And are you stupid enough to not understand the men are also to blame it wasn’t just Serena then again your probably a dumb Blair fan so of course your a misogynistic idiot who will only blame Serena even though the men are equally to blame 🤡🤡
@@mdsmalta no she doesn’t anytime someone treats her the way she treats everyone else she cries and acts like the victim she never took responsibility and only apologized if she got caught then right after she’d apologize she’d go right back to being her cruel awful self
@@mdsmaltai disagree about this. She definitely thinks the people who she bullies deserve it and she starts out as innocent. They are both horrific mean girls
Even though Serena did way more, Emily annoys me the most because of her "I'm so innocent, it just happened, it's not my fault" act with everyone on the show also seeming to back her up. Atleast for Serena her mom was disgusted with the married man scenario and everyone judged Serena for her first sleeping with Nate, Emily in Paris like all the characters just excuse it as "the French way" 🙄
My absolute favorite part of the Serena saga was her sleeping with Dan while he was still with Blair and getting rejected by all their friends but Serena starts the new season acting like the victim when her friends went looking for her, like she was actually upset they kicked her out to the curve after she acted like an absolute menace and was horrible to everyone lol
I dunno. I feel like Cassie might be the worst, because not only did she sleep her best friend's ex, but it was her best friend's ABUSIVE ex. Granted Maddie defended Nate when he put his hands on her. But everyone knew it was really Nate. I could never forgive a friend for doing that to me, knowing how they've treated me in the past.
Cassie was really bad for it especially like you said it was her best friends ABUSIVE ex, but Cassie is still a teen and for her based on her own trauma having attention from guys even those that are bad is what she craves so she definitely needs a reality check and therapy
As much as I think what she did was despicable, I would argue that because he is abusive, she fell for it even more because abusive men are usually more manipulative, she felt like she knew him and then when they started doing something together that she knew him better than Maddie ever did, that’s a recurrent mindset of the next woman with abusive men it’s like ok that happened to you, but it won’t happen to me because I’m different very main character syndrome
Even worse, dating an abusive man turned Cassie into an abusive bully herself where she was willing to exact the same pain and misery towards others remorselessly. I feel like Maddy's beating and Lexi's play will worsen her anger even more.
Yeah but the Euphoria show didn't gloss over it as much as they did with Serena. We're supposed to hate Cassie, and most of the audience did. We're not supposed to hate Serena, apparently.
Serena was literally the worst but the show justified her every time she did something wrong. It was so annoying that she had no consequences and ended up like the good guy
She had conséquences wtf and blair is the one who face no conséquences for being à bully, à heartless monster who do so many fucked up thing even to her own friend

@@SunshineBarbie-sv4bibecause blair knows what she does is wrong, she knows she is not great. Serena does the same things blair does but acting like it just happened and she was just stupid. She is more egotistical than blair because blair decides to put aside other peoples feelings when acting, serena doesn’t even think about them.
The issue is that the shows always glorify the cheating and never show the consequences. ESPECIALLY if the cheater is the MC. And if they show show the consequences, they almost always lowkey get glorified too, in an “oh we are so hurt and now we can’t be together my star-crossed lover 😩” manner And if real life situations, like the Ariana-Ethan scandal, is anything to go by, IRL not-girl girls will still be defended and glorified too
The number of times a romantic partner exists solely as an obstacle between the two romantic leads getting together 💀 And the other partner is always vilified for not being as perfect a match for the love interest as the main character regardless of if they’re actually a villain or not. And it’s always framed in a way that we’re meant to cheer when the two leads finally get together (often before the other partner has been left), and the other partner getting dumped for the main character is just like “🤷🏻♀️ sucks to suck, glad they’re out of the way”. And HOW OFTEN does this moment happen when the love interest and other partner are getting engaged or about to get married, and so the love interest calls off their engagement/wedding for the main character?? And we’re not supposed to feel for this other partner who was left just before their wedding for another person?? The Jim/Pam/Karen triangle is such a good example of this. People HATED Karen and treated her like the villain for coming between Jim and Pam, when really, Karen was literally just trying to have a healthy relationship with a man who was using her to run away from his feelings for a woman who rejected him. Karen did nothing wrong. Jim dragged her along and Pam was happy to wedge herself in there.
Referring to the IRL Ariana/Ethan scandal, i disagree: they have both received a lot of backlash. The reason why there's still people defending them (especially Ariana) it's because on one hand they're not random people, they're celebrities with a fanbase, mostly made up of very young people. On the other hand, Ariana Grande has recently completely rebranded her image as the epitome of delicate, vulnerable femininity that's just a victim of the media. This rebrand was incredibly effective, because now, instead of appearing as a shameless sex kitten, she is this tragic princess in the throes of the whims of love, who couldn't help but to feel the way she felt for Ethan. So yeah, she's being excused a lot, but that's because she's an exception, not the rule.
Not just the girls are to blame but the guys. If a man truly loves you he would push her away and expose her to you. Not cheat on you with her. The man is just as much as the rat as the girl is. In all honesty the man is to blame since it’s all being done because of him.
I absolutely agree either way this and I’d also say this video focuses on the girls because the betrayal of a girl friend hurts deeper, at least for me and for most of us around the comment section
Especially with Serena and Nate because Nate knew Serena was drunk and took advantage of that and trashy sexist misogynistic Blair forgave Nate even though he was also involved and equally to blame but tried to destroy Serena I don’t blame her for being mad at Serena but Nate was also involved so she should have gave him the same energy
Yeah I’m really tired of women getting blamed for men’s actions. And yes it’s HIS action. He’s the one in a relationship. Men aren’t property that someone can steal. They made their own choice
It’s funny because this is a situation that happened to me in real life, except the person cheating was a girl and the best friend was a guy (for context, I’m somewhat a girl [still figuring that out] or at least I was in high school) and obviously I was furious at both of them. The strangest thing about it was my ex actually owned up to how shitty she was being and actively tried to work on herself/apologize (took a few years, but she definitely made up for it in that time) while my best friend, even YEARS after it happened, _bragged_ about it to me. He kept going on and on about how he was so much better at “satisfying her” and how much more inferior to him I was because he was able to “steal my girl”. They’re broken up now and it’s since come up that he SAed her multiple times (as well as other women DURING the relationship) and she’s in a much happier relationship (with a woman) while he’s still hopelessly single. It’s not even just an “it’s always the cheater’s fault” as much as it’s “men have WAY too much fucking pride” (And yes, obviously a huge amount of the blame is on her. But at the same time it was very much a “Good Luck Babe” kind of situation and her mother was _not_ happy she was with me and _adores_ my ex-best friend, even after all the shitty things he did came up. CompHet exists for a reason, I guess)
Ugh she was THE cheating girlfriend. I remember being done with her the moment she explained why MARRIED Dean is HER Dean because his wife is not good enough for him . GUUUUURL
@@somebody7070 SAMEEE when she said that it annoyed me so unbelievably much! and then when lorelai said “YOU’RE the other woman” to rory i was so satisfied
Omg yes!!!! I will never get over the fact that she cheated on Dean with Jess and then decided to be a homewrecker to Dean’s marriage a few years later and the entire time she was being a complete hater on Lindsey.
There should have been another female character added to this list and they should have been no. 1. I present to you, Miss Carrie Bradshaw, Sex and the City.
@@melobski4 no, but as a FULLY ADULT woman in her 30’s, she cheated on her loving, doting partner who was wonderful to her with her ex who was married/engaged to someone else (I forget which), caused the ex partner’s new spouse to fall down a flight of stairs and then proceeds to stalk her with the intention of forcing her to bestow forgiveness on her so that SHE can feel better. Woman was a frickin mess.
Yesss! I literally cannot stand. Carrie. I hate the way she treated Aiden and Natasha not only did. She cheat on her loving, caring, and understanding boyfriend, but she also home wrecked marriage and decided to play victim both times
serena was horrible for sleeping with her bestfriend's bf once but cassie was genuinely horrible for sleeping with her bestfriend's ab*ser and still act all high and mighty. at least serena felt guilty about it, ntm she was drunk and she did it once. cassie kept doing it. daddy issues isnt an excuse for this behaviour
Same! And they still defend my ex friend, make excuses for them, as it’s much easier to ignore a friend’s unethical actions than take action themselves. Reflects so badly on everyone. That’s why I enjoy seeing characters like this portrayed, as it looks into how their need to be desired (more than their friend, who they presumably feel inferior to) is stronger than their integrity, loyalty, and sense of morality. Sorry bout your friend and friend group, you’ll find better people 🫶
Something that always annoyed me, in Heartbreak High the best friend of the main character not only sleeps with her crush but later with her boyfriend. And at the end the main character forgives her and they stay friends. And the best friend never really faces consequences for it. If I was her I would NEVER trust her again.
Serena was why I couldn't watch the show further than the third season. She's a ridiculous character. She was a terrible person with no consequence who was over-glorified and rewarded for her bad behavior. It completely overshadowed any enjoyment I had while watching the show.
Last year I experienced my now ex best friend (my son called her auntie), who stood by me at my wedding, try to steal my husband.my spouse made a funny face, (they'd been friends sine high school), and showed me a text. My ex bestie, who I'd just flown across counry to visit me, thought she'd try to take what I had. When I asked her why she said, "I guess I'm just selfish. You have every right to be angry." Worst betrayal I've experienced. Apparently she liked that my husband is a great dad, felt jealous because her baby daddy is a deadbeat, and thought maybe she could get my husband to leave and be her son's new daddy. I'm thankful I have a loyal significant other that was willing to show me as soon as there was stink ass behavior.
This literally made me wonder about entire generation of girls. It is standard Girl Code that any man they like is off limits! If she's a good friend even if she never gets the guy you don't touch that guy. It's also girl code when you go to a party or a club together you leave together. You do not let your friends pass out in a room by themselves and if they're drunk you take them home so somebody won't take advantage of them. It's a matter of safety and respect and it seems like at least on TV they don't want girls looking out for each other in order to make us weak😢
Check out that hilarious show “Crazy X-girlfriend”. There the MC goes for someone’s boyfriend, because she believes they are meant to be. It’s a great musical and mental health show.
My old best friend, got with my ex literally like 2 weeks after we broke up and had a foursome with her And 2 grown men in their 30s, we were literally seniors in high school. And it's crazy too, one because My ex abused me and two because that's the first time, either of them have done something like that.And also, that's the first time that my ex best friend had ever tried anything with a girl. Let me just say I definitely get maddie
This trope does exist in real life, it's really gross and disappointing. I made friends with a girl who seemed to just see everyone for what they could give her, and I was happy to be kind and generous until I realized she was messaging the guy I told her I liked, and had contacted him AFTER I told her about him.... AND after this, she tried to do it again (asked me what his name was) but I cut her off right then. I couldn't excuse this behavior, it was clearly a pattern. She still stalks me online even though I've blocked multiple accounts of hers.
I didn’t bother watching Emily in Paris despite recommendations because I heard of how they made her sleep with her friend’s man. I hate shows that glorify cheating
I actually couldn't keep going after the end of season 1 reveal, it was honestly so jarring but I legit felt like I had just been misled and betrayed by a friend I thought I could trust. The most severe emotional response I've ever had to an unreliable narrator (I'm pretty autistic, I really felt like my trust has been taken advantage of, added context I was only 22 years old and had just experienced the 2016 presidential election cycle so i was not entirely in a good place mentally) and it actually kind of changed the way I consume fiction ngl 😂
@@arbyswitch5580 Oh hun, I'm so sorry you felt that way. Really! However, Fleagbag has of course a very mature and psychological approach on betrayal. I highly recommend watching season 2. It's first of all MUCH BETTER than season 1, and second you can clearly see how she tries to do better (not only with her sexuality, but also with her sister and other people around her). The first season is obviously about denying and grieving, while the second one is about healing. You might like it :)
@@KatStawp I think I should consider finishing the series! I love Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and now that I'm a bit older and feel a bit better I might be able to handle it. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement to finish the show 💕 I hope you have a wonderful day today
I do not like her as a person nor do I understand her because that’s just a no no for me BUT I do feel for her and I love that she actually suffers the consequences of her actions
I think the office actually kind of does this well with Michael. He’s the “other woman” and he’s fed all these stories about how the girl he’s seeing’s husband is just terrible so he feels justified in his actions, but then he meets the guy and actually realizes maybe he was in the wrong. It’s the only one I can think of off the top of my head though, and with a guy so it’s a different situation
omg i wish u had mentioned one tree hill here how brooke’s boyfriend literally cheated on her TWICE with her own childhood best friend even after she gave both of them another chance n they live happily ever after like?????
My husband and i watched Gossip Girl together as he'd never seen it and I waited for him to hate Serena and he didnt let me down and ended up calling her Seren-ho. We ended up loving Chuck and Jack Bass even more because they are at least honest about being douche bags, they made no BS lies about their motives they wore the crown of douche baggery openly, Seren-ho was always playing bitch-victim and with the most convoluted reasons at times it wasn't endearing it was repetitive.
Thinking about it. This is such a soap opera trope. But I wonder if one of the reasons that this type of "story" telling is rooted in the: "I wish I could make So and So fall for me." OR "I wish I could get all the guys like So and So." Or "Why doesn't So and So see that he would be better off with ME?" Soaps have been doing this for over 70 years. Sadly.
Theres honestly part of me that feels as tho it is unfair to include a character written by Sam Levison on this list due to rhe fact that he is creatively bereft...if somehow someone else was writing Euphoria, Cassie would have a legitimate character arc (that could literally still include being babygirl)
My best friend in high school would always act like she couldn’t stand whoever I was dating at the time, then she “sideways salsa’d” with them. Ugh. Anyway, this is the first video I’ve seen of yours and I’m loving your presence & euphemisms.
I would recommend watching Fleabag. The main character could fall into this category with what she did, but I still think her journey is deeply human and beautiful. I do also feel some kind of sympathie for Cassie. What she did is absolutely shitty, but Cassie is in dire need of therapy, she pretty much uses Nate to hurt herself and SHE NEEDS HELP. I'm definitely on Maddie's side, but I do feel terrible for Cassie. Blake and Emily are absolutely disgusting and the fact that they face barely any consequence for being like this is annoyiiiing. Though in Gossip Girl, the pitch is literally 'rich people being awful'.
I hate how there are people defending these actions and blaming it all on the taken person also. Like whether a man or woman sleeps with a taken person, they are complete home wrecking garbage. Unless they are unaware of the person’s relationship, they are choosing to get involved with a taken person. Both people are to blame.
as someone that’s had this happen, it’s so jarring and heart breaking idk if i can ever get over the betrayal! truly only of my least favorite tropes and it’s never done (emotionally and psychologically) right
I agree, making the main character not a girl's girl sends the wrong message and I don't even understand where or how this trend started. One of my least favorites of this trend is Gilmore Girls because Rory was briefly reprimanded for it and then everyone acted like nothing happened
My guess is that it happens as a way for men to excuse cheating and shift the blame to someone else, and they get the added bonus of pitting women against each other
I mean, I think that, when it actually happens in real life, it is a way more complicated scenario than what it is shown on TV and guys are to blame too ! Sadly, between girls, it can have a lot of competitions, especially at a young age when they lack a lot of confidence. I am not saying that these behaviors are forgivable but understanable and that society is tough on women. It leads them to compete against themselves and sometimes it goes on them arguing over the same guy because of jalousy and lack of self esteem.
As much as we should blame full grown women for knowingly going after a taken man, I feel we should also acknowledge that the man isn't completely innocent. Of course, if you thought you were going after a taken man, that's a red flag, but the man also shouldn't cheat on his girlfriend/wife. Both the 'homewrecker' and the man are to blame in this situation, unless the homewrecker didn't know he was taken, which of course means the man lied to her and we should wholly blame him.
Rory on Gilmore Girls is a not girls girl she’s an example of an NLOG which she didn’t really start out that way but once she entered Yale she grew down honestly
I can assure you that is not common with me or my friends. The comments though have me worried. Why are there people who have had this happen to them irl, that's awful!
Apologies! I should’ve said it right at the beginning of the video but 21:33 I acknowledge these guys are all pieces of sh*t too! The main point I’m trying to make here is the specifics of these being main characters we’re supposed to be rooting for with little to no consequences for these actions whereas for the men in these scenarios they aren’t main characters and in cases like Nate Jacobs and Tripp from Gossip Girl the show does frame them as pieces of sh*t which is great but with the girls they don’t hold them as much accountable if that makes sense?💕
I understand why Cassie gets the hate, I do and she fully deserves it but I give her a little bit of grace because she has rampant daddy issues however I absolutely hate Serena and Emily, because they pretend to take accountability but they don’t. Serena slept with her best friends boyfriend and we looked past that because “Nate and Blair were not meant to be”, but then she kept “falling in love” with taken people. They take absolutely no accountability but the show makes the wife or the girlfriend “mean” so we can be okay with the fact that this MC has no moral compass.. not adding that Serena did this to Blair TWICE lol
We can add Elena Gilbert the number one self centered victim playing ever who has 0 problems to sleep and date with the man who literally abused psychologically, physically, sexually and emotionally one of her two best friends and HAD THE AUDACITY to gaslight this same friend who didn't reacted well of this news (not even for her trauma but for ELENA SAFETY)
A man is not property that someone can steal. If someone F**** “your man” you should thank them for showing you who he really is. A man who steps out on his relationship… let’s hold him fully accountable. Personally I found this whole video pretty gross. But then again I don’t think people are property- men or women. Women need to stop fighting over shitty men and blaming each other.
But like...ok being angry at a girl, but why so much? She is a bad friend cause she did not immediately told on your man, but also if he can't keep in in his pants, that's a trash of a person, go get yourself another one, there's plenty
The only show that had me rooting for the homewrecker and the cheater was Scandal. I wanted Liv and Fitz together sooo BAD 😂😂 Buti I think it worked specifically because Liv and Mellie were NOT friends lol
I mean having no conveniences is kinda a thing IRL lol I'm extremely heartbroken, miserable, I've lost all my self confidence, just splashed into th fing wall, and that won't heal, while she got away with nothing. She is still happy, she has all our mutual friend's approval she can still live her life as if nothing happened. While I can't, I can't even breath without anger. Sorry for the rant
we call these 'enişteci kızlar' in turkey which i can roughly translate to girls who go after their girl friend/sister's boyfriend/husband, aka their brother-in-law. this happens very often in turkish shows as well, even with their blood sisters. it happens irl too, which is a whole nother topic
i generally agree with you but i feel like in films and tv shows lots of characters do insane things (like even murder) where the audience still roots for them and is supposed to (vampire diaries, prison break, game of thrones, la casa de papel). it does make a character more interesting i guess (while it also really depends on what kinda show you're watching...) but i also don't like seeing the "not-girls girl character" being glorified so i'm 50/50 on this topic yk
Murder is illegal. Cheating is vile. There's the difference. There's instances in which murder can be justified (self defence, etc) but there's not, and will never be a justification for cheating. It's not something that you do because you had no choice or your hand was forced. It's something you do because you're a bad person. That's all.
@CiaLaVirago But that's not true though? Cheating is usually a result of an unhappy relationship, hypersexuality, trauma, abuse etc. Like a lot of ppl do it because they're total dirtbags, but ofc there's causes behind it and it's not as bad as murder lol.
Every day that goes by, I am more and more grateful that I bailed on Emily In Paris after the first five minutes of the pilot. I just got a bad vibe _immediately._ Also, we need more Legally Blonde type plots. Where the girls hated each other over a man but in the end they were like “we ruined a potential friendship over _that_ loser? Fuck him, we’re gonna build a friendship even though the world tried to tear us apart and leave that asswipe behind,” rather than the friends forgiving and forgetting like it was absolutely nothing.
The Secret Lives of College Girls shows a relationship between a main character and a guy that has a partner whom the main character has never met. If you wanted to watch that lol
omfg thank you so much for making this video these kinds of plot lines / characters frickin ruin shows for me because i just cannot deal and not forgive. it's immersion breaking!!!! and they suck why would i want to root for them!!!
this happened to me. we have matching tattoos in each others handwriting. I was at her first wedding. she's a therapist and he's unemployed. I cut them out of my life and trust God to take care of it.
i would just like to add 2 more girls to the list that stole someone's boyfriend but shows made it seem ok - Peyton Sawyer from OTH - she married Lucas in s6 - Kelly Taylor from BH90210 - she got in a relashionship with Dylan, twice, had a son offscreen with him... i just don't like those 2
It made me so mad the way people were defending Cassie for literally fucking her best friends abusive ex-boyfriend and the big excuse was that she had daddy issues and abandonment issues and she sexualized herself for validation and the love she never got. I empathize with her character, but I definitely do not sympathize with her character. she knew what she was doing was wrong and she continued to do it? then afterwards she has the audacity to stand by Nate and insult her sister at her show because she’s humiliated by the action she made.
They always had this excuse for the best friend back stabber to get sympathise what she did. I understand my plot. So my ex bestie is getting married with man that forced kissed me, almost fucked me. I understand her side, that she just a small minded person. I just realised by the decision she made that actually a pattern since the first i knew her. So, yeah. They are great together and i deserve better people in my life.
I do not defend Serena, but I can put up with her more than I can with Emily. Because people got angry at her, they called her out while this does not happen to Emily.
And then we wonder why there's all these unfaithful dudes. In all of these, the cheating is presented as "well actually she's his true love." Yeah, until the next "true love" comes around. And then we get dudes on their third or fourth marriage because you know, all of them were his "true love" at some point.
I had this happen, it wasn't fun at all. Being friends afterwards like nothing happened is not realistic. Most somewhat realistic is what happens with Blair because she's forever resentf about it. Buttttt Emily in Paris? Nah. Camille is such a likeable as well so idk why they did that
Loved this video and I’m so glad there’s someone who despises Serena as much as me. I think it’s important to to mention that he recorded Dan without his consent when they were fking 😭 just to get revenge on Blair she’s insane
I did steal a friend’s man in high school. But that was because he broke up with me to date her. So I really wanted to break them up. Then I got to know her, and wish I went after her. 😅
I need to know people's thoughts on this: There was a guy I never dated but I was in love with him for seven years. We had a messy on and off friendship and he actually caused multiple ******* attempts. Is it okay for my friend to date him?
I really don't mean to be a "hater" if anything I'm giving you interaction with this. But girl, the whole point of that trope is that it IS a terrible thing to do, especially to a best friend. If it makes you that upset....that's kind of the point
Except not really. A lot of the time, girl will be a homewrecker, and then the rest of the world will bend over backwards to reassure her it's ok, it's not her fault, or romanticise the whole situation as a "star crossed lovers" type of romance. The problem with the trope is that it's never done right. And the consequences are never what they're supposed to be.
In Gossip Girl only Jenny had consequences and it was way too much compared to what she did, when all the others did 1000 times worst sithout a care in the world.
I'v only seen gossip girl and emily in paris. They are both such main characters. I havn't seen the other 2 you mentioned. I don't just blame the girls, though. The men are just as in to it. both need dumped.
When are they gonna do a series on that one guy who dates 3 girls from the same group and thinks they won't find out but obviously they do cause they are friends? 😂 cause that did actually happen in highschool.
there's that horrible movie Something Borrowed where they literally try to gaslight you that is justifiable for the protagonist to sleep with her best friend's man because the fried is obnoxious and annoying LIKE THAT IS A JUSTIFICATION. And we spend the whole movie watching this mischievous b**** deceasing her best friend i hate this movie so much makes me rad

Not as crazy as Blair blaming the people she bullied when they rightfully don’t put up with her cruelty and bullying 🤡🤡

Also because Camille is such a sweet person
My absolute favorite part of the Serena saga was her sleeping with Dan while he was still with Blair and getting rejected by all their friends but Serena starts the new season acting like the victim when her friends went looking for her, like she was actually upset they kicked her out to the curve after she acted like an absolute menace and was horrible to everyone lol
I dunno. I feel like Cassie might be the worst, because not only did she sleep her best friend's ex, but it was her best friend's ABUSIVE ex. Granted Maddie defended Nate when he put his hands on her. But everyone knew it was really Nate. I could never forgive a friend for doing that to me, knowing how they've treated me in the past.
Cassie was really bad for it especially like you said it was her best friends ABUSIVE ex, but Cassie is still a teen and for her based on her own trauma having attention from guys even those that are bad is what she craves so she definitely needs a reality check and therapy
As much as I think what she did was despicable, I would argue that because he is abusive, she fell for it even more because abusive men are usually more manipulative, she felt like she knew him and then when they started doing something together that she knew him better than Maddie ever did, that’s a recurrent mindset of the next woman with abusive men it’s like ok that happened to you, but it won’t happen to me because I’m different very main character syndrome
Even worse, dating an abusive man turned Cassie into an abusive bully herself where she was willing to exact the same pain and misery towards others remorselessly. I feel like Maddy's beating and Lexi's play will worsen her anger even more.
Yeah but the Euphoria show didn't gloss over it as much as they did with Serena. We're supposed to hate Cassie, and most of the audience did. We're not supposed to hate Serena, apparently.

@@laurine____7543I know Blair is literally everything wrong in the world and her stupid fans act like serena while flawed is generally nice but Serena is somehow the monster and Blair isn’t
@@SunshineBarbie-sv4bibecause blair knows what she does is wrong, she knows she is not great. Serena does the same things blair does but acting like it just happened and she was just stupid. She is more egotistical than blair because blair decides to put aside other peoples feelings when acting, serena doesn’t even think about them.
The issue is that the shows always glorify the cheating and never show the consequences. ESPECIALLY if the cheater is the MC. And if they show show the consequences, they almost always lowkey get glorified too, in an “oh we are so hurt and now we can’t be together my star-crossed lover 😩” manner
And if real life situations, like the Ariana-Ethan scandal, is anything to go by, IRL not-girl girls will still be defended and glorified too
The number of times a romantic partner exists solely as an obstacle between the two romantic leads getting together 💀
And the other partner is always vilified for not being as perfect a match for the love interest as the main character regardless of if they’re actually a villain or not. And it’s always framed in a way that we’re meant to cheer when the two leads finally get together (often before the other partner has been left), and the other partner getting dumped for the main character is just like “🤷🏻♀️ sucks to suck, glad they’re out of the way”.
And HOW OFTEN does this moment happen when the love interest and other partner are getting engaged or about to get married, and so the love interest calls off their engagement/wedding for the main character?? And we’re not supposed to feel for this other partner who was left just before their wedding for another person??
The Jim/Pam/Karen triangle is such a good example of this. People HATED Karen and treated her like the villain for coming between Jim and Pam, when really, Karen was literally just trying to have a healthy relationship with a man who was using her to run away from his feelings for a woman who rejected him. Karen did nothing wrong. Jim dragged her along and Pam was happy to wedge herself in there.
Referring to the IRL Ariana/Ethan scandal, i disagree: they have both received a lot of backlash. The reason why there's still people defending them (especially Ariana) it's because on one hand they're not random people, they're celebrities with a fanbase, mostly made up of very young people.
On the other hand, Ariana Grande has recently completely rebranded her image as the epitome of delicate, vulnerable femininity that's just a victim of the media.
This rebrand was incredibly effective, because now, instead of appearing as a shameless sex kitten, she is this tragic princess in the throes of the whims of love, who couldn't help but to feel the way she felt for Ethan.
So yeah, she's being excused a lot, but that's because she's an exception, not the rule.
@@CiaLaViragocouldn't have said it better
@@uniraffesaur Actually The Office isn't a good example of what it's being said. Karen was presented as a good match for Jim, and was never vilified.
Not just the girls are to blame but the guys. If a man truly loves you he would push her away and expose her to you. Not cheat on you with her. The man is just as much as the rat as the girl is. In all honesty the man is to blame since it’s all being done because of him.
I absolutely agree either way this and I’d also say this video focuses on the girls because the betrayal of a girl friend hurts deeper, at least for me and for most of us around the comment section
Especially with Serena and Nate because Nate knew Serena was drunk and took advantage of that and trashy sexist misogynistic Blair forgave Nate even though he was also involved and equally to blame but tried to destroy Serena I don’t blame her for being mad at Serena but Nate was also involved so she should have gave him the same energy
yeah, of course. she does mention it at 29:14
Yeah I’m really tired of women getting blamed for men’s actions. And yes it’s HIS action. He’s the one in a relationship. Men aren’t property that someone can steal. They made their own choice
It’s funny because this is a situation that happened to me in real life, except the person cheating was a girl and the best friend was a guy (for context, I’m somewhat a girl [still figuring that out] or at least I was in high school) and obviously I was furious at both of them. The strangest thing about it was my ex actually owned up to how shitty she was being and actively tried to work on herself/apologize (took a few years, but she definitely made up for it in that time) while my best friend, even YEARS after it happened, _bragged_ about it to me. He kept going on and on about how he was so much better at “satisfying her” and how much more inferior to him I was because he was able to “steal my girl”. They’re broken up now and it’s since come up that he SAed her multiple times (as well as other women DURING the relationship) and she’s in a much happier relationship (with a woman) while he’s still hopelessly single. It’s not even just an “it’s always the cheater’s fault” as much as it’s “men have WAY too much fucking pride”
(And yes, obviously a huge amount of the blame is on her. But at the same time it was very much a “Good Luck Babe” kind of situation and her mother was _not_ happy she was with me and _adores_ my ex-best friend, even after all the shitty things he did came up. CompHet exists for a reason, I guess)
You could also include Rory Gilmore
Exactly what I thought
Ugh she was THE cheating girlfriend. I remember being done with her the moment she explained why MARRIED Dean is HER Dean because his wife is not good enough for him . GUUUUURL
@@somebody7070 SAMEEE when she said that it annoyed me so unbelievably much! and then when lorelai said “YOU’RE the other woman” to rory i was so satisfied
@@viivv6230 yess I wad afraid Lorelei was gonna enable her but thankfully she hold her accountable and of course spoiled lil Rory doesn't like it
Omg yes!!!! I will never get over the fact that she cheated on Dean with Jess and then decided to be a homewrecker to Dean’s marriage a few years later and the entire time she was being a complete hater on Lindsey.
There should have been another female character added to this list and they should have been no. 1. I present to you, Miss Carrie Bradshaw, Sex and the City.
At least she didn’t sleep with their friends’ husband/boyfriend but she was the side piece
@@melobski4 no, but as a FULLY ADULT woman in her 30’s, she cheated on her loving, doting partner who was wonderful to her with her ex who was married/engaged to someone else (I forget which), caused the ex partner’s new spouse to fall down a flight of stairs and then proceeds to stalk her with the intention of forcing her to bestow forgiveness on her so that SHE can feel better. Woman was a frickin mess.
Yesss! I literally cannot stand. Carrie. I hate the way she treated Aiden and Natasha not only did. She cheat on her loving, caring, and understanding boyfriend, but she also home wrecked marriage and decided to play victim both times
serena was horrible for sleeping with her bestfriend's bf once but cassie was genuinely horrible for sleeping with her bestfriend's ab*ser and still act all high and mighty. at least serena felt guilty about it, ntm she was drunk and she did it once. cassie kept doing it. daddy issues isnt an excuse for this behaviour
my ex friend did a cassie to me and my friend group droped ME bc I didnt want to be friends with her anymore
Same! And they still defend my ex friend, make excuses for them, as it’s much easier to ignore a friend’s unethical actions than take action themselves. Reflects so badly on everyone. That’s why I enjoy seeing characters like this portrayed, as it looks into how their need to be desired (more than their friend, who they presumably feel inferior to) is stronger than their integrity, loyalty, and sense of morality. Sorry bout your friend and friend group, you’ll find better people 🫶
THANK YOU, I hope ypu find better people in your life as well@@bellaviva5086
Yoooo, WTF? That sucks.
That's fucked up.....
Those were not your friends. I'm sorry you had to find out like this.
Something that always annoyed me, in Heartbreak High the best friend of the main character not only sleeps with her crush but later with her boyfriend. And at the end the main character forgives her and they stay friends. And the best friend never really faces consequences for it.
If I was her I would NEVER trust her again.
Yes, I hate this show because of it.
it was friendly space ninja that therapeutically consoled me in how insufferable emily in paris is
Serena was why I couldn't watch the show further than the third season. She's a ridiculous character. She was a terrible person with no consequence who was over-glorified and rewarded for her bad behavior. It completely overshadowed any enjoyment I had while watching the show.
Last year I experienced my now ex best friend (my son called her auntie), who stood by me at my wedding, try to steal my husband.my spouse made a funny face, (they'd been friends sine high school), and showed me a text. My ex bestie, who I'd just flown across counry to visit me, thought she'd try to take what I had. When I asked her why she said, "I guess I'm just selfish. You have every right to be angry." Worst betrayal I've experienced. Apparently she liked that my husband is a great dad, felt jealous because her baby daddy is a deadbeat, and thought maybe she could get my husband to leave and be her son's new daddy. I'm thankful I have a loyal significant other that was willing to show me as soon as there was stink ass behavior.
This literally made me wonder about entire generation of girls. It is standard Girl Code that any man they like is off limits! If she's a good friend even if she never gets the guy you don't touch that guy. It's also girl code when you go to a party or a club together you leave together. You do not let your friends pass out in a room by themselves and if they're drunk you take them home so somebody won't take advantage of them. It's a matter of safety and respect and it seems like at least on TV they don't want girls looking out for each other in order to make us weak😢
I think you'd be surprised how many women aren't bothered about stealing men, but I appreciate your optimism regarding it :3
You can't "steal" a man. He goes willingly, and if he does, god riddance, because it means he never cared and respected you in the first place.
You're sooo right about that. That's why I hate being friends with straight women.
Check out that hilarious show “Crazy X-girlfriend”. There the MC goes for someone’s boyfriend, because she believes they are meant to be. It’s a great musical and mental health show.
My old best friend, got with my ex literally like 2 weeks after we broke up and had a foursome with her And 2 grown men in their 30s, we were literally seniors in high school. And it's crazy too, one because My ex abused me and two because that's the first time, either of them have done something like that.And also, that's the first time that my ex best friend had ever tried anything with a girl.
Let me just say I definitely get maddie
This trope does exist in real life, it's really gross and disappointing. I made friends with a girl who seemed to just see everyone for what they could give her, and I was happy to be kind and generous until I realized she was messaging the guy I told her I liked, and had contacted him AFTER I told her about him.... AND after this, she tried to do it again (asked me what his name was) but I cut her off right then. I couldn't excuse this behavior, it was clearly a pattern. She still stalks me online even though I've blocked multiple accounts of hers.
I didn’t bother watching Emily in Paris despite recommendations because I heard of how they made her sleep with her friend’s man. I hate shows that glorify cheating
I highly recommend watching Fleabag... because we truly loved her even tho she did what she did.
I actually couldn't keep going after the end of season 1 reveal, it was honestly so jarring but I legit felt like I had just been misled and betrayed by a friend I thought I could trust.
The most severe emotional response I've ever had to an unreliable narrator (I'm pretty autistic, I really felt like my trust has been taken advantage of, added context I was only 22 years old and had just experienced the 2016 presidential election cycle so i was not entirely in a good place mentally) and it actually kind of changed the way I consume fiction ngl 😂
@@arbyswitch5580 Oh hun, I'm so sorry you felt that way. Really!
However, Fleagbag has of course a very mature and psychological approach on betrayal. I highly recommend watching season 2. It's first of all MUCH BETTER than season 1, and second you can clearly see how she tries to do better (not only with her sexuality, but also with her sister and other people around her). The first season is obviously about denying and grieving, while the second one is about healing. You might like it :)
@@KatStawp I think I should consider finishing the series! I love Phoebe Waller-Bridge, and now that I'm a bit older and feel a bit better I might be able to handle it. Thank you for your kind words and encouragement to finish the show 💕 I hope you have a wonderful day today
I do not like her as a person nor do I understand her because that’s just a no no for me BUT I do feel for her and I love that she actually suffers the consequences of her actions
I actually didn’t like fleabag at all as a person, but I liked her as a character. I liked how complex she was.
I think the office actually kind of does this well with Michael. He’s the “other woman” and he’s fed all these stories about how the girl he’s seeing’s husband is just terrible so he feels justified in his actions, but then he meets the guy and actually realizes maybe he was in the wrong. It’s the only one I can think of off the top of my head though, and with a guy so it’s a different situation
omg i wish u had mentioned one tree hill here how brooke’s boyfriend literally cheated on her TWICE with her own childhood best friend even after she gave both of them another chance n they live happily ever after like?????
My husband and i watched Gossip Girl together as he'd never seen it and I waited for him to hate Serena and he didnt let me down and ended up calling her Seren-ho.
We ended up loving Chuck and Jack Bass even more because they are at least honest about being douche bags, they made no BS lies about their motives they wore the crown of douche baggery openly, Seren-ho was always playing bitch-victim and with the most convoluted reasons at times it wasn't endearing it was repetitive.
Thinking about it. This is such a soap opera trope. But I wonder if one of the reasons that this type of "story" telling is rooted in the: "I wish I could make So and So fall for me." OR "I wish I could get all the guys like So and So." Or "Why doesn't So and So see that he would be better off with ME?" Soaps have been doing this for over 70 years. Sadly.
Actually, I've seen this in real life a lot and it's usually "friends" doing it to friends
Theres honestly part of me that feels as tho it is unfair to include a character written by Sam Levison on this list due to rhe fact that he is creatively bereft...if somehow someone else was writing Euphoria, Cassie would have a legitimate character arc (that could literally still include being babygirl)
My best friend in high school would always act like she couldn’t stand whoever I was dating at the time, then she “sideways salsa’d” with them. Ugh.
Anyway, this is the first video I’ve seen of yours and I’m loving your presence & euphemisms.
they get away with it irl too, but like why would they even want a man that you can steal crazy
I would recommend watching Fleabag. The main character could fall into this category with what she did, but I still think her journey is deeply human and beautiful.
I do also feel some kind of sympathie for Cassie. What she did is absolutely shitty, but Cassie is in dire need of therapy, she pretty much uses Nate to hurt herself and SHE NEEDS HELP. I'm definitely on Maddie's side, but I do feel terrible for Cassie.
Blake and Emily are absolutely disgusting and the fact that they face barely any consequence for being like this is annoyiiiing. Though in Gossip Girl, the pitch is literally 'rich people being awful'.
I hate how there are people defending these actions and blaming it all on the taken person also. Like whether a man or woman sleeps with a taken person, they are complete home wrecking garbage. Unless they are unaware of the person’s relationship, they are choosing to get involved with a taken person. Both people are to blame.
Serena also cheated with Dan when he was with Vanessa and she was with Nate 😭😭 so 5 times LOL
Idk why isn't the guy blamed here
if he was really committed, no one can "steal" him...
as someone that’s had this happen, it’s so jarring and heart breaking idk if i can ever get over the betrayal! truly only of my least favorite tropes and it’s never done (emotionally and psychologically) right
I agree, making the main character not a girl's girl sends the wrong message and I don't even understand where or how this trend started.
One of my least favorites of this trend is Gilmore Girls because Rory was briefly reprimanded for it and then everyone acted like nothing happened
My guess is that it happens as a way for men to excuse cheating and shift the blame to someone else, and they get the added bonus of pitting women against each other
I mean, I think that, when it actually happens in real life, it is a way more complicated scenario than what it is shown on TV and guys are to blame too ! Sadly, between girls, it can have a lot of competitions, especially at a young age when they lack a lot of confidence. I am not saying that these behaviors are forgivable but understanable and that society is tough on women. It leads them to compete against themselves and sometimes it goes on them arguing over the same guy because of jalousy and lack of self esteem.
As much as we should blame full grown women for knowingly going after a taken man, I feel we should also acknowledge that the man isn't completely innocent. Of course, if you thought you were going after a taken man, that's a red flag, but the man also shouldn't cheat on his girlfriend/wife. Both the 'homewrecker' and the man are to blame in this situation, unless the homewrecker didn't know he was taken, which of course means the man lied to her and we should wholly blame him.
Rory on Gilmore Girls is a not girls girl she’s an example of an NLOG which she didn’t really start out that way but once she entered Yale she grew down honestly
Jessa and Adam pissed me off so bad. I still can't believe they had those two playing in my face 😭
Yeah, but at least Jessa didn't get away with it. Her friendship with Hannah never recovered.
I can assure you that is not common with me or my friends. The comments though have me worried. Why are there people who have had this happen to them irl, that's awful!
so glad i subscribed bc i need these video essays.
why is none of the blame on the man who sleeps around while in a relationship
Apologies! I should’ve said it right at the beginning of the video but 21:33 I acknowledge these guys are all pieces of sh*t too! The main point I’m trying to make here is the specifics of these being main characters we’re supposed to be rooting for with little to no consequences for these actions whereas for the men in these scenarios they aren’t main characters and in cases like Nate Jacobs and Tripp from Gossip Girl the show does frame them as pieces of sh*t which is great but with the girls they don’t hold them as much accountable if that makes sense?💕
I understand why Cassie gets the hate, I do and she fully deserves it but I give her a little bit of grace because she has rampant daddy issues however I absolutely hate Serena and Emily, because they pretend to take accountability but they don’t. Serena slept with her best friends boyfriend and we looked past that because “Nate and Blair were not meant to be”, but then she kept “falling in love” with taken people. They take absolutely no accountability but the show makes the wife or the girlfriend “mean” so we can be okay with the fact that this MC has no moral compass.. not adding that Serena did this to Blair TWICE lol
Damn no emma nelson from degrassi bc she's the first person when I think of the not a girl's girl trope
We can add Elena Gilbert the number one self centered victim playing ever who has 0 problems to sleep and date with the man who literally abused psychologically, physically, sexually and emotionally one of her two best friends and HAD THE AUDACITY to gaslight this same friend who didn't reacted well of this news (not even for her trauma but for ELENA SAFETY)
I have a friend that recently entered an affair with a taken man and everytime I criticize her for it I’m “jealous” and “hateful”..
A man is not property that someone can steal. If someone F**** “your man” you should thank them for showing you who he really is. A man who steps out on his relationship… let’s hold him fully accountable.
Personally I found this whole video pretty gross. But then again I don’t think people are property- men or women. Women need to stop fighting over shitty men and blaming each other.
Nope blame both of them because it’s fucked up on each side
I dont think we were supposed to lime cassie in season two
But like...ok being angry at a girl, but why so much? She is a bad friend cause she did not immediately told on your man, but also if he can't keep in in his pants, that's a trash of a person, go get yourself another one, there's plenty
The only show that had me rooting for the homewrecker and the cheater was Scandal. I wanted Liv and Fitz together sooo BAD 😂😂 Buti I think it worked specifically because Liv and Mellie were NOT friends lol
The lead singer from my church did this to me. It’s a big church, and I just gotta sit there and watch everyone tell her how amazing she is…
The sad part is these girls being bffs and one backstabs the other ISNT unrealistic.
I mean having no conveniences is kinda a thing IRL lol
I'm extremely heartbroken, miserable, I've lost all my self confidence, just splashed into th fing wall, and that won't heal, while she got away with nothing. She is still happy, she has all our mutual friend's approval she can still live her life as if nothing happened. While I can't, I can't even breath without anger. Sorry for the rant
we call these 'enişteci kızlar' in turkey which i can roughly translate to girls who go after their girl friend/sister's boyfriend/husband, aka their brother-in-law. this happens very often in turkish shows as well, even with their blood sisters. it happens irl too, which is a whole nother topic
i generally agree with you but i feel like in films and tv shows lots of characters do insane things (like even murder) where the audience still roots for them and is supposed to (vampire diaries, prison break, game of thrones, la casa de papel). it does make a character more interesting i guess (while it also really depends on what kinda show you're watching...) but i also don't like seeing the "not-girls girl character" being glorified so i'm 50/50 on this topic yk
Murder is illegal.
Cheating is vile.
There's the difference.
There's instances in which murder can be justified (self defence, etc) but there's not, and will never be a justification for cheating. It's not something that you do because you had no choice or your hand was forced. It's something you do because you're a bad person.
That's all.
@CiaLaVirago But that's not true though? Cheating is usually a result of an unhappy relationship, hypersexuality, trauma, abuse etc. Like a lot of ppl do it because they're total dirtbags, but ofc there's causes behind it and it's not as bad as murder lol.
Finally. Some sense on the web.
Every day that goes by, I am more and more grateful that I bailed on Emily In Paris after the first five minutes of the pilot. I just got a bad vibe _immediately._
Also, we need more Legally Blonde type plots. Where the girls hated each other over a man but in the end they were like “we ruined a potential friendship over _that_ loser? Fuck him, we’re gonna build a friendship even though the world tried to tear us apart and leave that asswipe behind,” rather than the friends forgiving and forgetting like it was absolutely nothing.
The Secret Lives of College Girls shows a relationship between a main character and a guy that has a partner whom the main character has never met. If you wanted to watch that lol
5:46 there’s a movie called the other woman and it doesn’t pretty well
Girl!!! Fleabag shows it all....
Camille from Emily In Paris isn’t really a girls girl either, she got worse in season 4
omfg thank you so much for making this video these kinds of plot lines / characters frickin ruin shows for me because i just cannot deal and not forgive. it's immersion breaking!!!! and they suck why would i want to root for them!!!
this happened to me. we have matching tattoos in each others handwriting. I was at her first wedding. she's a therapist and he's unemployed. I cut them out of my life and trust God to take care of it.
I know they are the worst but sadly it’s kind of true that people don’t pay for their actions
i would just like to add 2 more girls to the list that stole someone's boyfriend but shows made it seem ok
- Peyton Sawyer from OTH - she married Lucas in s6
- Kelly Taylor from BH90210 - she got in a relashionship with Dylan, twice, had a son offscreen with him...
i just don't like those 2
It made me so mad the way people were defending Cassie for literally fucking her best friends abusive ex-boyfriend and the big excuse was that she had daddy issues and abandonment issues and she sexualized herself for validation and the love she never got. I empathize with her character, but I definitely do not sympathize with her character. she knew what she was doing was wrong and she continued to do it? then afterwards she has the audacity to stand by Nate and insult her sister at her show because she’s humiliated by the action she made.
I CAN’T STAND SERENA😠
I love your videos 😊❤
They always had this excuse for the best friend back stabber to get sympathise what she did. I understand my plot. So my ex bestie is getting married with man that forced kissed me, almost fucked me. I understand her side, that she just a small minded person. I just realised by the decision she made that actually a pattern since the first i knew her. So, yeah. They are great together and i deserve better people in my life.
I'd like to submit for the academy's consideration: RORY FUCKIN GILMORE
Hot take: you're not supposed to be rooting with the main character. That's not mandatory at all.
I do not defend Serena, but I can put up with her more than I can with Emily. Because people got angry at her, they called her out while this does not happen to Emily.
And then we wonder why there's all these unfaithful dudes. In all of these, the cheating is presented as "well actually she's his true love." Yeah, until the next "true love" comes around. And then we get dudes on their third or fourth marriage because you know, all of them were his "true love" at some point.
I had this happen, it wasn't fun at all. Being friends afterwards like nothing happened is not realistic. Most somewhat realistic is what happens with Blair because she's forever resentf about it. Buttttt Emily in Paris? Nah. Camille is such a likeable as well so idk why they did that
Loved this video and I’m so glad there’s someone who despises Serena as much as me. I think it’s important to to mention that he recorded Dan without his consent when they were fking 😭 just to get revenge on Blair she’s insane
Who took your gummy? Lol. This video felt personal.
Ahahhaa yess 😂
Ok. And? Even if it happened, her feelings are justified. Or are you implying otherwise?

@@goldenstrawwitch i don't think that "revenge" means what you think it means.
Emily is the worst, that show needs to end
This arc is actually so dumb that I swear we all just hate watch it
I did steal a friend’s man in high school. But that was because he broke up with me to date her. So I really wanted to break them up. Then I got to know her, and wish I went after her. 😅
I need to know people's thoughts on this:
There was a guy I never dated but I was in love with him for seven years. We had a messy on and off friendship and he actually caused multiple ******* attempts. Is it okay for my friend to date him?
I really don't mean to be a "hater" if anything I'm giving you interaction with this. But girl, the whole point of that trope is that it IS a terrible thing to do, especially to a best friend. If it makes you that upset....that's kind of the point
Except not really. A lot of the time, girl will be a homewrecker, and then the rest of the world will bend over backwards to reassure her it's ok, it's not her fault, or romanticise the whole situation as a "star crossed lovers" type of romance.
The problem with the trope is that it's never done right. And the consequences are never what they're supposed to be.
This is my save space okey, i dont get jessa not for the first moment, the way people ship Jessa and Adam its just no.

I HATED serena the whole entire time watching gossip girl, she is rotten and insufferable
Sorry, I can't listen when the microphone is constantly getting the PBHH puff sounds :(
I'v only seen gossip girl and emily in paris. They are both such main characters. I havn't seen the other 2 you mentioned.
I don't just blame the girls, though. The men are just as in to it.
both need dumped.
glad to be a blair girl
When are they gonna do a series on that one guy who dates 3 girls from the same group and thinks they won't find out but obviously they do cause they are friends? 😂 cause that did actually happen in highschool.
Cassie was vile
atleast with Serena the guilt lowkey ruined her from inside out
Peyton from Tree Hill belongs in the top 3 and not in the 2 nor 3rd spot. Brooke deserved so much better.
there's that horrible movie Something Borrowed where they literally try to gaslight you that is justifiable for the protagonist to sleep with her best friend's man because the fried is obnoxious and annoying LIKE THAT IS A JUSTIFICATION. And we spend the whole movie watching this mischievous b**** deceasing her best friend
i hate this movie so much makes me rad
The way people defend serena is insane.like both blair and serena are selfish horrible people.
Yellowjackets is the only show that this well
