What’s the point of the constant “I hate Rory” posts? She’s a 15-22 year old when we see her. She is a child/young adult who grew up with a teen mom and in a town that coddled her making relatable mistakes, the horror. Unfortunately, people cheat. Unfortunately, people drop out of college. Unfortunately, people don’t handle rejection well.

I get discussing events, thinking about alt story lines, criticizing specific actions, etc., but the general “can’t stand Rory” posts are just… weird. Was she just supposed to be perfect while everyone around her was kooky at best and extremely flawed at worst?

As it goes, “you say you want more complex female characters but can’t even handle Rory Gilmore.”
