am i wrong for this

i don't really like media manhwa/manga/shows etc. with a female lead. i just don't like the way that females are portrayed in media. especially if it happens to be romance and the relationship with the ml.
idk i love real life women (this sound incel af lmao) and have good relationships irl this just pertains to online media. maybe i just had a bad impression, but idk. this can't just be me? i just can't find it in me to read or watch anything if a female is the mc. maybe give me something good idk if i'll read it though RIP

Well not really? Alot of female in medias are genuinely so dumb down, they're either Mary sue or stupid sexualised girls. Anime is a good example for this whereas the girls will just literally change infront of a man or show off their undies. I can't blame you for not wanting a female lead specially when most portrayals are like this, it's like th...... 1 reply

Man other people have said it better, but literally? Skill issue. I usually hate reading stories with male mc’s bc they are all just naruto. That sounds really dumb, but naruto was a bullied character that was super powerful. A lot of male oriented stories have a bullied boy who either is or becomes super powerful. And females are always portray...... 1 reply

It's coz most of the time, it's either they write the FL as a damsel in distress or a Mary sue, which are so fricking frustrating and annoying to read. I love me some strong, complex FL in any genre but it's quite rare to find one that really hits my spot-- an FL that was written not as an indestructible all-purpose savior, nor a basic eye candy th...... reply

Female here, and I completely understand. Usually I don’t like female characters. I feel like there is a fine line between strong female and b*tch, and overwhelmingly authors don’t know how to handle that subtlety. Then there’s is the other end of the spectrum where they make the female either super saintly or super stupid/clumsy. I tend to...... 2 reply

I don't think you're "wrong" for it since it's pretty well-known that female characters often have less thought put into them, resulting in people being biased against them and ending up disliking them. I don't feel this way myself since I can enjoy pretty much anything, even if others consider it "bad" (general statement here), so maybe my recs a...... 1 reply

I have this problem too. Recently the amazing animes called frieren and kusuriya no hitorigoto came out and I was really hyped to watch it but lost interest pretty quickly. I am very picky with female characters. I love women irl but in fiction I just can't seem to like them enough (except a few). My problem with it is mostly that the authors make ...... reply
