Why do readers here thinks every MC in a story is a perfect person? No flaw, no lacking in areas? If the MC was too perfect and everything goes according to her to easily it would've been boring to them, but if not then it's frustrating and calling characters a Btch.

@ELLA Dreamer we don't thing shes perfect but for a character that the author labelled as SMART SINCE CHAPTER 1 , of course the reader expects her to be smart at some level but this kind of stupidity is unthinkable and frustrating to read to some reader. You can call it rage baiting even for reader to curse the the FL. How other angry reader label her however, is not ours to control. It depends on their background and how they were raise and what vocab they are used to. Just because we didn't curse, other people cant curse the FL for her stupidity. So yeah
@Seraphielle then it is their problem, they can simply just drop this story if they're soo frustrated not that they course her until how many chapters. They don't have her for being stupid, they hate her because they were used to those OP Mary Sue characters! As a reader, it is fine to start of bad and frustrating, but on your journey to readings the story, id be enough to give you a full understanding of what kind of person she is! They understood her yet want more for her, that's why they're frustrated not being who they thought she was. Honestly.. I really hate it when it gets personal, and they always ruin a good read😤😤 people Should no longer put expectations to what they're labeled for, but to understand and know them through the chapters. But I guess we are different in many ways, I can't blame them anymore, but hopefully they'll make a change.
