Re: Irritating misinterpretations of characters in fandom and/or adaptations

Oh, yes. Every version of Beauty and the Beast ever told is actually a deeply troubling romanticizing of Stockholm Syndrome, don'tch'a know. Which ignores all the versions where Beauty goes to the Beast of her own free will, against her family's wishes, to preserve her father's life and her own honor, and all the versions where the Beast is awestruck by her strength and her bravery and changes his behavior to please her, while his attempts to order her around are met with 'not compromising my principles for you, thanks much.' Because obviously Beauties are wilting flowers who crumple like wet tissue paper at the least provocation and never view their Beasts as an adventure in themselves.
--someone who currently ships Rumpelstiltskin and Belle on Once Upon a Time, is anxiously awaiting the release of that new French BatB movie next month so she can compare it to the Cocteau film, and who will probably always ship BatB couples given the opportunity.
