Yeah, that's what I figured it was. Sad but true. Don't get me wrong, Tom is one of my favorite characters. But why should there be a double standard and stuff about Neelix being pervy because he's short and homely by our standards? Well I know they're probably taking his personality into it as well. The jealously, the neediness.
I don't know, maybe I'm easy to please or laid back about stuff. But I've never understood the hate that some fictional characters get. Whenever I read some stuff on here or other sites, I will think, they're not that bad. There's always some good points. Like I was reading some stuff about Harry recently. And I thought, maybe those statements are true but what about his good qualities. Like being one of the first ones to make an effort to help Tom or B'Elanna and being a friend to both even when they didn't like each other.
*Another person that posts on this site wrote a really good essay about Neelix. I think it's
@TheGoodStuff who wrote it. And the link to it is in her signature line.
