Calling all MRA's...

So a few women mindlessly wittering about shopping and makeup for a few hours would pass this shit yet princess leia isnt feminist enough. Bollocks is all I have to say on that

It isn't that Leia wasn't feminist enough, but about the film as a whole. You had a bunch of male characters to choose as your role model if you were a boy, but not so many female ones if you were a girl.

Now what is the context here? You have a wide trend where it is rare for two female characters to talk to each other about anything except men in films on one hand and some four cinemas in Sweden are drawing attention to the fact on the other.

Why rage at the second more than the first? Again, it ain't Leia, it's that she was THE female character.

The Bechdel test ain't perfect in every case, but it's a valid general indicator.

And the Manosphere rages as it always does. If it were 60 years ago, they'd be blaming their failures on dark skinned people getting equal rights. Well, the ones in the US at least would be.

Seriously, if you think you're actually pissed off about four Swedish theatres, you're probably pissed off about something you don't want to think about and feminists are not your problem.

I don't think anyone is pissed off except Dave, but he's pissed off about everything

I've never seen it, but I love that Lords of Acid are on the soundtrack.

The soundtrack is about all there is to love about it.

But the song will exert an attraction to the actual bugs...

One night, they will attempt to find the song by crawling into your ears as you sleep...

BTW, there's no apostrophe in "MRAs".

Well as Audley stated it wont effect lesbian movies but what the fuck. Any mention of feminism nowadays gives me PTSD or PSTD or PDST or what ever it is called. Is it too much to ask those in power to get a fucking grip. All joking aside I have noticed in the 'manosphere'a growing anger at this shit. When is this shit going to end as. I mean thanks feminism as we men are all rapist, thugs, pedos and creeps, Can you tone down your hatred for males just a little bit as don't you have fathers, brothers, sons, grandads, lovers and husbands. Seriously what the fuck is wrong with you. I will support equal rights till the day I die but feminist can blow me the fucking evil man hating scum they are.

Relax.

I don't think there's enough drugs in the entire universe to relax Dave.

I've got an aversion to just sticking an 's' straight onto the end of acronyms. Without some indication, it's not clear whether the 's' is part of the pluralisation or is part of the acronym.

Being lower-case usually does the trick...

That's just another of the BSs foisted upon us by grammar Nazi's.

some acronyms (or partial acronyms) have lower case letters too.

Well firstly Dave, it's not a Governmental demand, it is four cinemas in a part of Sweden notorious for hipsters and other cliché'd "right on" types. Secondly, it matters not one fucking bit. Hollywood is not going to start changing it's formulas just to pander to a clutch of androphobes and their desperate toadies. Shit it's hard to get them to even have a black man with a white sidekick in an action movie.

Most people, men and women, just get on with life, point out occasional unfairness and expect that it will get noticed and change over time. People like the victim feminists and MRA's are lashing out because they are emotionally crippled by circumstances, because they are useless, know it and project their self loathing outwards or because they are mentally ill. In some cases its all three.

In any case, nothing about the OP matters to anyone outside that small area of Sweden. Relax.

I do see where you are coming from and I like your posts here more then anybodies else here. Though in the last three years I have seen the nicest most decent men destroyed by the family courts and one great mentor of mine accuse of peadophilia on the most hearsy of hearsy grounds. I really I'm losing it with the gynoccracy as there is no level they will sink to, to destroy good men. I have to stand by while two good friends of mine committed suicide and another is in jail on well no evidence what so ever. Another 11 of the are now druggies or alcoholics, how long should I hold my peace? How long should I not care for my friends? How long should I avoid not being calling a misogynist just because I'm not prepared to stand by any longer? I have let them down for so long now that I'm ashamed by my previous behaviour (I brought into the feminist bullshit) well no longer. fuck them if I hear a feminist I will tell her to fuck off the fucking twat. If I meet a white knight mangina I will laugh at the castrated gobshite and mock the friendzoned piece of shit. Enough is enough and fuck feminism and all who sail on her.
