We Love the Women That Fandom Hates- Day 2

[fauxkaren]

For those of you concerned about how spoilery these metas are: today's Catelyn meta contains spoilers up through A Feast for Crows, the Cordelia meta is specifically spoilery for episode 3x06 "Billy" of Angel but generally for her whole are, and the Rose meta is spoilery through 2x01 "New Earth".

I read only half of your Catelyn portion because after the Brienne and Renly spoilers, I decided I didn't want to read any more. I am super excited to read these scenes and I love your explanation of why Catelyn thought the way that she did. I can definitely agree with you that she's not a Mean Girl. Or perhaps she is one but not the way that others imagine.

Some people just really like to latch onto anything that Cat does and criticize her for it, but in context, Cat is in no way being cruel when she observes that it's a sucky thing to be an ugly woman in that society.

Definitely not cruel. More people should hate Cersei. I'm shocked that she gets more love than Catelyn.

Cersei does some really terrible things. I mean, she tries to have Robert's bastards KILLED. But in the end, I can't hate her. I just really pity her.

I can't get over her being the reason Lady's dead. :'(
