I guess women shouldn't have any hobbies, interests, careers, etc. They should just become obsessed with what their man is doing, even if it involves risking their fucking lives, and obey his every wish. Thanks for teaching me how to be a misogynist, Insomniac!
It was the other way around. Peter gets infected with the symbiote and it eventually spirals into what can only be described as mind control. And, by the way, the suit has never actually worked this way before and it is an incredibly lazy way for it to work at all.
In the comic books and the 90s TV show, the suit made Spider-Man stronger at the cost of inflating his ego. The symbiote didn't control the person wearing it; it enhanced the raw potential of what was already there. This is why Eddie Brock turns into a hulking monster when he transforms and why many female symbiotes would become far more voluptuous. The symbiote gave its wearers their heart's desire, so to speak, but at a cost. Eddie wants to be a brute, so he becomes a brute. Women want to be sexier, so the symbiote accentuates their curves. The suit was analogous to drug use and addiction. It made you feel good or look awesome as fuck but would have a hidden cost on the wearer over time.
MJ in Spider-Man 2 fucking knows Peter has essentially been under mind control the whole time. Not only that, but he has been fighting in a warzone day after day, risking his life to save the people of NYC. Yet, even after all that, she has the audacity to get all angsty and upset when Peter isn't giving her enough time or attention or being supportive as she pursues a worthless career as a keyboard warrior. And Peter has to apologize for everything and tell her she is correct. It's fucking disgusting.
