u/stanlee1951,

Your post, by itself, does not fit. But it gets tied and wrapped up perfectly by u/lurkerhasarisen's comment. Because of his comment, this post will be allowed to stay. For future reference, please make sure to address why said issue leads to men leaving, going their own way and women asking WAATGM.

The main problem here is the wrong view of "empowerment" as an excuse to be an asshole.

There is a YouTuber named Kevin Samuels that address this to women callers. He has a phrase “Women, put your dick up” where he addresses no high value man is going to put up with a masculine woman.

Totally agree with the main character points--i noticed it too

That being said, i was waiting for godzilla and king kong to destroy shit. Which they did, so i was happy enough with it

Ya gotta pussy-foot around the politically correct crowd, or listen to the whining. Never call a spade a spade.

Thanks for the heads up mate. Was going to make the mistake of watching this just to pass the time since I heard that the battles are well done, but no way I'm willing to sit through bitchy "empowered" masculine female characters who are being propped up on a pedestal just because of their vaginas. Saw enough of that in Star Wars the last Jedi and even avengers endgame, really brings down the movie.

Thanks again for saving me from that BS!

Haha , it won't be surprising if the next movie has a queen Kong .

They think being an asshole is being strong. They are force feeding this notion of a strong woman but I think they get confused about what that is. Judge Judy is a strong take no shit woman. Not a bitch. Megan Kelly - same. They should just follow that. All this blowhard female bullshit just makes them intolerable. Same if there were a man behaving that way. I’m gonna check it out now just to see these insufferables.

My take is this is an effort to have women be not "damsels in distress" by movie writers/directors/producers. The "solution" they have contrived to have women be "empowered" by being completely rude and bitchy, which either is because of writer incompetence or a desire to buck gender norms by trying to masculinize women. Not that they are succeeding at masculinizing women, but that is probably intentional as well.

As much as woke politics hates it, a good portion of women if not most of them are going to be far more the damsel in distress than the "empowered" woman. Women are simply less strong than men, both physically and when it comes to dangerous situations mentally as well. I recall many cases reading where women in under pressure situations such as combat or disaster areas where they mentally collapse under pressure. The reason for this is a lack of testosterone, as to no ones surprise they have less of it. It is not the fault of women that they have less of it, that is just biology.

And it makes sense evolutionarily for women not to need testosterone like men have, as women going into dangerous situations means far less sustainability in population. A small number of men can impregnate many women and replenish a population, the same does not work in reverse. Women not going into dangerous situations works quite well to keep them alive when considering long term populations.

Besides, women absolutely love the gender norms of the damsel in distress in stories. Just look at Twilight. Very popular with women. The main character Bella basically does nothing and gets saved by her love interest. So if this writing of female characters is trying to appeal to women, we already know that women are just fine with the damsel in distress characters.

You just t stopped me from wanting to watch the movie. It’s “pushed” on migtowdottv, although you apparently need some side program to be able to watch it, but if I’m going to be indoctrinated or preached at as to how stupid, docile or evil I am as a white male, I’ll pass.

Thanks.

Gaiinahat · 2021-04-04T06:37:01+00:00

Thanks for the review. I'll be passing on this one.

Dls95405 · 2021-04-04T12:59:03+00:00

It's appalling. It's pure delusion to think this will go on much longer without societal collapse.

legend_kda · 2021-04-04T21:04:41+00:00

It’s really pathetic how they’re even try to indoctrinate kids, they constantly have that girl from stranger things act like she knows everything, while ripping on that fat kid for no reason.

ScrewJita · 2021-04-04T22:56:46+00:00

Ermmm. You should really give the movie another shot. Yes, I also noticed the "super capable snarky female" trope all over the movie. But seriously dude, made it all worth it. It's rare to see a movie now that makes the bullshit "worth it", so enjoy what you can.

TheJerkTit · 2021-05-07T16:29:12+00:00

The next Indiana Jones will have tits and use a tampon string instead of a whip.

Modern movies are crap

ViciousDextroShade · 2021-04-10T03:59:35+00:00

Thanks for this post, I was thinking of watching this but now I won't waste my time. Expect to keep seeing this sort of crap from Hollywood until they face serious competition or go bankrupt. Somebody needs to give Ben Shapiro's studio a massive cash infusion so it can be a proper counterbalance to leftist Hollywood.

CaringVisual · 2021-05-21T09:25:18+00:00

Well now you know how asian american dudes feel for decades. Always the backdrop character that either serves to be the 1) oppressor to Asian women who needs to be liberated/empowered by white protagonist, 2) killed as fodder, 3) castrated minstrel man.

Welcome to the club, complaining isn't going to do anything. If anything im glad this is happening so maybe ppl in the future will be more mindful of what they presume to be shitty Hollywood stereotypes
