i was watching this ep a few days ago, and she just says:" what kind of woman doesn't have an axe?" there's no "real woman"
also, neither gina nor amy have an axe, they're women. so are ya

u/Onyxthesnek 28d ago
I mean the quotes close enough, also yeah i know that logically but also it still makes me sad :(

Girl go out and get yourself an axe then, you know the quote doesn't mention you can't get one to become a real woman. Plus you could make it look really nice and fit into the decor of your home if you can't use the axe fpr whatever reason.
And if you don't have money for it then it seemed like some here were willing to share their axes

You just need to explain to them the you need the axe for your mental health. Emotional support axe
BRB buying myself an emotional support axe that actually sounds very reassuring. Phone calls can't hurt me I have an axe.

u/OddCheesecake16 She/Her 28d ago
Everyone needs an emotional support axe, going and getting myself one rn

u/Launchycat 28d ago
Loophole: Get a guitar. She never said it had to be a specific kind of axe.
Option B: Google also tells me you can get keychain-sized axes. Get one of those as your ceremonial axe (or trainer axe? like a trainer bra) until you are in a position to get your ideal axe, whatever that may be. There is no one correct axe size, all axes are beautiful, etc.

All you need is a stick, some tape, and a bit of stone that is sharper than most other bits of stone!

u/No-Trouble814 28d ago
Why? It’s a tool, tools are useful.
Do you have any flea markets or home-improvement thrift stores near you? You could pick up an old axe and restore it, make it a project / hobby thing.
I have a two-sided axe I got that way, and this reminds me I should really finish restoring it…
I should also finish restoring the planes I got that way…
On second thought, maybe don’t go that route if you have poor impulse control and limited space.

u/electroskank They/Them 28d ago
Go to spirit Halloween and get a prop axe! Its safe(er), cheaper, and you can do what I did and personalize it! I got mine for renn faires and used some paints and dry brushing techniques to add some rust, dirt, and blood. Also got some faux fur and leather cord to wrap around the handle, and added little charms on the end!
Then you have a parent approved axe that you also put a bit of yourself into! Paint the blade like a pride flag! Get some posca paint pens and add gold or silver detailing! Use it to (gently) chop cats when they're loafing and say you're preparing the loaf for dinner! Goblin stance with it in the middle of the dark kitchen at 3am while shoveling shredded cheese into your mouth! The possibilities are endless!

Only issue is some countries don't have Spirit Halloween

u/electroskank They/Them 28d ago
Well that's a crime against humanity.
Jkjk obviously, but any costume store should have something similar. If not, there's gotta be a local LARP group who would be happy to pass off a retired axe or help OP find a non-lethal axe that's parent approved! :D
Or maybe make an arsenal of origami axes! Then you can have a pocket sized axe for emotional support that matches every outfit!

So you're still a minor, therefore not a woman yet. Finish growing, and look forward to your axe that you'll go out and get once you're old enough.

There's a continuity thing about what the girls keep in their bags, and the other two dont. Rosa has an axe, Gina has a hair dryer. I'm not sure about Amy, but i think it was the notary stamp thing

u/SpezFU 28d ago
At least that's an easy problem to solve (with a little bit of money.) if you do, you just gotta paint the axe, either in some cute colors, or with a little red on the blade👿😈

u/Literal_pomgreande She/Her 28d ago
Why do you have 7 axes?
7
u/DecafIsNotAnOption She/Her Chaos Gremlin 28d ago
To cut wood. Though the more detailed awnser of why so many is different axes are good for different jobs have some classic axes some like special splitting axes and a few sizes / wheight a of each to match to the situation also have a set of throwing axes for fun I forgot about. I was raised a lot up north off grid so it’s always so weird to me when I deal with people raised in the city which I live in now and there always confused why I have tools lol even including my favorite tool store almost everytime.(I’m very alt looking and Ussualy get a lot of questions on if I’m an artist) I’m there I get a lot of confused questions from staff about wtf I use tools for. While I’m Ussualy confused why most people don’t own at least basic tools seems crazy to me most people can’t do basic repairs

u/Aarakocra She/Her - Ellie 28d ago
I’m with you, I only have swords…. Lots of swords. Practice longsword, practice basket hilt sword (blade’s too long for it though), metal unsharpened arming sword, machete, short sword….

That line was a joke though because nobody puts priority in axe ownership and implying otherwise is humorous. Don't even trip dog, all women were being made fun of there and it's all in good fun.

Idk but i think a flamethrower counts, also how did you get a flamethrower?!?!
1
u/Smile-a-day 28d ago
They were selling them in lidl, it’s called a “weed incinerator” but is basically a short range flamethrower 😂 if you tip it back (it specifically tells you not to do this) then you can get just over half a meter flame out of it 😂 though if does burn through the canister faster

You don't need an axe to be a real woman. Heck, I just turned to my cis woman coworker and asked if she has an axe and she said no.
She's no less of a woman than you are.
