God, all romantic media is ruined. Even children's films.

I was a fucking dweeb when I was younger. Out of ironic Nostalgia, I was watching a review of Nostalgia Critic's Ferngully (Incel / autism trait btw, you are a social retard if you know who this guy is). And oh my fucking God, I couldn't even stand the plot of that fucking children's movie because of the romance dynamics.

The same archteypal story. The "civilized woman" finding our "poor barbarian" [but handsome!] man. She tries to "civilize" him to society while his "bad boy" demeanor challenges her but attracts her at the same time. They both grow in different ways, she steps outside her comfort zone and he becomes more human. He faces the family and friends who challenge his dominance, he proves superior, then they go away to a "magical cave" where they have metaphorical sex (they gaze into each other's eyes and hold hands which glow and "become one").

I think what's funnier than this is the fact that our "genius" critics were completely in the dark to the overall narrative going on. They picked up on the fact that the "sex" scene seemed bizzarely sexual and made a joke about that, but that's about it.

God I fucking hate being awoken to bullshit archetypal narratives, you can't even watch basic media without realizing how fake it is. How much is human civilization predicated on lies and metaphorical carrot on sticks.

This bullshit goes all the way back to ancient fucking Mesopotamia in the Epic of Gilgamesh.

There's a hunter-god [Enkidu] who lives in the wild and talks to animals, he's a ravenous beast. The gods are scared of him, so they send the divine sex-ritual goddess [Shamhat] to civilize him, she fucks him repeatedly in sacred sex, and he loses his connection with nature but he becomes a functioning member of society.

This narrative pops up in almost all mainstream romance movies. The "bad boy", the "edgy social reject", etc. are all variations of this same theme. I think the most "on the mark" version is Tarzan. Even Disney's Jungle Book hints at this theme in the ending; even Disney's fucking animal movies [Lady and the Tramp, Fox and the Hound, Aristocats]. The aggressively but dangerously masculine male who needs to be brought down to civility by the woman's divine softness, tenderness, and warmness. She unifies with him, transferring her femininity in sex to him, molding him as a cute little tiger with a bow-tie.

All lies by the way.

Movies seem bluepilled, shows seem a good bit more blackpilled. I was watching a large chunk of Gravity Falls the other day and it was absolutely peppered in blackpills. I would have expected this in older cartoons but looks like they kept it going for least until a few years ago. Obviously there were obligatory bluepills at the end of each episode, but throughout was like playing whack-a-.

There was a whole episode about Dipper trying to grow taller than Mabel because she barely heightmogged him. And throughout the show Mabel and her friends fawn over usually blonde/blue-eyed chads. Also the blonde villain kid was a kidlet.
