Yesssssss. My head was nodding so much that I think I pulled a muscle! I really appreciate the acknowledgement of the nuances on this issue and not only discussing Nicki’s decision, but analysing why she did it and the negative repercussions that her actions have on society and people’s perception of her.

We have achieved Peak White Feminism

I would like to deeply apologize for the above comment. When I said “so long Jerkbags”, I didn’t mean to imply that the rest of you are, in fact, Jerkbags. I was suffering from exhaustion at the time and have deep respect for the Jerkbag community.

Wait, we’re allowed to opt out of it? Finally. So long jerkbags!

God did I feel the same way. I totally ugly cried when she was able to fight back competently. I broke out it goosebumps and get teary just thinking about how there are going to be so many little girls out there who are going to want to grow up to be Rey. And that is the best thing in the world as far as I’m concerned!

Ray is the character I made up so I could play Star Wars with my brother and his friends because my friend always played Leia.

The very first spoken words of the film are “This will begin to make things right”

Nah, Finn is gonna end up with Poe

There’s nothing wrong with a talented man abandoning the work force to support his wife’s career, or prioritizing hers over his own. Unless he too is a Jedi, her job is, in this series, more important than his.

I FaceTimed with my 5 year old nephew after he saw the movie, and he said “I want to have the Force and fight like Rey!!” Seeing him idolize a female character in a sci-fi action movie literally melted my heart into 100 tiny feminist pieces.

As a little girl I had to play Leia when we played Star Wars. Now, she’s a kick ass character, but I still had to wait by the elm tree until I was saved from the Death Star and I still didn’t get a light saber. After that I had to make do with background Jedi and 4-comic runs of Shaak Ti. So...when Rey caught the…

I took my 7 year old daughter yesterday. She laughed, cried, and cheered her little heart out. She loves Rey and the look of sheer joy and awe on her face when Rey piloted the Falcon was something I won’t forget seeing. She told me on the way to theater that boys at school told her that girls couldn’t like Star Wars…

Saw it last night and adored it. Rey and Finn are a fantastic duo and Daisy Ridley deserves a lot of credit for how great it was. She has a very expressive face and she used it well.

My husband thinks this is heresy, but I liked the new movie better than “A New Hope”, even as I acknowledge how much it owes to the older film. The dialogue and plot was just more enjoyable.

I love how molesting a bunch of little girls (mainly his sisters, one of whom was only 5) is not as bad as the cheating. Raise your hand if you’d much, much, rather you found out your spouse cheated on you than sexually abused a number of kids? I might be hurt about cheating, but I could see working past it. I would…

It could have been worse. Remember that time Miss New Jersey ripped the crown off the head of Miss Rhode Island and then it exploded?

Each separate part of this story would be weird enough on its own.

you would think that he would back after his friends THOUGHT HE WAS A TERRORIST.
