That's mainly why I was so uncomfortable with some of the Karen "hate" that was happening here on earlier posts. The hate directed at a lot of the female characters in the Sherlock fandom is unreal, and I eventually left the fandom because I just could not stand the divisiveness and nastiness over Mary any longer. I'm so glad that, for the most part, the lady characters in this fandom aren't being trashed.
I've seen a couple posts in the other prompts on here that were passive-aggressive counterprompting (thank you, for giving a term to that phenomenon), but that doesn't happen much anymore. Thankfully, we have an excellent mod who allows discourse but steps in when it devolves into wank.
