can we stop the father threatening his daughter’s boyfriend trope? and the dads don’t know how to take care of their kids when their wives are gone trope? and the virgin males are always awkward and geeks trope? and the bachelor who can’t take care of himself without a mother and/or wife trope? and the husband sees any attractive woman and has to cheat on his wife trope? and the if a boy is interested in you then he is just trying to get into your pants at any cost trope? and the boy who wears nail polish or likes theatre has to be gay and therefore “weak” trope?
can we stop hypermasculine tropes in media?
also the married men are miserable because they’re “tied down” or have to spend time with their wives.
yeah all the time in fact in my latest Japanese essay I got 0% because I wrote the entire thing in Spanish and my parents are getting increasingly frustrated because I keep talking to them in German rather than British Sign Language
my friend is fluent in english, french, italian, portugese, german, dutch, russian and is learning spanish and latvian, and the other day he went into starbucks in england, ordered a latte in german, corrected himself in dutch and the poor barista looked at him in terror
I wrote the entire WRITTEN EXPRESSION part of my Spanish test in French, read over the whole exam like 3 times and didn’t notice
my friend has like 7 or 8 siblings and they’re all fluent in about 6 or 7 languages, and they’ll all be spitting out sentences and remarks and requests in different languages and their parents get so confused. One of them handed in an AP test that started in german and ended in italian
Goals
Wish I could fuck up this gloriously.
In biology during jeopardy I started writing down the answers in Russian and calling them out in French that was Hell
All I ever wanted was this lifestyle
In college, I discovered there were a couple other students who’d taken French and Japanese, and we started a conversation in French, then ended in Japanese.
