It’s like on Buffy the Vampire Slayer (also starring Sarah Michelle Gellar) where Willow isn’t even meant to be the hot one, but there’s still just something about her.

Guys always lusting after those lesbian witch next door types.

u/BlooPancakes Jan 27 '23
I don’t get why we guys be lusting after lesbians knowing there’s no chance in hell. It’s actually kinda funny cause I know they are thinking the same thing I was thinking “oh maybe she’ll try a guy and it’ll be me”.

I mean, you can't tell someone's a lesbian just by looking at them lol. Obviously I'm talking irl cause usually they make it obvious in media such as movies and shows and shit.
Only way to know (unless they're in a relationship and it is obvious, or they very obviously flirt with girls) is to actually talk to them. Hell even with those exceptions I added they could still be bi.

Willow was my super big crush. The something about her is that she looks like someone who did things at band camp that’s a American pie reference AND I mean it about her!

Velma is damn near a kink, to be perfectly honest, as someone who watched Scooby Doo as a kid, it makes me unhappy

u/Drudgework Jan 26 '23
Does this mean the HBO version is kink shaming on top of being racist and advocating the sexualization of minors?

There are very few people who haven't imagined velma posing in a suggestive manner while "looking for her glasses".
Velma is one of the most popular fictional characters in porn and fan art.

Velma is what they call "hollywood homely." She's the character who is considered completely unfuckable because she has a thick build and glasses, even though in real life she'd have more guys on her than the "hot" characters.

u/faustsyndrome Jan 27 '23
It's true in a lot of manga and manhwas. In Omniscient reader's viewpoint the main character of the manhwa is constantly being told he's ugly especially compared to the "main character". Not only do they look the same my wife has told me that both are hot.

It’s funny and I never really cared that much for the original to get upset about the characters changes. It’s pretty simple really. I do like all sorts of different kinds of shows too if that makes any difference

u/DarthWidi Jan 26 '23
Hear me out.
It's so socially common that Velma is hot that people often ignore the more traditionally looked at as a hallmark of hotness, Daphne. This makes Velma the more popular choice and Daphne the outcast.
Being most people like to reject social norms and stand out more from their peers, this makes Daphne the more obvious choice for people that like to buck the trends and not follow the crowd.

Please put an NSFW tag on this. I was on the train and when I saw this I had to start furiously masturbating. Everyone else gave me strange looks and were saying things like “what the fuck” and “call the police”. I dropped my phone and everyone around me saw this image. Now there is a whole train of men masturbating together at this one image. This is all your fault, you could have prevented this if you had just tagged this post NSFW.

Velma wasn't even hated or made fun in the original series. The gang were just a friend group. Velma is a nerdier and modest than the rest but that's it.

Nobody likes the badly-written fanbase-insulting garbage Velma. All other Velmas? The good Velmas? Even the erotic fanfiction Velma who’s black, lesbian, and well written? We love them. Not the “Velma” Velma. She’s low-quality garbage.

She's not ugly but she definitely isn't that hot for sure. I picture her like 130 pounds little chub (just what I like) but she wears thick glasses and doesn't try to look pretty so she looks like a 4 out of 10 but if she gets better glasses does her hair better she could probably be a 7 out of 10. The live action movies from way back when she was good looking.
