How YA Authors Show Their Feminism

How YA authors show their feminism

Author: so there's this girl. 🧚‍♀️She's not beautiful but she has long golden blonde/white blonde/honey brown/red hair to her waist, extremely tiny waist, blue/green/grey eyes. Now despite her lanky frame, she can wield 101047472 weapons 🗡🗡🗡🗡and she's a badass😏 and a lost princess/queen/monarch/head of a space organization.💫💫👑👑🙈🙈 Her world is filled with evil men🤢🤢🤢

It's extremely patriarchal so I can show how ✨different✨ she is

She has to work so hard to be on par with men. 🥺🥺

But she hates soft, girly women. Because they are airheads 🤬

Every plan of hers works flawlessly because she is also smOrt👌👌👌. Everyone loves her but no one bothers to call her out on her bullshit, even as she burns down cities.

She will not take your shit but she will take her creepy, immortal 1020102920 year old love interest's shit😔✌👌.

Or alternatively,

Author: so there's this girl🧚‍♀️

She's the best!!! The smartest!!! But she's very plain (jk, she has eurocentric features and make up transforms her into a swan 🤪🤪)

Kinda bossy and nagging but it's cute☺️☺️

Has one (1) female friend so that she has a someone to call her best friend without any scrutiny. Usually more popular than her😒

She can do a ton of questionable things, hit her love interest, manipulate people around her, physically harm "traitors". She also hates those gossipy bitches those girls who don't study😱 but are popular and play sports and like makeup 😱😱

But that's okay. She's not like them. She's a badass feminist💫💫🗡🗡

So everyone will just like her actions and she'll never need to develop or have character growth because she's strong and my fAvouRitE

Or alternatively,

Author: my main girl looks exactly like me🤪🤪🤪

She's the most beautiful, but kinda plain and doesn't think of herself much because she's that kind and that good🥺🥺🥺

And she manages to make a broody, abusive angsty bad boy change for her. 🥺💫❤❤

You know how? Because she's not like other girls😤😤😤

They wear makeup. She doesn't because it's 💫fake💫

They're all boring plastics, gossiping bullies and she's quirky and nerdy and clumsy and like reading books and drinking tea and being alone.🍵🍵☺️☺️

And the bad boy wants her because she is sassy with him🤪🤪 and wants to change him🥺🥺❤❤🙈🙈. Doesn't matter that he's emotionally, verbally, physically abusive.

What, the boys?

Oh they'll all be hot, 6+ feet, abs, black/blonde hair, gemstone eyes, pale skin, no scars unless they're hot, no acne, nothing except American or European😍😍😍🥵🥵🥵 and seventeen/eighteen so it's not creepy and pedophilic for me to write some sexy times😏😏😏

And other than that... eh not much. They're just there for the romance. It's not like we can create good role models right🤔😒

Setting: mostly America, European middle ages, Europe, or alternatively, Victorian era, futuristic Europe. No mentions of colonization or genocide because what's research?☺️✌
