The Protective Male

I recently noticed that films containing violence to women are labeled misogynistic by critics, but critics do the same to films depicting women as manipulative bitches or murderers.

Of course, films that show weak, pretty women that just scream and get in the way are old-school misogynistic as well. Am I missing something here? No wonder Hollywood only portrays women as silly and unrealistic heroic 'ass-kickers' lately. The brainwashed and fiercely feministic audience and critics are dumbing down our movies.

As an example, I saw a French movie where the girl lied about being raped in order to manipulate her loving boyfriend to murder a guy who has been making sexual advances on her. Then she has sex with the victim so she can hold him down while her boyfriend stabs him. What was disgusting wasn't the movie (no surprises there), but the reviews. I read about fifteen reviews, three of them called it misogynistic, another six called her merely 'sexually aggressive', and another two or three called her murdering but innocent-like. No, I'm not exaggerating - I counted them.

Sometimes I wish I could switch to another species.

The irony is that it's mostly men saying these things. Like the movie G.I.Jane said: It's not the women that's the problem, it's us. We can't stand seeing our women dying, being abused, or being portrayed as monsters. I realize that we have a genetic need to protect our women but this is getting ridiculous.
