Hello, I'm going to talk about Reader inserts. Those whom are big fans of Reader Inserts I suggest that you should turn around. I'm going to give out three reasons why I hate them.

1. Reader-chan: Urgh I despise that nickname with a burning passion. You making me (a young woman in her twenties) sound like some cutesy little girl. STOP THAT! It's annoying in my opinion. 

2. I'm a brainless bimbo: I'm almost always portrayed as a brainless bimbo whom has no back bone and relies on men to help me CONSTANTLY. I know that I'm pretty dependent on many things at times, but I'm NOT that stupid. Why make me sound like I'm a stupid brat?
If I do stand up for myself in Reader insert fics I end up making a idiot of myself.

I also want an fanfic where Reader turns down an abusive character and call out on their shitty behavior, instead of going 'I'll forgive since I'm an shallow bimbo that believes that good looks will protect you from your shitty attitude.'

3. Most of are always the same boring thing: There's also the same thing where all guys fall for the reader for no reason. It's freaking unrealistic. Not all men will for the same girl. They all have their own taste in women. So why can't have some bromance with the male characters for once?

EDIT!

4. I'm always an cliché fan service blob: I've also noticed that Reader also gets this annoying cliché an some fan service girl that has guys drooling over her body. Like guys lusting over her body or walking while she's changing for whatever reason.

5. I'm always the only girl that exists: I've always noticed that Reader is always the only girl that exists. I have no female friends in the fic, but when I do, it's not the more interesting and full of potential canon girls (cause wouldn't you want your favorite female character as an friend? I DO!), but the annoying author inserting themselves in the fanfic or her ocs, because reasons.
What's wrong with the canon girls? Are they not good enough?
In fact, I've seen more canon girls being gender bended into guys so special snowflake Reader-chan can have more cocks to suck on and drool over her bishie dominant world.
It proves the author and the followers don't give an jackshit about the characters in general and only think about about their disgusting fantasies.
I'd rather follow an Reader x Canon Female that revolves around their friendship.

the reader insert often is more blank than an unsalted cracker, has no personality and makes you wonder how the canon would fall in love with this boring ass stick
