I’ve never given a damn if the lead role was female or not. It’s whether or not it flows well with coherent story telling.

Seriously, no one was really hating on Rey when TFA was released. Like it makes sense to have the protagonist of the Sequel Trilogy be a girl because it’s an easy way to mix things up and power in the Force really shouldn’t be based on sex, unlike what these retards think:

I used to think that some of the ideologues on the Left truly weren’t grasping this nuance, and in some measure of good faith actually thought the fans really WERE just a bunch of misogynist assholes and that we were all just yelling past each other.

I believe now with all my heart that they fully DO know exactly what we are saying, and they just continue to pretend that they don’t so that they have the strawman of racist, sexist assholes being to blame for all of society’s ills (the least of which, I’m sure they believe, are the dismal box office showings of their garbage propaganda).

This. They need to go back to writing coherent stories. That’s about it.

Rey didn’t start off bad. It was when they made her an indestructible Mary Sue that things went off the rails.
