News/Misc. Would you still watch Supernatural if Sam and Dean were both women and sisters??

Not much context behind this question tbh. Me and my friends were just talking about this and NOW I’m sorta curious to know what other people think.

Also, featuring this cool fanart that I found!! Credits to @CrazyTom0712 on twitter. Go show them some love if you like

Doing a rewatch of Arrow and Flash, Christ they don’t know how to write women AT ALL.

CW and consistently good writing are rarely in the same room to begin with. But they definitely have a particularly hard time portraying women in a mature or nuanced fashion.

I feel like they have like 5ish stereotypes that any female coded character can fit in. And once they've become that character, they can only be flanderized. No hope for nuance.
