103: Yeah, self-hating women are really obnoxious, but aren't there girls that just don't relate to other girls very well? "I only have male friends" =/= "I don't like other women."

also, re: strong female characters-- when a writer goes out of his/her way to create a "strong female character" instead of making a character that fills a unique place in the cast, is developed as a human being and written sympathetically, can take care of herself, AND is a girl... well, those kind of characters can come off as Mary Sues, because they're supposed to be super-competent and not have any obvious flaws. (And IMO? "Girls need to be strong all of the time" is as unrealistic as "girls need to be submissive and pretty.")

146: What is this? It looks pretty.

154: On one hand, Marluxia is heterosexual in my headcanon, too, mostly because shipping him with anybody but Larxene doesn't do it for me. On the other hand... um, that's really not a polite word to use, especially not so much, and you're probably going to get flamed by a lot of people and I can't say I really blame them.

Most yaoi fans don't care if everyone else likes it. She probably just thinks you're cool with it because you keep playing along that you're cool with it. If your girlfriend is a rational person, she'll accept it if you tell her, "It's not that you're a bad artist, but I don't like yaoi/yaoi makes me kind of uncomfortable, especially because I think fandom got Marluxia's personality really wrong. Could you not show me that stuff anymore?" Aaaaand, if she's not a rational person, you don't want to be dating that. Mmmkay?

eah, self-hating women are really obnoxious, but aren't there girls that just don't relate to other girls very well? "I only have male friends" =/= "I don't like other women."

The secret was specifically referring to the "I hate other women" variety. You know, the ones who are are like "every single woman on this planet is a vapid, catty bitch so I hate them all". A few of these gems have cropped up in the comments, even. There's nothing wrong with having male friends.
