"Happens loads and loads of times in Fan Fiction, where, because Most Fanfic Writers Are Girls, the usual genders are most frequently seen flipped, with the female getting double-teamed by the two hot male characters the fic writer can't choose between. * Or sometimes, between three hot male characters in the "female" position. "
I didn't delete it because I don't have an account and I wouldn't be sure what the etiquette on editing Trope pages is if I did, but... *groaaaan*
"That site's becoming a buttload of whiny entitled fans lately. More so than usual." It's good if you stay off the subjective pages, but once you get onto the fandom-related tropes... D|
"I just had an argument with someone on the FE Awakening YMMV page who was all butthurt about no male Manaketes and Earth Dragons being always evil and he kept deleting my points about how females are more hated than males. I finally had to let him add his shit back to the page so he'd stop deleting mine." No male Manaketes? Nonsense! I killed one in Sacred Stones, and FE6 had you beat one up too! :P
(Seriously, what a weird thing to complain about. I'd like male Manaketes just because I want to build a Manakete army I like diversity, but it's not as if it's ~sexism~. There are NPC male Manaketes - the series just giggles too much over the cute-little-girl -> OMG WTF DRAGON dichotomy to have them take up the 50-use GameBreaker slot.
As for the Earth Dragons - one could carp just as much about Fire Dragons being treated as uniformly antagonistic in Elibe. :P Or about "Dark" Dragons being treated as evil in most media! C'mon, whiny fan iz whiny...)
