Mulan characters but they're feminist archetypes/people's thoughts on feminism:
"I didn't realize how important women's rights were until I had a daughter."
Content housewife, but gets frustrated with other women who aren't content housewives.
Radical feminist in her youth, but now more conservative and judgmental of younger feminists for taking things "too far" or focusing on "little things."
"I'm a woman and sexism doesn't exist."
Just a straightforward misogynist.
She's doing her best! Has always been uncomfortable with gender roles and double standards, but didn't feel capable of speaking out until recently.
Supportive best friend, doesn't always understand your feminism but willing to learn and be there for you.
Okay, skipping forward a bit... Person who is Actually Terrible a Lot but also nominally supports gender equality. It's a tense relationship.
Kind of a bro, a low-key sexist but he's trying to work on it. Knows that he's problematic, doesn't always address it in the best way possible, but definitely way better than he used to be.
Started out being friends with you because you're "not like other girls," will support you but not any other women they know.
And pause because I have to watch I'll Make a Man Out of You.
Thinks he's a huge feminist ally, but he's really not.
Newly confident in her abilities and opinions! Amazing.
Thinks they're down with feminism, but also only want to date women who are super feminine and also not feminists.
Toxic masculinity and emotional repression.
Feminist analysis that only focuses on choice and individualism vs. feminist analysis that includes systems and institutions as actors of oppression.
Interlude: Mulan's horse Khan is the real MVP who runs into battle with her.
Man who keeps asking feminists, "How do we help your cause?" but doesn't actually follow through on suggested actions unless they're being seen by others.
Guy who double-majored in Gender Studies and Philosophy, wants to become a lawyer, invested in appearing smarter than everyone else. Not the worst person but also.... not the best.
