>>5451879Yep, it's the dark side of otherwise positive female fantasies.
Positive:
>Beauty and the Beast>Naive but good girl tames and socialises a powerful beast with her femininity; gains his respect and eventually reveals the prince within.>Happy ending, positive for everyone including the community>Similar female fantasies include the cringey Twilight books in which a plane girl brings the best out of a vampireNegative:
>Joker and Harley Quinn>Naive but well meaning girl gets Nightingale syndrome trying to cure a worst-case-scenario patient, and like a pilot refusing to eject because he's sure he can right his freefalling jet, he takes her down with him>He, as punishment for her attempting to 'cure' him, gets inside her head and corrupts her>They both live in a co-dependent relationship in which they enable each other's worst possible sides, bringing destruction and chaos to the city they live in, and using their """love""" for one another as an easy escape to avoid thinking about the terrible shit they do.Every coin has a flipside, every illuminated object casts a shadow in relative shape.
