This show has made made waves as of late (even breaking records for the most watched show on Netflix) and there was an untenable amount of misandry in it.
Of course spoiler warning.
All of this is off memory and I watched the show a few days ago now, but if I recall:
- The phrase "patriarchy" was forcefully inserted into 2 scenes; in the first, Xavier pushed Wednesday out of the way of a falling gargoyle and saved her life, and then she went on a nonsensical rant about the patriarchy and chivalry making him save her, and the 2nd; when she joined the Bee club, Eugene went on a tangent about how Bee colonies are the only in the insect/animal species which is led by a female, and perceded to say something like "suck it patriarchy" (paraphrasing, forgot what he said but it was something along those lines)
- Xavier was explaining to Wednesday something about her visions, because his dad is a professional in the subject, and then she said he was "mansplaining" to her
- She wore a dress to the prom and she said it was an object of the male gaze in response to her date saying she was beautiful
- Her mother killed her stalker and the father was almost falsely imprisoned for it because he took the fall, and when she was talking to the mayor about exonerating him she said that "men don't know what it is like not to be believed" because she had reported the stalker to the authorities before the murder took place and it was never investigated
Of course, almost all of these instances were offhand comments for comic relief and served no purpose to the story, they are used to break tension and I find a lot of "feminist" moments in media fall under the same category (see: Brad Pitt apologising for mansplaining in Bullet Train and Channing Tatum going on a tangent about being a feminist after helping Sandra Bullock in Lost City). So they are forcing in these lines for none other than woke points and to suede the audience while trying to incorporate them naturally into the dialogue, but in the end it just feels forceshoved in. A lot of the misandry in movies and shows is usually more subliminal, but it feels like it is becoming more and more in your face; this is just what I have noticed though.
What do you think?
