"It's not enough to be a POC or other minority to catch people's attention."

Um. What? I don't think anyone's claiming that, and I find that statement a little offensive.

Moving on, though. Canon Stiles is a great character worthy of tons of fanfic, except there is next to no fanfiction that is true to Stiles' character. In fact, it seems to me like most people write Stiles a lot like Scott actually is, except incredibly "uke-fied", as someone else very astutely pointed out.

Regarding your comment on people not being able to get a handle on Scott's personality and writing him OOC, I call bullshit and laziness. I'm sorry.

As far as other characters who only have two lines go, one could argue that Derek doesn't do much more than stand around and look menacing too. Also, I call bullshit again, because there have been numerous incidents of people writing a bajillion fics with characters that appeared once, or were even just mentioned (Greenberg hasn't appeared on screen in Teen Wolf and yet he gets talked about more than any ship involving Scott, for example). People fangirl over Boyd and Erica and Isaac and Deaton and Danny, they say over and over how awesome those people are, they post gifs and quotes, and yet they never write fic about them. There's obviously something else like lack of enthusiasm about the characters going on.

And in any case, no one is blaming people for writing about Stiles, like I said, he IS an intriguing character. What people are complaining about is, one, that he is the only fucking person people write about, and two, that Stiles fans distort his character, ignore his flaws and mistakes, present him as a "perfect precious angel" as OP said, demand to see more of him even though he has more than his fair share of screen time, and spew venom about every other character on top of that.

And you know what? I am sick and tired of people telling me (and everyone who shares my opinion) that we are exaggerating, that we are seeing things that aren't there, that we need to "chill", that there ALWAYS is some reason completely unrelated to sexism and racism that makes people not write about women and POC. It happens again and again and again, show after movie after book, and there is ALWAYS an excuse. So, whatever. You can keep saying it to convince yourself, but I'll never be convinced that it's all just one big coincidence again.

Yeah, welp, not much point in discussing this with you, but I did read what you wrote.

Edited for clarity.
