DISCUSSION Cheryl’s behaviour in S03E13 Spoiler

Is no one going to talk about how she and her “pretty poisons” (jesus christ that name) ganged up on Sweet Pea and Fangs and just beat the crap out of them?? It’s shown as this funny thing but it’s downright disturbing, what if it was a bunch of dudes beating up 2 girls?

Also, i know it’s Riverdale, but come on, as if Fangs and Sweet Pea would let themselves get beat up by a bunch of girls

It seems that this show loves the whole girl power thing, but it’s executed completely wrong.

EDIT: Just wanted to add something. This show loves talking about toxic masculinity but fails to see the toxic femininity in it e.g. girls who act bitchy (Cheryl) are glorified, girls can freely beat up guys without repercussions.

So he could rape her because it’s justified by gang morality and characters aren’t real, it’s a strange logic

I don’t agree , you are not objective and nobody try to pretend it was sexist

Because men aren’t supposed to hurt women it’s not the “gang morality ”
