Hi everyone, welcome back! Today I'm diving into the fictional archetype of the 'femme fatale.' After watching the hit show 'Ginny and Georgia,' I wanted to further explore the origins of this archetype, the stereotypes that come with it and, of course, how that has affected our reality. I hope you enjoy!

The trope of the smart, attentive guy of color being left for a cold distant white dude with a slightly decent jawline is the best name for something that is the WORST. An abusive guy with anger issues whose constantly hot or cold isn't sexy its a red flag.

How I have interpreted that is not so much being a sexy woman in itself isn’t dangerous, but how it can be used to do dangerous things. I mean black widows are a thing for a reason. It’s about how a woman can use her looks in the right way to manipulate and destroy (mainly) men.

I've been trying to explain to my enlgish teacher but it was such a surface level debate that I gave up trying to have intelligent conversations. That's why I love this play so much lady Macbeth was coded to be a witch since they described her as deceitful, manipulative and domineering. In fact all the powerful women in Macbeth's life were portrayed as evil which is why I love the connection to lady m and the witches. Also another point: her ambition was seen as ruthlessness, her cunning nature was seen as too masculine and her violent description of her wanting to rid herself of the barrier that is gender was seen as it distorting her feminine virtues

"Male fantasies, male fantasies, is everything run by male fantasies? Up on a pedestal or down on your knees, it's all a male fantasy: that you're strong enough to take what they dish out, or else too weak to do anything about it. Even pretending you aren't catering to male fantasies is a male fantasy: pretending you're unseen, pretending you have a life of your own, that you can wash your feet and comb your hair unconscious of the ever-present watcher peering through the keyhole, peering through the keyhole in your own head, if nowhere else.

Okay but can we talk about how intelligent all the women in these comments are? Everyone is constructing such good arguments and I'm seeing things from so many different perspectives. The femme fatale is such an old trope that it has the power to be perceived a million different ways. I personally think that those that hate on women who use the system to reach the top are just as complicit in maintaining the system as the femme fatales who stop at the top and dont take their sisters with them but I've seen so many arguments about how the trope in the media is either rooted in Shakespeare-esque tragedy or in ancient Hebrew mythology and coated in misogyny that I'm encouraged to learn more. So not to fan girl but I love Tee Noir and I especially love the audience.

I agree! Here's my take on why people turn on the "femme-fatale" after they successfully reach their end-goal. The funny thing is most of the "femme-fatales" I've come across my life were not "feminist" in any way and were basically the stereotypical mean girl. They had deeply rooted misogyny towards other women, and only sought to favor men they wanted to manipulate if it meant getting the patriarchy to benefit them in some way. It was strange seeing them use feminist talking points/arguments to serve only themselves, but then turn around and deny women around them the very same thing they themselves fought for. And I mean straight up sabotage, betray, or harm the women around them in anyway to reap benefits at their victim's expense, and maintain the lifestyle they have (often through misogynistic means). I have no issue with "femme-fatales" screwing corrupt men over in their own patriarchal games, but when "femme fatales" resort to the same misogyny their counterparts inflict on women, I'm no longer a fan. Personally, I don't really find the "femme-fatale" trope empowering in any way. I just find the portrayal of characters to be 1-dimensional and toxic. I would get it if it was a more honest portrayal of these character's traits as whole, instead of portraying these characters into "good" or "evil" categories. I think Hollywood fails to showcase these characters as whole; women almost are always placed in either extreme - the "all good, innocent, damsel in distress", or some "all bad, evil, malicious, vindictive witch". In reality, women (and basically the rest of humanity) hold all sorts of traits/qualities.

People expect women to be humble for every little piece of success they have. We’re supposed to be beautiful and sexy but not know it because we’re so humble. We’re supposed to be smart but not to obvious because we’re so humble. It perpetuates the idea that we don’t inherently deserve good things to happen to us in life but rather that we need to go through hardships and trouble to earn a bit of happiness and success..

In high school I started wearing shirts with cleavage and heels, makeup, and walking with confidence and suddenly I was regarded as a bitch by people who had never spoken to me. Once I stopped wearing makeup and dressed more conservatively purely because school is always freezing, I’d mention how people assume I’m a bitch and other people would go “what I never thought that? That wasn’t my first impression” and such but just after I stopped sexualizing myself as much. I’ve talked to other pretty girls and this is very much a real phenomenon. We get called a bitch just for being pretty and confident at the same time. Our beauty can only be enjoyed by others.

People do this even if you AREN'T confident! I was really shy and self-conscious in school, but apparently because I liked to wear makeup and kept my hair long (part of my insecurities: I literally felt sick leaving the house if I didn't look "presentable" and also bc it was my way of hiding my depression) people who didn't even know me were like "yeah she's cold and weird and probably really self-absorbed." I also got called "frigid" *and* "slutty" at the SAME TIME, somehow 💀 a lot of it came from shitheaded guys but there were mean girls too. People really do just look at you and think they can write your entire biography. It's honestly kind of sad.

The femme fatale historically was used to "warn" women after the world war II. After the World War II women started getting jobs and becoming independents, so obviously some men at the time felt threatened and started making this idea of a "femme fatale" who is usually the antagonist of a movie and EVERYTHING "a wife shouldn't be". She is desirable and that's it. Women watching movies wanted to be "respectable ladies" so obviously they felt like the "femme fatale persona" was something they needed to avoid to attract the right man. The femme fatale is a sexist construct, she is an idea, she is purely sexual in most movies...she doesn't have dreams, parents, anything that makes her a real woman. Just remember Meghan Fox, she was the "femme fatale" of 2000 and no one wanted to give her serious gigs, they just wanted her face and body. I like that we live in a time where a woman in movies can be more than a face, for example in The Queen's Gambit. Beth would be considered femme fatale if the story was narrated by a man, she is mysterious, has her issues, and she's extremely gorgeous. But thankfully, we get to know her story from HER side💗

@@adaxx4103 Okay so reading comprehension is a struggle for you, noted. Femme fatales aren't real women they're fictional characters usually created by men, going all the way back before the bible. There's a reason it's called a trope. And these tropes rarely reflect real women because women are multi faceted complex people, and femme fatale characters, and damsels in distress, are often depicted with very narrow personalities and motivations, reducing them for the male gaze or to propagate patriarchal ideals. Moreover, emulating or attempting to emulate such a reductive archetype is counterproductive, and definitely not a goal women should be striving for especially considering the inevitable backlash and consequence that it results in.

In Ginny and Georgia, she obviously had to be biracial because her parents are different races, but in other shows there are barely any monoracial Black/dark-skinned female main characters. Netflix is just seems obsessed with light-skinned people in general. I guess it's their "preference." The first thing that comes to mind is #RealityHigh.

I always felt like the femme fatale was a manifestation of male fears about female sexuality, given how the trope was definitely created by men, and how old it is (like, going back to pre-biblical times. One of the first known femme fatale is said to be Lilith, a demon from ancient hebrew mythology). A woman who owns her sexuality on her own terms is the ultimate threat to the patriarchy, which needs to subjugate women's sexualities for it's own gain in order to sustain itself, so a woman character using her sexuality to get ahead has to be an evil character. That's why she's often played in direct contrast to the 'damsel in distress' who is demure, subservient, and sexual only at the behest of men. I suppose that's also why she always gets a tragic end or "learns her lesson".

@@Alina_Schmidt For me, it's not even about that. There are rl materialistic people and transactional relationships. I don't think patriarchy created them, and I think such people and relationships would exist in a society free of patriarchal baggage. My point is rather: it's not for me to judge and project my concept of happiness onto other people,. And that's what the tropes I mentioned are missing: 1) the perspective that the relationships these women have are not exploitative - the men too are getting something they want out of this, she is not a victimizer, he is not a victim, 2) it's not "evil" if it's a mutual understanding / transaction / consent, the women aren't acting at the expense of someone else, transactional relationships are not something to be looked down upon or judged. Most importantly, we need more female tropes that depict women (in power), who don't indulge in materialism and/or transactional relationships and/or exploitation, because, while there are women like that either due to patriarchy or due to their own volition, there's way more women who are not like that. .. and less depictions of the notion that whenever a woman is clever, talented, strong, attractive etc., she'd "automatically" "need" or "want" to _use_ men and other women, to achieve her goals or get into a position of power or wealth or respect. Here, I definitely agree with you that patriarchy is at play.

Probably because her femininity isn't a plot device. She's a capable officer and survivalist who happens to be female. She shows realistic, relatable human traits as well as classically perceived as "female" traits, and these aren't portrayed as "tools" or "skills" she or anyone else exploits, neither as handicaps or advantages. I also like Annalise Keating/Harkness from How to get away with murder. Not that I identify with her, but I liked how her character was written exploring elements of female tropes, but without reducing her to a trope. Mind you, I've only watched the first 2 or 3 seasons, so I have no clue about her further character progression.

I really like the way Crazy ex girlfriend deconstructed the femme fatal trope. The main character Rebecca is deeply hurt by something that her ex did, and she vows to get revenge and she spends a few episodes trying, but it’s clear to literally everyone around her that all her actions are more self destructive than hurting the person she’s sworn to get revenge on. After like 4 episodes this basically crashes and burns in an amazing but completely self destructive way, and the rest of the series has a lot of focus on her healing. It’s almost completely centred around Rebecca and why she feels this way and her actions, rather than the guy she’s getting revenge over and it’s done with such respect.

The making of a pick me starts in the home with these same principles which we see our own mothers displaying with the internalised misogyny they were taught from birth. The way they make the women villains actually shows the power women have in many ways to the extent that they can destroy the stronghold these religions and cultural norms have in society.

You cannot blame it on men alone but men alone die in wars thats my point. Men love all people, animals, cultures not just their children as is the case for women. If woman are soo 'good' why dont they adopt little kids instead of having sex then carrying it for 9 months then getting your vagina destroyed? The answer is they are selfish to a degree (just the slightest) and cannot love unconditionally as they say unless it's their own flesh and blood. Men, I'll say again, have a greater burden. Not all men, some are useless.

Thing is, when Lori started doing what she was doing- everyone started praising her for it and I was confused. They were like oh my gosh Lori is so smart not letting these men treat her any way and I'm like?? Thats the standard lol, shes not supposed to instantly become a baby mama or straggle on for six extra months looking foolish on social media. Lori is a woman that does what she is supposed to when she is not being treated right and now she found someone who is! And I thought every one knew thats how it was supposed to be but😴

Another "femme fatale" who was really well-written, at least in my mind as a 16-year-old loser girl mind, would be Meg from the Hercules movie. I saw a really good video on it and I'll come back and edit this comment adding a link to it, but It really just broke down how badass Meg really was and how she did eventually fall in love with Hercules, but in no way did she stop being a badass, as well as showed her damsel side that still lurked under the surface from her past.

It was! It started off as the Jezebel in the 20s and 30s who would lure men away from traditional values like marriage. A lot of this tension was constructed geographically in terms of the city vs the country. By the introduction of the production code (Hollywood censorship code), a lot of filmmakers were limited to writing about amoral characters as long as they got their comeuppance at the end. So sexually liberated women could only be written about if they were punished by the end of the film to be green lit and not censored. And this carries on with the femme fatale trope in the film noir era where women who exercised their right to be sexual beings were killed at the end of the movie.

Ugh, thank you for bringing up women hating on women because they embrace their beauty and sexuality. I will never forgive myself for hating on famous, beautiful, female figures simply because I was envious. Meghan Fox is the first example that comes to my mind. But, I was super young when that happened so I understand it wasn't completely my fault, still, not my proudest moment. I would also like to bring up the fact that this starts FUCKING YOUNG!! EVER SINCE I WAS A 4 YEAR OLD I WAS TRYING TO GAIN APPROVAL FROM MEEEEEEEEEEN!!! AAAAAAAAAARGH! All I wanted was to be accepted, so I dressed more masculine, I tried playing games at recess that were "boy sports", AND I STILL DO IT!!! I don't even feel comfortable with my own femininity anymore because my dad was always telling me that I couldn't wear certain clothing because "they were too tight". HE ALMOST KEPT ME HOME FROM SCHOOL BECAUSE MY SHORTS WERE TOO SHORT!! I WAS IN FOURTH GRADE!!!. This is all rooted in sexism (as you said) and we need to start teaching parents not to tell their young children they can't wear certain things "because they're concerned for their sAfEty" Hey, maybe make the world fucking safer instead of letting young kids wrestle with the consequences! FUCK! Anyway, awesome video, as always, have a good day.

She told me she asked him if she could wear fake eye-lashes and he was like "I'll think about it .3." and then he forgot so she just bought loll cuz she didn't care anymore😭 Forchently when she went to college she didn't have anymore restrictions and could wear what she wanted

I feel like this narrative of women hating more successful or more beautiful women is also a narrative created by men to keep women behind. Why cant we accept that there are many different beauty standards and that not only a single body type should be celebrated? Also as a women I don't hate on other more beautiful or more successful women because it simply is a waste of time and has No real value. What personally frustrates me is expecting other women to constantly be cheering on other women simply because they are not pretty enough or don't make the cut. Everyone has their own lives and needs and we cannot always be the ones cheering for others like it's our job. I never see these pretty girls getting called out somehow its always the average normal women. Its exhausting.

One petpeeve I have with the "Femme Fatal"? She is meant to be a tough, and independant woman...Yet in 99% of plots she is used as a Honeypot. Literally her "strength" is only used as it relates to male desires. Like can we get a Lucy Lawless again (Xena)? Cause the Black Widow type is overdone..... Edit: Oh yes, now ya mention it... the "tamed wild horse" is annoying AF. Hence why I liked Erin Brochavich. She stayed kinda trailor trash and sexy but learned to balance t with professionalism, and as a result she takes on one of the nations largest class action suits AND WINS! Bonus (possibly why she is less toxic then other femme fetals as well), Erin is based on a real world woman. One tough as nails, able to care for her kids, display her body with pride and not afraid to go waaaay beyond her comfort zone to achieve a seemingly impossible task.

Also a real life femme is Cleopatra. Contrary to what the entertainment industry has portrayed her she wasn't by the definition of the time attractive. What she was, was extremely intelligent ans more educated than most men as well as fluent in multiple languages. She used her intelligence, charm to disarm and enchant the men around her so she could retain her power. The idea that a seemingly unattractive woman could hold any type of power and control over men is unbelievable to men and their ego so they rewrote history in the retelling of her story to diminish her intelligence and hype up her sexuality.

She *never* once referenced being called "that bitch" in her speech. Her speech was entirely about people who try and take credit for your success. Her speech was about Kanye line saying he made her famous- i.e. people who "take credit for your accomplishments or your fame" *not* about people who use the term that bitch, a word that was never once mentioned in her speech. She did not make a speech about how people should use the word bitch, nor did she make a speech about how people shouldn't use sexist or derogatory terms, she made a speech about how people shouldn't take credit for your accomplishments. Except she had already literally gave Kanye her blessing to say he made her famous i.e. to "take credit for your accomplishments or your fame." It was fake outrage about him taking credit for her success despite her literally approving of him doing just that. She only switched the narrative after the video came out. An obvious backtrack which makes zero sense as her statement after the video does not track at all with the speech she made. Her grievances in her speech were completely different to her supposed grievance after the video came out. It's pretty hard to continue to pretend to be upset that someone took "credit for your accomplishments or your fame" after we all watched a video of you literally telling them they could do just that. So instead she pretended that all along her argument was that she upset that he called her that bitch, except it wasn't and all you have to do is look at the speech transcript and see that for yourself. Show me the term "that bitch" in her original speech. You can't. You cannot rewrite her speech or history. She said what she said and it had literally nothing to with him calling her that bitch, it had to do with him taking "credit for your accomplishments or your fame" which was pretty odd considering she approved of him doing just that.

She just didn't give her the satisfaction of getting angry or cussing her out. And I admire that about her.💕

I would love for a whole video on the question/ statement you posed at around 7:20. “ how we as society view women who make their sexuality a permanent part of their womanhood” because I think a lot of women still struggle with this idea.

This is why I like Irene Adler on Sherlock because it's made clear that she's just as smart as Sherlock and that her power comes from her awareness and her own intelligence rather than a dependence on men. It's revealed that she isn't even attracted to men, but what's significant is that she understands how to utilize sex to access a position that men cannot.

Do you mean how she’s portrayed in the book? In the show, it was all well and good until Irene, proven by the show’s past hour of runtime to be an absolute genius, suddenly became a silly, lovestruck girl who just couldn’t help but set her crush’s name as her phone password 😒

And when you explain to them that this time it's for violence against women they go off. Rolls eyes. At this point I'm tired of this. Cause nobody ever said we never cared about violence against men. I hate it how when a group of persons or an individual goes through something traumatic or hurtful there is always people talking bout oh, that's the least there is this issue too. Or you're whining too much as blah blah has issues too. I just can't with the bull.

The Femme Fatale is an archetype that really can't be separated from fragile masculinity (at least in terms of its origin). So many things wrapped up in fears of castration, it really is a Freudian field day.
