She wasn't speaking of the canon character though. As she said in our conversation, what she doesn't like is redeemed!fanon!Draco. The Draco that's a sweetheart inside, who goes around decked out in leather and is secretly in love with Harry/Hermione/Ginny/Neville. It was a comment on what a certain sub-division of fans (ie: movieverse!fans) have done to the bookverse character. Not an insult.
