The first 1000 people to use this link will get a free trial of Skillshare Premium Membership: https://skl.sh/thetake11203 | From Romeo and Juliet to Titanic, we’re drawn again and again to tales of love that end in heart-wrenching loss. Our morbid fascination with doomed love has even given rise to an entire archetype, dedicated to the romance of dying: The Sick Girl. Other characters inevitably fall for her, and usually, so does the audience. But while the Sick Girl seems to bring positive representation to people living with illness, it’s a trope that often traffics in cliches, and it creates unrealistic expectations that can be harmful. Here’s our Take on the Sick Girl, and whether it may be time to let her go.
