I started rewatching the winx series and (questionable) movies, so of course, the spying tik tok app found that out and started showing my videos people made about winx who are in the fandom. And holy shit what is wrong with these people. At least most of them (I think) have common sense and just watch it because it's fun- but then you get the other side. So here is my list basically that is what I've seen from the fandom, that I personally think is so dumb and lowkey mysoginistic. I will also mention things from the show.
1. They say Bloom is the worst character.
This is simply not true. I remember I asked in a comment section on why people think this, and I was just baffled. "She fat shames girls" bro- all their eyes are bigger than their waists, all the girls look like vogue models, all of them fat shame, the show was created by a man, they dress like Italian show girls and in the first few seasons it's very obvious that they all are made to like attention from men. Bloom is not the only one. Oh and "she's a pick me" SHE'S THE MAIN CHARACTER???? And hot take (I guess) STELLA IS WAY WORSE. SHE IS WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY, WAY WORSE. DID WE WATCH THE SAME SHOW!??? And that scene where Bloom got jealous because of how Layla/ Aisha acted with Sky, I know damn well ya'll would be jealous too- STELLA WOULD DEFINITELY GET JEALOUS. But the Stella fans still piss their pants the same colour as Stella's hair trying to convince you she gets better.
2. They say Tecna is the worst character and/or the ugliest.
This is also, not true. I fear you fell for the mysoginistic way she was designed. Tecna had been given the unlikeable smart computer girl trope. She's very smart and very good with computers, so of course she's a tomboy, so of course she doesn't get short skirts or long flowy hair like every other character does. Why? Because it's a misogynstic trope! :D Her literal og outfit is so boring and I definitely think it was on purpose. She is completely covered from head to toe except for her face, meanwhile the others are basically in bikini's. She's got short hair (that is so cute btw) that looks like a boyish hairstyle because of course computer girls can't look feminine, it's a man's job (I'm being sarcastic if you couldn't tell)! Tecna has the most boring design, because it was a misogynistic decision. I still think Tecna looks so cute, of course I do, I have literally nothing against her, but I do have something against the people who hate on her character and the people who created her character this way because I know damn well why they chose to make her this way and so different from the other girls.
3. "Pretty girls liked (insert winx character) and (insert winx character)"
The people debating in those comment sections under those videos pisses me off so much. The video is dumb too. The winx fandom and creator LOVES putting the girls against eachother, I swear. And then when anyone says Tecna is their favourite, people in the replies fuckin' piss their pants denying all of it. Or then say shit about Bloom (I may be biased lowk, considering she's my favourite, but I still think the critisim is stupid when the whole show is contructed from weird misogynistic ideas) being the worst. And then of course the arrogant Stella lovers start creaming their pants trying to convince you Stella is perfect (when she's literally such an asshole, not always, but it isn't hard to find a clip of her being one, yet she's still somehow a favourite). Then you get people who like Musa trying to be different and act like she's underrated. Then you get people who love Flora who are the same breed as people who say they're "Just like Fluttershy!", like, no dude, you have one vase filled with flowers in your room and it's dying already, you sniffed a flower once, you went outside one time. You are not Flora, baby girl, you don't give a fuck about nature like you think you do. Oh and then you have the Layla/ Aisha fans, they always think they're superior somehow, I don't even know how, but they always manage to be. Layla/ Aisha fans aren't as bad though. I have to give them some slack because she lowkey gets whitewashed by the end of it. Flora also lowkey gets whitewashed, and so does Musa I think. So I have to give those fans some slack. But NOT TO STELLA FANS AND NEVER TO STELLA. The fandom pisses me off so much, y'all don't get it. It's rooted in biases, misogyny and utter blind stupidity + internalized misogyny (I'm looking at you, Stella).
Anyways here's my winx club tierlist (not a tier list, just 1 is the best, last is the worst) because y'all piss me off
1. Bloom
2. Flora
3. Tecna
4. Aisha
5. Musa (I love her, I promise, I love that she's a music girlie, but idk)
6. Stella
Boyfriend tier list because I can, even if I forgot a lot about them because I don't really care about them, they actually kinda piss me off
1. Riven (he's hot, Musa has great taste stfu).
2. Helia (bet he's a freak).
3. Nabu (I forgot what he's like in the series, he just looked cute in the movie that came out after he died in the series).
4. Timmy (TIMMAYYY).
5. Brandon (He is kinda fine, I get it, Stella).
6. Sky (pisses me off, idk what it is, maybe I've got something against blonde's idk. My best friend is blonde though and they're the best. Idk).
7. Nex, fuck you with your hourglass figure (I actually forgot everything about him too, maybe he's a great guy. He just looks like this one guy I know and he's the worst).
Anyways!!
Extra notes, their asses are so often 80% of the screen in clips, they're often put in insane outfits when they're literal teenagers and I think it's weird. The fandom is even worse because they all have internalized misogyny and it's obvious with the way they talk about the characters from the show. Plus they're brainwashed in modern beauty standards, but isn't everyone? No, go outside, go to a fuckin' pub and get an apple juice and scarf down some chips down your gullet.
PS: I didn't get to talk about the movies, but also the whole thing about Bloom being a pick me is so dumb. She's not a pick me, but in the movies she is DEFINITELY fan service, and so are all the other girls- throughout the whole entire franchise honestly! In the movie magical adventure, Bloom is moaning every second she's on screen with that stupid squeaky voice, THE CREATORS AND WRITERS ARE FREAKS!!!!!!! WAKE UP!!!!!!!!!
