On topic, I know exactly what you mean. It's like hating an actor because he or she plays an evil character. In fact it's exactly what it's like. It makes me afraid to play some certain roles too.
Pfft, don't be afraid to roleplay anything. Things may scrape against the majority's favoured opinion in the most -extreme- of cases, but that's a rarity, and at the end of the day the only opinions that matter is your own (and perhaps your friends). Everything mentioned reaffirms my opinion that most cases are just miscommunications, and if folks are blurring the OOC with the IC, well, there's not much that can be helped. :S
