To be fair,

In canon, Tony isn't really a woobie, per se. Yes he's sensitive, but people tend to write him as overly self hating (eating disorders, what?) and finding his only joy in Steve Rogers, which is not true. So, I thought the person had a point.

Personally, stuff like Mpreg, kid fic, etc, I'll just scroll on by.

The reason, I feel that people like making Tony into this extreme woobie is that he yes he has self hating issues. And they just take it and make it consume him so he's a victim, when in canon it often drives him to take extreme measures. In canon he forgets to eat because he's busy, because he forgets, whatever, so they take that and make it into an eating disorder. His moments of despair are taken to extremes, but alot of his self inflicted punishment is in the pursuit of something, rather then self inflicted pain for the sake of it. It's exaggerating canon as well as established fanon that many unfamiliar with the source material that turn him into this simpering wreck of a woobie. If canon hasn't broken him yet, you better put him through the goddamn ringer if you make him a nervous wreck that only Steve can save.

It's not hard to ignore what you don't want to read. I don't understand when it's a problem, it's not like the fandom is OMG over run and flooded with it.

I've never actually been sure what the specific definition of "woobie" is, beyond "character that is my favoritist evar whom I like to watch suffer beautifully," and the fact that everyone seems to think Rodney McKay is one for reasons which totally escape me.

I'm probably one of the people who woobifies Tony, though, if one uses "wuv him and like to watch him suffer beautifully" as a yardstick.

I fled from the eating disorders fic in open fear, because I just knew that it would a) probably be awful, given that it would take near god-like levels of talent to make that scenario work well and b) be incredibly triggering.
