Not sure what other people writing much more detailed and nuanced things than you did, but happening to be in agreement, has to do with you choosing to contribute a meaningless platitude.

If you don’t like ladies night, take it up with the men who thought it would be a great way to get women to come to bars so they could ogle them and get them drunk—they invented it. Ladies night exists because of sexism against women, regardless of whether it feels bad for men that drink prices are unequal.

I’m not trying to start a fight. I just couldn’t fathom why someone would think such a captain obvious statement needed to be seen by other people, unless they thought said other people didn’t know/wouldn’t agree.

Are you under the impression most women, especially feminist women, wouldn’t have agreed with that all along?

Are you lost?

Why would you assume that? There’s a reason she used the word “threatens”, specifically. Of course rich kids are often going to find ways to get out of it, because that’s how capitalist society works.

I absolutely disagree with your second paragraph, in terms of equating those two groups of people, given their vastly different histories and present experiences with inequality and discrimination.

And the chief reason that women weren’t among those “drafted soldiers who fought in wars on [our] behalf” wasn’t that they were lazy or entitled or delicate, it was that men didn’t believe they could or should be.

Oh, look, a handful of famous anecdotes who don’t even necessarily disprove what I said! It’s weird to me how proud people like you are of what basically amounts to...not being smart.

And I’m saying it’s not that it isn’t there, it’s that you don’t see it, because your overly literal, simple and self-centered way of thinking is rendering you incapable of grasping nuance and making inferences.

Oh, you don’t. But you’re clearly convinced that’s everybody else’s problem rather than your own, so we’re done here.

If that’s your takeaway, I’m fairly confident the problem isn’t the trailer, or anybody else’s efforts to explain this it to you.

I already answered your last question, so I won’t address that, but the point is that a trailer/movie/whatever doesn’t have to explicitly say “this story is about gender” (or anything else) for that theme to be present.

Really? Not trying to be snarky, genuinely curious. Girls and women who choose traditionally “male” pursuits are treated significantly differently from the men in said fields/hobbies, and also experience ostracization from men and women alike for eschewing dominant notions of femininity.

It’s funny how gender playing a role in elections/politics was only noteworthy to many people once it could be (arguably mis-) construed to be helping a woman, rather than holding her back.
