I know you’re coming from a good place, but when men say stuff like that this is what we hear:

Yes. And yet, I want a pair. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I like Get Waisted. I also think we could go with Elegantly Waisted and use the INXS song as the jingle.

YES. Or British-Indian. Echoes of British Imperialism subverted. How great would that be? These actors MUST be out there.

YUP. I just remember thinking, at the time, that even I found 200 years old to be not particularly impressive; why did she think these kids who lived daily with building from the middle ages would be astonished? Their faces basically said, “Yeah? We have public toilets that are older than that! So what?”

Yes, we would. And, as you said, rightly. But while these look like two very comparable situations, they really aren’t. The power differentials between men and women in society are vast. Women are still routinely considered to be only as valuable as they are deemed attractive. It’s a false equivalency argument.

No, but he could be a British dude with Asian or Spanish heritage. Actually, given the current make-up of Britain, a Bond with Asian Subcontinental heritage would make perfect sense. But that would REALLY blow some minds, wouldn’t it?

Yes, well, the CAR is actually important to the character. and driving a manual is character development: it shows his, idk, need to be in control? Sure, that works. The point is, really and truly, the right car is more important, from a characterization stand-point, than the color of Bond’s skin.

Also, sorry, I now realize that I’m at least the third person to go there in response to you. Which just proves the importance of Gerardo’s intense artistry, I suppose?

Obviously, people have not researched the history of the word “suave,” which was coined in 1990 by Ecuadorian artist Gerardo. All previous Bonds have been too white to be suave. For more information, please see his seminal film, embedded below:

When I was in middle school, we hosted a Russian exchange student. There was a whole group of them who came together, and there were various educational/social activities that they would participate in as a group. One was tour of the state capitol building. On those kinds of tours, the FIRST question the tour guide…

Wouldn’t that be a mercy?

Ooh!

Again, i’ve already been corrected, it’s an pretty easy mistake, to keep pointing it out after i’ve addressed it is a bit rude

Yes, i’ve already been corrected, my nerd cred is shattered, yiu’re just rubbing it in now

Why did i think he had married Pansy? I was sure of it.... huh. Eh, still works. He doesn't have to be married to her for it to be their thing.

No, including the possibility that women might enjoy the male form as PART of why we should watch a trailer for a Shakespeare adaptation is not reducing women to idiots. Amazingly enough, many feminists believe that we can be intelligent and knowledgable and care about politics and global issues AND be comfortable…

Zoot is clearly checking out the hamhocks in that gif.
