That's what bugs me about a lot of Tumblr-SJW critique of female characters: it's so reductionist and limiting, and spends so much time hating on "problematic" female characters so viciously, that it really comes off as more misogynist than the shows. There are a seemingly endless number of reasons to hate pretty much every female character ever, and man, do those kinds of "feminists" do it with great relish and joy.

Nonny, I think I luuuuurve you.

(And now I have 80's metal in my head.

[(Anonymous)]

But the hate is clearly directed at the male writer in this case? Sure, the characters are being criticized (for the way they are written) but the conclusion being drawn is that "Moffat sucks!"

[(Anonymous)]

Be fair now! No need for personal attacks. Moffat sucks as a writer.

[(Anonymous)]

LOL, but do we really know him as anything else?

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, but it's often not expressed that way. (And honestly, it's tedious. We know. But if you still can't find anything to like about these women, then why even watch the shows? All of these characters, flawed as they are, still have things about them that I find interesting and relatable.) And these are far from the only female characters that get dumped on in the most appalling terms.

But if you still can't find anything to like about these women, then why even watch the shows?

You know Irene was only in one episode, right? Why would I stop watching Sherlock because of a one-off character?

[(Anonymous)]

If you don't like any of the female characters, why watch? I've heard lots of nastiness about Molly, Sally, and even Mrs. Hudson! (Fortunately, everyone I follow seems to really like Mary so far, but I'm sure somewhere in some dark corner of Tumblr, she's getting dumped on.)

[(Anonymous)]

...Tumblr has already decided Mary is going to die in a horrible way in the finale, so they're already in fake mourning for a fictional character that isn't even dead yet LOL.

[(Anonymous)]

To be fair, most of the women in the show have very minor roles. I'm a bit disappointed with how they're treating Molly lately, but I don't see enough of her for it to ruin the entire show.
