#TeamBetty isn‘t so easy to shout when it‘s 2018 & you know that pitting women against one another is a tool of the patriarchy. Sorry, Archie comics. Ah, the blissful ignorance of youth.

*I haven‘t watched the show. I‘ve heard it‘s not bad? Maybe they rectify some of these icky gender stereotypes. Ditto for the newer comics. I‘ll admit that I only reread a “snapshot” so it‘s *possible* that I didn‘t get a complete picture.

Amanda.T Thankfully the tv show does a much better job. Betty and Veronica become best friends and date different guys rather than fight over one. 7y

I‘m not willing to put in the amount of time needed to finish this whole volume, but I‘ve gotta give my girl Betty *some* attention. The book‘s organized into sections by decade, so I‘m focusing on the 80‘s & 90‘s.

monalyisha And I know it‘s not very empowering to pit women against one another, but... #teambetty 7y
Shawna @monalyisha Jughead‘s my favourite too 7y
Clwojick @monalyisha oh yeah! Absolutely 100% #teamBetty 😆 I haven't watched Riverdale yet cause I'm scared it will ruin the comics for me 7y

#feistyfeb day 13: #lovetriangles
Probably the first instance of love triangles I ever came across was in the Archie comics which as a kid I loved to hate (and also hated to love)! Poor Betty!

Mariposa_Bookworm Monday confession: I still buy and read Archie comics. I find them at the grocery store and Barnes and Noble. I love them! 8y
Suzze Perfect! Even as a kid I wanted that to end. 8y
Reviewsbylola I was obsessed with these as a kid. And I couldn't figure out who to root for because I loved Veronica and Betty both! 8y

readinginthedark I love(d) the Archie comics so much! But I enjoyed it more when they were doing their own things as individuals or a group of friends, less when the girls were being petty over Archie. 8y
Indexasaurus Have you watched Riverdale yet? Maybe it's creepy that I, a full-grown woman, love this show, so I'm just going to blame it on my childhood passion for Archie digests 😃 8y
writerlibrarian Good choice 👍🏻 8y
RealLifeReading @Reviewsbylola as a kid I was definitely teambetty. Now I'm not sure! 😂 8y
RealLifeReading @readinginthedark yes much more fun when it wasn't about the love triangle! 8y
RealLifeReading @Indexasaurus no I haven't! Then again I don't have regular tv (ie I only have Netflix!) 8y
athenapeterson #teambetty all the way 8y
