We don't have enough young, female antiheroes. We don't accept women as antiheroes the way we do the men.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There are so many male antiheroes but not nearly as many female antiheroes.There's a lot of pressure on female characters to be likable. That puts a lot of pressure on women to be likable.
I always thought that there was nothing an antifeminist would want more than to have women only in women's organizations, in their own little corner empathizing with each other and not touching a man's world.
We seem, as a culture, to start to adhere to these antiheroes and have grown tired of the traditional, straight-up-and-down good guy.
In our civilization, men are afraid that they will not be men enough and women are afraid that they might be considered only women.
Many societies have educated their male children on the simple device of teaching them not to be women.
I've never been anti-women.
In the adjustment of the new order of things, we women demand an equal voice; we shall accept nothing less.
As societies continue to loosen their standards regarding what is appropriate female and male behavior, I think we are going to realize we have not only underestimated women, but also men.
I don't think feminism is about the exclusion of men but their inclusion... we must face and address those issues, especially to include younger men and boys.
We should cease thinking about men as the enemy of children and women.
