My favourite part of Deadpool was how Vanessa started as a sex worker and then remained a sex worker, because there’s nothing inherently wrong with being a sex worker.

Also, how Deadpool’s primary motivation was his own crippling insecurity about his physical appearance (even though there was no real indication that Vanessa would reject him because of his disfigurement), because everyone at some point in their lives feels that kind of insecurity.

Also, Negasonic Teenage Warhead, because Negasonic Teenage Warhead.

My comment coming out of the theatre was – I’ve never seen a movie that was that overtly sexual without ever being sexist. And they wonder why women love the movie. It’s not Ryan Reynolds people! Okay, it’s not JUST Ryan Reynolds.

All of this, plus that Wade never tried to change Vanessa, we never hear him put her or her chosen profession down, never told her to stop, there was ‘I love you’s’ and ‘marry me’s’ and ‘my girl’ but not once did he call her a whore or that he wouldn’t marry her if she didn’t stop. Not to forget that instead of figuring out what he could do to live his first act, once he found out about his cancer was to memorize her face, Wade is amazing, he loves Vanessa, all of her and never condemns her for it. 

And the fact that we never see her working when she is a sex worker. They don’t put that shit in because it wouldn’t have made any sense. They don’t show Wade being jealous of other dudes buying her time. They don’t bother to act like it’s a big deal, because it isn’t.
