Why has Hazel been taking more flak than Daley?
I find this really strange, and think it says something about peoples attitudes towards women (and actually, moreso, men). I don't particularly like Hazel... she's a silly, immature girl who has been a bit naive and she's sort of annoying to watch... BUT... what has she really done? Flirted with and tried to "get" a guy for a showmance / magazine deals / whatever. A bit pathetic definitely but she is single and free to do what she wants.
Daley in the other hand is the one who is hurting someone. Hazel has been branded an evil homewrecker but it would have come to nothing if he wasn't willing to have his home wrecked. Daley claims to have loved his girlfriend and yet has willingly broken her heart. Hazel owes the girl nothing - she isn't her friend... she hasn't even met her.
So why the Hazel hatred? Why less for Daley? honestly the implication is that "poor, stupid men" are powerless to resist the evil come-ons of a female and can't be blamed for being horny old dogs. That Hazel should have been considering his girlfriend, because of COURSE Daley would be powerless to resist..
Opinion seems to be starting to turn now and theyre both being equally blamed, but I have no idea why it started out skewed the other way in the first place. I still think in a Daley vs Hazel public vote, Hazel would go for what she's "done"... which is ridiculous. You don't have to like Hazel, she isn't very likeable really, but she hasn't done anything "morally wrong" whereas Daley has been outright vile to someone he's repeatedly claimed to love. Blatantly has no idea what the word means.
