well it's important that you say "female human"

after all, you're looking particularly sheepish today. We need to clarify your movie preferences are those of a female human and not a female sheep.
I'm sorry, I've probably offended someone. You're not a EWE.

It's not. That's what shallow idiots say about things where women have power or physical skills *NM*

I can only speak for the film, which was not feminist.

But that is exactly what feminist means "it could have been a boy just as well"

Why would I consider it to be femenist?

I just don't consider feminism as something that has to be radical.

To you "feminist" is a dirty word? To me, it means acceptable. Differences in definitions I think

It's fairly derogatory as a noun, though, have to agree with Vivien on that one.

I don't think Jens was really using it that way, though

Of course he didn't intend it that way, but that's how it sounds.

You are rather exaggerating just how "fussed" anyone did get, you do realize.

Oh, so now we're using 'dislike' instead of 'should'. It's funny how you fell back on that.
