User blog:BlackGiro/Is The Loud House sexist?

Ok, this post is going to upset a lot of people, but is something that i always wanted to talk about: is The Loud House a sexist show? I mean, while the show is most of the time considered fairly progressive, there are times while the writers do rely on sexist stereotypes because they think it’s funny.

Before i start it, i’m going to say one thing, i’m a very liberal person and i really despise sexism and double standards and this is going to be a controversial post.

The Loud House is often praised for depicting the LGBT community in a positive light, but the show got harsh criticism due to the occasional sexism and double standards.

One of the most well-known examples is Lincoln and Ronnie Anne’s relationship, some fans had criticized their relationship for being abusive since Ronnie Anne was introduced as a bully and due to her sometimes picking on Lincoln, there’s also Lincoln’s sisters, who can sometimes act like flighty Valley Girls if the plot demands, which some people consider it to be somewhat misogynistic, there’s also the infamous episode "One of the Boys" which portrayed the GenderBend version of the Loud sisters as obnoxious male stereotypes, which enraged many people.

My thoughts on it? I agree.

These sexist moments(minus Lincoln and Ronnie Anne’s relationship)aren’t unintentional, they actually exist to show the differences between men and women and how they deal with certain situations and is kinda...outdated, Lincoln is often portrayed as being a brave and active leader while his sisters, despite having distinct personalities, are usually depicted as being meeker and more passive than Lincoln and often need his help to solve their problems.

Sure, the show stopped relying on sexist stereotypes after Season 2 and the Loud sisters started to get more screen time and they became more proactive, but most people best remember the earlier episodes of the show.

Conclusion: While The Loud House have some sexist moments, the show is still pretty enjoyable and fun to watch.
