Translation: It’s really cool that an abused and traumatized female character is finding strength and a way to take back control of her life, even if it’s in a violent and self-destructive way. BUT. BUT. I don’t appreciate it because it’s NOT what her boyfriend wants for her, and clearly she should just cut the crap out with exploring her werewolf side and the empowerment it gives her because it’s making HIM unhappy. How dare she not devote herself entirely to one person. That goddamn bitch doesn’t understand that she only exists to act as a girlfriend to Josh, not as her own individual person with goals and desires that are different from his. What a bitch.
Misogynistic fan reasoning:
1) “Nora should be fucking grateful that someone as loving as Josh wants her bitch ass.”
a) So women exist only to make men happy, and when they have separate lives of their own they should drag their ungrateful asses back to the kitchen and promptly make their men a sammich.
2) “YOU DUMB BITCH, FOLLOWING HIM AND GETTING SCRATCHED”
a) Wait, so Nora shouldn’t have been concerned about her significant other being in extreme, excrutiating pain?
b) So you’re assuming she KNEW Josh was a werewolf and that being scratched by one turns her into a werewolf too.
c) And also that she WANTED to be scratched.
d) Or totally forgetting that she was pregnant with his half-werewolf baby anyways and who knows if giving birth to it would have killed her or not.
3) “WHAT THE FUCK NORA. STOP WANTING TO ACCEPT WHO YOU ARE. IT’S MAKING JOSH SAD.”
a) So Nora isn’t her own person.
b) So what your boyfriend/husband/fiance/father/insert male figure wants you to do with your life should be the only thing you want to do with your life.
c) So she should hate and fear who she is instead of trying to come to terms with it
d) So she should be utterly helpless and depend on Josh to solve the werewolf problem.
PREACH!
