Silly question...we like his hat and pipe...
Hurl alert obviously inadvertently omitted?
I’d follow Sherlock.
As for the writer? Why follow someone to get their hair done in a woman’s hair care facility?
The original American made TV series from 1954 featuring Ronald Howard. It was filmed in Paris funny enough, even though its supposed to be in London.:

Beth Daley is an idiot of epic proportions. Doesn’t she know about Irene Adler, who was portrayed as a female match for Sherlock Holmes in every way? Hmmm, Beth, you dingbat?
“...his latent violence.”
What a nut.
He has what is now known as a "high sensitivity personality" (HSP per Elaine Aron) in that he observes (and senses) extremely deeply his surroundings and interests PLUS he has extremely high trait "openness" (per Peterson or Jung) PLUS he has strong masculinity.
Another passenger for the helicopter.
They are coming after everyone and everything. Only one thing will stop these agents of societal destruction at this point.
Sherlock Holmes is a man of very high intelligence, forced to interact with people nowhere near as smart as him, and who don’t realize that they are nowhere near as smart.
This is utterly ridiculous. She mentions “A Scandal In Bohemia “, but never mentions Irene Adler whom Holmes respects and admires, taken by her beauty and intellect.
He’s so dominant and/or superior to everyone around him. He arouses your own curiosity and ambition to be superior.
Recently I have both watched and read Sherlock Holmes. Compared to Hercule Poirot, Sherlock Holmes is an amature.
Doyle is simplistic compared to Agatha Christie. Holmes is in fact disappointing
“acter were not further challenged in the TV shows. While he is not actually violent, unlike many toxic men, and the characters around him do call him out on his behaviours, especially Watson, his intelligence is still understood through his toxic masculinity...”
Apparent intelligence, scholarship, rationality, situational awareness, wherewithal and a sense of fair play are manifestations of toxic masculinity, in boys of European descent, anyway. Otherwise, they’re all virtues.
I don’t know if I want to call it toxic masculinity. But Holmes is definitely a jerk. And they did a good job with that in the Cumberpatch series. Also a good job with visual depiction of him picking up small clues, those little graphics were cool.
If we talk about toxic masculinity, we need to give fair time to toxic feminism.
*crickets*
The writer of this krep exhibits signs of toxic femininity and retardation. In fact, could be the poster child for them.
tradcon women hero
yet smart enough to not be involved with women
I actually liked the Cumberbatch version of Sherlock. At least the first 2 seasons. The writers lost something between seasons 2 and 3.
But, I’m borderline-ASD myself, and I recognized a lot of my own behaviors in him. My obsession is different than his, but it’s just as consuming. And he’s one of very few TV characters that doesn’t spend half his time bed-hopping. The episode “The Blind Banker” actually does a pretty good job showing what my thought process is usually like.
I think the writer of this article would have serious problems with me. She’d just have to find another label to slap on it, since I’m a woman and supposedly am not capable of “toxic masculinity”. But I hope I never meet her, because she sounds like the toxic one.
Holmes was Sheldon Cooper 1.0! w/o the hot blond.
Holmes is a riddle, wrapped in an enigma..
