* FanDislikedExplanation: "Chapter Forty-Seven" reveals that Jane has been having oral sex with her partners throughout the series. Some felt that this undermined the dramatic tension of her lovers choosing to abstain from sex for her, or felt that only considering penetrative sex as losing one's virginity was reductive and out-of-character for Jane.

* ParanoiaFuel: Sin Rostro is a MasterOfDisguise with access to visage-altering surgeries and LatexPerfection masks, not to mention [[BodyDouble Body Doubles]] that mean even if you kill her she could just be FakingTheDead. After she [[spoiler:kidnaps Mateo]] at the end of Season 1, the cast all become paranoid that anyone they meet could be her. [[spoiler:ProperlyParanoid when it comes to Rafael, who correctly assumes that Louisa's new girlfriend in Season 3 is Rose in disguise.]]

** In an episode that focuses on the concept of writer's block, many characters and even the LatinLover Narrator shower author Creator/JKRowling with praise, just one year before Rowling would express political opinions that the ''Jane the Virgin'' creative team are diametrically opposed to.

** In an episode that focuses on the concept of writer's block, many characters and even the LatinLover Narrator shower author Creator/JKRowling with praise, specifically for her strength of character. This just one year before Rowling would express political opinions that the ''Jane the Virgin'' creative team are diametrically opposed to.

* DracoInLeatherPants: [[spoiler:Rose]] is revealed to be a massive drug kingpin and regularly abuses her girlfriend [[spoiler:Luisa in ways that range from gaslighting her to getting her locked in a mental hospital]], but a lot of fans online massively downplay her negative qualities due to her charisma and [[spoiler:Creator/BridgetRegan's good looks]]. Most online fanfics play [[spoiler:Rose and Luisa's relationship as a fairytale romance and erase the abuse entirely]].

** Is Rafael a fundamentally good person who makes questionable decisions as a result of the increasing dysfunction surrounding him, or a selfish, sleazy manipulator? Building on that, are his feelings for Jane grounded in reality, or just him projecting his desire for a stable family unit towards her and Mateo? Jane herself acknowledges that Rafael goes into dark places when things get bad, but also realizes how much the toxicity he has around him affects him negatively and recognizes how hard he works to be a good father for his kids and tries to improve himself in general. The two spend all of season 3 (including the three-year TimeSkip occurring in the mid-season finale) being AmicableExes; [[spoiler:by the time they rekindle their relationship in season 4, they are more aware of the potential consequences should they screw up, but since Rafael is matured a lot during all their time spent apart, during which they also got to know each other ''way'' better, they manage to form a pretty solid and healthy couple, ending up HappilyMarried in the GrandFinale. So, it’s safe to assume the first interpretation is definitely the right one as the series progresses.]]

** Is Michael a selfish, manipulative and reckless DirtyCop like Rafael sees him, or a sweet and dependable NiceGuy like Jane sees him? The show takes something of a middle ground -- while he does try to manipulate events in his favor in the beginning (like blackmailing Petra with her affair so they'd keep the baby, etc), he is loyal to and prioritizes Jane, and later admits his mistakes that led to their break-up. He is fully the latter by late season 2. Or rather, the writers went so far as to basically whitewash all his controversial traits and made him a sort of MartyStu at that point, with almost ''every'' character praising how good he is. [[spoiler:Then, when he comes back from the dead in season 5, his selfish traits are emphasized once again, even after regaining his memory (for example, he tries to get Jane back despite her being in a committed relationship with Rafael and not caring about the consequences his attempt to rekindle their relationship would have on her new life and family). In conclusion, it’s safe to assume he is a bit of both interpretations.]]
