Well dont trust me. I know i am right, i know they were talking serious. You think there are not homophobics? or that they dont masturbate?they lie knowing they are lying, don't believe every stranger who writes on the internet
So Maya lied? Interesting... first time I've heard that one.![]()
now let's see what Chad will do: if he confronts the problem or simply asks mc to keep his secret (which he has cleverly hidden by making out in the locker room of a gym normally frequented by his enlightened jocks friends).
Maya lacks power towards her father (and this power she gave to her father by continuing to trust him against all evidence), but it is not only from him that she hides, she hides from everybody. and then this lack of power, of character be it what it may, must culminate in a reaction
Maya's reaction is to kick Josy out of her life for the second time. and to give up again, and this is Josy's statement, not mine, then unfortunately Sage intervenes and forces her to be helped again.
you say that this story should push those who follow it to take Maya's side... except that in this it has statistically failed, considering the success the character has had.
but going even beyond this aspect (the players are all retrograde chauvinists except me, you and a couple of people I like), if I decide to defend Maya I don't do it for a sexual issue, that is completely marginal, you do it to defend a girl from an abuse. if the father had acted the same way because he wanted Maya to be a housewife and to have already 4 children, I would have defended her the same way
The social issue doesn't really come in, because it's not in the interest of the story that it comes in.
And for sure is not the first time that a story with a progressive agenda fails and is face against a huge backlash. We have seen it once and again and again lately. Everyone were happy when DPC was making fun of feminist and gays but once he starts to put gay narrative on the menu suddenly some people start to become angry? What a surprise.
Of all the girls in the story the lesbian feminist is the most hated? What a surprise.
Also is clear that the story has "failed" with Maya. That's evident. She is a porn character, her main goal is todirectly please the player. And yet she is the less like it? Politics felice. We reach a point in wich people is no longer able to enjoy porn if it cames with a very naive political messege.
Of course they lied. A justified lied in the context of the story, that's the point. You will not openly say that you are gay in Arabia Saudita for example. And noone can blame you if you want to keep being alive.
Man we should not being argueing this couse it was explicit on the end of episode 7.
Ok about Chad kissing of the gym, that was stupid. It is a classic stupidity from comedy narrative.
You are exagereting, she didnt kick her out of her live and by that point she didn't had any option. Thats the point, she lacks power. That's the main trait of a victim. She doesnt have options. Well yeah, she could loose her scolarship and see how everyone around her get a degree a while she clean floors for a minimum wage to pay a loan she couldnt even use. Or she could talk with her father and since we know that fanatics are reasonable people he would understand her. Honestely you cant blame her for lying to her father.
I am sorry but i am lost right now. You know that the conflict is that Maya is lesbian?
