<3 your links. [also, dumb question, J2 is the two actors who play Sam and Dean, right?]
That argument makes me SO MAD especially because, like, a lot of the time it's coming from people who would never in a million years accept it about, like, female characters. ARGH. It's not just write/get yelled at or don't write at all! YOU COULD WRITE WITH LESS FAIL. and also, also, it's not like POC are actually waiting for someone to slip up EVEN A LITTLE so they can, I dunno, flame the author forever or something.
One of the things that bothers me so much about the Narnia fandom is that we're so good at critiquing the misogyny issues but we're not very good at the race issues, and I absolutely include myself in that because how often do I write about non-white characters in Narnia? NOT OFTEN. /tangent
