| Topic | What's the hatred for Gwen Pool about? |
| ParanoidObsessive 11/02/18 7:36:23 PM #13: | Ogurisama posted... I think it has to do with manchilds hating women taking over their media. I feel like this is rapidly becoming the new Godwin's Law of the Internet. Straight up dismissing every criticism of a female character as sexist or any criticism involving a "PoC" as solely being racism just sort of makes the person look like an asshole, and makes me stop giving a shit about their opinions. IS at least some of the criticism probably sexist or racist? Sure. But if someone can actually articulate valid reasons why they're annoyed by something, and your response is to just ignore everything they say and go "lol sexism", then you're kind of an idiot. Personally, I think Gwenpool is a shit character. But I also like Spider-Gwen and Ms. Marvel, which kind of argues against the idea that the only reason I dislike Gwenpool is because she's female (or Tumblr-bait). It's almost as if people can have opinions more complex than the lowest common denominator. --- "Wall of Text'D!" --- oldskoolplayr76 "POwned again." --- blight family ... Copied to Clipboard! |
