The contrast between the reactions to aespa at coachella and txt at lollapalooza
Is so upsetting and eye opening.
I don't want txt to get dragged and hated like aespa, in the contrary I wish aespa got the same reaction as txt now aka either celebration or ignoring. This huge contrast shows how girls will always get more scrutiny and hate, and at the same time it shows that girl group fans are indeed more vicious toward other girl groups than boy group fans are toward other boy groups.

OP
The comparison is valid and unvalid at the same time for me. They didn’t deserve the hate they got, although I saw most being directed at their company. At the same time there is no denying about the sneaky tactics that was used to hype it .
Regardless GGs will always have more interest and attention from others compared to BG that’s why all the reactions are magnified.
However, it turned out alright in the end they performed, had a good time and experience out of it. Hopefully whichever group goes to these festivals in the future aren’t scrutinised so severely any more
