It’s not about women acting like men… It’s about women acting like women and being successful.

#i have so so so so so so so so many problems with tumblr’s view of zooey deschanel#claiming she’s a manic pixie dream girl#a) real people cannot be manic pixie dream girls they’re people#b) she’s not a manic pixie dream girl as jess either she’s just feminine and likes baking and sweets and dresses and being pretty#i saw one post that called her ‘the wrong kind of weird the kind everyone likes’#but jess isn’t portrayed as some cute perfect woman that all three guys in the loft are chasing after#none of the guys she meets find her attractive because of her quirks and the only person with who it matters#is another teacher with similar quirks#so what if her kind of weird is having pretty eyeslashes and dresses and singing all the time#so what if she expresses herself in an incredibly feminine way#why does that make you want to belittle her #why does that make you so angry#tl;dr FUCK you if you’re against zooey deschanel because she’s too feminine to represent you#fuck you if you have a problem with her because she’s too individual instead of a blank state you can copy yourself on#this is why zooey’s femininity is considered weird#because femininity is burned at the stake for being too pretty
