I didn't like that Teyla didn't get to do anything "because she was pregnant" or "because Rachel was pregnant". That's different to "not liking Teyla".
I still liked what we saw of Teyla; but a lot of the responses I've beeing seen from all over fandom write Teyla off entirely. She's mean and cruel because she didn't choose John over Kanaan. She's stupid because she didn't fight for the rights of pregnant women in all the fictional and non-fictional universes. She's boring because she was pregnant and couldn't do anything during the season.
Yes, I was frustrated with the limits of the storyline - but Teyla's still an awesome character. Her situation has changed; her innate awesomeness hasn't.
And that's the frustration I'm feeling with fandom right now.
