Ugh, saaaame. I feel like I still do have a lot of that baggage from seeing that attitude so often during a formative time. But the fandom that I mostly write for did the one of the main female characters kinda dirty in terms of not letting her DO much, so of course I want to let her do things when I write about her!

And thank you. 15 year old me definitely had some stuff to get through and over, haha. She tried to do her best at the time!
