Yeah, plus, I like Nimueh because she is hot, and I'm shallow. Why is that wrong? Doesn't mean that we're condoning misogyny because if someone was like that in RL we'd smack them down for it.

It bothers me I think because of the implication that people pick up their life lessons from TV. As if Merlin will effect our real life choices? (Beyond - do I spend Valentine's at home watching my brother cook spaghetti carbonara for his gf, or spend it in a pub in London with Merlin fangirls.) It's like when people blame TV for violence. GIVE US SOME CREDIT, or something.

Unless after Merlin we think it's ok to get swords and go out beheading people who are "different"?
