I thought I read something about him actually being misogynistic? I could be wrong...

He is. I mean, he's not actively hating on women, but basically, women are just another species in his world that he's okay with not knowing.

I like him generally, but I think you're far from alone in your dislike.

I'm with you, OP. I used to really like him but he let it all go to his head. Rather than "thank you," you get the feeling he just says "Yes" when someone compliments him - and he's so closed-minded for someone so intelligent. Plus the misogyny. He's just too full of himself for me.

Is this a repeat? I feel like this was done already. Either that or its a secret that is worded almost the same. I don't know if I'm remembering correctly, it's a few weeks ago since the last one.

Anyway OP, I know you're far from alone. My mum can't stand him for example.

I feel like we've had at least four other secrets like this over the past six months or so. I could also very well be wrong, but you are far from alone in this opinion.

Personally, I know next to nothing about him so...no opinion. If he is...that's a serious shame.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-17 04:43 am (UTC)(link)
OT but I really like your icon.

I dig the dude, although I prefer the days where he was paired up with Hugh Laurie.

But yeah, you're definitely not alone in your dislike of the man. There have been similar secrets in the past with a whole slew of 'me too, anon' posts.

I've only followed F!S for a few days now, didn't know this kind of secret was common. Guess I'm glad I'm not the only one with my impression of Fry though... I'm not active in any kind of fandom but my friends tend to praise him on tumblr constantly.

Re: OP here

[personal profile] unicornherds 2012-07-15 09:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, it's not like an every day occurrence, but there have been a few other secrets along this vein. So you're definitely not alone!

Also, welcome to the madhouse that is F!S.

Great actor, kinda a crappy person. Solution: don't be his BFF and enjoy his movies.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 10:09 am (UTC)(link)
Did you see his episode of "Who Do you Think You Are?" It was incredibly moving, his family lost a lot of people in the concentration camps. I know he's not perfect, but he has his own issues and I think he's done pretty well, considering some of his baggage and his bipolar. I think calling him a crappy person is a bit extreme.

kinda agree

[personal profile] ooh_mrdarcy 2012-07-15 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
I pretty much worship and have the hugest crush on him, but you're not entirely wrong.

He's pretty humble, but he's also kinda misogynistic, so you got half of it right?

Re: kinda agree

[identity profile] ivymutant.livejournal.com 2012-07-15 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Pretty humble? Depends where you see him. In QI, he acts like an unrepentant smug git, and in his first autobiography comes off fairly smug too (especially when talking about test results from school etc).

Who is this? (missed all the other secrets about him on f!s, I guess...)

Stephen Fry

(Anonymous) 2012-07-15 10:27 pm (UTC)(link)
I like him, but his 'I'm always right' attitude can get grating, especially on topics he has a conservative bias towards and no firsthand experience in. He's a man, but he somehow thinks he is the unquestionable voice on female sexuality (or, in his case, our lack of it in comparison to men)? Please.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
i always thought that was sour grapes because Hugh's a sex symbol now and he isn't.

I do like him in fact, kit's just lately he's starting to sound more and mor like an old fart raging at the word to me.

(Anonymous) 2012-07-15 10:45 pm (UTC)(link)
not you again. was the last discussion on this not enough for you?

(Anonymous) 2012-07-16 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
I pretty much agree. I mean, he can be funny and interesting and I love watching old A Bit of Fry and Laurie episodes. But, on the whole he's not someone I would want to know.

I'm a feminist, but I really think that sometimes people throw around the word "misogyny" a little too easily. Does anyone seriously think he hates women? I haven't seen any reason to yet, but I'm willing to be convinced.

I've sat in front of him at the theatre a few times (I don't know how I manage to keep running into him) and he always seemed really nice...
