Though I understand that to hear the unfavorable opinion about something you like may be unpleasant, you may remember that opinion is a very subjective thing. It based on the perception which is subjective too. No one can blame people for having a perception different from their own because then we should assume that everybody who doesn’t share our opinion or perception is “blind, shallow or plain jealous”.

Which is not true, because people are different, they like different things, they have different favorites in the TV shows, they like and relate to the different angles of representing the story. There is no right or wrong here, there are only polite people who can describe his opinion using common courtesy and those who can’t.

Actually, all seven arguments of the post above may be flipped the other way easily and many people will agree with them, because those arguments are very subjective one way or another. The trick is that the subjective opinion never can be used as a measurement for living people. We are too different for this.

I admit, there are people who do not possess the common courtesy and whose arguments and opinions are very harsh and unfavorable. But why low ourselves to their level?

At the same time there are people who honestly don’t like Gwen as a character because they have different life experience and different focus of interest in the series. For them all those points from above are valid. But that doesn’t make them fools, haters or bad people in any way.

Frankly, I’m surprised to see an article like this on Wikia which I assumed was more like common ground for all kinds of fans, because it implies that there is a right and wrong way to see things and those who are not on the “right” side and don’t see Gwen in certain “right” light should be considered haters and jealous fools.

How is the argument “Those who dislike Gwen and don’t perceive her as I do are judgmental fools” different from what you argue against? Not to mention it may be easily flipped the other way. At least those who dislike Gwen and her portraying in the series base their opinion on their perception of the TV character who is not alive and very much fictional and can’t be hurt by harsh words and labels. Which can’t be said about those who judge others for having that opinion.
