All this weird shit about “is Bridgerton normalizing mixed-weight relationships” is kind of ignoring that most TV romances are between two hot people and Nicola Coughlan is really hot
That was my thinking, as a fat woman, that weight is only one factor most people use in rating attractiveness. Being fat doesn't automatically make one a 3. Also, where is this discourse when the male member of the couple is the fat one?
There's some good points elsewhere in the thread about the hypocrisy of "mixed-weight relationships" being fine the other way around, but it also bears mentioning that not only are you right, but that she'd be regarded as the hottest one in the cast in the period depicted, as body norms have changed
My incredibly unpopular opinion is that Colin was just incredibly boring and that’s what was wrong with it? Nicola Coughlan is gorgeous and brilliant but even she couldn’t make up for the lack of charisma.
