SPN fandom is horrible about doing this to female characters that are or might be linked romantically with the boys. It makes me sad because there have been some awesome ladies on the show. Bela, Ruby, Meg, Jo, Anna, Lisa (I know a lot of people will argue about Lisa but idgaf, COME AT ME BRO)... the list goes on. Hate for Bela, Ruby, and Meg always really bugs me, since most of the stuff that people hate with those characters is things that they LOVE in characters like Crowley, Lucifer, and Gabriel. And I love those characters, don't get me wrong, but a lot of the shitty things they've done have gotten brushed aside a lot more easily than stuff that a lot of the women on the show have done.

The initial bashing of Bela and Ruby when their characters were announced was because people were convinced they were going to be romantic interests. At least from what I remember reading.

I totally agree. Like one of the things Bela was constantly bashed for was for putting one over on the guys. A) She's a thief who has trained as such for 10 years. B) She did not actually always put one over on the guys. I mean, in the rabbit's foot episode alone she did initially steal it, but the boys managed to trick her at the end. Yet, somehow, people love that Gabriel is always doing things to the boys. Like with the whole "Mystery Spot" episode. Among other things. (FTR, I both loved Bela and "Mystery Spot.")
