Female fans already feel the consequences of the silence surrounding her sexualisation, as the ripple effect empowers lurking incels in the fanbase to target anyone and everyone, dismissing and degrading us more and more every day.

I’ve rewritten this multiple times, trying to soften my anger because I’m scared of being seen as the ‘riled up woman’ that rants with no real reasoning. Believing what women have been taught for centuries, that allowing ourselves to express emotions freely means we lack credibility.

But fuck that.
