Yo @Shanal i didn't quote you when i read this post a little while ago
but i thought exactly of this kind of stuff as the post i quoted here when i read your reply about taking the fans trolling too seriously.
Just look at the kind of places the discourse is taken when it comes to Sanji, and i'm especially talking about the bolded part.
Like making up this type of bs, and trivializing it in this manner just to shit talk a fictional character is so incredibly pathetic

Though that aside- and I don't agree with nonsensical hating and generalization- Sanji does make him kind of an easy target for some stuff due to some of the gags, no?
I personally think that Oda goes completely brain fart with gags, and though the scenes where Sanji is outright abusing sexual privacy are pretty OOC, they still be there for ppl to easily prey on and just add to them, emphasizing more and more. Not to mention the disgust he shows in gag scenes regarding Okama, which is fairly okay when you look at it from a comical PoV, but when people start reading it with PC and modern PoV, it turns wrong lol.
All in all, he definitely is hated over this stuff and it's often unfair in a manner that those who do it blow it out of proportions. But Oda is also def big fault at that for making his gags the way they are- these might be more okay in 2000s but people now-a-days will likely not find it super funny. A part of me had hoped that he'd have at least some sort of commitment to Pudding and drop the gag to at least some degree, but rip, memory goes poof.
