Oh Supernatural fandom,
Women are not going to ruin your show. Stop being mysoginistic pricks. Not that most of you objecting actually have dicks. Surprisingly, you have vaginas. Just goes to show that women really are the reason we can't have female characters.
I suppose the good news is that most of the people on this post are like, "uh....you're dumb."
But then again, there's this post.
Spoilers for season three in both links.
Of course, the best bit is someone asserting that Supernatural is the last bastion of male-oriented television. Yup. There are no other shows out there trying to corner the market on the 18-34 male demographic.

And it's just the idea that's freaking them out, they haven't actually seen the episodes with them in. Is this correct?

Vaginas are a bad thing.

(Anonymous) 2007-06-14 01:08 pm (UTC)(link)As I've said before, they can't allow women to be on the show because either that means
A) Their self-insert fic won't work anymore
B) It gets in the way of, shudder, Wincest
C) They are a little possessive of Jensen/Jared/Both.
Silly people.

In addition, dude, this show needs more hot women hunters. For serious.

I totally agree with timjr on this one. It's just... wow. O_o

I was looking for Supernatural femslash last night. I think Medie and I have written at least half of the stuff that's out there. Well. That doesn't involve turning the brothers into girls and having them sleep with each other. (Not that I've seen it. But in Supernatural fandom? I'm sure it's out there.)

One more reason for me to stay the hell away from that show.

Or were you saying you'd stay away because there were female characters being introduced?

I like watching Supernatural for the first three reasons. But you can't really get particularly interested by the latest week's passing guest star, regardless of how attractive she might be physically. It's like a succession of cheap, one-night stands -- and I know I wouldn't mind having a female character or two continue to stick around over the course of a season. Jo, whenever she showed up, was a welcome diversion.

Bring on the women!
Anything to make this show open to a wider audience, and shake up the dynamics! There's a whole world out there, people, let's have some more characters!
I say people start a campaign to write in and SUPPORT this decision, to counteract the others.

Women = BAD, but incest is A-OKAY! Good to know.

Like I told Lyss, you know tSupernatural fandpm has to be crazy, because I can find het fic in an anime series that's about 1,000 times gayer than Supernatural ever could hope to be.

I'm not interested in monster of the week stuff and it lacked (interesting) women characters ;P.

I guess that person completely missed that the show is actually advertised to WOMEN. It's chock full of those hideous "not so fresh" ads, not cars and beer and AXE. Advertisers know who watches, and it's not a majority of guys.
And of course the Mary Sue thing came up again, because heaven forbid the producers might want to cast a hot chick on a tv show.
At least most of the comments were smack-downs, that made me feel better.

Might make me watch an episode with a female on it :)
