It's honestly such an alien notion to me, that all female characters are horribly written, because no? There's good and bad sure, just like there's good and bad male characters, but women are not universally awful unless all you're consuming is horribly sexist media written by horribly sexist men(and then the obvious answer here is to just stop consuming that kind of media).

Female characters are absolutely held up to much higher standards, and it gets worse when they're not-white as well, it's ridiculous. We can have ladies that are kinda shallow but also just there for fun too yanno?

Yes I can agree on that, no one owes me an explanation as to why they don't care for female characters, whatever. I just absolutely bristle at this very common mind-set that 'they just aren't written well' no, this isn't true and stop twisting yourselves into pretzels trying to argue that it is(because it always ends up coming off as low-key sexist to me, it just does).
