Hathor makes me cringe for the very simple fact that it never should have happened. It kind of offends my sensibilities as a woman that these doofuses assumed that Hathor was no threat even though she used the royal we and gave several creepy insinuations that she knew all about Ra...because she was a woman. If they hadn't treated her with kid gloves and instead as any other threat, none of it would have happened. I sincerely doubt that if it had been a male walking into Cheyenne Mountain with priveledged information that the treatment would have been identical.
It just bugs me, that's all.
Once they're whammied, I suppose I could give a little leeway, but I never seem to be able to because I'm looped back around to being irritated that they weren't savvy enough to avoid the whammy in the first place.
Okay, got that off my chest. The idea of Hathor, while repugnant from one side of feminism isn't completely horrible. I did like Sam and Janet and the rest of the nameless females on the base kicking ass and taking names. But then, I would expect no less in the situation. They proved that women shouldn't be dismissed as threats all by themselves.
There were a couple of cute moments - Daniel explaining to Jack and George that Hathor was the goddess of sex, drugs and rock and roll was cute just for the way in which he and Jack parlayed a little.
Jack called Hathor Miss Hath Whore. I heard it. I know he did it.
"Is mental illness contagious?" and the story about the woman down on 73rd who talks to the little devils in her hair make me giggle.
"You're...you're like a queen bee," Daniel said with awe. *snort*
I think this was the first of the very few canonical and often abused fanonically "Dannys."
Why on Earth was Jack walking around base without a T-shirt on? Oh, yeah, so he could become a Jaffa later.
I'm confused about how Daniel is Hathor's chosen one, but at the end she calls Jack, the lowly servant near-Jaffa her love. Er...wha?
And don't even get me going about Sam and Janet finding Daniel in a catatonic state and not even thinking twice about it (yeah, they were busy) or the fact that it's assumed later that Daniel was a consenting participant in the whole DNA gathering Hathor did. (All Jack has to say is "ew?")
I dunno, I guess I've never left a guy in a traumatized catatonia after sex so I probably can't relate. Is that perfectly normal and I'm just not doing it right?
