League dynamics are interesting when you consider that despite being the only female member of the group, Toga isn't treated as The Girl by either the League characters or the author. Often in media, when there's one girl/woman in a group, she's either The Hypercompetent Killjoy or The Sexy Decoration.

The Hypercompetent Killjoy is serious and the brains of the group. She doesn't take part in her friends' antics and seems to exist to ruin everybody's fun. She also tends to dislike and put down other women.

The Sexy Decoration exists to be objectified by the male characters. Her friends or the author will constantly make comments about her appearance and how attractive she is. She often serves as a lazy way to insert tension between two male characters in a friend group by making both of them have a crush on her. This character isn't as disparaging towards other women, but that's because she's never in scenes with them unless it's to show a comedic contrast between how hot she is vs. how "ugly" the other woman is.

Sometimes, female characters will be written as both Hypercompetent Killjoy and Sexy Decoration. Hybrids will hate other women more than either individual type combined.

This doesn't happen with Toga. Toga is allowed to be goofy and excitable and chaotic and weird. Her contributions to the League's plans are valued the way everyone's are, but she's not the brains of the operation and is allowed to have fun. She's allowed to show emotions, whether she's sad or furious or joyful. She also isn't the only member who shows emotions and it's not really seen as something bad or weak.

The other League members NEVER make comments on her appearance, other than the one time Twice offhandedly mentioned her "cute face" when she was half-dead during MVA. Though, "cute" isn't presented like Twice is attracted to her, but more like a puppy is cute. Part of it is her age vs the other League members, but it's not like Teenage Temptress isn't a variation on Sexy Decoration. All that is to say, not a single other League member sees her in a sexy way and she certainly isn't used as an object of jealousy.

Toga is given the same missions as everybody else, except the one solo mission during the Licensing Exams because she had the only useful Quirk for it. She's not given "girl missions" like seduction or something stupid like that.

She's as brutally violent as the rest of the group, but she's also very kind to those she cares about. However, ALL the League members have shown kindness to one another so it's not like it's an exclusive "soft caring girl trait." They all genuinely care and worry about Toga (and each other) the way she cares and worries about them.

She's an unusual character in that it would be SO EASY to make the yandere-like girl who's obsessed with love into nothing more than The Girl of the group. In general though, she and the other League members are treated totally equally and she's integrated into their dynamic, not separated into a gender box.

Some needed wisdom

nobody asked me my headcanons on Bill's weird alien shape gender but that's only because you didn't know you wanted to know

of course he has gold bricks and pronouns

also, a friendly reminder, the world we live in now consists of an active genocide.

of warcrimes being posted on twitter by the official account of israeli government.

of people looking at children, women and men being bombed, killed, starved and butchered and saying it is okay because of a single terrorist group, THAT ISRAEL CREATED.

of westerners saying to look away from the slaughter happening in gaza because your mental health is more important than thousands of lives.

of israeli politicians straight up using propaganda from nazi handbooks to dehumanise palestinians, calling them less than human, less than the rest of us, animals.

and what one palestinian man posted on his social media hit me more than anything: “if we actually were animals, people would care.”

that tiktok that’s like “name a single hobby of yours outside of media consumption” she got em a bit why lie

I just realized today is the first day of pride month. Happy Pride month everyone!

Giggly drunk Dabi and troll Toga
