ABSO-FUCKING-LUTELY TRUE!! The way they write Regulus, Barty, Evan is so good jk could never but what about the BLACK SISTERS ??! LILY EVANS ??!! They are literally canonically baddest bitches and they still get ignored by the fandom only bcz they are women. Like- Narcissa had so much potential, girlie straight up LIED TO MFKING VOLDEMORT AND GOT AWAY WITH IT unlike regulus :( And Andromeda literally going up against the ENTIRE BLACK BLOODLINE JUST TO BE WITH THE LOVE OF HER LIFE ?!! Honestly fuck. And where do I even start with Bella, she is batshit crazy and there's so much lore about her honestly it's insane how much the fandom ignores these mothers and yaps about one time mentioned characters and gives them the most complex characteristics ever.
idk why im in such a bad mood rn but it actually PISSES ME TF OFF how the entire marauders fandom collectively decided to take this bum-ass loser character with one discernable impact on the storyline (regulus. im talking about regulus) and make him a super complex, three-dimensional MAIN character in the era that’s being literally paired with JAMES POTTER(???) when they could’ve taken a character who AREADY has existing complexities and everything they could ever want and develop them. but they won’t because that character is a fucking woman ☠️☠️
the way the black sisters would have the entire fandom in a fucking chokehold if they were boys. do you actually think sirius and regulus would be as cherished as they are now if they were women? hell fucking no, regulus would be hated on so badly. the way we were given narcissa and fucking andromeda too? here’s the entire fandom yapping on and on about how cool regulus is for rebelling against the dark lord when narcissa was doing it and fucking getting away with it too (because she’s better and doesn’t suck ass). here’s andromeda going against her entire bloodline ON HER OWN but yet shes still so overshadowed by sirius (who literally came after her). then you got bellatrix who is canonly one of the most powerful (and cuntiest) witches in the hp-verse and you decide to go and develop BARTY instead. think about it. they’re both crazy except one is more of a loser and is a male so of course the fandom will choose him.
and then. of course. lily evans who is literally the mother of the entire verse itself is still out here fighting for literal recognition and development from the fandom. and those mfs still give it to regulus instead ☠️☠️
