Yeah I definitely think this issue isn’t taken as seriously as it should be. Too bad whenever its bought up all the “cool feminists” rush out to defend porn. This is from Gloria Steinem’s wiki page and I just cannot agree with it enough:

Exactly, and this is the standard im aiming for in everything, whether its Hollywood films or tv. It can be done we’ve seen it in Korra. Now it just needs to become the norm not the exception.
Oh yes I definitely agree that the individuals/personalities that are Jenkins and Gadot made it work in a way that was extremely empowering where another duo mightn’t have. Ok I guess we are thinking of princesses that way im on board.
eh mens name are paternal too, meaning they also came from someone else. But somehow men are allowed to fully own their names whereas women are reminded that their name is either their fathers or their husbands. Pretty messed up. So basically women never get to have their own names. The better way is to just accept…
Yeah I also mentioned this under another comment but I think it is worth while pointing out that the camera did hover on wonder woman in a tillitating fashion that just did not happen at all with Superman or Batman. Like the way it hovered over her thigh or coverage of her bodyparts. The only thing I can remember from…
I think Im the only one but i enjoyed it and I can imagine it playing all summer over the radios, its a nice easy breezy tune.
I’m with you, I’m so over this everything is a joke phase we are going through right now. Even when the comedy isn’t actually funny its just shock comedy. But then my tastes range to watching Mr Bean, so I find the rest of comedy just vulgar and ridiculous and not actually funny, just more shocking.
Yeah I feel like Wonder Woman has been elevated so far that we can’t make a feminist critique on it. Even Gal Gadot mentioned in an interview that her costume was designed by a man and it was so tight at first that she couldn’t breathe. I definitely think this movie would have been different if it was women at every…
I need this as a solution that I can inject in my veins everyday. Seriously how does one get this confident?
Yup there’s a comment up there about Ed Sheeran should ont be earning as much because he’s not Bob Dylan works and its on the money. You make what you make...especially since at the moment schumer is actually more popular and more relevant than the others so props to her for getting what shes worth.
Hmm wonder woman was created by a man though, so its possible that she may have looked less “sexy” if she was created by a woman. I know when I see female comic book artists draw her vs the male ones...there’s defintely a difference in the emphasis placed on her bodies, less focus on her butt and breasts. Also the…
I kind of agree in the sense that I want to see a lot more heroines that aren’t objectified at all. Men have so many heroes who are fully clothed the entire story. It just gets tiring when every single major female hero or character of any time abolsutely has to show skin.
I definitely believe in past lives and I think the people we have the strongest reactions to, whether good or bad, are people we’ve met many times before. Taking a step back and seeing your life from an holistic level can really be a gamechanger. I believe that we are all here with lessons to learn..some of us…
Yeah Im from a culture where past lives aren’t even questioned. Im guessing most commentors here are western or Christian or Athiest... so the skepticism is going to be extreme. But really when you try these things the effects on your health can be amazing.
Not just America, this is reverbating around the world. The increase in nationalism and the sexism/racism that is coming to light. Its happening all over the world. I’m hoping the silver lining is that this is going to make us take some serious action at the intolerant/hateful parts of our society.
Seriously what can we do? I’ve already signed a petition about it today. I do not want him going anywhere near something that could be as amazing as Wonder Woman or just another objectified/sexualised/mle gaze heroine.
Ask him what he thinks of other public figures and report back.
We need to compile a list of all the famour/poular men in the public sphere that give us this feeling. It would be great to see how many we can tick off in teh coming years. Because seriosuly so many give me the creepiest feeling, so many that are well loved. I can’t even say anything because i have no proof other…
Exactly, what is it with this narrative of “i had no choice but to cheat” or seeing cheating as an accident. I just don’t get it. Like if you have a crush or attraction...well whatever. It really is all about ego and entitlement at the end of the day.
I’m in my 20s and have never been in a relationships...and I just don’t know how you ladies do it. I’ve never met a guy who didn’t have some or other sort of sexist/entitled etc. behaviour. And I guess luckily for me I grew up in a time where I had access to the internet from a young age, and I could read forums and…
