Personally, I don't like the term "Mary Sue" because I've seen it used incorrectly on soooo many female characters that were the exact opposite of Sues. Like, pretty much every female character out there, regardless of personality and traits, has been called a Mary Sue at one point.
The term just leaves a bad taste in my mouth and I'll never be comfortable using it.

Since when are people "allergic" to calling a character a Mary Sue? It happens when it's not even true.

That's why people are allergic to it. It's been done incorrectly so often that people think every use is incorrect and don't want to use it anymore.

I'm talking about different groups of people, of course, not the fandom hivemind that doesn't exist. Group 1, the "calls every female character a Sue" group, was prominent a while ago. That resulted in the forming of Group 2, the group that's allergic to calling any character a Sue and is currently growing.
