I know everybody's slice of fandom is different but I've never been in one where people were criticized for hating a female character for this reason. Also, I like Inara but I'd always had the impression she was a pretty unpopular character.

Really? I've seen it a lot. Especially in general forum type places.

I take it you're not part of the Supernatural fandom then? Everytime anyone dares to dislike Bela, Jo, Lisa, Amelia, etc, there's a chorus of "UR JUS JELLUS!11!"

[likeadeuce]

Yeah, the SPN fandom is totally famous for loving and defending women.

[(Anonymous)]

I really hope you are being sarcastic.

[likeadeuce]

There are definitely levels of irony here. I have sort of lost track of which side I was on.

[(Anonymous)]

There is? I haven't seen that. I have seen some people calling out others for disliking female SPN characters for the same things that they like the male characters for. I have seen some people calling others out for tagging their hate. I have not seen this. In fact, back in the early seasons, the vitriol against the female characters was omnipresent*. And it sucked as someone who was a fan of those characters.

* except against Ellen. Apparently she was okay. Perhaps for being older, so she was unlikely to break up a ship?

DA

I think once all the women got killed off (and were therefore no longer a threat to Dean / Sam / Castiel's epic manlove) the pendulum swung the other way and suddenly all these fans of Jo/Bela/Ruby etc came out of the woodwork. Often these fans were the same people who had been castigating them before they died.
