Normally,I don't like airing my opinions because it often gets me into trouble.After reading a rant about Mary Sue characters on the LiveJournal,I was influenced by the community tf-afts where they attacked an artist who has a TF OC that they deemed a Mary Sue.She made no qualms about admitting that her character fit the criteria of a Mary Sue.The artist(who shall remain nameless)is actually quite talented,despite what was said about them on this LJ community and I really like her Small Problems story(too bad she never finished it).Unfortunately,what I said angered a lot of people who are admirers of hers. I ended up getting chewed out by people because I accused her of being something she isn't.There are certain fandoms that I don't tolerate yaoi in,because the pairings don't make sense to me,like the pairing of Prowl/Jazz and Hound/Mirage as well as in some of the anime that I grew up with.Plus I have a hard time tolerating yaoi pairings in the Lord of the Rings because I know that Professor Tolkien must be rolling over in his grave because that isn't what he intended to be done with his male characters.So I have decided to keep my opinions to myself unless someone asks me.
