I’ve been facing some discrimination in the Finnish Winx group, and honestly, I don’t understand why. People seem to have preconceived notions about me, and I guess I’m just a bit different from most. But I’m not a bad person.
I really hope I can be accepted here for who I am. I’d love for this to be a space where everyone is treated with kindness — no exclusion or discrimination.
I'm sorry to hear you had a bad experience with other winx fans, I hope that youre enjoying your time on the forum and have only had those positive experiences!
^Also, griffin is a great character! Definitely the best of all the professors introduced, and a really cool character in general. If you think about that time period, there weren't a whole lot of morally grey characters, but I would say she's a great example of one. She loves all things spooky, and all witch magic is charged through negative emotion, but she isn't actually evil or that mean, she's just really honest, true to herself and enjoys good mischief here and there, I hadn't thought about her character in a while though so thank you!
So far, my experience here has been mostly positive, and I’m really grateful for that ❤️ But I’m still scared… what if discrimination starts here too? Lately, I’ve been crying so much. It feels like even small things suddenly grow too big to handle.
I often wonder why I love Griffin so much.
As a kid, I imagined another world—it was my escape from real life. I used to pretend I could go to Magix, and that Faragonda would take care of me. Later on, I started thinking more about Griffin instead. That thought made me feel stronger, and eventually I truly fell in love with her character. I felt ashamed of it and never told anyone.
Griffin is such a powerful authority figure, and I especially love how she was near the end of season one—how she saved Bloom from the Trix and left with her toward Alfea, the magical school for fairies.
In a way, she reminded me of a teacher from my school days. I was bullied back then—quietly, in ways that were hard to notice—and even though the teacher didn’t stand up to it, they were still a strong authority figure in that environment.
Even now, I sometimes dream about those school years… and in my dreams, it's often Griffin who appears instead of that teacher.
my favorite is mirta :]
