still murky but it could’ve spurred a much needed conversation abt informed consent

@@pitpat2928 i agree. i think the storyline itself doesn't leave a lot of room for honest sexual conduct but the show writers really dropped the ball with their rendition

@Charisma Girl Who cares that the story is set in the historical past? We are viewing it in the PRESENT, why not uphold our morality to the things we watch. The creators of Bridgerton took the liberty to include different races in their royal figures, which was extremely well-received and a lot of the show's draw. So why not extend the modernity they were willing uphold to the sexual conduct of their characters as well? You wrote all that to excuse outdated r*pey ass ideas of sex. We can appreciate the aesthetics and dramatics of the Regency era without triggering watchers with scenes like that. Also, being a sexual "aggressor" is still being a r*pist, let's not jump through hoops here.

@Charisma Girl that was a lot of words to say you don’t realize outdated ideas of consent and relationships still affect the present. this isnt a piece of literature from the 1800s a modern woman wrote and adapted this and the situation isnt even farfetched! plenty of women still (as in these present times) enter relationships and marriages with little to no sexual experience or education bc of religion and purity culture. stop acting like rape is a thing of the past

or they should keep the rape scene and have simon struggle with his emotions towards what happened and clearly show that theres a double standard when it comes to rape especially at that time period have simon struggle at speaking out because most people dont view men as being able to be raped

Same

Lol

I almost threw my phone and I was watching the video on TV 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Make it merch make it merch.

Same 🤣🤣🤣

I Honestly thought the same when they introduced Mr Granville and him comforting and telling Art is all about perception and making feeling confident about his art. Then taking him to his hideaway but only make his secret keeper. Wasted potential

oh i love the picture of dorian gray! it needs more retellings or references in other media (e.g. what you suggested with benedict and the painter)

Hyper straight? What the fu-

I don't think it's hyper straight lol. It's just a straight show💀

why do you people always want everything to be gay?

Oml yes this would have been so much better. Like there was no need for that scene, this would’ve been so much better

Right? And have him get all huffy and mad and be like that's impossible!

that's literally what they should have done idk why the directors put in such an unecessary scene. it kinda ruined the rest of the show for me (when i loved the first 5ish episodes)

I agree that would have been better and would have created more interest and drama in the show. Oh well.

I completely disagree: I don't agree with the idea that SA scenes or motives should be eliminated from books or even have some special treatment. I see how this series has been heavily, heavily chritizised for including one such scene but frankly it is through those scenes that we get to feel disgust, to condemn, to loathe a character and their actions. To fully feel the extent within ourselves of how very difficult it is to get through even a reading of this, and how disgusting it is to see it through the eyes of the perpetrator. Nevertheless erasing these scenes in fictional media, or specially written fictional texts, erases our capability to have a story that deals with such themes and that allows us to explore them, as disgusting and horrifying as they might be. By reducing SA to a plot device we don't get to explore in our art and in our media the trauma and reprecaussions that such an experience can bring upon anybody. Although I suspect the books missed the mark, exploring Simon's trauma and the trauma of having children be born from one of the worst experiences of your life would be very interesting to dissect and to explore. We need art be able to represent, explain, dissect, argument, present human experiences. Not because a negative experience is portrayed should the work be condemned.

RED EYE (2005) FULL MOVIE - Rachel McAdams what movie name

Brandy’s Cinderella gave a literal blue print in how to colorblind cast and NO ONE IS TAKING THE HINT😭 They also tricked us in the trailer by putting that one Asian person in it 🙄 Race-baiting at its finest

@Lollihaste @Stephanie Lamonthe THISSS

@@TheDarkAgez 👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 That version of Cinderella is ICONIC! It's a whole moment, and yet nobody learned from it 🤦🏿

@@tosinakin2508 the crazy thing is Shondaland *has* done the Brandy Cinderella version of Colourblind Casting and did it so well! Still Star Crossed had totally colourblind casting and the cast was absolutely fire and it was super campy and dramatic and interesting and it got cancelled after one season and it was a total injustice. And when I saw they were doing diverse casting in Bridgerton I was like "oh okay they're doing the same thing as SSC awesome" but then the "love magically insta!cured racism" plotline got dropped and it was very confusing. Took me a couple of minutes to get back into the swing of the episode. Especially since the *only* conversations had about race are isolated to Simon's dad's obsession with being good enough. Literally no one else brings it up except in that context. Which basically makes it look like racism only exists in Simon's dad's head??? Which is certainly not where they wanted to end up I think but it's where we got to.

Same here!

I looked down at my screen after not paying attention to the comments and thought there was a bug on my screen.

Since we're closer to the release of Polin's season, I'll share what I think about everything to do with Penelope's glow up because there are people who think Nicola lost weight for her season and I don't agree with that. Her hair, makeup and outfit are way more flattering for her. Her hair is more flowy and romantic compared to her original hairstyles. Her makeup is less powdery and more glowy. Her skin looks so beautiful and fresh. Her outfits are the main thing that makes sense to why she's so different. Her S1 and S2 looks are frumpy and stifling looking and isn't flattering. It's very huddled and hobbled on her. Her boobs are out more and the fabric is thinner and fits her body better than her original dresses. The colour is also so beautiful on her, compared to the yellow that she wore.

To add on, I think people just assume just cause she is working out she is working out to lose weight and not just maintain a more active lifestyle? Like the fatphobia amongst some people is appalling@@pettybee3860

REALLY loving how her ‘makeover’ was done. It wasn’t a giant change, just subtle enough to bring out all the positive qualities that her mothers misguided attempts had hidden

Maybe it's just me but I am so tired of curvy women being portrayed as social outcast like Penelope why couldn't another curvy actress play a diamond 💎 of the season adored in her society with a strong love interest like Daphne or Edwina. In addition have a dark skin black women that's a lead and isn't made to suffer like Marina or an older woman like Lady D.

@@thandondlovu5392 fr and back then wasnt curvy/fat viewed differently? not solely in the negative way it is now

I swear every guy on the cover looks exactly the same

I totally agree! I just finished the 5th book last night and (unlike books 2-4) I could not get behind the romance at all!

Yeah, I hope so too. She literally spends most of her time complaining about how she wants more out of life and how she wants to be free like Lady Whistledown. Yet she instead just travels to meet a man she’s never met before to settle down and become a mother. Like, isn’t that what she’s been protesting about the whole time? I think it would have been great for her to become independent and lead her own life. It would also have been a great way to show how the Bridgerton family would grow as they learn to accept that that’s what she wanted.

Though is not unrealistic to see amazing women with horrible male partners. It's very sad.

I very much hope they come up with another person for Eloise to choose to be with. Killing off Marina like that is not acceptable.

I thought they were portraying her as a lesbian that was in love with Pen but knowing about the HETERONORMATIVITY in the books makes me lose hope :(

Haven’t watched the show, but I read a bunch of Reddit threads discussing the scene and I was shocked at the bunch of comments going “He could’ve just pushed her off” Jesus Christ

I asked my Mum, a Bridgerton fan, about that rape scene, and got the horrifying answer of "it couldn't have been rape because men can't get raped there wouldn't be anything going on down there if they weren't into it". What the hell Mum. It was really out of left field as well she isn't usually a bad person I swear.

It's cause she's a little white girl and he's a big black man. People dehumanize his plight. Fucked up.

In the show I'm not really sure if I'd call it rape but rather betrayal, to be honest. It's not sex against his will (quite the opposite). Though she suspects by then, he never told her that he doesn't want to spend himself inside her and apart from the last time before the scene in question she doesn't even realise that what he's doing is unusual. And he knows she doesn't know it. Still it clearly is a betrayal on her part (especially because of her suspicion) and it is most definitivly wrong, but the story leading up to it with his prior betrayal explains it a little. Also: to call two seconds of him realising she won't let him pull out (all the while never telling her that that's his intention) rape, kind of diminishes actual rape victims. How they resolve it is another matter altogether. She makes it all about her and eventually forgives him - she should realise what she's done and ask his forgiveness instead. I haven't read the book but having sex with an inebriated, unconscious partner definitely is rape, so they could have (should have) changed that scene in the show completely or at least acknowledged her fault in the fallout.

@@miralyse.3846 naw baby that’s rape. This man said “daphne stop” at LEAST twice and she kept going. If a man was on top of a woman and she said stop, but he physically kept her from moving away, all in an effort to force her to give him a baby, everyone would be screeching. Daphne raped him period. And I’m saying this as someone who loved Bridgerton

This would be interesting.

id actually like to see that!! the showrunners are clearly allowed to deviate from the books so its not like philip being written out of the universe is unable to happen

That would make sense as to why, Marina isn’t the Bridgerton’s cousin.

that would be SO good!!!! how can we get netflix to hire you so this happens 😈

I want Eloise to get a smart girlfriend!

I read a lot of romance, and I can confirm this is so common it's almost unsettling.

Agreed at least one romance novel a week, and yes pretty much all of the male love interests have daddy issues.

Wow it's honestly a really good title lmao

I personally think 'My sister's suitor' sounds much more mediocre. Like it just sounds too bland. I like the original title, i think it's anything but mediocre. But meh, we all have our opinions.

Thing is, in the book, he never gets as far as even courting her. He only talks about courting Edwina to Kate

It wouldn't have made sense because in the books he doesn't actually have a relationship with Edwina. She's not an integral character at all. It was mostly about him and Kate. The show changes that but the book is different

@@Grimm_Simmer in the book yes 😭😭😭

i’ve read her book and she mentioned losing about 2 stone (which i’m not really sure how much that is), but immediately after she mentioned that she’s still not exactly skinny either. so for pretty much the whole book i just pictured her the same because i wasn’t sure how much weight she was supposed to have lost. also her losing weight didn’t seem to have any affect on how people perceived her, it wasn’t like some glamorous makeover montage.

@@briannasalt240 one stone is 14lbs, so two is 28, hope that helps

I do find it ironic that the "Sanditon" PBS/BBC series- which was based on the half a chapter or whatever that Austen finished and then the writers made up the rest, didn't get picked up for a Season 2 because "people just couldn't handle seeing characters having sex in the Regency" and then two years later BOOM Bridgerton. I'd be mad if I were Sanditon folks.

Jane Austen wrote 12 chapters of Sanditon.

@@mariem24601 It's not that people can't handle characters having sex during the Regency period (hello Willoughby, Wickham and Henry Crawford) - it's that the "Sanditon" series did not honour Jane Austen's legacy at all. The plot, characters, tone were contrary to anything Jane Austen had ever written.

As a Jane Austen fan, I'm totally with you. People have been talking about Bridgerton as if it's this magical world that brings them into an Austen's novel, but watching it just made me... mad. Like, most important plot points are forced and out of nowhere from episode 1, not to even mention all the problematic bullshit... It's sort of entertaining, but not like anything from Austen. The only good outcome is that the show made me miss P&P and go re-read it for the millionth time to enjoy a true good regency romance.

Even while I was watching the series I was confused as to why the series was acting as him pulling during the act meant he would never get Daphne pregnant, when pulling out is infamously not a fool proof method. They could have had it that they countimued to have realtions, Daphne appears to become pregnant and this terribly upsets Simon, which confuses her becuase from her perspective she just thouhgt they were having normal relations. And then she is made aware as to the nature of sexual relations and why he was pulling out. They could have side stepped that unpleasant plot point easily

The ONLY exception is Gregory and he's not even that much of an exception

Also you are absolutely right. Books written in the 1800s are completely different than historical romances set in the 1800s. Our modern romances are VERY formulaic, and there is nothing wrong with that. It is very satisfying and easy to read these kinds of books. But the books written in the 1800s that we consume now, like books by Jane Austen or the Bronte sisters, are more like the modern classics like To Kill a Mockingbird or The Joy Luck Club or even books by Isabel Allende. Like Jane Austen's books may be romances, but they are also books that offer social critique and an analyzation of society at the time, and were written before there was even a formula for romance books.

Chiming in to agree that some of Julia's complaints are just literally Romance genre rules/tropes, while others are problems more prevalent in '00s era romance that some more modern historical Romance does better. Re: crushing heteronormativity try Cat Sebastian Re: if they're going to talk like modern men why are they misogynyst try Tessa Dare Re: no lives outside of romance, it's a different era but try Courtney Milan And I'm not as familiar with diversity in Hist. Rom. set in England but Beverley Jenkins and Alyssa Cole have some great Black Romance set in the American South and the American West. But yeah, kiss or first love scene ~50%, something tearing then apart between 70&80%, but reconciliation and a happy ending by 90%? That's genre conventions. (Pop Culture Happy Hour just did an intro to genre Romance episode that mentions this.)

apparently it clashes with her complexion or smth. which, yeah to be fair clothes colour vs skin complexion can be an issue but even i don't think it should be _that_ bad and penelope is me favourite bridgerton lead, lol.

yeah her mom would only let her wear yellow bc "youre ugly and theyll only like you when you wear yellow because yellow is a happy color"

My thought was maybe it was considered a...babyish color? Like her mother made her wear a childish color past childhood, or ONLY wearing a single color past childhood. Like everyone could tell her mother was dressing her cause she ONLY EVER wore yellow

It's also very shouty and kind of campy in comparison to the other ladies wearing lots of pastel blue and pink and whites so it's meant to set the featheringtons apart as kind of trashy

It doesn’t look good on her so people laugh at her.

I thought it was a thing for writers where, if you can use anything other than rape, you probably shouldn't use rape? Does that seriously only apply to media featuring women being raped?

@@queen-monarch See, you know what the thing is? With the way it played out, I don't think the writers even consider it rape.

Absolutely, she doesn't seem to understand the appeal of dating men which says to me that she's not attracted to them

idk I think of her as more aromantic because she always expresses about marriage and relationships and it just so happened that men have to clumped up with that due to the times. but I can definitely see why people see her as a lesbian

Its so sad she ends up with a boring and cold man in the books. She deserves someone like an equal who will travel with her and understand her.

I absolutely love Leigh bardugo and I'm such a big fan... lately I tried to get past my addiction over soc and ck but suddenly this book pops up out of nowhere again and reminds me of the crow's again AND getting war flash backs because of Matthias.

And these 8 books were written over a decade - most genre series are expecting to be rinse and repeat and that what the fans demand. Just ask genre authors who have tried to change gears....

yeah they are switching up the order- Pen and Colin are the main focus of season 3, and since Benedict and Sophie’s romance has a timeskip, I think it’ll be spread out a bit over 3 and 4 a

I think it was sort of a joke. Penelope isn't classically beautiful and is forced to wear clothes with shapes and colors that aren't flattering which worsens her already low self-confidence. And she lives in a shallow society, where women's worth IS judged by their appearance (and their dowry). But mostly, she is emotionally abused by her mother and older sisters. She is also bullied by local Alpha-bitch Cressida. In the book she at least has the support of her younger sister, Felicity, her best friend Eloise, and the Bridgerton clan. In the show the emotional abuse from her mother and sisters is worse, Felicity doesn't exist and Eloise is well-meaning but she is too self-centered and judgmental and isn't exactly the best of friends. So yeah...
