I think they both resented still being in daytime at that point (or if JFP's case, not having real power the way she had at her other soaps - although like Guza she also seemed to dislike the basics of soaps), and both seemed to have a heavy disdain for women. Then you have Guza's teamup with Tony Geary, who had so many toxic ideas.
When the whole Liz rape story first aired, I felt like too much focused on Lucky, and then Luke. There were some very moving moments with Liz, Bobbie and Audrey to balance that out. I would give most of the credit for the balance to Wendy Riche, as when that story was revived with JJ's return and Lucky's nostalgia for Liz bleeding in the snow post-rape, I sensed zero female point of view, although given how close MVJ is to Guza, I am aware she would not agree.
