There should be a new Mary Sue litmus test.

Question number one: "Can she tie her own shoes?"

Why does she need to, when her magical rainbow Pegasus can do it for her?

By the general fandom standard, any female character over the age of 3 is clearly a Mary Sue. Last series, I was really worried for bb!Amelia, ngl.

How is that even a question? Of course she's a Mary Sue. < /sarcasm>

OC=MS to wide swathes of so-called fandom. I fear that the two staffers in an academic office I've created are going to be labelled as Mary Sues even though they show up for all of five paragraphs. But, maybe not. I'm not writing all about the boys in this fic - the main action follows TEH WOMENZ OH NOES!

DAMN. Tying her own shoes? Clearly she's a Mary Sue! No woman should be that awesome.

But what if she wears boots? *looks innocent*
