Simping For the Buff Women Of Gender Swapped Twilight

[@fairycat23]

Beau, a bookish teenage boy, being surrounded by a bunch of far more interesting women is basically the plot of every harem anime.

I forgot about the awkwardness of Beau nearly getting killed in Seattle and it having to be foreshadowed and contrived. There's something weirdly Gender coming from SMeyer with the idea that being a girl means that you can be in danger wherever you go, from any man, but being a boy means it has to be set up for a /reason/. And there's something to be said there (I exist as a woman, I've felt that), but also damn, couldn't Beau just be randomly mugged? That happens to people.

[@JohnSmith-ch6pt]

Guys get into fights and/or get rolled all the time, walking home at all hours isnt recommended coz it does happen, it’s just that all the violence I’ve ever experienced put together isn’t as scary or unfair as Male on female violence. Being randomly mugged isn’t #deep enough though that’s totally low vibration behaviour.
