While I think it's a bit crappy to generalize (there are certain fans within the SPN fandom who ADORE these women and are perfectly happy to express that adoration. Or there were back when I was active in the fandom) I can mostly agree with this. If Cas had been a woman, chances are she would've gotten plenty of hatred from a good chunk of the vocal fans and I highly doubt she would have lasted more than a season or become anywhere near as a popular as male!Cas did. Also I doubt the actress playing her would have developed the following Mischa did.

There were a handful of female characters the majority of fans seemed okay with. Ellen, Mary, Jess, and Felicia Day's Charlie all seem to be pretty acceptable to the fandom majority. That being said, none of these women were seen as romantic prospects for the boys. Mary because she was their mother and Ellen because she was seen as a mother-figure. Jess was dead and Felicia's character was gay. Make of that what you will

But there were fans within the SPN fandom who loved or at least tolerated most of the recurring female characters. Some of them were even vocal about their love for these girls. But those fans were the minority and the majority of the VOCAL fans seemed to dislike if not loathe many of the female characters. So I agree that a fem!Cas would not have fared much better than any of the other girls and Dean/fem!Cas would be nowhere near as popular as Dean/Cas.

Oh, so there was finally a recurring gay female character? I've been thinking for years that if the writers wanted a young female character on the side of good to last much longer, they should just make her a lesbian and the fans would leave her be. How long did Charlie make it for?

She was only in one episode, but they didn't kill her, at least. I don't know how long it's been since you've watched, but basically, she did some stuff that pissed off the big bad from this past season and she had to go on the run so she wouldn't get killed.

Oh, and I should've said, I'm not the person you responded to, but I do agree with them for the most part.

[darkmanifest]

Oh, well, damn, not what I was hoping for. But yeah, at least she isn't dead, so that's something.

I stopped watching Supernatural regularly around season four but I happened to see part of the episode with her while my sister was watching and literally stood in the doorway for about twenty minutes because I liked her so much. I was so relieved when she got to survive! She was such a cool character, so real and funny. If she comes back for another episode I'm def. watching!
