@@slipperyeel9206a child cannot groom an adult… she craved positive male affection and was a girl, she didn’t know better, ofc she thought it was appropriate for a teacher to spend that much one on one time with her- crazy that no one especially the counselor at the Ostroff center told her that even if he didn’t do anything that should’ve “landed him in prison” the relationship he has was Serena was still inappropriate and he crossed state lines with a minor which just shows he was crossing lines.

Literal predators the show likes to make you forget: CHUCK, Jack, Ben, did I mention CHUCK, Nate.. let us forget how he dates a minor in the last season… I blame the writers mostly, but we, just because they are characters doesn’t mean we should ever defend or support predatory and abusive behavior.

[@janedoe7658]

Chuck: attempts to RAPE Jenny and Serena, treats many women like property, makes lots of rape jokes, even tho it was consensual- took advantage of Jenny WHILE SHE WAS STILL IN HIGHSCHOOL, tries to trade sex with his girlfriend for a hotel with his uncle, gets physical with Blair when she gets engaged to another man, continues to stalk her and doesn’t leave her alone through the show the many times she asks him to- Blair literally says how her whole body, her gut tells her that he is not good for her and to get away from him… yet he continues to pull her in through the abusive tactics and it’s called romantic and passion. I used to be their number 1 shipper, I loved Chuck because the writers want us to… but then I started to learn about rape culture, I started to see first hand abusive relationships and then I was my show with my beloved couple and character and truly became heartbroken to realize Chuck and Damon (tvd) are both predators and should not be glorified as they are

[@janedoe7658]

Jack… has sex with Blair when she was barely 18 and he was in his 30s.. she was still in highschool… I Mean come on, none of his one liners can be funny enough to make that okay. He attempts to rape Lilly bass, and never apologizes. Let’s not forget the attempted rapes. He then tried to use sex with Blair as a way to torture his nephew… and the last but maybe one of the worsts.. consistently takes Chuck as minor to adult women to have sex with and encouraged it, watches it, and allows his nephew to get sexually assaulted. Chuck was a minor, underaged, black out unable to consent, and his uncle let these people sexually assault him. Chuck may not understand, but it doesn’t make it okay.

[@janedoe7658]

Ben… Ben Ben Ben… I’m pretty sure I already commented on Someone else’s comment … but Ben was grooming Serena, intentionally or not. She was a girl, 15 years old and he had to be at least 23 but most likely older… spending that much one on one time, crossing state lines… He may have not necessarily deserved prison time yet, but let’s emphasize part yet part, let’s also recognize that he definitely crossed the line. That the counselor Serena talk to should have apologized and let Serena know that maybe he didn’t deserve prison, yet, yet, but what he did was still super unappropriate. That she was looking for positive male figures, and when he proved to one, he took advantage of that.

[@janedoe7658]

I feel bad for Nate, the amount of women who prayed on him was not OK. However, that does not make it OK for him in that last season to date a highschooler, a minor I don’t care if she’s 17 that’s not OK That’s a massive age Difference is completely inappropriate.

[@nathanbanks5155]

Also, you have Georgina and Cyrus in the same tier ... I love it. Exactly right

[@thehuntsman8341]

Eric was originally meant to be Gossip Girl. The executive producers confirmed it, but they started running out of storyline for him, and he went off to star in revenge. I don't understand why they couldn't bring him back the last couple of episodes. He would have made a lot more sense than Dan.

[@marple4830]

[@jennieballard2905]

Yes Team Jenny Humphrey! An INSPIRATION Also don’t understand the Vanessa dislike at all?! Love her and they all make mistakes so although she was wrong to steal the letter- he without sin cast the firsts stone x As a traumatised adult from a toxic relationship I am torn between Chuck being bottom tier and also liking him (taking away his terrible terrible qualities), but as someone who was in a toxic relationship, Gossip Girl deffo romanticised this for me and watching it back as an adult I’m just like?! Can’t believe i used to post this toxic couple and quotes on my Ig. Eric would have to be top tier (I’m only up to dorota I think) Oh and Raina and Nate would have been GREAT as a timejump endgame! I so ship Rufus and Lily.

[@marple4830]

I've been where you are but since all the characters and 99% of the relationships were toxic, Chuck had incredible development with the best arcs and proper storlyines in my eyes, I think it's fine to like him rather than resting. It's a television show and they were the best couple with insane chemistry.

By your own criteria, Rufus also has to be moved to Literal Predator. I'm sorry, I haven't finished watching yet, but you moved William VDW to Literal Predator when you realized that he was sleeping with Ivy, who was more than 20 years younger than he was. She was also sleeping with Rufus at that time. He had to have been at least 20 years older than her if everything we were told up until that point was true: Scott's birth, Charlie's birth, William and Lily's marriage, everything supports the probability that Rufus was at least 20 years older than Ivy when they were in a sexual relationship together.

Yass I loved your ratings for Jenny and Ivy!! Call me biased, they were my absolute favourite characters, honestly, for me Jenny and Ivy were the most relatable characters for the whole of the show to me, probably because of my personal experiences, but I feel like they really made a massive impact on the show and I’ll always say that. It’s not fair that they are both so heavily villainised and hated, they are literally god tier characters. Honestly, I can’t remember Ivy turning a bit evil towards the end of the show but I do remember her turning cold because of how evil Lily was (omg I hate Lily!! Worst character ever😂) and to be fair I might have done the same thing trying to get my own back on Lily if I was Ivy when they’re at the art gallery and maybe I still have my rose tinted glasses on with her and her original storyline, gosh that was so powerful how she just wanted to be loved, I really feel that pain.
