what she says: I'm fine
what she means: There was literally no narrative coherency or internal logic to Spider-Man being in Captain America: Civil War and you could have easily removed him from the plot without any impact. Why does Tony, who wanted accountability because of his guilt over innocent people dying in Sokovia, recruit a child to fight in his war? Where is the narrative logic that leads him to go to a high school teenager and ask him to fight in a war he has no stakes in, implement him with his own ideals before Peter has a chance to form his own opinion, and tell him to go up against a bunch of super-powered adults? Why does no one call him out on how reckless and selfish this is? Why doesn't anyone point out the hypocrisy of asking for accountability, then secretly recruiting a child behind their parental guardian's back? How can the narrative paint Tony as the reasonable and responsible one? Does Peter only exist to act as a snarking comic relief without any emotional impact on the plot and to disappear when the story has no longer any use for him? We could easily have allocated that screentime to focusing more on the other characters, like giving Natasha, Sharon and Wanda a proper ending to their arc, focusing more on Sam, or just working on concluding the movie in a meaningful way, instead we just get a lazy promo for the third iteration of Peter Parker's Groundhog Day Loop from Hell.

something weird

im bi but I tend to get crushes on fictional male characters more that real men and real women more than fictional female characters

so I guess I like to concept of men

i think this is a common feeling because men are written with such depth and complexity, whereas fictional women are not only few and far between, but are written half-assedly and from a place of little understanding of a woman’s standpoint. 

meanwhile, real women are lovely and complex people, and real men are mostly just potatoes.

Straight White Guys: It's not racist. The reason why most characters are straight white guys is it's a business. They just want to do what makes the most money. No one's being racist or sexist. It's just smart business.
Straight White Guys: Having a Black Captain America or Pakistani Ms. Marvel or female Thor is PANDERING. All they're trying to do is get MONEY from you. It's just a marketing ploy! This is horrible!s
