Being a Writer is Rough
Do people even know what a Mary-Sue is anymore? Or where it comes from? And what exactly it entails? Because all I see is it getting thrown around to attack any female character someone doesn't like. And every definition I see these days applies to basically any female character with any talents, any interesting/cool/horrible backstory, any female character who overcomes obstacles to be a powerful female in the end, any original female character in a fanfic...so basically, any female character in existence. Period. Except for extraordinarily weird ones that aren't really important to the main story or main characters at all.
Annoying.
Seriously. How are people supposed to even write female characters anymore without them getting labelled as a Mary-Sue and make her part of the central story? Because even canon characters can now be Mary-Sues, I guess.
