Oh I agree, I've just stated that feeling from my experience, but then I suppose I'm biased anyway.
And I agree about the stigma of being a Will fan. Yes, there are people that enjoy Will solely because of his appearance (and the Will thread at KTTC is doing nothing to stop that, IMO), but there are plenty who like the character for the character. Sure, I found Orlando attractive my first time viewing the first movie, and I still do, but I would enjoy Will as much as I do if he were written in a book and never depicted visually by anyone. I like the character as he's written and depicted and absolutely none of my interest in him comes from who's playing him or his appearance. None.
Honestly, just because I have to say it, anyone who's going to feel better than someone because they're more mature is showing their own immaturity by thinking that.
