My pet-peeve is the ‘guys can’t handle strong female characters’ meme. Yes, this probably rings true in some dank corners of society, but I think in this instance it’s mostly a convenient distraction from actual criticism.
Far from some dank corners of society. Personally, I know four people who openly dislike the strong female characters, as well as the strong, powerful, intelligent females in the real world. All four are degreed office professionals between the ages of 35 and 45. For them , their dislike of females being equal is the actual criticism.
