“She’s dated every character who got two second of screentime” [And it’s not hard to see why. The films don’t judge her at all for that, incidentally.]
“She’s someone for him to save.” [She does… under her own steam.]
“Someone to look at him in awe.” [Nope, that’s plain jealousy. Which she also isn’t judged for by the films or characters therein.]
“She’s a tool.”
“Someone for him to save”
“She’s not a character.” [Yes she is. She’s insecure, she covers it up with a party-girl attitude, she’s ambitious, jealous, loving, she demands respect from people – my god, what more must she do?!]
“Mary Jane sucks!…she is a TOOL. She is something for Peter Parker to chase. She’s someone for him to save, someone to always be concerned about him, someone to look at him in awe, someone to always give him pity….She’s not a character, she’s a character’s girlfriend!…Also the fact that she’s dated every male character who got two seconds of screentime in these films!…”

Yeah, as much as I like NC, he kinda dropped the ball on that one. Hell, he didn’t even mention her comic counterpart, who would be much “better” in his eyes. (Now I wish Linkara was involved in that episode…)
[…] I’m only vaguely familiar with that guy, but he was the one who did this slut-shamy nonsense about what a terrible character Mary Jane was, wasn’t […]

thoughts on Doug Walker's opinions on Spider-Man? I haven' seen his Homecoming video but his Old vs New rather pissed me off, esp. with how he accentuated the negative out of it -ladyliliana | Overly Devoted Archivist
