It's cheating to use Christmas audiences as a measure of how diverse the audience is. A lot of those people, men and women alike, were dragged there by family. If this was released in May like SW films usually are, the attendance ratio would look a lot more like the prequels.

Well my girlfriend wouldn't have went to see Star Wars unless I went to see it. Her two sisters still haven't seen it yet and I don't think they plan to.

That's not anybody's fault though. Until very recently, franchises like Star Wars have been very heavily male. Leigh was just as important as Rey in 1977, but women just weren't supposed to be interested.

also, Disney marketing this to hell and back to everyone, as well as the current trend of "durr nerdy is cool" and "I'm smart because I subscribe to pop science" no doubt has a lot of previously close-minded fuckwits actually giving sci fi a chance.

Well there are exceptions to every rule but I'm willing to bet about 75% of the women that saw a trailer for Star Wars didn't say to themselves "wow I'm definitely going to see that!"

Look at it from my perspective. I've been lifting for 6 years and started back during a time when it was the social media thing to do to "fit" in (no pun intended). I'm actually really strong and jacked but I don't consider it an amazing achievement and I try to keep myself humble and refrain from posting shirtless pics all the time like some vapid numb nut who hangs his egoistic hat on his physique.

Then these bitches come along once they realize "the guys" are starting to take to fit culture more and more, pick up some light weights for a month or two, start resembling health and then think it's time to start spamming pics on Instagram and lecturing people on their newfound "knowledge."

It's a pretty aggravating development. It's very clearly because they have vaginas and men are perfectly fine with letting them have their ego boost as long as they keep posting ass pictures.

I have a theory that when a meme becomes too strong, it affects the real world. Like some sort of collective thought materializing itself into reality.

If SJW can argue that a fantasy based on Middle-Age Poland folklore can have black people because it's a fantasy so it doesnt have to be realistic, one might argue that since Star Wars is a fantasy too then it could be populated at 100% by white males.
That said, people that think SW is anti-white because it has now a black hero should just end themselves

Imagine a life where you have never been great at anything, never felt the urge to be great at anything, never felt that magnetic admiration to someone who was great at something, wanted to imitate and ultimately defeat him. Just nothing. Literally all you do in life is exist. Occupy space. pass the time. You're a chick.

You're bored,tweeting about your fucking hair and not even feeling any kind of happiness from it, just soothing your constant need to be bitter and cunty and petty toward other women. Every single thing you've done in the past year was mundane, shallow, and boring. You spent the last six hours reading kinda-interesting Reddit stories about people who made interesting Halloween hats for their kids or some stupid bullshit that you think is interesting and you may say is interesting but you're not really sure if it's really interesting. You're just fucking sitting there, gestating, fermenting, with a moist hole between your legs that guarantees you'll at least never have to get up and move around and work to support yourself.

And then you see men, over in some corner, having fun. You've never seen this before. What are they even doing? Instead of their consciousnesses merely sitting in their thick skull and revolving around itself, they are imbuing their conscious energy and intentionality into external objects, crafts, goals, projects. All the bitterness and cuntiness you feel nonstop seems to be absent, as they congratulate each other for being victorious, and happily learn from someone who defeated them. These creatures are truly content to be alive. They have found purpose in a purposeless universe.

And your gaze turns back on itself, on your self, and you realise you've never had that. You can never have it. You're just a stupid cunt.

So you get up, you walk over there, and you fucking ruin everything. Just ruin the whole fucking thing. The five seconds of attention you get will be worth destroying it. Because you're a woman.

They were never "slaves". The had all the opportunities to get a career in the 50s, and many did. The difference is that many (the majority) were also okay with being stay-at-home moms, taking care of the children and getting food ready for the husband when he came from home.
Now being a housewife is seen as oppressive and some form of muh patriarchy.

Stop drinking the feminist koolaid. Women in the USA were *never* oppressed at any point in time. And no, not being able to vote is not real oppression. American white women have never known oppression.

That doesn't mean women were considered property. Women in common society in America have always been treated with respect. I think it was Einstein who commented that American women have their men on a leash so to speak.

You see, in the past, people used to respect a father's judgement about his daughter. In actuality, the bride's family had more to gain than the groom's and that's why dowries were paid. Women were never treated like chattel in this country.
