    I find it odd, Quicksilver is rarely used as a main character yet two studios are making sure he's gonna be in several movies like he's some sort of character that draws a huge crowd.

    Comics need full rep. Especially since all Romani characters seem to be half. Even though that'd be very unlikely in Europe. And are usually done that way because of magic association.
    Someone being half doesn’t mean they don’t belong. Also, Pietro and Wanda were raised by Romani parents through their childhood. That is their culture.

    So they’re not Romani if their only their mother is
    And they’re not Jewish if only their father is

    Which means that they’re just regular white dudes? lol

    I never said that. I said that it's not exactly that rep though. No one being fully Romani is not a good thing. Especially when they are doing it to European Romani. Why do they all need to be part white?

    And if you say someone is Romani just based on who raised them then you have no idea how any of that works. I am of descent. It is not passed down via your mother, and is not adopted just because you are adopted. You'd still be a white person with poc parents.

    Me either, really. Romapop tried to help them out. Didn't seem like they listened too well.

    They'd still racially be half Romani, just have none of their traditions passed on. Eventually it does get to a point where you are just considered white. I'm partially of descent and considered white. White because it makes up now more of my DNA then having traces from India. More because of how I was raised and with what traditions without Romanipen.

    I didn’t say that. You’re cherry picking my words. With a Romani mother and the fact that they were raised by Romani parents, I think that is good representation. I’m sure not every Romani person believes in archaic determinations of lines of succession, just like not every Jewish person believes in it anymore either.

    It is not good representation. If they are half, and all other Romani are half in comics. And all of them are filled with stereotypes, that is not good rep.

    It is still a determination if you are considered Romani, yes. I am not considered Romani. I am partially of descent. And it'd be weird of me to pose as full blood having been raised with Romanipen when that isn't true. It's not an archaic determination. It's just the truth. If you are of descent, you are just that. You aren't full blood, no matter how that affects your feelings. I have a lot of respect for my elders and ancestors and would never try to misrepresent them by pretending to be full blood and having been raised with Romanipen. It'd be a form of appropriation. And an exaggeration of my bloodline.

    Traditionally, if the mother isn't Jewish then the kids aren't Jewish.

    Yeah that’s what I meant. Lol

    I guess they are still Romani and Jewish DNA wise as mentioned
    Just not culturally… so I guess this depends on where you sit in the genetics vs culture argument

    They aren't Jewish DNA wise. We don't know who their current father is. Their mother Natalya is Roma.

    That could change with ToM, but it might not.
