So I guess if you're just mad at the posters, then I'm totally with you. But if you're at all talking about the show, then I semi-disagree like I said. It's a story, there are no feelings, just the story and whether it was quality or not.
I have no memory of the Smurfette principle. I'll admit I only know about the becktel test from my ex-girlfriend. Who was VERY feminist and taught me many of the concepts and terms (she was a good person). She may not have covered that part.
My response was a reaction to the sentiment behind some of the post. I'm not tryig to critiq the way the show has been written.
In order to pass, the film or show must meet the following criteria:
It includes at least two women,*
who have at least one conversation,
about something other than a man or men.* (T.V tropes
)
Eh. Not mad, not really.
OFF TOPIC AND NOT RELATING TO HOW I FEEL ABOUT THE WRITING
I'm still learning a lot about feminism myself
. I don't want to come off as someone who has spent years learning about it, I still do and say problematic crap all the time. Yea, I wanted Cheetara to be with someone who supported her. I wanted to see her be with someone with whom she could feel like an equal, and I felt like any relationship with Lion-O would always be about Lion-O. In the end, if she would have chosen Lion-O and we never got to see why he would be a good choice for her, it would still be wrong to say she made the wrong choice as far as feminism goes.
