I am extremely, extremely uncertain whether the major premise ("no one objects when male creators fall in love with their female creation") actually holds true

I think the idea of falling in love with your creation is interesting and sympathetic, to be clear, I'm just uhhhhhh really unsure it's true that people are okay with that. I think people often get skeeved out at the idea of "author interest" shaping how female characters are created in sexualized ways. And I think Pygmalion is in fact frequently a negative reference.

[(Anonymous)]

I think you may be right

Glad you enjoyed, OP, but I think I enjoyed it even more because he wasn’t actually helpless (he had the key in his hands the whole time). There’s something about Alex clearly performing a role/character within the tasks that I find so additionally fun.

Actual post I saw on Tumblr

[feotakahari]

“Nerdy Male Director: ‘She was quirky and spontaneous and unfathomable. She was completely disarmed and alluring and so full of sunshine. She wanted to be by my side at all times no matter how much I shrugged her off, pained by my history of real women with adult-minds who wouldn’t put up with my unbearable personality. She was a golden retriever. But a human one, with boobs and legs. I made a dog into a woman and she is my dream girl. I have a degree in literature.’”

So yeah, people definitely object to men loving their OCs.

[(Anonymous)]

Falling in love with your own OC is pretty much always cringe though.

Who said it wasn't cringe when men do it?

[(Anonymous)]

what the fuck

[(Anonymous)]

Interesting and sympathetic? Idk about that. Your own creation is basically helpless, it cannot call you on anything or challenge you in any way you don't want to be challenged, and requests nothing from you in terms of time, attention, responsibility, effort, or maturity. I'd have a hard time being sympathetic to someone who finds nothing at all wrong with calling this love, or interested in any way in their particular interactions

[(Anonymous)]

Sounds like it.

Re: Actual post I saw on Tumblr

[(Anonymous)]

Wide difference between falling in love with and being the type of man who believes that lust is love. And even wider between that and the kind of bullshit that your example is spoofing.

[(Anonymous)]

Happened to me too. I fixed the typo in the typed out text and pretended that nobody noticed the difference.

[(Anonymous)]

Ah OP. I haven't fallen for my OCs, but their relationship is basically my go to happy place these days.

I dunno about AR in particular, but in general women tend to get a harder time over just about everything so yeah, you're probably right.
