[Pretty Little Liars] I'm suddenly remembering how much NOPE I felt about the first season of this show with the Aria/Fitz plot

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
because hahahaha normalizing pederasty

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
There is no amount of numbers fudging that makes it even remotely okay because she's 16 and he is AT LEAST 21

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
and her teacher

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
it bothers me because the rest of this show is really good, iirc

ALEX NO
yeah dude, it's so fucked up. Like if you wanna do it do it but call it what it is: fucked up.

ALEX NO
The show romanticizes the fuck out of it though and I'm like. Nah man, no.

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
It could have been really cool if it had been like...attributed to her acting out

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
and he had been arrested for it and everyone had been like NOPE NOT COOL

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
I'm angrier at Fitz's character because like. He's a fucking adult.

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
He KNOWS BETTER

ALEX NO
Seriously. But it's like so much romanticizing of this shit. Call it out.

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
SIMILARLY, not cool that an entire family is blaming their 16 year old child when a grown man kisses her.

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
/side-eyes Spencer's fam

ᴇᴠɪᴇ
but iirc slutshaming spencer is a thing with this show
