His greatest skill is his innocuous appearance lol.

voila: your ken doll. please note the height ideal is 6' - 6'3", so 3 - 7" taller than the ideal female. also note that erectile function, vitality, drive and libido are present for optimal male stats, female stats only mention reproductive qualifications, nothing to do with just 'sexual health/function' (ie: nothing about female sexual pleasure or desire)
also note the 'neurocognative edge' category which describes focus, memory and decision making. Absent from the ideal female. ..because apparantly the ideal female brain is just one that doesn't get pms and start nagging (the many references to hormone regulation and EMOTIONAL BALANCE lmaoooooo)

fuck outta here mysoginy. red pilled dumbass bs.

in the same breath let me also say that the weird male ideal reeks of toxic male culture and the pressure men feel to be 'strong, logical/big man/tall/well endowed' is just as shitty and stupid. i can only speak from a female experience, but that doesn't mean i'm not able to recognize how shit the male version of ideal seems for most dudes. these aren't qualities that make an ideal man, i think. unless he's just a breeding stud and a workhorse i guess.

the only saving throw this prompt gets is that it reads mostly as a physical health ideal for what animals of the human species would likely need to thrive and reproduce. let's put this breed in a pen somewhere and glass it.

I've thought about the fact that all of HW's powers and the life essence she took from her other selves was enough to revive Finn through her green magic and reverse the original poison in his wound from the heart of the forest. ostensibly, her first plan was to tap some essence of the heart of the forest and administer that to finn. since the heart is made up of the source (god like creature) and all of the blood of the green wizards who hacked their hands off in an offering to recieve the power of the heart of the forest, it stands to reason that if she could have administered the essence she tapped in ooo that would have cured finn as well.

but would it have cured his soul? his heart? his emotions? when finn says he's thinking of dying soon, it's because he's already in a trunk in the bottom of his heart. that's where he is, alone - that's where he now finds himself. in a trunk carved with the dates of AT's original release, inside that safe space. so the thing is, when HW taps into finn's mind through fionna to fight the cosmic owl, she requires fionna as a passport because finn is not present, so she can channel his mind through fionna's because she is a finn.

now in the finale, she is physically holding finn, with her tree tendrils hooked into him - this should have allowed her to connect with his mind. but she couldn't, even while physically present with him AND having revived him with the essences of herself and her clan. the body was working again. she saved him physically. but she could not reach out to his emotional self, his heart, his soul... and needed to ask fionna for help again.

fionna shows up for finn. fionna quells finn's fears. fionna lets finn know he's loved, and that everyone screws up and is vulnerable in the same way. she shares her vulnerabilites with him, her anxieties. and finn takes her hand when offered. even when he originally shrank away from her.

fionna basically 'talked finn's soul into giving hw one more chance'. that means that even though there was a memento of HW in his heart representing her space inside his heart (boar tusk flute) it was closed off to her. he was unreachable to her. the wound was deeper than the one he recieved physically. it really underlies how important it is to not wait for a near death experience to be brave and have the courage to be vulnerable before the wound heals over with scar tissue you can't get through.
