I will do my best not to judge OP as many people have already. That being said, I beg people to read more Shounen, Shoujo, and Josei with female leads. They exist. They are just not going to be minstream!
Female Shonen characters that have better writing than orihime (on top of my head):
Nami
Nico Robin
Boa Hancock
Tsunade
Sakura Haruno
Hinata Hyuga
Temari
Erza Scarlet
Lucy Heartfilia
Juvia Lockser
Maki Zenin
Nobara Kugisaki
Mai Zenin
Nezuko Kamado
Shinobu Kocho
Mitsuri Kanroji
An apology from us: We pulled an offensive Halloween costume that should never have been part of our assortment. It is no longer for sale. As a company, we got this wrong, and we are deeply sorry. We know this is especially hurtful for our Black guests, team members and partners.
People on Twitter refuse to understand context. Lol You can have four people hang out in the space. We're talking about actual house parties here. In which, you actually have the space and resources to use them. I've hung out with my friends normally. This is not that.
People are disingenuous about this. Lol No one wants to host a tiny party in an apartment or shared living space because it's kills the mood. Like OP says, nobody is doing that because it frankly, sucks.
That woman is 100% right and she should say it. I have no issues with people coming into hobbies wanting to learn and be open-minded. I have a problem with people who refuse to integrate, complain about everything, and then get mad when you tell them not to engage.
