RE: Born Sexy Yesterday
![It's not "Born Sexy Ye I had the great fortane of eatching up with the fifth season of Samura Jack jast in time for that episode, and,well thare's a lot I eould say. But I want to jast focas on one thing what bothers me about so much media criticism-and this is coming from someone who engages in ite a bit of it-is that, in attempting to eall out tht thy And that's esacthe my issse with the "Born Sency Testerdayvideo-and essactly moy issoe with the "Born Sesy Yesterday trope being applied to Ashi (Well, aside from the fact that the whole rideo in question is a Jonathan cIntosh video, who was a co-writer and producer for the first season of Feminist Frequency's Tropes 1s Women in Video Games" series, which has this aue on top of a whole host of otbars, but that's a discussion for The For a sort of testbook defimition of the trope in question, Melntosh defines the Bo Susy Yesteday eharacs as so McIntosh: She has the mind ofa narre, yet highly-skilled child, but n mature, sescualized woman.

It seems this back to Ashi and Samurai Jack, the nasty nature of this But trope is also why I dislike it being used to criticize Ashi Just like every other character that might be described as a "Born Sery Yesterday" gal, the s sexy arn her own journey, and her own Ashi has arguably, been s much of the main character of Season Five as Jack has been. The narrative has detailed her horrific childhood, her rom her, her stubbornnes n hee ways, hee tarmoil as the truth be impossdble to demy... and that's jast in the first fee episodes From there, Ashi gets to wander the world and leam about the world on her oun, gets to diseowwe harself and who sha wants to ba on her ou, gets to face her mother and deteat her mother on her o-and that's jast separate from Jack that emphasizes that she is so much more than just some pretty "prize for him beeause he cant get any other gil (wich, loses his clothes all the te, and is seualied up the wazoo just lie is, Ain't no way this dude would have trouble getting some if he rere Tealh In any ease, the idea of Ashi finting the "Born Sexy Yesterday trope so g becase it conveniently forgets everything about her that doesn have to do with Jack and her childishness" that stems from her sheltered hersalf and doesat kmow anything. Whie it's troe that Ashi's childbood leaes her higly ineperienced in the world, her story -is all about gainin everything Ashi went through and her Think of it this ay eaday due bo be is so, so, ao ch more than Eug is all about gaining To say that Rapunzel fits the trope would be to erase basicalhy the entire movie-and I feel jast the same about Ashi in Samurai Jaek And in faet, the rideo itselfactually debks the idea of Ashi fitting the trope at a not necessarile with the female eharacters themselves. If these women who learned about love and humanity, then that wouldn't be an issne. Likewise, if the male hero as also inexperieneed and our ruo protagonists could discover le and sex together, then that would aoid most of the troubling pocer So, for example, Cameron from the Sarak Conor Chronieles TW how fits the trope, but he relatioeship as much more of a This season of Samurai Jack has been a story nearly just as much about Ashi-if not ds much-as it is about the titular Jack Season Five hasat yust been some lame male-fastasy romance, beeause any and all "romance has lways been prominently featured and her story of seif-discovery has The iden of Ashi fitting the Born Sexy Yesterday" trope is also insulting because of another aspect noted in the quote above: eqiuality. While Born Sexy Yesterday is a trope that fetishes the stark inespienced woman and is "the ultimate teacher/stadent dynamic, Jack and Ashis relationship is defined br learning from each other Jack "shows Ashi the world, if you will, and Ashi does the same for hinm later saving Jack from himself by showing him all the good he's done in the woeld with ber words. Jack fglhts his onen parsonal demons, and Ashi not master/object or teacher/stadent to seem like he knows what he's clearly doesn't have a choe (as eating the stuff turns his head into a fish) when he orders food, but he -is ise enough to lnow not to eat the seafood.She may have bean way from the world, but shes not a clueless child the episode also polt to Jack and Ashis equalny-cer at least, to the faet that Jack is not someone signifscantly above They are both high school- other.
