I hate Andrea. She was a total b***h to Dale, she loves to sleep with any guy she can get her hands on and does not even think about the consequences such as bringing a baby into that awful world. She only thinks about herself. She ditched Michonne for some d**k she barely even knows and worst of all SHE SHOT MOTHER ******** DARYL! At that point I was ready for that b***h to die.
1) Dale took a choice away from her that she was ready to make. He put himself in danger, knowing that she would have to save him. It was a d**k move and she had every right to be upset.
2) Every guy she can get her hands on? She's slept with two men in the series. One was Shane, who was basically like her male counterpart. The other was the Governor whom she slept with after months of only being around Michonne. She was lonely and felt a connection to someone. As an consenting adult there is nothing wrong with that. Also- sex=/=baby. Hell, pregnancy=/=baby. Abortion is still an option. Who is to say she's not using condoms? They've never addressed that so you can't say for sure that she doesn't care.
3) Think of it this way- Michonne was ruthless, barbaric and untrusting. Even though they had travelled together for months the Governor offered Andrea a sense of safety and stability that Michonne never could have. It may not have been a wise choice, but she doesn't know everything about the Governor that we do. All she sees is a nice guy who cares about keeping his people alive.
4) As much as that upset me too, Daryl did look like a walker. He was limping out of the woods, covered in blood, looking beat up as hell with a zombie ear necklace. From that distance there was no way to tell who or what it was, and if you've ever tried shooting using a sight, it's not easy. She saw the shot and she took it because she wanted to defend the camp. Not a crime.
What the hell do you mean abortion is still an option? You want her to use a coat hanger? Do you know how completely unsafe that is during a zombie apocalypse? Oh and by the way condoms break and do not always prevent pregnancy. Michonne told her that they weren't how she thought they were. Michonne is not ruthless and untrusting, maybe a bit barbaric but not that much. Now just stop trying to bring your bullshit upon me please.
Whoah.
I think lostand was simply trying to tell you that they disagree.
Personally, I disagree with you too.
I understand what you are saying, however, Andrea is simply human, and very similar to Shane. I see a lot more hate on Andrea than I do Shane. And yes, I'm making a comparison, as I think it is important to do in this situation. I think if Andrea was a man, there would be a lot less hate on her.
If Andrea was a man and had sex and with two partners in a span of 6-7 months, no one would care. If Andrea, as a man, had shot a gun and made a mistake, then it wouldn't be seen as such a bad issue.
I get what you are saying, and in her shoes, I would definitely try not to do some of the stupid things she does. However, I also don't know if I would be aware of all of those things. How would I know that the guy who seems so nice and protective is really crazed and might kill me and my friends? How do I know that Daryl was the one I'm shooting at? How would I know that it is far safer outside the walls that inside? I probably wouldn't.
I would hope I would be loyal, focused and not get into bad situations, but that may not be the case. Personally, I think we as an audience can have ways of hating her, but not because she is a woman or because of the consequences of being a woman, but because of her character flaws (too trusting, too gullible--those I get), but sex with men means slut or mean to someone or other gendered words are not super helpful or constructive.
I just hope that the next time you post, you think a little bit more to make your words and decisions better before you post and try to express what you want to say without attacking someone, and maybe explain why you think you are right. I know that I am far more willing to listen and think on something if I am feeling comfortable instead of attacked.
