Haven't finished The Crown but might I say that the show implying via Staunch Feminist Kate Middleton that the type of stalking and media interrogation William (a man I dislike intensely but I will be fair) and by extension Harry have received since literal birth, first photo opp when they were less than 72 hours old for both, people inquiring about their sex lives when they were underage en masse, people selling photos and stories about them, their mom dying because of (sorta kinda... a lot going on there) media attention in part...

is like the SAME THING as the way women in general live under the male gaze...

is truly WILD lol

#the crown #like you can say those are two immensely privileged problematic men #and also say that these things are not really comparable #i mean it literally isn't the same type of attention so you can't compare it #but also college era prince william snapping at a girl who interrupted his personal convo for an autograph at the library #is not something i think you should go WELL NOW YOU KNOW WHAT IT FEELS LIKE TO BE A GIRL at???#lmao????????#i mean if you compared it to a high level celeb girl we can talk #BUT the general 'womankind'???#it's just not the same kind of attention #and even amongst celebrity the weird situation of being royal and specifically being the child of like...#a unique beloved royal whose type of fame is extremely difficult for anyone to replicate #who then DIED TRAGICALLY #is........... very on its own lol #and i say this as someone who really hates william #that was just an ABSURD scene
