Dear SPN fandom,
Quit. It. (Link contains spoilers for the season finale)
I happen to think that both sides have valid points. What is made of grand amounts of FAIL is that none of you seem to have the maturity to sit down and have a civil debate/forum about it rather than hurl invectives at each other in this fashion. Just because the other person has a different opinion than yours does not mean she is a party poopin', Show-hatin', misogynistic bitch who should be wanked out of fandom.
I am having far too much fun with the phrase "misogynistic bitch". Hehe. Is that an oxymoron or just hypocritical?
Wank aside though, the argument is extremely interesting. It covers the areas of fan culture, anthropology and mass media. A really juicy research topic completely wasted on a spate of what essentially boils down to "don't you dare tell me to shut up, bitch!" posts. This is the case with many wanks, I have noticed. The last wank, centred around![[personal profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)
ficwriter1966 was inflammatory, but she did raise a couple of points I wanted to explore. Unfortunately, I discovered the wank a month too late.
Just try to be civilized, at least? As far as I can see, nobody who has posted anything involving this wank so far can be in a remotely civil light. What do people hope to acheive by, "I don't give a fuck what you people think" posts, anyway? I agreed with many of the points bothesorlehcarand sazzlettemade, but found their manner of putting them across extremely repellent.
And for God's sake, stop bandying about words like "misogyny" and "sexism" so carelessly. Those are extremely inflammatory accusations you are making.
P.S: According to puipui, SPN fen are all pretty damn fucked up for liking such a misogynistic show. We quail before your feminist hellfire! Here's a hint: watch the fucking show!
P.S2: This wank, it is not even remotely funny. It's heartbreaking.
