o hay

i see someone hasn't learned the concept of 'sexual racism' and how it's linked to colonialism.

[aestivalis]

Sounds to me like you're right, I don't know what that means. But hey, I'm willing to be wrong you know - if you really think I'm missing something then explain away!

edit; actually wait no, that's wildly presumptuous. I'll look it up |B

[aestivalis]

I dunno, I've only just done some very quick reading obviously, I've got other things I'm supposed to be doing right now as well. But I dunno, this is just one person deciding what part of a superhero show they want to fap over (um, no disrespect intended secretmaker). I can see what you're getting at, but I think in this context it's really still fairly harmless. Though I suppose the counterargument to that would be if they use these values here they'll use them in all aspects of life yadda yadda yadda. Hm...

But yeah, it should be fairly obvious that I'm not really up on the intricacies of this. Hrm.

whether one person's thoughts are harmless in the grand scheme of things or not, that doesn't make it any less racist. racism is more than just blatant harmful acts, it manifests in a hell of a lot of common ways that most people are conditioned not to see, because it's still acceptable. and it is often these "minor" and "harmless" opinions that society encourages us to have that are most harmful in the long run, because it is so common and not seen as racism. what people find sexually attractive is not something that exists inside a bubble, free from influences. if we existed in a society where racism was a thing of the past, "she just isn't attracted to x" might be a valid excuse, but until we reach that place in society, there is way more to it than that.

I'll admit I'm not familiar with the term - and I think the secret was worded atrociously, and does reveal latent racism, though at least she's aware of it - but if darker people aren't your type then they're not, right? I've rarely schlicked to blonde blue-eyed characters because 90% of the time that coloring doesn't it for me, but I wouldn't say it's because I "wish they weren't Aryan" or anything. (White, Jewish, and dark of hair and eyes for the record.)

*adding* And that doesn't make me like them any less as characters, etc. etc.
