She's like a toxic manic pixie though. They don't always have to be toxic.
They're usually NOT like that, actually.
The manic pixies usually aren't alcoholics, like they might live in a car but they don't have a bunch of the stereotypical issues people like that usually have.
Like they aren't drug addicts and alcoholics.
I think that's why the manic pixie prostitute video was so funny...
Cuz I mean, if you wanna be a hardliner about the technicalities, the manic pixie archetype shouldn't even actually be having sex with dudes anyway.
I always get disappointed in the movies where they do.
They're supposed to be this effervescent untouchable glitter of chaos that you can never really reach.
