Manhwa readers hate imperfect victims

I'm going to use the remarried empress as an example (yes i know this story as been talked to hell and back) even the people who acknowledge Rashta as a victim spare her little sympathy for one reason or another, oh she's manipulative and she's naive at the same time, she's not a good mother despite the fact she had little chance to even try to be one and she's greedy because she wanted something above her status and to that i say! female characters shouldn’t have to be a “smart kind pretty queen girlboss” to be liked, and to be acknowledged as victims. let female characters have flaws, let female characters be mean and vicious or have a terrible personality, let them show weakness and cry over their trauma and let them make excuses for their actions even if they're bad, because that's how a human mind works. LET FEMALE CHARACTERS HAVE REALISTIC REACTIONS TO THE SYSTEMS THEY'RE A VICTIM OF. Send tweet
