True feminism (not the radical ideaology) is about equal rights and equal treatment for women which is absolutely the right thing to do. This also means that ALL double standards in favor of or against EITHER gender must be purged. Being in favor of double standards in favor of your gender and not allowing double standards in favor of the other makes one a hyopcrite. One cannot have their cake and eat it too. The logical conclusion to this point is that true and proper relationships are about mutual respect, mutual choice, mutual consent. This is why as a male I find ArrangedMarriage to be an unholy abominbation. A tradition inherently based on [[{{LawfulEvil}} domination, exploitation, and control]] is a gross violation upon the natural order, which is that the female is the one who ultimately chooses their mate.

The last reason why Glossy is so hated is in fact the way the Sisterhood arc is being handeled. Its being handeled in a very preachy, ram rod itself down your throat approach with the seeming aesop of \\\"All men are exploitative, controlling misogynist pigs\\\". In addition, all of the male characters in this strip who don\\\'t act this way (Criminy for example) seem to have for the most part disappeared, getting very little screen time in order to support this argument. Chivarlous, honorable men get offended by this arc due to the way it seems to lump them in with the asses. The way the arc is being handeled is completely not funny. An approach based on mockery, parody, and satire would have made the Sisterhood arc MUCH more enjoyable. Sinfest seems to have lost its sense of humor over the past year as it has gotten darker and more serious, a change that can be directly linked to Glossy. Disgaea4APromiseUnforgotten handeled the darker more serious appproach much better. The last three chapters got very dark (thanks to the introduction of a KnightOfCerebus), but it got handeled well because the game still remembered its roots and made sure the player had plenty of moments to laugh to balance out the change of tone.

She does however take a very aggressive stance when it comes to males. If one reads the authors written, those books she gave were of a VERY radical stance (of the kind that usually tries to stuff their views down someone\'s throat type of radical). Those books through a chain of events were the cause of the recipient nearly getting bomfed. Going back to 7/5, Glossy went straight for the more aggressive option. Knowing the nature of the character targeted (he\'s in all purposes a painfully shy, well intentioned moron), and the fact that his intentions were NEVER malicious, he would have been willing to listen to reason. Did Glossy try that approach first before using more aggressive methods? No. What does she do in regards to Sally\'s behaviour towards Linus, which is much worse? Nothing. Conclusion: Unless the fanbase gets evidence to the contrary, it is a reasonably valid assumption that Glossy\'s actions towards men who are in the wrong are much more aggressive than her actions towards women in the wrong (assuming she has a reaction at all towards that all despite being the exact same situation). This means that there is a double standard which makes her a hypocrite and quite possibly sexist against men. This brings me to my next point.
