It's funny, because you sure sound like a shill for the gold standard

Have you ever read The Neverending Story? "But that is another story and will be told another time.”

I wouldn't even say it's cringe. Fantasies that take place in fiction can be a safe space for women (and young women) to explore their desires, look at what makes that relationship dynamic tick, etc. Romanticizing it or moving that to real life would be a problem, of course. But fiction is fiction is fiction.

Do... people... carve coins? Aren't they stamped? I don't think there's ever been a significant mass production of coins that involve a dude hunched over a piece of metal, laboriously carving out the face of a sovereign, etc. etc.

I haven't read Making Money in years so I can't recall if this is actually the case but "Ankh-Morpork's official legal minting process involves a dude hunched over a piece of metal laboriously carving out the face of a sovereign" seems like very plausible Discworld worldbuilding

Cringe and problematic are different things. Calling it cringe (whether or not you agree) means something different than thinking it's morally wrong or problematic.

Firefly was severely overrated up through ~2008 or so, then it was somewhat overrated up through 2015 or so. I have a really hard time saying it's still overrated now. People don't love it as much as they used to, people who hate it are now very open about being critical about it, and everyone actively hates the guy who made it.

I'm so bored with how the hypercompetent girlboss thing is treated like the only acceptable archetype for girls to read about. It's ok to fantasize about being a passive little princess. Often it's the overachievers who are most into it because they need a fucking break!

I remember Kerry Washington giving a really powerful interview about what it meant for her as a Black woman to be rescued and put on a pedestal, because she was always expected to be strong and resilient.

I thought everyone agreed about this now.

Maybe OP thinks Firefly is incredibly bad. Like, worst TV show of all time, worse than Baywatch level bad.
