you know
the fact that that stiles wears this gross, sexist shirt is bad enough
but when you consider the fact that his best friend is being raised by a single mom
and he wears this in front of said best friend without consideration?
it just kinda reaches a new level of awful :S
See, here, I get you. This shirt is gross, and wildly inappropriate, but… Stiles is kind of a dick. He is a dick to Scott, he is a dick to Derek. He is even kind of a dick to Lydia.
In the Macy’s, shopping for dresses, sure he follows her, all the while making a snarky comment about it being open 24 hours. This girl he literally worships. This girl is the girl he wants to impress and have a good time with, many different times, in many different positions. He feeds his Dad, the one person we know for a fact he would rather die for than see hurt, a shit ton of liquor for information.
He is not soft or cuddly, he is not respectful without considerable effort, or threat of consequence.
These shirts illustrate exactly what gets lost when you look at his beautiful, cute, cherubic face. Fandom constantly paints him all motherly and careful, a “pack mom”. That is not because he ever actually did anything to deserve that trope, it’s because we look at him and his boyish good looks and charm literally wipe clean the slate of his sins.
He has definitely worn this shirt on front of Mom McCall. That’s probably one of the reasons why she doesn’t want him to have a key, and kinda looks at him sideways most of the time like she’s entirely unsure of what to do with him.
Stiles is rude, and so far it’s been a large part of why everyone likes him so much. I’d burn that fucking shirt id I had the chance, but I don’t know if he could have done without it.
THANK. YOU.
people, please do not pretend that Stiles is a perfect unicorn because truthbomb: he isn’t.
Also flaws aren’t necessarily pretty, aren’t necessarily things that you can spin into strengths at a job interview.
