Interesting what they all have in common…

@ All the people in the notes saying “it’s bc they’re side characters!! Stop making it abt race when it isn’t!!”

1) yes it is about race

2) Bucky and Loki are both side characters and they have entire sub-fandoms stfu your whiteness is showing

me, a feminist: it’s important to support m/f ships where she is smarter and overall more badass than him yet he supports her and loves her for her capabilities and not despite them throwing toxic masculinity right out the window.

also me, a known gay: but wouldn’t it just be great if she had an equally intelligent and badass girlfriend instead?

Maybe the real problem is we don’t have enough F/F or healthy F/M relationships so we feel like we have to choose

Three days? Easy peasy.

Can we just agree that Scott Lang is one of the most well adjusted, emotionally healthy characters in the MCU? 

Also does magic tricks !!?? He’s getting: This bread

Luis subverting traditional toxic masculinity tropes one scene at a time.

The purest Avenger.

Not only that, but I love that Luis is also turning latino male movie stereotypes on their ear.  As a Mexican-American woman, I adore this.  He’s not violent.  He’s not portrayed as some gang banging, drug dealing thug.  He’s cultured. He loves wine and art. He cooks.  He’s gentle and bright. And they have him loving Morrissey which is hilarious and SPOT on. Thanks, Marvel.  I love Luis!

2018 was the year of disaster super heroes being loved by their exes’ new husbands/boyfriends.

Jim went from being antagonistic (but not a bad guy) in Ant-Man to loving the ever loving shit out of Scott in Ant-Man and The Wasp. His favorite thing seems to be putting his big arms around both Scott and Maggie like a protective shield.

Dan never showed a speck of jealousy towards Eddie in Venom and wanted to help him even when Anne still wasn’t quite onboard with the idea. They ended up deleting the scene, but originally Dan helped Eddie out of the infamous lobster tank and carried him baby-style out of the restaurant while Eddie clung to him like a sad koala. You can still find photos of it.

I like this trend of supportive new husbands/boyfriends. Not only does it help you understand why the women chose them as the new men in their lives, it’s also really nice to see the guys being caring and loving towards each other in a way that’s different to the “bros in arms” we usually get from superhero movies.
