Re: Secret #1: Manic Pixie Girl
(Anonymous) 2014-02-11 04:47 am (UTC)(link)And I can completely understand and get behind all of what you've described. The problem is that I haven't actually seen that. I've just seen certain characters get saddled with the label without it making any sense to me.
Perhaps it's a function of your last sentence, in the sense that there are some who apply it to any quirky, smart female character. They are doing so because they have been exposed to the negative archetype, but they're painting with too broad a brush.
