Women don't have to be in any movie part they don't want to. Nobody forced anybody at gunpoint to take a role or film a scene they didn't want to.

Art reflects life. A large proportion of films are made about real events, based on real events, or inspired by real events...and guess what? Men have tended to be the people doing the majority of those significant things from inventing and fighting, to being famous thieves and murderers; so it's not surprising that more films have men in them.

I think this will change over time, but women were only emancipated 40-70 years ago.

It also doesn't help that the reason that men are more likely to do significant things is because of the way intelligence is distributed amongst the male population. Men are more likely to be geniuses or complete idiots, while women are more likely to be of a middle intelligence.

>you're criticizing society for rating those movies highly

Or am I criticising society for rating the other films as poorly as they do? Praise isn't fungible. Liking a film is not in itself a political statement. But you can view choices in aggregate and draw conclusions from that. If, as the image suggests, the conclusion is that films which primarily feature men, in which women are disproportionately sexualised, and in which women have significantly fewer speaking parts are favoured above other kinds of movies, that certainly suggests something about society, don't you think?

The second one is extremely subjective and misleading. Women wear sexually revealing clothes ALL THE TIME in modern culture, even at work. It's fucking normal. That would actually be an accurate portrayal of culture.

But again, it's also very subjective because what someone considers revealing might differ from what another person considers revealing, so it should have been left off completely.

>>64688676
>the bechdel test is written to be used on an individual basis

I'm trying to think of any similar test, which could be applied on an industry-wide level, which wouldn't involve the test being applied to individual films. I don't think it's possible.

What I'm saying is that it's entirely uninteresting if Das Boot fails the Bechdel test. It tells us nothing. It's equally uninteresting if Jessica Jones passes it.

Where it gets interesting is if we take the top 50 movies, the top 50 TV shows etc, and see how many of them fail the test... that starts to become potentially illuminating.

>dont call it a test if its supposed to be general. honestly this is why i cant take feminist seriously.

>A study released last week by USC’s Annenberg School For Communication & Journalism provides some stats to put these high-profile titles in perspective. Examining 500 top-grossing films released in the U.S. from 2007 to 2012, the study considers some 20,000 characters and finds diversity is sorely lacking. “Across 100 top-grossing films of 2012, only 10.8 percent of speaking characters are Black, 4.2 percent are Hispanic, 5 percent are Asian, and 3.6 percent are from other (or mixed race) ethnicities,” the paper notes at the outset. “Just over three-quarters of all speaking characters are White (76.3 percent). These trends are relatively stable, as little deviation is observed across the five-year sample.”

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_the_United_States#Race_and_ethnicity

>Non-Hispanic White 196,817,552 63.7 %

>Non-Hispanic Black 37,685,848 12.2 %

>Non-Hispanic Asian 14,465,124 4.7 %

You do realize art isn't like real life right? People don't have to enjoy things exactly in accordance with real life population ratios.

People hate chick flicks because they suck, like The Notebook. The term "chick flick" is used to refer to shitty romantic comedies usually. Its not because they star women its because they suck.

I'm gonna be honest, I find it really weird how quick SJWs are to say the word nigger. Its almost like they're dying to say it and wait for some context so they can claim its ironic.

If women really want to watch female led movies then they need to start. I cant control women.

> And yet you're clearly trying so hard!

I'm not trying hard. Feminists constantly make themselves look retarded. I literally dont have to look for it, it just shows up on facebook.
>>
>>64689095

SJWs online don't count. Actual Mexicans couldn't give less of a shit, and they see the most movies per capita of any ethnic group in the US.
>>
>>64689095
I'm not claiming Mexicans have literally never complained but I'm saying it isn't common. I never seen complaints in the mainstream media. You had to dig up an article on a mexican-specific website.

>>64689136
That's a bold number you just pulled right out of your stinky pinata José.

>>64689117
>I'm gonna be honest, I find it really weird how quick SJWs are to say the word nigger.

I will also be honest: I strongly suspect that you have never before in your life thought anything of the sort.

>I'm not trying hard.

Ah, now. Lies make baby Jesus cry.

I know, right? Imagine how deep their under-representation must go.
>>
>>64681217
% of women writing, producing, funding, and spending years of hard work and effort on these movies? Maybe 1%
>>
>>64688822
The movie aliens completely shits on your 3rd grade religion. Tipley might be the best action hero ever and her being a woman in no way affects that, negatively OR positively just like it should be. Compare furiosa from mad max to her and its just fucking sad. All your psycho babble philosophy about inclusion and statistics is just a masked beg for a handout and pity money. Feminism is basically political prostiution.

He's factually right

>>64689175
No, I have. I've seen SJWs use it similarly to how you did, where they claim its ironic but seem oddly comfortable saying it. It's rather strange to me.

> Ah, now. Lies make baby Jesus cry.

You're right, feminists are literally never retarded in public or in any form of social media. There is absolutely no reason I could ever dislike them. I rescind all my points.

Wait, an outlier negates a trend? Tell me more about your theory of statistics, if you don't mind spilling the beans before you inevitably publish.

No they just arent cunts and understand hard work earns results in a way whining and begging doesnt.

Mmm, no, I'm gonna stick with my gut and say you haven't.

You see that, man? What you just wrote? That there is TRYING, son. Trying really, really hard.

well, okay. I really dont know how to argue with the logic of "I experienced this" "No you haven't".

Not really. Typing a couple of sentences isn't really trying. Maybe it is to you though.
>>
>>64689209
Its not a statistic faggot lrn2read i said ripley was possibly the most badass hero of all time because shes not a feminist charity case of a character. Shes just a well written character who happens to be a woman and forcing shit makes it bad.
>>
I just don't take actresses seriously. I hardly even see a movie because of a leading lady, and I find ScarJo to be uninspired and just a slightly prettier Drew Barrymore.

Also they age like shit and only old British actresses are worth any screentime.

I know. Maybe you can rewind and address the point that was made, then? The one that made you go into a flap and reach for your smelling-salts because someone said a rude word. It's right there in >>64689047

>Not really. Typing a couple of sentences isn't really trying. Maybe it is to you though.

Ooooh, sick burn. But yes, again, you are definitely trying.
>>
Id like to know what they consider partially naked and revealing clothes.

Yes, it is.
>>
>>64689415
Amy Adams and Anne Hathaway are enough to convince me to see a movie, personally.

>>64689436
Your point was that women are biased against women. I dont think thats the case. What proof do you have that most women hate women?

> Ooooh, sick burn. But yes, again, you are definitely trying.

I wasn't trying to burn you, where did that even come from? Do you actually consider typing a couple sentences trying? I'm being serious, because all I did was make an offhanded comment. If I had written a paragraph, then you might have an argument, but it was just a couple sentences.

Honestly, why are you on 4chan if you're a feminist? Don't you know what this place thinks of you?
>>
>>64689191
honestly though there really are hardly any Mexican characters

Name five movies made in the last ten years with Mexican leads. I honestly cant. I can name countless movies with black leads but Mexicans not so much.
>>
>>64688906
There are actually no conclusions drawn in the OP image, but I think that poster was referring to the fact that people consider Hollywood to be sexist because of stats like those. People falsely think that if women aren't represented just as much as men, it could only be because people hiring them are being sexist.
>>
>>64689538
>Your point was that women are biased against women.

Yup.

>I dont think thats the case. What proof do you have that most women hate women?

Get those fingers out of my mouth, man, I'm allergic to Cheeto-dust.

It won't let me post links because it thinks they're spam, but if you go ahead and google 'internalised sexism' and 'study' etc, you'll find plenty of stuff.

>I wasn't trying

Dude, the more you type, the more you try. The more frantically you assert your dispassionate indifference, the more obvious it becomes how deeply involved you are. This is basic self-awareness that should have been socialised into you at a very young age.

>Honestly, why are you on 4chan if you're a feminist?

I was here when all we did was laugh at people who cared about stuff. So a bunch of blow-ins decided to make it their personal hugbox - I'm leaving? Nah. And as a bonus, whole chunks of the site are now a place where, whenever I feel like a little light trolling, all I have to do is say exactly what I actually think. And people get HOPPING fucking mad over it. Fish in a barrel.
>>
> It won't let me post links because it thinks they're spam

No they won't. There have been threads posted in this link before. I guess it depends on the source. You made the claim, the burden of proof is on you.

>>64689950

Could I not say the same about you? What do you want me to do, stop replying? Arguments work because people keep responding to one another.

I even tried subbing in 'dot' and 'slash' where appropriate, still no dice. But hey:

http://lmgtfy.com/?q=internalised+misogyny+study

Results 6 and 7, both pdfs.

>Could I not say the same about you?

You could, and I'd agree - I'm definitely trying! See how easy it is? All you have to do is not proceed under a cloak of paranoia that prompts you to reflexively reject anything the other person says!
>>
>>64690223
None of that last sentence really applies to me, I havent rejected anything. Ive simply disagreed. You sound more paranoid than I do.

You get on me for rejecting, but you're the one that flat out denied I had an experience that I know I have (of SJWs being liberal with the word nigger).

kek

>>64690421
you do realize most of that was me disagreeing with accusations you threw my way? Did you expect me to just agree with all of it?
>>
>>64690492
>you do realize most of that was me disagreeing with accusations you threw my way?

Most of it was you scrambling to deny that you were 'trying' to do anything, that you in any way cared or were emotionally engaged. As I explained to you, the very action belies the statement. But because you're so fixated on rejecting anything I say, you couldn't let go and even be like, OK, I'm in the argument, if nothing else. I'm actually engaged.

You couldn't seem to bring yourself to say that. It's pretty funny.
>>
>>64690637
I mean if im engaging in a discussion then I guess im engaged. i would never think of some 4chan comments as someone being particularly engaged though.

i dont know what you want me to say

im not angry or anything
>>
>>64690703
>I mean if im engaging in a discussion then I guess im engaged.

There you go.

>i dont know what you want me to say

Ideally, you'd say something like: "So I found those studies you mentioned - I see that internalised misogyny is, if nothing else, a theorised thing that many people believe exists in the real world. I haven't yet had time to review the evidence and fully consider the arguments, but I'll certainly work towards forming a concrete opinion on the matter in the near future."

It would be a bit much to expect you to add a coda about how you will, at least for the moment, stop pointing to audience gender ratios as prima facie evidence that no element of gender bias can be read into box office returns. But I'd be happy to infer that from the above paragraph without you having to come out and say it.
>>
>be born a male
>understand maleness
>create art that reflects life of experience with uniquely male feelings and wisdom
>this art is catered to men and well received among them
>this is sexism and lessens the value of women
Could someone explain this to me?
>>
>>64690930
Women are jealous creatures
>>
>>64681217
>trusting these statistics
No thanks.

most movies with majority female casts are really boring and niche.

if people dont want to see the movies, then its just human nature.
>>
>>64681313
This.
And OP's image is retarded.
>>
>>64691461
b-but it has fancy graphics design
>>
>>64681428
This guy speaks the truth.
>>
>>64684329

Cause in >>64681217 it fucking cherry picks from 500 films in 2007 to 2012, no source, no links, no fucking list which must be extremely hard to complie since everyone's top movies changes from person to person.

Also I don't know if it includes foreign films which country it includes or not includes,sorry this study is shit, this pic is shit and get over it.

If they can't post the list they aren't confident and they haven't watch the fucking films at all.
