Walt is trash, we know that.Yeah, the way she thought of her family first, didn’t believe the bullshit that was handed to her, supported her husband through cancer and refused to put up with his shit was SO irritating. I always liked Skylar, she was really good and had to put up with so much shit.I’d like to say I don’t understand why she gets so much hate but sadly we all know the reason why she does :(Well, from my chair, I saw her do NOTHING to make it possible for Walt to do anything other than what he did (quite the contrary, actually) and then just complained endlessly about what he was doing. In other words, bring a solution, or STFU.She got a second job while heavily pregnant, was willing to ask anyone for money because she didn’t care about any ridiculous sense of “dignity”, she cared about keeping him alive. He continued to cook meth LONG after he had enough money for treatment, the whole fucking point was that he was in love with the power. He liked being in charge, he liked having the authority, he liked being a bad guy, he liked being a killer. He could have asked for money from his rich friends and they would have given it without question. He had choices, he WANTED to do what he did. I mean, that was the whole fucking point of the show and his character arc …Always a good time to bring this back. The title is facetious as the article actually makes fun of Skyler haters for their ridiculous reasonings.http://www.pajiba.com/seriously_random_lists/23-reasons-why-we-wont-miss-that-btch-skyler-white.phpomg that article is perfect the hate for Skyler is so fucking wild to me, and people like Viking up there come up with the most nonsensical reasons. like really?? even Walt admitted with his own damn mouth that he did these things because he wanted to, and people are still acting like he didn’t have a choice and everything is Skyler’s fault some how like omfgThe Skyler White effect is a real term they came up with as a result.“Man, I don’t see it that way at all. We’ve been at events and had all our actors up onstage, and people ask Anna Gunn, “Why is your character such a bitch?” And with the risk of painting with too broad a brush, I think the people who have these issues with the wives being too bitchy on Breaking Bad are misogynists, plain and simple. “ -Vince Gilligan, showrunner and creator of Breaking Bad.For the people who act like she was written to be a bitch, she wasn’t, the writers don’t think she is a bitch. The reason you think she is a bitch is because she got in Walt’s way and you lack the ability to, or you outright refuse to, acknowledge that just because a character gets in the way of the protagonist does not mean they are bad and coming up with lists of reasons to justify your hatred of her is misogynistic and you have been hit by that Skler White effect.“The Skyler White Effect: The cognitive dissonance that happens when a female character is presented by the narrative as absolutely correct in their judgment of a male character, and yet the viewers assume she’s the bitch.” -- source link
