We Love The Women Fandom Hates

[plasmoids]

Hey, I just wanted to give you guys a heads-up about this. There's a new comm called womenlovefest about giving love to female characters fandom hates. They're currently taking submissions of the different ways fandom shows their love, and I know a lot of you are passionate about certain characters, and how female characters are treated in fandom in general, so I think it would be right up a lot of your allies. I'm tempted to submit some things myself (People hate Jessica Jones?! Kate Beckett?! Luna Lovegood?! Say WHAT?!), but due to my usual procrastinating tendencies, I might not manage. Thankfully, though, it's an on-going thing, so maybe if it's still going by next year, I'll get something submitted.

But yeah, everyone go take a look! I encourage those of you who feel strongly about stuff like this to think about submitting something. I bet you have awesome things to say. :)

Thanks for letting us know, this seems like the kind of fest I could really get into. Also, I want to punch the people who apparently hate these awesome ladies. If only more of my fandoms were on the list. ;o;

WHOA WHOA WHOA. I am not a Harry Potter fan, but there are people that dislike Luna Lovegood?

She's like the only thing I like about it.

SO CONFUSED. HOW IN THE WORLD.

I'm scrolling down the list and I can't believe it's even possible to hate some of these people. Chuck? Inara?
Yuna?

It makes me sad when people hate on Rarity, because she's my favourite!! Why is there so much hate, Michelle? Why? ;_;
