Emma Swan is a very multifaceted, complicated woman and she can have different layers to her. It doesn’t make her weak to show her feminine side every once in awhile. Falling in love doesn’t make you weak either, especially when love is strength. Not weakness.
I remember seeing an interview with Jen saying that is the exact reason why she likes the way A&E write Emma. She is a strong women but that doesn’t mean she’s not allowed to have feelings. That pretty much sounds like a normal well adjusted independent woman to me. 🙂

Aside from Rumple’s shenanigans and lying to Belle, I’m really enjoying the season so far.

I remember that as well actually.
@obisgirl Re shoelace in s4-
401 Cant tell if she’s taken it off yet (we never see her wrists or arms).
402 She absolutely is Not wearing it (we get clear images of her wrists & forearms when she wraps them around Killian).
403 Cant tell as again never see her wrist/s or arm/s (From memory she always has it on her left wrist)
Good lord I got so many feels again 😀 Only 1&1/2dys to go!
Just sticking my head in this morning to say (totally off topic) as the mother of a boy, I vehemently DESPISE a very large number of the female “fandom” and/or haters of this show and their “power to the female of the species at all costs” mentality.
I truly hope one day some of these women give birth to a male child and as he comes of age are forced to go back and read some of the hateful and ridiculous things they have written. Seriously.
Crazy stalker Killian? Yes son, if a woman ever invites you to dinner with her family and you decline but later change your mind, make sure you don’t linger outside the restaurant if you are unsure about whether you should join them. Because if you show up outside of the restaurant you were invited to and look inside the restaurant and see the woman who invited you to said restaurant you will be considered to be a sick, dangerous stalker who is obviously part of the reason women are KILLED by the crazy men who obsessively stalk them unwantedly. The fact that the woman INVITED you is in NO WAY important.
And make sure you NEVER make ANY kind of poor decision at ANY point in your entire life. Because, as a man, you will be judged by EVERY action and every decision you have EVER made – regardless of the situation and regardless of whether you regret said decision, learned from it, and regardless of how far in your past this action or behavior took place. And any woman you date at ANY point in your life must know each and every negative thing about you – regardless of how long ago the negative thing took place. If she doesn’t know each and every negative thing about you than she can’t make an informed decision about whether she should be with you. It doesn’t matter if the negative thing happened years before you met, has nothing to do with her, is no longer occurring, and is something you deeply regret and have moved on from.
Make sure you have NO sense of humor and don’t ever try to flirt because that is harassment, plain and simple – and you are disgusting for even thinking that a woman would want to banter back and forth with you. If a woman speaks to you – RUN THE OTHER WAY. It’s likely at some point she has acted uninterested in jumping your bones. Unless she has issued an express, written invitation saying that she wants to engage in a formal dating relationship you should assume that even if a woman speaks to you, she is NOT interested in you romantically. A woman is NOT required to tell you “I am NOT interested in dating you please stop pursuing me.” It is up to YOU, as a man, to be able to read her mind and figure out what she REALLY wants. Therefore, even when SHE flirts with YOU, asks YOU to accompany her somewhere, is concerned about you etc, always remember that your presence in her life is HARASSMENT unless she tells you it ISN’T.
My apologies but as the mother of a guy, what the crick do the these holier than thou woman WANT?????? How the heck do you raise a boy today??? What do you tell them???? What happens when your son likes a SHY girl?? Hmmm?? What then??? How exactly is he supposed to get to know her?? Because according to these screaming banshees anytime he attempts to speak to her he would be harassing her because she doesn’t APPEAR to be interested.
I so hope some of these woman end up falling for a guy they at first couldn’t stand. And when they start to warm up to the guy he flat out tells her “I’m sorry I can’t have anything to do with you. I’m aware you didn’t like me very much when you didn’t know me very well but I’m afraid that if we were to become friends now I could be accused of harassment so I am going to have to ask you to stay away from me.”
Don’t even get me started on the RUDE, out of control, FAST girls that are super common today. How do you teach a son how to deal with THOSE??? They have no respect for themselves, how are the guys supposed to show them they have respect for them when they are hurling themselves all over them????
I swear I want to SPIT NAILS as the mother of a son when I read the man hating, ridiculous comments I see so often. I seriously wonder if some people’s ONLY interactions with men have been through being abused by one or being left by one (a father). Because so many people seem to have virtually NO knowledge at ALL of decent men and seem to immediately assume the WORST of anything when it comes to a male character. Where the heck did all this male hate come from??????
We’ve hit a milestone guys!! One year ago, Oct 18, 2013, we got our first glimpse of the Captain Swan Neverland kiss in Good Form (3×05).
Here’s the original EW article.
What are your thoughts on our babies’ first kiss compared to other ones? How does this one stack up to the others?
@rumplegoldfan, did you perchance happen to venture outside our thread???? Into another thread on this site, hmmm???? Because I believe you’ve just “flipped a table” (or two) 🙂
Good for you for standing up for your son! I think there are a lot of holier than thou and whitewashing attitudes prevalent around here who can’t see beyond their narrow little world. And a lot of IRRATIONAL HATE toward a fictitious character, which cannot be healthy. This is not how the real world works folks.

I just read it and shrug with a perplexed look on me face but today it annoyed me.
Things I don’t understand . . .
“It really hurts when I poke myself in the eye with this pen!”
“Then why on earth would you continue to poke yourself in the eye with that pen?”
“BECAUSE I WANT TO.” Written proudly and accompanied with a fierce gif. Like they have just established their wildly proud, independent, and survivalist spirit.
I just look and them and am like “BUT. YOU. ARE. POKING. YOURSELF. IN. THE. EYE. WITH. A. PEN.”
A snappy retort and Beyoncé gif will never convince me that kind of behavior is healthy.
Keep on watching a show you hate folks. It isn’t MY time your wasting.
Don’t mind me, I’ll be over here watching the shows I actually ENJOY!!
New Rumple and Hook sneak peek!!!
Favorite quotes from the sneak peek:
“Should things go well and she wants me to hold her, I want to use both hands.”
My reaction:
I like how Killian wants his hand back, not for himself, but for Emma. That once again, he’s thinking of her agency, her wants, her needs. Of course, Killian wants his back for himself but that’s not his reason here; it’s for Emma because he thinks that’s what she wants, needs and deserves, is to love a whole man.
But Killian’s going to find out very quickly that the hook’s never bothered her and she loves him unconditionally, hand or no hand and she understands what the hook means to him but she also knows that’s not who he is now.
2nd quote
‘Because unlike me, you haven’t changed one bit, crocodile.’Hook’s really the only one to show consistent change since season two. Most everything he does, is for Emma. He finally cares about someone other than himself and this need to for his hand, his reasoning is for Emma because he thinks that’s what she needs. While Hook is trying to be good (blackmail isn’t good and I don’t condone it), you also have to look at the flip side as well. Hook would not have the leverage he does against Rumple if he would simply tell Belle the truth. Hook even knows that he swapped the dagger again. Rumple’s still lying to her. The more Rumple drags out lying to Belle, the bigger trouble he’s going to be in later and I hate to think if Belle were in danger, and she needed to use the dagger but ‘Ooops!’ it’s not working and she can’t defend herself, things are going to go south very quickly in that marriage. Rumple is hurting himself and Belle, by the very fact that he continues to lie to her about the dagger. .
