I didn't say that I don't feel unwanted attraction to unlikeable characters. That actually happened to me a lot before I fell in love with Frankie. I've had plenty of purely fictional infatuations on characters that I otherwise don't care about at all. Most of them vanish within a matter of days and weeks... though some of them do tend to haunt and tempt me from time to time, even to this day.

I hate these types largely BECAUSE of the unwanted attraction. I'm smart enough to know that they're not worth my time, yet I sometimes still feel attracted to them on a 100% physical way, sometimes intensely.

And another thing; I love 'aggressiveness' as a general trait. I'm really into characters that are outwardly aggressive, tough and even harsh at times, but are also capable of genuine heart and compassion. I can even enjoy female characters that are thoroughly and unredeemably vile, on a "certified villain" basis and if they're well-written and portrayed.

I hate the manipulative, sleazy, scummy, egomanical type, when they're put in a serious PROTAGONIST role and not in a 100% villanous or satirical role. Even when I feel sudden and unwanted physical attraction, I still despise them in general. I just do.

But the good thing is, thanks to Frankie, I don't get these sudden unwanted attractions as much as before(I still do, but only very ocassionally). She's a stunning fox and a very human, genuine character at the same time.

I hope that made some sense.
