I agree, the thing a lot of people don't seem to get is that there has been a LONG history of movies portraying male stalker/abuser behavior as romantic, and female stalker behavior as nuts. So people will yell that 50 Shades of Gray is "just porn" and anyone who condemns it thinks women can't tell the difference between reality and fantasy, but the thing is, it's marketed as a movie. Not porn, just a movie. So of course people are going to see it as just one more movie in a long line of movies that romanticize stalkery behavior in men.

People would probably also be more okay with it, if the same thing with the genders switched existed, so that it didn't seem so much like society thinks dominant, abusive man = romantic, while you can't even have a dominant woman who isn't even abusive (and the abusive ones aren't portrayed as romantic).
