Understandable. She was a terrible, bratty little sister.

As I am, myself, a bratty little sister, she was my favorite character.

I think the whole point of her character was to be annoying.

You're probably not alone, OP.

(Anonymous) 2013-09-18 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
She was a spoiled, whiny brat. What's not to hate?

(Anonymous) 2013-09-18 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
This has got to be one of those most popular opinions I've ever seen posted as a secret.

A HUGE amount of people hate her (including me and I myself am a bratty little sister). Why do you think they show "Arthur's Big Hit" so rarely? Because instead of getting the message "hitting is wrong" from it, most viewers got "he should have hit her harder than that as long as he was at it".

Not the OP

Uuuugh, that episode STILL PISSES ME OFF. To this day, just thinking about it!

I could kind of agree with the intended moral, except not only did he spend a lot of time working on it and told her not to touch it, which she should have respected, but after she broke it she taunted him about it. I'm normally very much for nonviolence, but I was cheering him on, too.

I always disliked Max. I mean, come on dude, let your sister have some time alone. Also, WHERE ARE YOUR PARENTS???

And on the flip side, I have this raging hatred for Ruby.
Possibly because I'm the younger sibling.

True, but Ruby had her share of being a "bossy big sister" and dragging poor Max along even when he just wanted to play with some new cool toy.


And I agree about the parents. Talk about your free-range kids...

If you feel at all guilty about this opinion, then relinquish said guilt immediately. No jury, real or imaginary, will convict you for hating Dora Winifred Read.

The way to mislike her less:

Watch some Caillou, and learn what truly horrible brats are like. >_>

I don't like Quinn from Daria. Does that count?

(Anonymous) 2013-09-19 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
She's definitely an annoying little shithead, but that's the whole point of the character, and she's actually really funny (imo) in some of the later episodes (while still be a horrible shithead).

(Anonymous) 2013-09-19 12:28 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, I hated her. Arthur was the best!

(Anonymous) 2013-09-19 12:39 am (UTC)(link)
Kids aren't exempt from hatred. What's her age got to do with anything? If she's being a dick, she's being a dick, no matter whether she's a kid or not.

funny story: I've been watching the show since I was a little baby (it first started when I was almost 1 IIRC) and I have an older sister whom I've never gotten along with. according to several anecdotes about past me, DW was pretty much my idol and I had a little plushie of her and acted like an asshole all the time, mimicking her behaviour. present me is split between amusement and embarrassment about this.

I remember identifying with matt from lizzie mcguire too.

(Anonymous) 2013-09-19 01:33 am (UTC)(link)
Haha, me too. I'm an older sibling who didn't get as much attention as my needier (and brattier) younger one, so I always sympathized when Arthur lost his patience with her.

I almost always hated the younger siblings. As a general rule I don't like any kids, so I'm sure my feelings haven't changed.

Secret 2 - Arthur

[personal profile] transcriptanon 2013-09-19 02:42 am (UTC)(link)
[Picture is Dora Winifred "D.W." Read from the cartoon "Arthur". She is an aardvark and the main character's little sister. She is a child with light brown fur and medium-length brown hair. She is wearing a long-sleeved white shirt and a pink jumper/overall.]

I hated her when I used to watch this show and I still do.

Secret because: She's a little kid, a little animated kid.
