Miraculous Ladybug Is Kind Of Sexist
Summary
TLDRVideo käsitleb "Miraculous Ladybug" telesaate võimalikke seksistlikke elemente, väites, et hoolimata naispeategelase kangelaslikust kujutamisest, esinevad saates mitmed aegunud stereotüübid. Marinette on küll tugev ja sõltumatu, kuid tema tegelaskuju keskmes on liigne romantiline huvi Adrieni vastu. Samas Adrieni arengut käsitletakse mitmekesisemalt ja sõltumatult tema romantilisest huvialast. Lisaks käsitletakse nais- ja meesnegatiivseid tegelasi erinevalt, kusjuures meestegelaste lunastamine näidatakse positiivselt, samas kui nais antagonistid saavad karmima kohtlemise. Autor tõstatab küsimusi, kas selline lähenemine on tegelikult progressiivne või sisaldab see seksistlikke troppe, mis võivad kahandada saatega seotud positiivseid sõnumeid tüdrukute võimestamise kohta.

Timeline
- 00:00:00 - 00:05:00
奇迹是一部带有女权色彩的节目,主角Marinette化身为Ladybug。这个节目强调女孩可以独立且有力量,不需要依赖男人。剧中,Marinette从一个软弱的角色成长为有信心的领导者,然而节目过多地将焦点放在浪漫方面,尤其是Marinette对Adrian的痴迷,使她的角色发展依赖于一个男孩,显得不够进步且单薄。
- 00:05:00 - 00:10:00
Marinette与其他主要女性角色之间的竞争似乎主要围绕着对Adrian的感情,这显得老套和不够创新。节目中男性角色,如Gabe和Andre,即便有不可取的行为,却在故事中获得了一定的宽容或者最后的‘救赎’,而女性反派角色则常常没有这种待遇,显得不公。
- 00:10:00 - 00:15:22
节目在处理男性与女性反派角色方面存在偏差,彰显了某种刻板印象,即男性角色即便有缺陷,也可能最终被赋予同情和理解,而女性角色则被全然贬低,没有赎罪的余地。这种双重标准的问题在鼓励年轻女性自立的节目中显得尤为突出。

- 00:00:00so is miraculous kind of sexist to
- 00:00:02anybody else like yeah just a general
- 00:00:04question and my goodness I know this is
- 00:00:07already a bit of a spicy question to ask
- 00:00:09and probably a spicy opinion to hold I
- 00:00:12kind of think it is or at least I think
- 00:00:14it sort of is in some regards now
- 00:00:16obviously the intention behind the show
- 00:00:17itself is largely uplifting and an
- 00:00:19inspiring girl power type of story where
- 00:00:22Marinette ladybug is the main hero of
- 00:00:24the tale don't let the title fool you
- 00:00:26this is not the tales of cat Noir it's
- 00:00:28the tales of ladybug nobody's shortening
- 00:00:31the title to miraculous cat Noir are
- 00:00:32they they shorten it to miraculous
- 00:00:34ladybug she's the main character and
- 00:00:36that's all you need to know really it's
- 00:00:38simply how the show's framed and on the
- 00:00:40surface I think it actually does send
- 00:00:41quite an empowering message right that
- 00:00:43the hero doesn't always need to be a man
- 00:00:45that girls can be independent and strong
- 00:00:47and can lead and they get the job done
- 00:00:49for themselves and through the vessel of
- 00:00:51Marinette we do see this play out on
- 00:00:53screen when we first meet her she's
- 00:00:55rather Meek and scared and just not a
- 00:00:57very heroic or exciting character at
- 00:00:59least that that's what she's like at the
- 00:01:01start of the timeline when you put those
- 00:01:02episodes in chronological order but
- 00:01:04after she's chosen by masterfood to
- 00:01:06become the next winner of the miraculous
- 00:01:07all because of her selfless kindness she
- 00:01:10begins to develop far more as a
- 00:01:12character she becomes self-confident a
- 00:01:15self-assured hero she leads the duo to
- 00:01:17Victory many times she's not the Damsel
- 00:01:19in Distress she's not some weakling that
- 00:01:21can't do anything right she's the one
- 00:01:23that in the overwhelming majority of
- 00:01:25episodes comes up with the winning
- 00:01:27strategy that defeats the villain and
- 00:01:29gets the Akuma and also in the majority
- 00:01:32of the episode she's also just straight
- 00:01:33up the person that does the most work
- 00:01:36within the winning strategy whilst cat
- 00:01:38Noir kind of awkwardly shuffles off to
- 00:01:39the side or gets defeated you know as is
- 00:01:42tradition on top of that over the course
- 00:01:44of the show it's Marinette that's chosen
- 00:01:46to be trained by Foo and set up to be
- 00:01:48the future Guardian to replace him at
- 00:01:50the end of season three and it's her
- 00:01:52that leads the team of Heroes she's in
- 00:01:54charge she's trusted to know all of the
- 00:01:56identities except for cat noirs and hand
- 00:01:59out the miraculous to whom she will and
- 00:02:01really she's just the main leader in the
- 00:02:03effort to defeat hawkmoth or Shadow moth
- 00:02:05or Monarch whatever you want to call him
- 00:02:06old smooth brain Gabe himself and so
- 00:02:09yeah in that regard I do think the show
- 00:02:11was a bit of a breath of fresh air a new
- 00:02:13era so to speak a bit more Progressive
- 00:02:15than some shows have been in the past
- 00:02:17but that's just the obvious thing right
- 00:02:19oh yes the girl is the main hero it's a
- 00:02:21step in the right direction but at the
- 00:02:23same time the show for me at least still
- 00:02:26comes across as really sus when you
- 00:02:28compare it to a bunch of other shows of
- 00:02:29this era and indeed past eras and there
- 00:02:32are a few ways in which I've noticed
- 00:02:33this but for starters we can start with
- 00:02:35the hyper fixation on romance or rather
- 00:02:37the hyper fixation of the story to have
- 00:02:39all the main lead girls just thirst over
- 00:02:42this one dude driving most of the drama
- 00:02:44and the story development and this is
- 00:02:46pretty much the exclusion of all else
- 00:02:48and so yes I'm talking about the thirst
- 00:02:50for Adrian because when you think about
- 00:02:52Marinette what is the main goal in her
- 00:02:54life that comes to mind that you see
- 00:02:56across all of the seasons of the show
- 00:02:58and if you've not said managed to win in
- 00:03:00Adrian's heart then I'm sorry you are
- 00:03:02the weakest link goodbye pretty much
- 00:03:04every episode you'll ever see you'll
- 00:03:06have this Force its way into the story
- 00:03:07in some regard and it never really
- 00:03:09changes even when she dates Luca it's
- 00:03:12very brief and then she's just back at
- 00:03:14it again her whole identity changes she
- 00:03:16goes from the self-assured leader of her
- 00:03:18friend group to a complete creepazoid
- 00:03:21and with a flip of a coin pretty much
- 00:03:23her whole identity revolves around this
- 00:03:25one dude and if you strip it away she no
- 00:03:28longer has any real story Beyond
- 00:03:30fighting Gabe which is not enough if you
- 00:03:32ask me for a well-rounded character let
- 00:03:35alone you protagonist even her
- 00:03:37interactions with her friends over time
- 00:03:38largely become colored by this Obsession
- 00:03:41all of their schemes and their
- 00:03:43discussions to try and get her in with
- 00:03:45Adrian it's fine for a sometimes
- 00:03:47storyline as I know real friendships do
- 00:03:50have these sort of discussions but like
- 00:03:51it's such a dominant force in the story
- 00:03:53that I do think it actually actively
- 00:03:55harms Marinette as a character or at
- 00:03:58least it did in early Seasons especially
- 00:04:00it makes her whole Arc dependent on this
- 00:04:03one guy which doesn't feel very
- 00:04:05Progressive to me I mean I'm not against
- 00:04:07romance and I do think it has a place in
- 00:04:09the story but the way it's framed is
- 00:04:11just very odd to me I mean it even
- 00:04:13spills over into a number of the other
- 00:04:15main characters and their relationships
- 00:04:18with Marinette our main hero take Lila
- 00:04:20for example she's pretty much being set
- 00:04:22up as the main villain of the show's
- 00:04:23next big Saga she's replacing Gabe and
- 00:04:26she's getting her hands on the
- 00:04:27miraculous of the butterfly and so
- 00:04:29clearly she needed a reason to go up
- 00:04:31against Marinette it just makes sense to
- 00:04:32have them at odds right to build up this
- 00:04:34rivalry whilst you can before Lila goes
- 00:04:37off through Hawk moth and kind of has to
- 00:04:39be in the shadows by necessity and how
- 00:04:41is it do you think they built up this
- 00:04:42Grand rivalry how do you think they did
- 00:04:44it that's right they had Marinette get
- 00:04:47massively and irrationally jealous at
- 00:04:49Lila trying to crack onto Adrian that's
- 00:04:51how that is the entire story of why they
- 00:04:54hate each other what will turn out to be
- 00:04:56a multi-season clash between these two
- 00:04:58characters boils down into an attempted
- 00:05:00tug of war over Adrian's affections
- 00:05:02which oh I don't know it kind of worked
- 00:05:05at First until it basically just
- 00:05:06consumed their whole storyline even
- 00:05:08beyond the point of reason because after
- 00:05:10Adrian has given Lila the proverbial
- 00:05:13middle finger she's still trying to
- 00:05:14manipulate her way in to getting with
- 00:05:17this dude she pretty much swears a blood
- 00:05:18Feud against Marinette for all time
- 00:05:20because she was blocked that one
- 00:05:22time like she straight up tries to ruin
- 00:05:24this girl's life same with Chloe yeah
- 00:05:26there's the pre-built history with Chloe
- 00:05:28and Marinette but the reality that in
- 00:05:31practice many of their conflicts simply
- 00:05:33boil down to jealousy and competition
- 00:05:35About a Boy even late into the game
- 00:05:37where once again Adrian has told Chloe
- 00:05:39where to shove it she's still trying to
- 00:05:41get in she's still trying to manipulate
- 00:05:43him to get him away from Marinette and I
- 00:05:45don't know I do think it makes him seem
- 00:05:47like weaker characters it feels lazy and
- 00:05:50contrived in falling into a lot of those
- 00:05:52old tropes that we probably want to get
- 00:05:53away from I mean I don't think they're
- 00:05:55overtly trying to be sexist or
- 00:05:56misogynistic or anything like that but
- 00:05:58it certainly seems quite regressive live
- 00:06:00to have so many of the prominent female
- 00:06:02cast members your main protagonist two
- 00:06:04of your major antagonists Al kagami's
- 00:06:07whole vibe was about Adrian and then she
- 00:06:09switches to Felix who conveniently looks
- 00:06:11exactly like Adrian but yeah they become
- 00:06:13rabid dogs when they're confronted with
- 00:06:15this handsome boy they lose all sense of
- 00:06:17character and they fight it out a bunch
- 00:06:19of animals trying to get the last link
- 00:06:20of sausages it's especially hard to take
- 00:06:22Marinette your main protagonist
- 00:06:24seriously as a result of all this her
- 00:06:27thirsty Shenanigans go way too far and
- 00:06:29it becomes weird and the problem is it's
- 00:06:32not a reciprocal thing take a look at
- 00:06:34Adrian in his storyline yes obviously
- 00:06:36there's still the obsession with ladybug
- 00:06:37and all of that but it's not in the same
- 00:06:39way it's much reduced and it doesn't
- 00:06:42Define his relationships with pretty
- 00:06:43much every other character because there
- 00:06:45are major facets to historian
- 00:06:47personality and interpersonal
- 00:06:48relationships that develop independently
- 00:06:51of ladybug like his friendships with the
- 00:06:53various Side characters kagami Luca Nino
- 00:06:56his bond with plague Natalie being a
- 00:06:59surrogate mother foreign his stormy and
- 00:07:01abusive relationship with Gabe and all
- 00:07:02that entails hell even the development
- 00:07:05of his relationship with Marinette
- 00:07:06because like I said that's a new thing
- 00:07:09he doesn't know that marinette's ladybug
- 00:07:11so it's a different relationship and
- 00:07:13that for him from his point of view
- 00:07:15develops naturally and healthily and
- 00:07:17only after that does that all twist
- 00:07:19together his story develops into it it's
- 00:07:21not the only facet of his personality
- 00:07:24that is so much depth he's a character
- 00:07:26that does not live solely to play out
- 00:07:28his obsession with his romantic interest
- 00:07:29and instead he has much more of a life
- 00:07:31and personality outside of that it's
- 00:07:33just the difference in the way that the
- 00:07:35story deals with both their arcs that I
- 00:07:37do find really astounding and really
- 00:07:39regressive oh and on top of that can I
- 00:07:42remind anybody how they frame the
- 00:07:44rejection of cat Noir by ladybug over
- 00:07:46and over again how that's treated by the
- 00:07:48story is treated as a massive negative
- 00:07:50plague yells at ladybug about it saying
- 00:07:52that she should be grateful for having
- 00:07:54someone love her so much the sad music
- 00:07:56playing over and over again every time
- 00:07:58he's rejected and gets sad Captain wants
- 00:07:59gets angsty ladybug apologizes for
- 00:08:03hurting his feelings imagine that the
- 00:08:05rejected man who can't accept a no is
- 00:08:07treated by The Narrative by the story by
- 00:08:10the writers as the victim whilst the
- 00:08:12woman who does the right thing and tells
- 00:08:13him no and won't accept his romantic
- 00:08:15affection and all the while makes it
- 00:08:17very clear to him that she's not trying
- 00:08:19to lead him on before exercising her
- 00:08:21right to feel safe and avoid his overly
- 00:08:23creepy ways is considered to be a shrew
- 00:08:26to be cruel a heartbreaker that's
- 00:08:30straight out of the Nice Guy's subreddit
- 00:08:31but that's not all and I would argue
- 00:08:34that this next one is probably the worst
- 00:08:35of it it's how the show frames the arcs
- 00:08:37of his villains and the different way it
- 00:08:39wants you to view villainous male
- 00:08:40characters versus villainous female
- 00:08:42characters look Gabe's a massive piece
- 00:08:45of and you can't possibly try to
- 00:08:47deny that fact it's just how it is he
- 00:08:49abuses his son and random other children
- 00:08:52and really anyone and is willing to
- 00:08:54sacrifice everybody in the world and
- 00:08:56anything in the world in pursuit of his
- 00:08:58selfish desire of bringing him his wife
- 00:09:00back to life even though on real talk
- 00:09:02let's be honest she played with who I
- 00:09:04actually got burned that was the price
- 00:09:05she paid to have a kid too bad and it
- 00:09:07was one that she actually seemed to have
- 00:09:09long since accepted so he goes against
- 00:09:11her dying wishes and he does heinous
- 00:09:13to her only child but at the last
- 00:09:15second he changes his mind and decides
- 00:09:16to be a good person like he gets a
- 00:09:18literal last second Redemption and then
- 00:09:21he's remembered as a tragic hero what
- 00:09:24he's a piece of trash but the show is
- 00:09:27framing him as a hero at the end what
- 00:09:29next up look at Andre he's also up there
- 00:09:32for worst father in the franchise he
- 00:09:34bows down to the every whim of his
- 00:09:35abusive and narcissistic wife allowing
- 00:09:37his daughter to become just as twisted
- 00:09:39and indeed he engages in a ton of
- 00:09:42shady and corrupt dealings himself and
- 00:09:44at the end of all of that he ditches his
- 00:09:46daughter whom he mostly raised himself
- 00:09:48and considers her a lost cause with the
- 00:09:51show suddenly painting this dude as a
- 00:09:53victim and a hero for letting Chloe have
- 00:09:55it for tearing her apart verbally and
- 00:09:58abandoning her to be raised by his wife
- 00:10:00his truly terrible horrible abusive wife
- 00:10:03sure yeah I guess he's a hero then isn't
- 00:10:06he so now we have two undeserved I'd
- 00:10:08argue Redemption asks for the major male
- 00:10:11antagonists well just another comparison
- 00:10:14Felix in his intro does he not assault
- 00:10:17Marinette or at least harass her quite
- 00:10:19badly that ain't good and he Slaughters
- 00:10:21the entire planet because he has daddy
- 00:10:23issues and existential issues but at no
- 00:10:26point beyond that brief intro do I think
- 00:10:29this story ever really frames him as a
- 00:10:31villain no he's an anti-hero a bit of a
- 00:10:34badass who yeah he makes some mistakes
- 00:10:36but it's all good because he's a soft
- 00:10:38boy at heart and he gets done come
- 00:10:42on now but what about the ladies what do
- 00:10:44they get any redemption in sight well we
- 00:10:46have Natalie and she does get a pretty
- 00:10:48good Redemption Arc this one that
- 00:10:50actually feels the most earned because
- 00:10:52she doesn't just suddenly get the
- 00:10:54Redemption Arc out of nowhere she gets
- 00:10:56sick trying to help Gabe because I think
- 00:10:58on one hand she loves him two on one
- 00:11:00hand she was very close to Emily and
- 00:11:02three she loves Adrian so much and wants
- 00:11:05him to have his mother back but then she
- 00:11:07gets sick she see Gabe's going crazy and
- 00:11:09then he's abusing Adrian way too hard
- 00:11:10and so she tries to change things decent
- 00:11:14enough well written I think but then who
- 00:11:16are our other female villains three
- 00:11:18truly terrible characters who show No
- 00:11:21Remorse at all no goodness and by the
- 00:11:23end there's no real positive qualities
- 00:11:25we're talking Chloe we're talking Lila
- 00:11:27we're talking Audrey Audrey especially
- 00:11:30is blamed for everything that Andre has
- 00:11:33ever done obviously she must have lured
- 00:11:35the poor innocent man in with her
- 00:11:36terrible womanly wiles and corrupted him
- 00:11:39making him give up on his filmmaking
- 00:11:41dreams to become a businessman and a
- 00:11:43politician it really is like some made
- 00:11:45up red pill Reddit storyline on top of
- 00:11:48that she has an affair baby whom Saint
- 00:11:50Andre adopts at the end out of nowhere
- 00:11:53yikes so she's just the worst piece of
- 00:11:56shitty trash a terrible woman the worst
- 00:11:58one imaginable No Redemption No Remorse
- 00:12:01no positive qualities at all just rage
- 00:12:03and hate and cruelty and he is our
- 00:12:05little cream puff sweetheart who was led
- 00:12:08astray by the power of Snooze new cringe
- 00:12:10and then there's Lila who's being set up
- 00:12:12to be the next big villain to replace
- 00:12:14Gabe and I would be very shocked based
- 00:12:16on the trajectory of her character if
- 00:12:18she ever gets the same treatment Escape
- 00:12:19where the writers try to make you
- 00:12:21understand the point of view that she
- 00:12:23has and then give a bit of a positive
- 00:12:24spin on them from time to time like Gabe
- 00:12:27and his pancakes Arc and the fact that
- 00:12:29he really does love his wife and does
- 00:12:31love his son to some extent and then we
- 00:12:33move on to the Arc of Chloe Who develops
- 00:12:35over the early Seasons into a sort of
- 00:12:37hero only to regress and regress really
- 00:12:40hard and become even worse than she ever
- 00:12:42was before and then on top of that they
- 00:12:43add new new flashback episodes that
- 00:12:46paint her as even worse than she was in
- 00:12:48season one through three so she goes
- 00:12:50from entitled bully to raging
- 00:12:53Audrey Jr in every single way her
- 00:12:55sympathetic relationship with her
- 00:12:56abusive mum it's washed away because now
- 00:12:59she's simply always been an awful person
- 00:13:01and then she gets that extreme Cosmic
- 00:13:04punishment from on high as she loses
- 00:13:06everything her only friends her home her
- 00:13:09father's love all of it feels like the
- 00:13:11writers are getting some sort of sick
- 00:13:13gratification out of writing the
- 00:13:15breakdown of a teenage girl it's a yikes
- 00:13:17from me dog but no I very much doubt
- 00:13:20they're going to give her the last
- 00:13:21second Redemption where she apologizes
- 00:13:23and realize she was wrong she's gonna go
- 00:13:24down with no regrets the only reason she
- 00:13:27might be remorseful is that she didn't
- 00:13:29manage to destroy marinette's life and
- 00:13:31that's not to mention kagami's mum who
- 00:13:34seems good for now right oh she's had a
- 00:13:36Redemption but she's doing all this good
- 00:13:38stuff no she came across as really
- 00:13:40terrible in the show and it's very
- 00:13:42obvious she's being set up to do some
- 00:13:43more terrible once the story
- 00:13:45continues her out of the blue change of
- 00:13:47heart very much feels like and
- 00:13:49I doubt there's going to be the same
- 00:13:50level of sympathy that's applied to her
- 00:13:52story as games either I'm happy to be
- 00:13:54wrong but I'm not convinced I mean
- 00:13:57yeah it's not necessarily bad riding
- 00:13:59right it's pretty generic in 2D at times
- 00:14:02but it wouldn't bother me if it was
- 00:14:04consistent if Gabe and Andre and Felix
- 00:14:08they were all treated as badly as these
- 00:14:10ladies are but they aren't they get to
- 00:14:13change they get people to trust them
- 00:14:15they get people to believe in them
- 00:14:17whereas the opposite is not true for the
- 00:14:19female characters and to me it just
- 00:14:21plays into so many bad tropes that I do
- 00:14:24not think have a place in a show that
- 00:14:25aims to empower young girls EG that
- 00:14:28abusive men which all three of these
- 00:14:30guys are to some extent can be fixed or
- 00:14:34misunderstood and need guidance and can
- 00:14:36earn Redemption because under it all
- 00:14:38they're just soft boys who need love
- 00:14:40yikes no thanks and meanwhile bad women
- 00:14:45they're the source of all evil we need
- 00:14:47to burn them at the stake we need to see
- 00:14:49their lives fall apart in great detail
- 00:14:51we need the karmic Justice to slap these
- 00:14:54in the face no mercy no
- 00:14:57forgiveness yikes yikes yikes red flags
- 00:15:00everywhere no thank you and so yeah
- 00:15:03that's all I've got for you today so
- 00:15:05with all that being said I think I'll
