Sherlock continues to be a beautifully shot, cleverly directed, generally reasonably well written TV show where no-one bears even the slightest resemblance to the characters I love

I want to kick Irene Adler in the face I hate ASiB so much I’m
This is not an okay way to talk about female characters. While working toward a society that is more respectful toward women and less violent, we can’t continue to talk about women this way, even fictional women.
You seem really young, so I’m trying not to be too harsh about this, but really think about this post and consider the implications of it.
If you’re not in this fandom, don’t discuss the characters. Irene Adler sexually assaulted Sherlock Holmes. Gave him a date rape drug. Hit him. Got on him. Naked. We are allowed to find those actions disgusting. Because they are. What if Irene was a man, and Sherlock was a woman? How horrible do those same actions seem now?
Spill that TEA👏👏👏👏☕️☕️☕️
Oh for fuck’s sake. That’s precisely the point.
Irene Adler as a woman drugs Sherlock Holmes, hits him, and the fandom thinks it’s disgusting and threatens violence on her.
Sherlock Holmes as a man drugs John Watson, hits him, and emotionally manipulates him into thinking he’s going to die to force him to forgiveness and the fandom adores him and offer excuses and rationalizations and explains it all away as Twu Wuv.
Double standard much?
