Original post

fandom will see a female character with the most interesting backstory and inner turmoil in the entire media and be like “...anyways. where’s the closest man we can pretend has the exact problems she has”

Responses

the flipside: fandom will see a female character who has unique admirable qualities and is trying to better herself in spite of her flaws and everything she's been through and still be like "...where's the closest man who i can pretend has all these positive traits instead"

Thinking of Fandom interactions I'm sadly convinced some of the ripping off is unintentional and they're just accidentally recreating female characters Backstory
For it to be intentional theyd have to read female characters enough to know their backstories

Also applies to a man of color vs a white man.
