Furiosa is flat and two-dimensional, and the fact that she's the example for what counts as a "well-written female character" only proves to me that people are full of shit when they say that's what they're looking for.

But why? She's like a thousand male protagonists out there who are Grim, Gruff, Determined, and Stoic, and men absolutely adore and idolize these guys without some foot-stomping scold telling them they're not well-written enough to be enjoyable. They're fun. They're heroic. They get to have suffering that makes them relatable but never crosses the line into exploitative but also heroic scenes of triumph.

Why are male characters who are exactly like Furiosa the standard heroic figure without a whisper of complaint while Furiosa is so unbearable that the mere existence of people who enjoy her proves that everyone who says they want characters like that are misogynistic liars?

Those male characters suck, too. The solution to the problem of female characters being shittily written isn't to take shittily written male tropes and apply them to women.

[ariakas]

So your position is that nobody, male or female, actually wants well-written characters if these are the kinds of characters they enjoy?

We'll, at least you're consistent.

I absolutely think that.

I think people don't want good writing in general. They want popcorn, which would be fine, if they didn't go around declaring that the popcorn is actually filet mignon.

Wow. Thanks for telling me what it is I want. I'm so glad you know my mind, and the minds of everyone in the WORLD, better than me!
