As a Social Justice Warrior, I take offense at that picture.

As an admirer of the female form, I'm somewhat confused by that picture.

Got the clap again?

Whenever you think about how 'stupid' or 'unfair' all these social justice initiatives are, you should ask yourself 'would I want to be a woman in any persistent context?'. I think not.




Maybe some of the things that are done are unfair. So what. Life is unfair, quit being a little bitch about it.

Eh, I think I have a better answer...

Because weak characters are usually boring and typically drag any sort of media down regardless of their gender.

In other words, he has a good reason to make a female character good... it (usually) makes the overall story better!

Q: Why do you torture them half to death all the damned time?

Real answer is that Whedon was raised by a single mother that was a strong person, and that scrambled his brain.

You have your own answer as to why he writes strong characters... therefore you wouldn't ask him the question in the image... I see nothing wrong with that.

*e2a* it also begs the question... Since such writing results in better story lines, why is it uncommon enough that someone asks him why he does it?

He's an excellent writer but he's not the only one in the industry....

He did have one of his male characters tortured by someone played by Nathan Fillion as well.
:hmm:

Yeah, seriously. That answer he gave was terrible. The implication is that if sexism went away he'd no longer be interested in writing interesting women...

Which I think couldn't be further from his actual intentions. Sometimes people get so fixated on making their enemy look bad that they lose sight of the stuff that's actually important to them. And a lot of these people end up being called SJWs (or MRAs or bigots or what have you on the other side)

I for one appreciate his stories and characters, I think he generally does a good job with them, both male and female. I'm personally tired of seeing so many movies where women only serve as the love interest/goal (yes, that means I agree with Anita Sarkeesian on something) and I like a lot of movies where this isn't the case, especially if they're not also hamfisted about social issues. But I think we got this way because people - everyone, men and women - generally feel safer with and more compelled towards exceptional men than exceptional women. Where "exceptional" means people who are both unusually good or interesting as well as people who are unusually bad or dull. I could get into a long explanation as to why I think gender dynamics ended up that way but I don't really want to subject people to that unless they want it >_>

We should do this then let go of this guy arms at the last second, then all go for a beer or something.
