AN: This isn't a new chapter. I'm so sorry about this, but I really couldn't let this review go, until I had my say. I did delete it from the review section, but since they were on anon and I am not able to respond in private, here it is: (The review is in Bold.)

Reviewer Tictac (anon)

I just read your story by accident as I clicked on it while looking for another story. I have to say I was left disappointed and confused.

Like it says in my profile, there's a back button and a little x. Please feel free to use either.

First, your point that Finn missed the point of the song he was singing was actually pretty hypocritical as Santana and other women sang Cellblock Tango and completely missed the whole point of their assignment to sing about domestic violence.

First, this takes place after 3x06 and 3x07, the episode you're referring to is 3x18. In this story, that hasn't happened yet, nor would it happen in anything I write. I completely understand your point and agree with you that both songs are hypocritical, which the latter episode addressed. The episodes I'm writing about do not address this fact, which is why I am.

Also, you say that Finn announced Santana's sexuality in front of the whole cafeteria when in fact it was actually as a rebuttal to her own hurtful comments about his weight. You made it seem as though he was bullying her about it and telling everyone. He was not to know that it would become an advert and that her parents would find out.

Actually, if you read what I wrote, I said he outed her in a crowded school hallway, which is canon. Yes, he was reacting to what she said. However, there is NEVER an excuse to out someone before they're ready, whether or not someone says hurtful comments to you. No, he didn't know that it would be used in an ad campaign, but he did know people could, and probably would, overhear them. If he wanted to say something like that, he should have done it in private.

Third, you claimed that Finn was a bully for telling Santana that it must hurt not to be able to tell someone that you love them while Santana (who may have given Finn anxieties about his weight which he has had) has said appalling things to people and hurt countless people while passing it off as humour.

No, I never claimed that was why Finn was a bully. I said he was a bully for threatening, coercing, and verbally & emotionally attacking her. I never once said that Santana didn't do her fair share of verbally attacking people, we all know she does it. I was, in fact, pointing out that Finn did it as well.

Fourth, no one seemed to address the fact that Santana should have been given some punishment for the slap. It was violence and it should not be the answer. Many people were witnesses to it yet none of them came forward apparently.

Sure, Santana should have been punished. However, as is canon, Finn said it was a stage slap. So, since Santana hit Finn and he's claiming it was a stage slap, this argument is null.

Also, your story did not really teach anyone anything as Finn was merely yelled at for telling someone that they were not dealing with their own issues when they were cruel to others. He should have been sat down and had it explained to him why it was wrong and what he should have done differently. Instead, he would become angry and resentful for being punished for something he did not understand.

I beg to differ. Finn was not "merely yelled at." In fact, there was no yelling in my story at all. In all technicalities, this story did exactly what you say it didn't do. I had Finn sitting down, while Santana told him what he did wrong. There may not have been much of WHY it was wrong, but really, in this story and this fandom, I'm pretty sure I don't have to add in why everything Finn did was wrong. Also, I made sure to put in there, that as part of his punishment, he would have to write papers on WHY what he did was wrong and what he's learned. I believe that it's better for people to learn information themselves rather than just being handed everything.

It was rushed and badly written"

Again, I disagree. If you had the balls to come off anon, I would have been inclined to answer this privately. However, I will not stand for these sorts of reviews without speaking out against them.

Then you have the AUDACITY to write more anon reviews saying that I can't handle criticism or take it? If any of this were constructive or had ANY basis in fact, I would take it as constructive criticism.

So, unless you have anything constructive or nice to say, or want to come off anon, please do not review any more of my stories.
