I don't get (and am really getting annoyed at) this notion that you're a bad feminist because you like a character who isn't a shining feminist role model better than one who is. All people have flaws, and feeling that you're "supposed" to like someone because they're less flawed than another person is just...ugh. It's like saying the character's personality doesn't matter, only how perfect and unflawed they are. Isn't feminism supposed to be about how women can be (and like) whoever the fuck they want to be?

I think the notion creates this perception that only one kind of female character is acceptable, which limits female characters and renders them down to their gender anyway. So...it annoys me. No offense to anybody. That's just how I see it.

Yes, exactly. I knew something about this obsession with being in line with perfect feminist ideology, even though human beings are flawed and obviously can't be perfect embodiments of feminist ideology no matter how hard they try, was skeeving me out in some really familiar way. Now I know why -- it's because it's almost exactly like antifeminist gender restriction/oppression, except with different criteria for acceptable female behavior.

Not familiar with the source, but isn't OP trying to say the opposite? That s/he's being a bad feminist BECAUSE s/he likes the more "badass" character better? Instead of seeing both characters as equals despite choosing different life roles?

That's how I read it.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-27 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I just got off-topic ;) Still the same general idea though.

(Anonymous) 2012-01-27 04:56 am (UTC)(link)
I think so.
