I meant things like the way Inara's clients treat her; like the jerk who hired her to the ball and ended up duelling Mal - who obviously thought paying Inara entitled him to treating her like a piece of furniture - or the guy who hired her to take his son's virginity; who wasn't very...
The Companions obviously are in control of what they do and with whom, etc.; but that's not really what I meant.
And Mal totally came across as a jerk; but that the narrative sold his behaviour as their relationship being romantic despite said jerk-hood is what troubles me.
Founded by girl geeks and members of the slash fandom, scans_daily strives to provide an atmosphere which is LGBTQ-friendly, anti-racist, anti-ableist, woman-friendly and otherwise discrimination and harassment free.
Bottom line: If slash, feminism or anti-oppressive practice makes you react negatively, scans_daily is probably not for you.
