"Also, just because you can't relate to a character does not mean you have to bash them."

Ah, this! This is what was bugging me about this Secret. Like, holy shit OP... do you treat real people like this too? If you can't immediately and directly relate to them and their experiences you just HATE them? Hate, really? I know you're only talking about characters and maybe you're able to compartmentalize really well and none of this reflects on your attitude towards other things but good lord this speaks to a huge lack of empathy. It's okay to not relate to some one and therefore not LOVE them or anything, but to HATE them because you don't relate to them? Seems like an overreaction.

Maybe they more hate them as a reaction to being told over and over that the purpose of a female character is to be the otherwise-undeveloped Love Interest And That's All Folks. I know I feel a stab of resentment when I unexpectedly encounter that kind of crappily written character in an otherwise-decent piece of media. it's like the creators of the piece are being all "This is what all women are or are supposed to be, so accept your limitations." With real people, it's so very much NOT the same thing at all, because those people DO have personality beyond making out with the pretty white guy male lead.

Pretty much sums up misygynistic Who under Sexist Moffat.
