Wikipedia editors can decide what sources to choose and how to interpolate that information, m’kay?And please don’t “well, actually” me again and say how technically it isn’t allowed under the rules. The thing is, when a majority of people in a group are men, the group is going to collectively hold masculine viewpoints. And those viewpoints can be wrong and toxic.
Take your misandry somewhere else. It doesn’t make for a valid argument.
Ahahahaha. Nice.
My new user title here would be “Chief Misandrist.”
Sure, there’s weight given to people with especially large and coveted megaphones. But there’s still some weight given to those who have less social standing. Otherwise, slang terms wouldn’t make it into the dictionary.
Which is why it’s considered slang to begin with, because it hasn’t reached the status of a generally accepted word.
But it’s still in the dictionary.
Since you seem to have lost interest in reasonable discussion (did you ever have it in the first place), here’s the main points in nice, bullet-point form:
- The term “Mary Sue” is used in a misogynist way, regardless of how it was originally intended
- The term is a product of the sexist society that we live in
- Try not to say Mary Sue. It’s an offensive term.
- Wikipedia is a great source for information, but its internal process has many problems
- I am not a misandrist.
Now, good day, sir. I will not be engaging with you further.
