“Even Twilight sometimes finds books that aren’t worth reading #SDCC “
Not worth making a forum thread over, but a lot of the mouthpiece-tagged stuff is exactly what characters would say (or even things they have said).
Might be easier to change the tag definition to how it’s actually used as opposed to forcing people to tag it “right”.
“How on earth did you turn “the character wouldn’t say this” into “wrong and bad opinion”?”
To be fair, the mouthpiece tag does tend to be misused in that manner. Heck, many images with messages that the characters actually WOULD say still get the mouthpiece tag.
How on earth did you turn “the character wouldn’t say this” into “wrong and bad opinion”?
The definition of mouthpiece is clear and is noted right on the tag page. Regardless, image comments are not the place to argue about tag definitions. If you want to start a discussion about this, go to the site and policy board.
Oh, right, the “but only when it’s a wrong and bad opinion” clause. That’s not really an inherent part of the “mouthpiece” concept, it’s just added as a way of making it into an insult when it really isn’t.
Derpibooru has a nice definition of a mouthpiece:
I doubt canon Twilight would agree at all with this book. Therefore it’s not really forcing an agenda onto her character.
It’s using a pony and a caption to express a political viewpoint, so I’d say that this does count as a “mouthpiece” picture, official art or not.
I figure Andy just made up a sexist-sounding title when drawing this, unaware that it had actually been used at all.
Clever.
I wouldn’t count it.
Which sounds only mildly interesting.
That doesn’t seem like a sexist book at all. It just sounds like a drab analysis of historical trends and changing norms.
A woman’s proper place is away from that book.
It is
Unfortunately, I think it is.
I think it’s a bit too vague. It could imply both supremacy or discrimination of women as a proper place can be pretty much anywhere. Unless it’s closer defined, which it isn’t.
