What I don't get is that certain gun loving men used to like seeing women with guns in the media. Now the very same kind of guy finds the idea of a woman with a gun threatening, especially in films. It's like it's empowering for men to have a gun, but seeing women with guns is disgusting, these days.
Just a difference in execution. Men loved seeing women in action roles back in the day because it was about the strength and competence of the character's writing. Their gender is irrelevant if it doesn't require their sexual characteristics to progress the narrative. These same people don't feel threatened, they feel insulted and object to incredibly amateurish writing and grade school character development combined alongside an obvious agenda.
So when they object to those things, the Left immediately throws labels at people claiming them sexist, bigots, threatened, etc, when that isn't even the case. Why? Because they so desperately desire "equality", "representation", and the hatred for the white man to be propagated and reinforced that they'll dismiss the utter incompetence of writing (the actual problem) and attack those who recognize it in order to be able to do so.
Yup. I can't believe there's actually categories in Neflix for movies/tv shows with "strong female leads".
If I'm looking for some entertainment I want to know if the show/movie is actually any good - I couldn't give a rat's a## if it has "strong" female lead characters.
Problem is, feminism has been taken too far. Females were undoubtedly underrepresented in the past but now the balance has moved past the equilibrium point and MEN are now the ones struggling!
Anyway, on topic I just saw the latest (and final) trailer for Dark Fate. To be fair it does look like it will be a good movie unlike Batwomen which is man-hating at it's finest without ANY quality whatsoever.
Yep, I think it sound like a pretty solid game. I'm more interested in the single player than the co-op though.
Just be warned in single player some of the bosses take almost forever. They are made for multiplayer and gearbox does a horrible job at scaling anything for single player. The rest of the game is very manageable solo, but some of those bosses.....yuck.
