The Dangerous Woman is the female answer to the Bad Boy. She’s a combination of a few other popular tropes: the femme fatale with a modern tough girl edge, a cool girl heightened by the so-called ‘crazy’ woman. While she might be physically dangerous, the true power -- and threat -- of the Dangerous Woman is emotional. She embodies our society’s fear of the woman who doesn’t feel the way we expect women to, or who plays with men’s feelings. Here's our Take on how the Dangerous Woman exposes our culture’s drive to compartmentalize female emotion and sexuality, and why women are drawn to this fantasy as a means of unlocking their dangerous selves within.

I love the Take!
lyrics please
I starred in cat people 2 years ago. I was the lead. ❤❤❤ love that you put her in. I love her. We twisted the Interpretation that the Main character overcame Male opression. But she went too far and then had to die because she crossed the line she despretly tried to defend for her.
Actually in today’s world it’s MEN who face different forms of curtailment
I'm side eyeing that highlight y'all know it don't it
Also, only conventionally attractive women are allowed to be dangerous women.
Not conventionally attractive. Overly attractive
yeah pretty much. women can only be pretty to be even really thought of. so-called ugly women don't get the same amount of attention or tropes thrown at them.
@@professorbaxtercarelessdre1075 precisely this!
they are also mostly white, (as most of Hollywood is) and often the women of colours are either overtly sexualised and or only seen in sexual aspects, or they aren't sexualised at all, never to be romanticized or being a fully actualized human....am I making sense?
@@kimberleywilliams7802 yesss
Angelina Jolie’s character in Girl Interrupted deserves her own analysis. There’s so much to discuss about her.
Like what?
@@mgdkns6678 Mental health?
right!!!!
An incredible character study for sure.
I hate it because I know I shouldn’t want to be her and I know a person like that would be a nightmare to be around. But she’s so coollll lol
I actually really like this character type. It subverts gender norms by having a female character unapologetically enjoy sex, yet she's usually depicted as a genuinely decent person, and not shamed for her reputation.
I think it shows that liking sex doesn't make someone, especially a woman, evil is great. It's annoying how the media conmects liking sex to having no morals. At least the ones I've seen, which honestly isn't a lot.
thats the thing, it looks like it subverts gender norms but it actually doesn't it creates a fictional performative fierce alter ego for women, but it really is purely fictional
Gender norms my ass, if you enjoy sex so much you shouldn't care for what other think about you cuz other people gone talk even if you do good anyway.
sex is overrated really. in the end you are hooked on dopamin and oxytocin. love, emi
@@Angi3_6 ok...? So let me get this straight is women being sexualized a good thing or not? Bc the take is always crying abt how sexualized women are in film while in the same breath praising women for literally having sex and sexualizing themselves....there is no difference as far as i can tell.
How abt we all stop putting women in boxes and just accept that some like sex and being objectified and some dont like sex or being objectified.
I love how you started to use more examples from pop music culture, not only movies. Of course movie characters should be in priority, but it's also interesting to see something from celebrities experience
When it comes to pop music and the image of the dangerous woman, you have to mention Halsey and her numerous songs about being too dangerous for societal rules
I'm surprised The Take hasn't done a video on the riot grrrl movement and on alt girls/women in general. Especially since a lot of them had to fight misogyny in the scene.
The Dangerous Woman trope says it all: society judges women more harshly, and divides them into two categorizes of Good or Bad. Whereas Men don't get judged severely and harshly as women.
lol
@@jovanym2931 lol yourself
They definitely get judged harshly but they just get judged about different thing, some of the standards that have been set for women arent there for men but that's also true vise versa. At the end of the day we just gotta let people do what is comfortable to them without judgement, that's the only way to get rid of unwritten social standards for men and women
Women judge each other more than men ever could.
@@rory6984 Still women are judge more harshly
Agree that the accepted "empowering" dangerous woman are the sexy ones that still fulfill male desire. The whole "I'm a bad bitch, I appeal to men because I choose to" sexy woman in media feels like a cover up to avoid being accused of objectification because the female character claims she's independant or is respected. Dangerous women that actually challenges womanhood (Jeniffer's Body, Teeth, Proming Young Woman) get heavily scrutinized because it doesn't make men feel good the way the others do (and y'know, deniers rape culture and misogyny).
edit: also wanna make clear, not trying to slut shame or bring down women/female characters that aren't existing to be societal commentary and just existing as sexy beings. You do you! It's just worth noting how societally women are gate keeped based off how they appeal to men, even when it comes to their independance from them.
Women call it the “dangerous women” or being a “bad bitch,” men call it the “vixen.” Different terminology for essentially describing the same pattern of behaviours.
Almost every woman has an inner vixen, it just takes the right person or situation to bring it out. Which most men are aware of.
But like you stated, it comes across as a false sense of self agency. You’re still playing into male desires.
Great point! If a woman who wasn't "traditionally beautiful" exhibited all the exact same traits, she wouldn't be treated the same. Technically, Lizzo is a dangerous woman too but her figure isn't widely celebrated
@@0104brit true! Conventionally attractive women are seen as sexy for asserting their sexuality. Fat or not conventionally attractive women doing the same thing is usually seen as a joke because "lol how you can be so confident when you're "uglyyy". 😑
@@theunknown5386 nice that you and your male friends like these movies but I wouldn't make up the fact these movies were scrutinized or avoided by men who find movies addressing sexism and rape culture as a "political agenda" or "man hating". It's not just the extremist incels, sexism exists in honestly everybody and some struggle to challenge it. There are men who don't like these movies because they don't see it as for them and it triggers an internal fear of sticking their dicks in women who didn't want it and punishing them for it. Stripping men of their sexual dominance, especially by women, can be seen as a threat or insult.
No it doesn't, you shouldn't justify dangerous women its not a person you want to be. To put into perspective any man who displays the same traits as a dangerous women would not only be called toxic, but that said man wouldnt last in a relationship, becuz women don't like men who are unstable, mentally, financially, no women likes unstableness. So why is it supposed to be hot or okay when a women displays be unstableness? The media has played into your mind, you need to realize that media doesn't show the true reality. It has nothing to do with rape culture or misogyny, you women need to stop pulling those cards cuz it stops you from seeing the man's perspective.
Angelina’s career is built on it. Tomb raider, girl interrupted, mr and mrs smith, maleficent, shark tale, wanted. etc.
I remember it was during "Shark Tale", Angelina's mom (before she died) said to her "I don't know why you're the bad fish, you're a good person". And Angelina responded "Mom, not everyone sees me like you do". I think in that same interview she talked about going into the meeting where the producers were gonna explain which fish she was playing and she looked around at these pictures and "saw this fish with this big red mouth and pointy eyebrows and I thought 'They can talk as along as they want. I know I'm that fish'. That's my fish". It sucks that she was pigeonholed into a typecasted role in her early career, but at least she was self-aware and was finally able to break from that once she got older & became a director.
I would also add, that Angelina as herself was labeled dangerous.
A woman as beautiful and talented as her, had her talent wasted in her prime with such average filmography ;(
What Hollywood thinks a dangerous woman is:
Sexy troublemaker I can tame
What a dangerous woman actually is:
Demands physical and psychological safety for herself, doesn't tolerate controlling or abusive behaviour
Puts a lot of effort into her own education/career/business/self-improvement
Has her own savings and pension plan
Doesn't do the majority of household chores
Negotiates for higher salary to get compensated for her skills at the actual job market value
Doesn't do uncompensated care work for extended family
Has a healthy support system around her outside of her relationship
that pretty much sums it up, nicely done
This ✨👏
@Jordan blueberry Sadly, I think my description is also most men irl, it's basically professional men after their 20's.
@Seven Inches of Throbbing Pink Jesus Would you elaborate on what part of my comment was nonsense? You didn't give any counter-arguments.
Exactly!
Veronica Sawyer could be considered an example of this Trope, as detailed in "Dead Girl Walking." It's her who makes the first move with JD, yet she's still portrayed as a noble person.
I don't care what anyone says.... GLENN CLOSE IS AN ICON AND SHE DESERVES BETTER.
Better what? Is she oppressed or banned or something?
@@lemonringo566 Glenn Close never won an Oscar. She was robbed most of the time.
@@keishamorris5571 but isn't she famous and successful enough? Tons of actors and actresses couldn't even get to her level no matter how hard they try
@@lemonringo566 It is notabout the level of sucess she has. It is about fairness, Glenn Close made great characters that are iconic but she never wins an oscar is criminal at best. She right up there with Meryl Streep (who won three Oscars) and Frances McDormand for heaven's sake.
@@keishamorris5571 so basically you're saying that the actresses that were up against her didn't deserve their win?
How could you forget VILLANELLE from Killing Eve!!?? The Ultimate dangerous woman!! I think she completely breaks some of these boring stereotypes, is that why she's missed out??
Can't believe she's not on this video 😬😠😳
@@adaher509 So I guess these are just "dangerous" women who are not sociopaths and who appeal to men?
@@kimonaNo1 Yes, these "dangerous" women are the ultimate male's fantasy.
She’s a serial killer and besides I’d don’t think Serial killers should be something to glorify let alone the type to aspire to be I mean don’t you recall being disturbed by women thirsting after actual killers like Ted Bundy, Charles Manson, and Jeffrey Dahmer?!
One thing that wasn't talked much about is the relationship between danger and masculinity. A lot of the women portray seemingly masculine traits in not opening up about feelings, being risk takers, being attracted to women, etc. Would be interesting to learn more about why danger is classically only reserved for men and masculinity (which is probably the reason why performance of danger as an outlet is something women like to play around with).
It's a biological thing, women are empathetic and maternal beings, while men are suppose to face the world to protect his family. It's something that is in our DNA.
Anyone else see these videos and then immediately want to be the person they’re talking about?
Likewise, it's refreshing to see these sort of Female empowerment videos.
No not really but when I watch I think of which of my friends fits the trope they're talking about most, I use media tropes to relate to the world, that's why Abed is my favorite character in Community, we have that in common. For instance I'm The Weird Girl, my bestie is The Smart Girl, and my boyfriend is The Manic Pixie Dream Boy
@@bellaknightR597 That sounds like a fun trio to me. 😃
@@yolandacarroll558 Thanks! We have fun😁
No that's problem
The fact that Miley isn't on this thumbnail is a crime
One thing! Just one thing! Please tell IT to me: WHY tf do I have so many fans even though no RUclipsr is unprettier than I am? WORLDWIDE!!!! WHY??? Tell me, dear oh

Was going to say! Great video, needs more Miley.
@@AxxLAfriku maybe nobody cares and you need to unpack whatever is eating at you. 🤷🏾
@@AxxLAfriku looks aren’t everything, dear.
And begging for views on other channels is never a good look.
I want to hear your thoughts on the dumb dad trope and whether its about taking down the patriarchy or if its making fun of men with nurodivergent symptoms.
I second this! Nearly all sitcom fathers are portrayed as incompetent buffoons, and you never get the bumbling wife caricature.
@@trinaq Lucille Ball was one of only a few
@@trinaq the mom from That 70's show
I think it's just playing into patriarchal ideas; dads aren't "meant" to be caregivers or responsible or look after the house etc. They're *allowed* to be 'dumb'.
I would guess it´s actually a trope originated in patriarchy too, because for some reason paternity is rejected for being kind of a "feminine" role as the man has to take nurturing and caring qualities if you get what I mean.
olivia rodrigo is not a dangerous woman shes literally a teenager
its a persona, a concept, or a fictional character in pop music, it isnt really them as "them".
@@axis1198 yeah but as a teenager she shouldn't have a female fatale as a persona.
Even though she is young, young girls often show early signs of a concept they are willing to later embrace.
yeah but she does play a "dangerous woman" in good 4 u mv
girl, this is not twitter.
The dangerous woman is my alter ego , that's why I love this trope ☠️
Same, but in reality I'm the weird girl (specifically a smart ass space cadet, I'm a smart ass when you first meet me but once I warm up to you you'll see I'm just a weirdo in her own little world)
Precisely, it allows for a sexually liberated female character to not be shamed, but to be perceived as a person.
You mean alter ego
Same same. Dangerous.
Proof that Promising Young Woman is a masterpiece!!! 😍😍
I‘m a simple girl I see Olivia and Taylor in the thumbnail I click
I feel like this video could tie in with your video about Male Gaze vs Female Gaze.
As you said, sometimes the dangerous woman is someone who the man wants to tame (male gaze), but if we look deeper, her danger has nothing to do--- or very little to do--- with 'needing to be saved' (female gaze).
I love these videos so much.... I am totally a missionary for this channel, spreading the good word! 😂
A real dangerous woman doesn’t give a fuck what men think of her, while taking absolutely no shit and owning tf outta her life. She’s not on tv. When her mind is free from all societal programming, She is truly almighty and powerful and cannot be touched by anyone
Its so hard to become a girl like this and discard social opinion but this is the way to become free
This is the first time I ever identified with a trope of a woman, and I’m concerned for myself now, but empowered to change my course.
This reminds me of For Harriet / Kim Foster saying 'who is this for' - portraying the male gaze as empowerment doesn't actually make it empowerment.
Basically unless you're rich and attractive, you aren't going to get away with being "dangerous".
Be a decent human being first, everything else is secondary.
that reminds me of a joke i once heard which goes "be good, if you can't be good, be lucky". which pretty much sums up life doesn't it? lol
@@professorbaxtercarelessdre1075 Yeah.
Also we can't control "lucky", but "good" we can choose. :)
@@sen7826 indeed, though believe me i do wish luck was something i could control lol
@@professorbaxtercarelessdre1075 haha it wouldn't be luck anymore then
@@sen7826 what would it be then? confidence? admittedly i don't know anything about this stuff, i've seen harry potter too many times lol
Can you do: Single Moms, Tropes and the Single Girl, Bumbling Dad, Overprotective Father's, Ethnic Overbearing Mothers, the Perfect Sister figure, the Dragon Lady, the Wallflower and how we should let her bloom on her own terms, the Catholic Girl, the Fiery Redhead, the Rom Com Bitch, and the Nagging for Marriage Mom and why we need to cut loose her apron strings
That'll take them into the next decade!
But regarding ethnic overbearing mothers.......I've nearly finished watching "The Affair". In the last two series you see an Indian mother in law and she's horrible. I've noticed that Indian mothers tend to be portrayed very negatively in drama. Of course there's also the old favourite: The Jewish Mother.
This was great! But I'll admit that, like the dangerous woman, nobody wants the dangerous man either. The drunkard, violent, self loathing mess of a person. However, it DOES irk me that somehow dangerous men are seen as gray (morally) but the dangerous woman is seen as completely black and broken beyond repair in movies and TV. Breaking bad comes to mind. And how men are allowed to stay bad after they've had kids with society not judging them as harshly as they would a mom who would do the exact same things. Such as sell meth for her family
The mom wasn't dying of cancer though. If she had the same death sentence and all I'm sure it would have been very similar with key tweaks as women think and navigate problems differently than a man would.
Weeds explores that a little
In the movie "A star is born" we get to see a dangerous men that turn the danger into himself. He is a failure, addict and suicidal men. This movie was applauded for being romantic while Lady Gaga's caracter is depicted as a saint who love him for who he is. It's not a romantic drama it's an toxic horror film.
Weeds was Breaking Bad before Breaking Bad became so popular. Hardly anyone has heard of Weeds. If this isn’t a sign of blatant sexism, I don’t know what is...
@@alexandrebeaudry8377 Exactly!! In real life, we would all see her situation as abuse and, as her friend, urge her to leave him. But movies and TV always show women "standing by their dangerous man". It needs to stop.
the real question is, is there such a thing? or have women been oppressed so long, that this is just another way of them trying to lash out, be more free with themselves, and are being judged for it in the end? its like how men are often shamed, mostly by other men, by not meeting expectations of liking sports, and guns, and cars. people don't like those who aren't "normal" or "typical"
I honestly think that it’s an alternative presentation of mental illness. I believe that there’s really two different tropes here that are being represented as one - the ultra sexual party girl is in her own league. Interestingly, often these characters are hard party goers or drug users, as well as having a “tragic past” (13 from House MD). Criminal activity is also present (Angeline Jolie’s character in Girl Interrupted, Alex from OITNB, Cassie in Promising young woman). It seems that what’s actually happened is that this caricature, based on real life example, is actually a misrepresentation of often ignored mental illness in women; being put down to being “fun” and not “self destructive and emotionally repressed”.
Obviously, the above-mentioned characters are seperate to the personas portrayed by Taylor Swift (for example), as she talks more about enjoying yourself and importantly; being emotionally in touch. Hence why I think there’s really two tropes here.
@@sparksfly6149 hmmm, wouldn't know really, my mind can only perceive so much lol. i'm not that smart, but i suspect, as always there's more going on than either the video is saying, and than i'm realizing. people are complicated.
I however argue that Taylor's dangerous woman is not JUST sexual or comfortable for consumers. She is threatening positions of power too. Just in reference to her musical universe, her dangerous woman started out with blank space, mocking their assumptions, to rep era, embracing a side that is usually shamed, to the man in lover era, actually asking questions and making the dangerous woman being inspiring and a figurehead in overthrowing the patriarchy not just in sexual and pop culture domains but in work life and society too, to mad woman in folklore, in retrospect and a more mature but still untamed and still questioning everything. Her dangerous woman is also fully aware and ever embracing of her own emotions and intelligence. She is a full and true being in the taylor musical universe. The one most loved i believe too.
Yay! You included Faith from Buffy the Vampire Slayer. My forever girl crush. One of many fave moments is her drawing a heart on the window 'cause she wants Buffy to "come out and play". ❤️❤️❤️
Faith needs her own video
These "dangerous women" are actually the ones who are the most emotionally fragile.
veryy true, and insecure.
i guess its like how bullies are actually the ones most in need of a hug, we project how we actually want to be seen. at least some people do, i wouldn't really know for myself, but i'm not at all normal, but ikwym for sure
that’s the point. unstable emotional women are dangerous. they might cry their eyes out while chugging ice cream or murder you in your sleep, you never know.
Last time i was this early ross and Rachel where on a break
"Having limits to push against is how you find out what you can do."
Sylvie Guillem.
Precisely, sometimes you have to challenge the naysayers, and you might emerge stronger for it.
@@trinaq true
Easier said than done😅
okay but they used Nat Romanoff as an example of women who don't like being vulnerable. Her whole arc in Endgame and through the series was about her becoming vulnerable and letting people in, and she sacrificed herself for the soul stone! she doesn't fit the stereotype imo
yeah i didn't really notice it but when i think about it, you're right. she fits more into a category like "the strong woman who's secretly vulnerable" or something, not sure if that's a thing. its much like how tony stark is the self-interested egomaniac who over time becomes more considerate and thoughtful, to a degree at least
I love your film analysis so much and also I love that your videos make me discover news movies based on type of characters I'd love to see !
I appreciate the Spoiler Alert for Promising Young Woman.
Rodrigo though, nooooo, she's an artist, and a piece of art in the way that she presents herself.
I love the Dangerous Woman trope
How about a video (or series!) about how aging affects women differently, as seen in Wine Country?
That would be GREAT! I'm only in my 30's and I've been feeling the aging especially because of social media.
It was here! Mubi is awesome, it has the sort of movies I do enjoy!!! the video is on point as always
How to be a Heartbreaker was referenced here!! 😍
Did anyone here ever read Bitch: In Praise of Difficult Women by Elizabeth Wurtzel?
A staple on my bookcase.
@@akamego I read it after she died. I got the sense that it wasn't so much about praising difficult women as it was about warning what happens to women who aren't difficult enough.
;I love this channel. Very thoughtful. Thought provoking.
Idk, as someone who is overweight, has acne and wears ugly glasses (saving up money for new ones) I could never ever feel confident enough to try and let myself loose and possibly resemble one of the strong/dangerous-woman tropes. I would feel like clown. I'm sure many girls/women feel that way.
we shouldn't ever feel like we have to be a certain way, we should all embrace our unique personalities
@@NotJoegoldberg Yes, I agree. But not everyone can "just do it".
i hear ya, i mean, not from the same perspective, but as a male who's never felt right in his own skin, with all kinds of neurological issues going on, in an unhealthy body i can't fully control, i've never felt confident enough to be anything but a failure if i tried. all i can do is live as i am, and slowly try to be a little more ok with it
ive seen so many of these comments, and im wondering if anyone actually watched the whole video or what?? cause why would you want to be this way though? its fucking miserable if you really think about it, ive been called dangerous before, theres nothing more alienating than being called that, even more when youve spent so much effort being the one alienating yourself from everyone else, just like how the video said. being untouchable and dangerous is not the same as being strong . hiding behind a mask will never make you strong, even if the mask is shiny and beautiful and made of steel. its cheesy but like people, be yourself, its courageous
@@tahsina.c What I mean is that I COULD NEVER BE THAT WAY - simply because of my looks, and it makes me feel like shit, only pretty thin girls can do this kind of stuff and this just on its own is kinda miserable. When you're not pretty thin girl/woman you are not attractive in any kind of female-beauty category. And because we've been brainwashed to see our looks as so important - it all makes me feel like shit and I'm sure many other girls and women can relate.
Olivia Rodrigo was 17 when the song came out
I believe there is a dangerous woman inside each woman. She just must be willing enough to let her out
i think we all can be both dangerous, and compassionate, and wish we didn't have to use tropes to fulfill our desires to be our fullest, truest selves. but i guess we can't have it all :(
Starting it with Faith...having 13 in it ....this is me and mine favorite so far. ❤️
When Olivia Rodrigo or Billie Eilish burns down some guy's house, then I'll consider them dangerous.
Ok, this made my laugh as the Joker 🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@Cam-qx6yy You do realize that some time ago, a female pop star actually did that?
@@NJGuy1973 well, yeah
@@NJGuy1973 who?
Lisa “Left Eye” Lopes was the one who burned the house down, for those who don’t know
Kalinda!! I had forgotten about her. Such a fierce character.
8:33 makes me think of Love from You who is literally a dangerous woman as she's a serial killer but the twist is done so well that it's just deliciously satisfying when we and Joe find out and in turn, Joe is repulsed by his own reflection and also his technical wish. I also have a theory that Joe was so repulsed because Love was no longer a helpless woman as Joe frequently goes after helpless woman and love that their helpless. Man, too bad she was killed off in the show. I actually liked her character but apparently not a lot of people did (tbf they also had the hots for Joe so the fandom is kind of questionable). I just think she was so much more interesting than Joe even if the full serial killer season she was in with Joe had a hard time balancing two serial killers at once and differentiating them (changing Love into an emotional killer who only kills on a whim when she's too emotional which tbh is pretty interesting but this observation also comes from Joe who is an incel and clearly sexist but I think most people don't understand what a unreliable narrator means)
Can you do a take on race-bending in media? The politics and controversy of changing the race of a character
Makes me think of "undisclosed desires", by Muse. It fits perfectly with your analysis
I didn't completely got the diference between this and the wild woman
Have you seen "Wildlife"? Would really love to hear your thoughts on Carey Mulligan's character in this type of videos
I think it'd be good to talk about the privilege of desirability as well as the privilege to choose to be dangerous.
You could have used Vanessa Ives from Penny Dreadful here, too. Honestly it's the best story I've ever seen that talks about a dangerous woman.
I've seen this a lot in Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo, but I never truly considered Taylor Swift until now, great video!
I really like your videos, and I really wish that there was a list of the movies features in each video, because I'd really like to see some of the ones I'm no familiar with
Or is there such a list and I'm missing it?
Can you do the blonde bombshell next? Pamela Anderson, Anna Nicole Smith, Marilyn Monroe ecc please??
Already liked just for including Evie 👌🏽
Love this chanel
Dating a married man doesn’t make you a dangerous woman, it makes you a home wrecker.
he is a dangerous man and his wife should leave him ✌️
The Dangerous Woman you seek most-bad, smart, dangerous for real (she kills two men and pins one of the murders on her lover) and is neither redeemed, punished or killed by story’s end (she beats them all)-is Wendy Kroy/Bridget Gregory from 1994’s The Last Seduction.
i just realized that im a dangerous woman in irl
I feel like a dangerous woman when I kick ass at work. And I actually feel decidedly asexual when I’m working - my libido all but disappears. I’m more focused on unleashing my inner warrior than anything sexual. When I’m in work mode, I want to look sharp but I don’t care if I look sexy.
Also the new song Psycho by Maisie Peters pairs really well with this video among others
What's up early squad?
I tend to find the dangerous woman boring. Like, their "unpredictable nature" makes them predictable. Maybe it's because I'm not exposed to the trope as much?
agree
Yup. You’ve seen one dangerous woman you’ve seen them all. Speaking from experience. It gets old then you move on to better women.
i hear you, all tropes can get pretty boring and predictable after a while. like the bad guy who becomes a good guy, or the loser who becomes a hero, or the bad boy who's tamed into becoming a good guy.
The take just dropped another trope video, time to change my whole persona🏃🏽♀️
lol, that's why its best to just live life the way you are and accept whatever judgement is thrown your way, cause peer pressure is stupid
Yes! I LIVE for the dangerousness! It's one way of breaking out out from all, 'norms'.
It would have been cool to see some parallels between those considered wife material versus the mistress, the courtesan. Women seen as tantalizing for pleasure and those deemed "worthy" of motherhood and respectable enough to be called "wife." Also, how women and men have played into the separation for centuries.
Kalinda Sharma is a spectacular creation!
My favourite "dangerous woman" is Cara from Legend of the Seeker! :P
And this video is such a great take!
Cara was a total bad-ass. I loved how she went from mortal enemies with Kahlan to being besties.
I would like to see which kind of trope would Sansa Stark fit in, because I feel it's rare to see. Somewhat like a calm but firm and strategic woman trope!
Sansa is a Girly Girl who becomes a (literal) Ice Queen after suffering from Break the Cutie Syndrome. In other words, she's a stereotypically feminine girl who develops into a somewhat cold, emotionally reserved young woman due to trauma.
She would actually be a very good character to look at in a video about trauma or, more specifically, a video about how Hollywood portrays (and seems to enjoy portraying) traumatized young women and girls.
her arch was certainly one of the most interesting in that show, despite the final season. Tyrion was always my favorite character, though not because i related to him, i related most to Samwell Tully sad to say lol
What's the title of the song at 3:00 ? I know the song, but I always forget the title
I love the flight attendant
Gwen Stefani in No Doubt video It's My Life is the OG music video about it, at least for me.
Betty from Riverdale isn't technically "a women" she is a teenager. Speaking of, I think a video on the trope of the Oversexualized Underage Child/Lolita and the damage it can do to society would be interesting.
14:53 it's Liltih/Ms Wardwell! What show is that??
Mubi trailer song is think by Kadlia.:-) :-) :-) your welcome.
As long as weak me. Are threatened by women’s sexuality, we will see this trope.
Women sexuality is in service of men. The "dangerous" woman is a man's toy, in stark contrast with the housewife that allows a man to leads her but at the same time she has boundaries.
That being said, I love Kristen Stewart on here!!!

What movies should i watch to get more insights about the dangerous woman?
Anything discussing Taylor Swift gets my like; especially one that does it as accurately as this
I cant believe you didn't include Villanelle in this video :(
Do a video about what killed the farce movie. It can go with the release of America The Motion Picture
What about Offred/ June from the Handmaids Tale?
good point, surprised they didn't include her
1:07 left and right side which movies or shows are they?!

I would love to figure out how all the tropes fit into motherland fort salem
8:25 what’s the name of this show/film?
All is great and sexy until you scare away your crush because you intimidate them.
Just means they couldn’t handle your awesomeness
It's not because she intimidates him, it's because how much of the dangers she put herself in. The dangerous women is known to be stylish. If she gets killed, her crush will get killed too. As Clint Eastwood said in Dirty Harry, "That's a hell of a price to pay for being stylish."
