What is a femme fatale and where does she come from? Is she a representation of independence? A symbolism of fear? Or is she just a mere depiction of a manipulative evil women? There are many theories surrounding the archetype. In this video I focus on one of the theories relating to independence. What do you think her origin story is?
i believe this trope also comes off as a revenge after being hurt so many times by the crappy men in their lives so they kinda transform into this alter ego… nice commentary this channel is going places 👍🏽
I think the Femme Fatale is also a symbol of male fears about being taken advantage of; your senses are all blurred and your defenses are lowered by the face, body, and sexual prowess of someone who was only using you. Chauvinists are scared of this because they hate the idea of being manipulated by a woman. Non-chauvinists are scared of this too because, well, no one likes being a sucker. Femme Fatale's are great characters because they can be written in so many different ways: amoral opportunists (Ava from "Sin City"), traumatized survivors (Goldie from "Sin City), unreliable allies to the stories hero (Cat Woman from "The Batman"), etc. I love them all for different reasons because they make the reader/viewer think about what experiences warped them into what they became. Ma-Ma from the movie Dredd (2012) while not a full fledged FF, still has a lot of FF characteristics, and is one of my favorites. Lena Heady brought so many layers to her character which she portrayed more with her facial expressions and body language than her actual lines.
@pensdrawblood "Femme Fatale's are great characters because they can be written in so many different ways...". Wow! I wish I included this into my video! Like you mentioned, her ability to mold into different women based on what she symbolizes is probably one of the biggest reasons why the archetype is so popular. A symbol of feminism? A representation of male fear? A real-life depiction of a manipulative women? Who knows? She truly is a shape shifter in our minds!
The myth of the femme fatale is just a character in literature and cinema that has no equivalent in real life. The fictional femme fatale is a very attractive and sensual but also manipulative and sinister woman who leads men to a fatal destiny. In real life the most toxic and manipulative women are not usually attractive, generally the woman who cannot attract men with her physique then does so through manipulation; and their toxicity is due to the fact that they are generally resentful people socially speaking. There is the archetypal example of the witch who is a socially misfit woman, not at all attractive and who manipulates people by making them believe that she has magical powers.
I disagree with your independent women's theory. I feel like more men are worried about devious women like Amber heard, and women like that intentionally and maliciously try to ruin mens lives.
Yeah, I'd also like to mention that some guys go for the usual typical innocent housewife narrative rather than being with a so-called independent woman. Not that something's wrong with that. It's just easier.
The femme fatale is just a woman doing sex and romance like men do it…love em and leave em, preferably with other gain. Men understandably find this unfair. 😂
Very interesting video. Lovely visuals and I appreciate the accuracy and attention to detail! I was very surprised by your small subscriber count, you definitely deserve a lot more and i am sure you will get them in time! Such a talent can not go unnoticed 💖
Wonderful...A point here -Was it that Lilith and Adam got into an argument over the sexual position cow-girl vs missionary (besides she demanding equality)? Correct me if I am wrong...
There is no better genre than a hot woman dispatching endless evil doers in the dozens with a gun and swords.😅 God bless Michelle Yeoh and Milla Jovovich. Interesting trivia, Moulton Marston, creator of Wonder Woman, was close friends with the sisters who started the Feminist movement. Not related to the woman accused of racism recently.
I think it was born as a moral archetype to imaginatively highlight the woman who makes negative decisions (risky partners, dangerous environments, etc.) and consequently unleashes fatal, very karmic, consequences around her, or at least that is how it was handled in contemporary fiction for getting consumed in city stories. Relating it to ancestral tragedies is not always accurated, nor do I think it is a criticism of the independent and seductive woman, confusion must be avoided.
Hello! Thanks for commenting! Unfortunately I didn't realize how I was pronouncing my words when recording. However, I appreciate the feedback👍Thanks again!
Nice take and great images; Louise Brooks in the silent era helped kickstart the movie version, and oddly for an otherwise enlightened band, the Velvet Underground offered a cynical song on the labeling.
Hi! I use Movavi Video Editor and other apps like snow /prequel! But I'm planning to use final cut pro for my next video since the software I use now has some limits ✨ Hope that helps!
Yes, very nice editing skills and sultry voice, but your misuse of the singular term 'woman' when referring to the plural (WOMEN) ruins it for me. It is basic grammar! Woman (singular) women (plural). And dont get me started on the mispronounciation of the French word 'femme' 🤦🏻♀️
well we all understood didn’t we ? so it doesn’t matter so much they can fix it in the future and not everyone’s 1st language is english anyways so chill out

Interesting, deeply researched, and beautifully edited and narrated. Subscribed.
Thank you so much! Much appreciated!
Sadly the house-husband will never be as accepted as the femme fatale :(
Wonderful...A point here -Was it that Lilith and Adam got into an argument over the sexual position cow-girl vs missionary (besides she demanding equality)? Correct me if I am wrong...
Hmm.. I've never heard that part of the of story😅
No, I think it was over strap ons and missionary

Is there a reason you're saying WOMMAN when it makes grammatical sense for it to be the plural WOMEN?
THANK YOU!

If you really hate that much her pronunciation then turn on the sub
