Is it controversial to support something "Directed by a Woman"?

I've never seen such sentiments here. More interesting is that it is directed by, stars, and is about, a feminist.

I was surprised by how much time he spent on that, as if it meant something. Although he does reference something that is interesting: when men bring up men's issues they get accused of derailing gender topics and being whiny. But when women bring up men's issues they are generally accepted. Look at the success Chirstina Hoff Sommers, and the Honey Badger Brigade have had.

Not sure why this is downvoted.

This is actually pretty valuable to counter "this film is a MRA advertisement narrative"

[–]rg57 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

You're right.

From his (very long-winded, self-congratulatory) post:

I am not an MRA. I do not particularly like MRAs.

He doesn't really explain why except to point out that MRAs didn't defend him some times. MRM is not an organization, but a philosophy and movement. You don't get a card when you join. So I don't really see the point of rejecting it based on events.

[–]alrun[S] 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I bet we will see articles in the future slandering the documentary, its director and the MRA to reduce credibility.

Its fearsome if your feminist stereotypes might be shown in a different way and that there is an alternative movement on their way.

Cassie was unable to find funding within all her contacts that were previously able and willing to produce documentaries, that were controversial, but this time all backed out.

Here bruh, I got you.

[–]Man-jusri 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I'm kind of concerned about his name is going on as an associate producer credit. His internet commentary confirms some of the worst stereotypes of the MRM. And I'm not sure that it's going to matter that he distances himself from the MRA label.

[–]secv808 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I'm sure there will be plenty of criticism, both deserved and baseless, when the film is released so I don't worry about it. If there isn't a massive attempt to bury the documentary I'll be genuinely surprised.

[–]raxical 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Who gives a shit if it was directed by a woman? Wtf?

[–]gruffbillygoat 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I don't mind Cernovich but...

Dude, MRAs didn't defend you because you are not really a big deal and pretty much nobody had even heard of you.

Ask for help if you want it

[–]doinggreat 0 points1 point2 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I still have no idea who this dude is. But I was surprised to see funding for the film jump up so suddenly.

[–]DillipFayKick -1 points0 points1 point 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

I am impressed with Mike. I didn't know who he was until yesterday on #bigmilo. I do sort of recall some of the /r/mensrights folks calling him an asshole sometime in the last year but I always like to judge for myself. Went and bought his book too.
