If you would have said something, I would call you cruel for taking me away from my sweet, sweet denial land.
This is what I was trying to avoid.
I used to mostly ignore feminist issues in fandom too, but recently it's becoming really obvious in Heroes. All the women seem to be weak and unstable or a bitch with or without a heart of gold. Or, you know, they're just poorly developed bit characters. I love all the men, obviously, but I wish it wasn't always so male-driven. It's a problem with a lot of shows though, people can't seem to write female characters and stick with tired clichés.

Uh, how do I get down from this soapbox?
