Recently on fandom wank, there's been a bit of a to-do about the author of a certain fanfic being well, a jerkfaced con artist. He also has a sparrow for a son. A lot of people liked the fic, and I saw it recced on TVtropes once and tried to read it, but the first chapter was just so OOC and full of genderfail that I couldn't get past it. Which is

If any student had been killed, I seriously think McGonagall would be dead too- because there's no way she wouldn't have confronted the Death Eaters over that. She didn't challenge the Death Eaters during the seventh year because she knew she had to be around to protect the students and dying in battle when wouldn't help that- but once the DE's started killing her students, all bets were off. You saw her reaction in DH when Amycus suggesting sacrificing students. She was appalled, and she was going to fight him right there. She would die to protect a student from death.

So yeah, inadvertantly making aNOTHER female character a weakling in this fic. Go Author!

If there was a girl I kinda liked, and she choked me untill I lost conciousness, if and when I recovered, I probably wouldn't like her anymore. And I'd press charges. And file a restraining order (just in case the charges were somehow dropped).

That's what any sane person would do. You sure as hell wouldn't marry someone like that. I mean, if the author had reversed the genders, everyone would be up in arms.

The wank is actually best summarized on the fandom wank wiki:

Basically, a former conartist from LotR fandom, who has claimed to channel several people's spirits and went through several identities, is really the author of this epic, and he's still going on about how he hates is wife because she walked out on him with their son...who is a sparrow they found on the street. But he doesn't hold anything against womankind for this! Mostly! Also, he's claiming all the stuff he did before was because of his evil twin sister. While soliciting donations for his convention and crappy photoshop art.
