I thought this week would be way more fun, with the back and forth shit-slinging on this movie, but it really just is the movie no one wanted or asked for. And the news cycle is feeding the general need for scandal and drama with real actual scary events.
Things like "Grrlpower" and "Movies aren't Diverse Enough!" are peace-time obsessions, tolerated and toyed with by a bored and under-stimulated population. But when things get genuinely fucky out in the real world, this stuff seems like small concern.

Because it is. When shit hits the fan, all of the "but that's not what girls are supposed to do" and "real men need Feminism" and "men in women's washrooms?!" bs goes out that window.
You do what you can when you can and you get treated with respect for it. We all breathe the same air; we eat the same, drink the same and shit the same... I'd rather have an lgbtqia individual from my neighbourhood watching my flank than be alone in the metaphorical foxhole.
