All the internet hugs. Don't have anything constructive or thoughtful to write but I read this and hugs. :(

Thank you for sharing. There are so many complexities to this and you've captured them so well. Thank you for helping me think about this in a detailed and hopefully more helpful way than I could have managed on my own.

Thank you for reading and commenting.

It was so lazy and hurtful to have it thrown in as unchallenged shorthand, and you are so right about it undoubtedly being very different if it were a male character.
