Hello! Im new here im a old ben 10 fan and a bwen fan
-
I saw this show when i was in middle school when i first watched it the concept of a kid turning into a superpowered alien interest me. I thought this superhero show was pretty original since it wasent based on marvel or dc comics. Also while watching the show time to time i noticed the weird subtext between ben and gwen and was freaked out as a kid. I remember going to youtube and saw a lot of people commenting on the subtext and making incest jokes about. What really freak me out was when one promo showed gwen being jealous of ben when he was walking with another girl. For awhile this creeped me out until i found out that ben and gwen weren't suppose to related at first and gwen was switched to be his cousin at the last minute because the creators couldn't find a good reason why a unrelated girl would travel with ben and his grandpa for so long and they forgot to remove all that subtext after the switch was made. Now my opinions soften as time went on and i ship it even if other ships became canon.
Im not much of a fan of the sequel series it had to much retcons and ben and gwen felt occ in alien force and ultimate alien. I only watched a few episodes of alien force and quit because thats when it really lost my interest.
As for the new reboot i feel like its avarage at best. I wished it was a much better reboot that dosen't follow the recent cartoon trend these days.

I’m gonna assume your talking about this promo. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=VQJOlyIXlbc
Gwen wasn’t jealous in this promo she was annoyed with Ben’s attitude towards the girl. Even if they weren’t supposed to be related they are and it’d still be very creepy.
Also welcome! -

Also welcome!@omni-triforcer Its not that promo, It was a old next week episode promo it showed ben walking with another random girl while gwen was leaning onto the rv giving a jealous glare while ben and the girl walked past gwen. That freaked me out as a kid and i remember people recording that promo and putting it on youtube a lot of people made incest jokes about it.

@bwen329 Really? They actually had a promo like that?

@tactical-ochoa Yup but, the scene never happened in the actual episode. The executives at cartoon network must have found out and got rid of it in the actual episode. Also my friend that doesn't watch ben 10 that much told me about seeing that promo to.

@bwen329 Do you remember what episode it was and where the promo could be found at?

@tactical-ochoa Sadly, no there used to be a youtube video of it but i think it got taken down a long time ago. As for the episode i dont remember which episode the promo was advertising. All i remember was how that deleted scene went.
@bwen329 Huh, interesting. Granted, I can't really just take your word for it since that there's no proof of it. I'm not saying that you're lying. There just needs to be proof that backs up your claim.

@tactical-ochoa Im sorry about that i couldnt find the video of the promo since its a really old and rare promo and youtube took down a lot of old ben 10 promos with exception of a few.
@bwen329 That's fine. I understand.

Thank god, i would not want a promo like that on youtube.
@omni-triforcer Interesting that you say that as well as also stating that Bwen is a creepy relationship considering that last year you stated that you're ok with the Bwen shipping on my Bwen page, which are now deleted except I can still see your deleted comments.

@tactical-ochoa Cant a guy change his mind? I now see that bwen relationship would be really really gross and creepy. Im not sure why you had to bring that up. I have changed my views and dont want to be associated with such a thing anymore. Do you have a problem with that?

@omni-triforcer True. You can change your mind and I'm fine with that. Granted, I would like to know and understand why. Why do you see the bwen shipping as gross and creepy now?

@tactical-ochoa Honestly how can you have a relationship with someone youve lived your whole life with? It seems like Ben and Gwen were pretty close and i dont see how they can possibly have a relationship and have it not be creepy. Step Cousins is one thing and even that is over the line but blood is another. Not only is it bad biologically for your kids but, its overall just gross.

@omni-triforcer In regards to it being biologically bad for kids, that's not what this article states. Your point would have validity if this was an ongoing thing throughout one's family tree.
