#and like i totally get and even advocate for female characters like katniss and nancy not just being reduced down to what boy they date

i totally understand why people are exhausted by characters (esp female characters) revolving around a romance. but sometimes love is important to the story. it’s important the character experiences it. important that they choose love and happiness.

sometimes love is a major part of their story. sometimes it isn’t reducing a character to say that love is important. sometimes it gives them more depth. sometimes ignoring and disregarding the love woven into their stories makes them weaker characters
