Sorry if the titolo gave anyone a fright. I have actually been seeing quite a bit of Winx hate on other sites lately so I just wanted to type a quick brief articolo debating anti-fans' 3 main issues with the show. As another note, this is not a direct response to Dragonempress08's article, I've been meaning to type this for a while and she/he reminded me of it. I may make a secondo part if I see any more.
Common argument 1; The Winx dress too slutty
Being semi-lazy I will copy and expand on the commento I left on the other article. I do agree that the outfits are too showy but I still enjoy the mostra and if patents have such a big deal with it it's as simple as not letting the kid watch it. My parents let me watch it at the innocent age of 8, with that in mind I can safely say most children won't even think of the cleveage o boobs. I didn't, my 6 anno old sister didn't. I just really, really liked Icy a lot. :D Also know that many cartoni animati are in fact for adults too; a lot of themes in Winx are aimed at teens and preteens and the majority of the fan here claim to be around that age. There is a sondaggio (link) in which the common answer revealed that most users here are ages 11-15 and the least amount was 1-10 I am 19. Just look at Spongebob; there is a pesce in the background that with no pants that shows it's...male anatomy uncensored. Compared to that Winx is nothing.
Common point 2; They are too skinny
Again if this is such a problem parents simply can tell the kid not to watch this show. But my sister and I are living proof that kids don't even think about this stuff. At age 8 I didn't even know what anorexia was and I never even thought about how thin they were. In fact it wasn't until I took art class and started high school (and of course re-watched the show) until I realized how skinny they were. Yes, being a sort of artist, this kind of bugs me, but like most I can look past it and appreciate the story.
Common Point 3; The main character is a Mary-Sue
While I agree whole heatedly there are plenty of other characters on this mostra to love. Just because te don't like the main character doesn't mean te can't the the mostra and appreciate the other characters. I always hate the main character, always...
The other characters have way less typical backgrounds and are very enjoyable (especially Icy. Everyone here knows not one articolo I type will exclude her, even when she's not nessisary. :D)
