing about how other people will judge me.
