I'm surprised she's getting a lot of hate. It's like the time when I used to be on the Hawaii Five-0 fandom and people hating on Catherine because she's cockblocking the McDanno ship (especially a lot of hate from the gay fanbase who's watching the show because of hot male eye candy). It's really ridiculous.

Yeah I'd kind of thought/hoped that we'd gotten past the OMG SHE'S IN THE WAY OF MY GAY SHIP!!! hatred.

Well, the odd thing about Arrow shipping is that there IS no white male slash ship that fandom can hate women over. For the first two seasons the hatred was directed at Laurel for getting in the way of the much more popular Oliver/Felicity.

Fandom was desperate for it to happen, despite knowing that the writers failed miserably at writing the "female love interest for vigilante" type. But they got their desired hook-up, resulting in a stunning case of Be Careful What You Wish For.

Meanwhile, Laurel's character (once freed from the turgid mess of Oliver's love life) grew in popularity thanks to improved writing, leading to massive amounts of backlash when she was killed off.

I don't even WATCH the show, but it's been fascinating to watch the fandom's reaction to all this.
