I understand completely about wanting to argue this; I only lurk on the avatar.spirit.net boards because I don't have the eloquence or stamina to take on these people. (there's a 140 page thread on Azula and redemption) so I settle for venting in relative privacy.
I have this morbid curiosity about what their reactions would be if Azula had been male .For some reason I'm thinking of Isabella Linton defending and marrying Heathcliff in Wuthering Hights, believing that she could change him.
I think one of the problems is that they only see their favorite character and what effects her while minimizing her faults to the point where they seem to think she was okay offscreen, They don't seem to consider how her behavior effects other people who are powerless to do something or even to just leave.
While I've never cared at all for TyZula your personal life experiences have given me an unforgettable perspective on both the relationship and the characters, particularyly Ty Lee. You are very brave for being so honest.
