[Lost rant] I think I know why I hate that they hate her

[escritoireazul]

I think I know why the Ana-Lucia hate bothers me so much. (Well, beyond the stupid name calling. COME ON PEOPLE! BEING A TRANSEXUAL IS NOT AN INSULT!)

They hate her because they say she is needlessly cruel.

Okay.

Even before tonight, and the hints that the far-side-of-the-island survivors have dealt with the Others a whole lot more than the original set, I don't think what she did was needlessly cruel. However, even if it was, when the guys are cruel, that's hot. Sayid tortures Sawyer? That's hot. Jack and Sawyer fight? That's hot.

Ana-Lucia beats up Sawyer? Ohmigawd she's such a cruel bitch!!11!!1

Now it definitely looks like they've had to deal with the Others, her actions make even more sense. THE PEOPLE ARE DYING. And not just one guy no one can even remember his name (and poor Boone, but that's not quite the same. Traumatic and horrible, but not someone outside attacking). If I was Ana-Lucia, you can damn sure bet I'd be kicking people's ass if they came near my survivors, and I'd be tough as shit about staying quiet and taking care of ourselves.

Also, I would so have left Sawyer behind.

But anyway, my point is, this hatred seems so sexist. I'm rambling and not making sense, so I'll stop now. I'm sure others have said it better.

Also, those of you who dislike her and have valid reasons? I love you still. It's the others I'm having trouble dealing with. (Hee. Others.)
