I asked you to stop with the sexist shit
Ask away, the fact remains you are being hypercritical of the Rey portrayal on grounds for which you are simultaneously willing to defend the Luke portrayal to the point of ridiculousness. The only definable difference here is gender.
I actually fed you a load of rope on purpose with the Luke thing and the clever response would have been to say something "Yeah, that was also a bit silly, both portrayals sit poorly with everything else we know about the Jedi, even at the time of ANH it was made clear Jedi were typically apprenticed over many years". If you'd have done that I'd have been totally wrong footed and would have happily ate humble pie.
What you actually did was take a short sighted view and fought the battle at the expense of the war (as I suspected you might). You made a string of points hopelessly questioning the counter criticisms which several people had aimed at the Luke portrayal, leaving yourself open to exactly what you have received, suggestions of sexism. You have done nothing to provide any solid case one portrayal is markedly different to the other in terms of the abilities or training required to achieve them, in fact you haven't even countered the point that the issues are even
more pronounced in Luke's case than Rey's yet for some reason it is her who comes under fire for being a "Mary Sue".
Again, she's a girl.
I've already said ad nauseam that it's Johnson's crappy writing.
Define "crappy writing"
And quit acting like I invented Mary Sue, that's the term for it
No, not really, "Mary Sue" is a term for wish fulfilment on the part of the writer who essentially inserts an idealised version of themself into a story, as personified by the character (you guessed it) Mary Sue who was a love interest for Kirk in an anthology story. It's just being misused a lot these days by people who don't know or care where it came from and simply think it means "perfect female character", which in turn simply becomes "any female character who upsets the tradition of the ultra competent male hero".
The way we had Michael Burnham lambasted simultaneously for being an awful officer
and a Mary Sue is symptomatic of that widespread misuse and misunderstanding of the term.
If she were a he, I'd be calling him a Wesley Crusher or something.
More typically Gary Sue or some variation thereof
I'm speaking for myself and have given no statistics from which to divine grains of sand from. The only fact I can support would be that statistically I cannot be the only who believes this.
Statistically many people believe the Earth is flat. They can make much the same claim.
