All people have to learn is the difference between "I find this convention in writing personally annoying, and here are my reasons" and " fiction is bad today because people are using this convention and they don't understand literature's basic purpose."

It's funny how men will demonstrate oppositional defiant disorder towards women for having any authority considering how submissive they are to male authority figures. Misogyny can be amusing, men just don't realize they're the punchline.
