In a way it's funny to see people bitching about Game of Thrones. It's like no matter what. anything this show does people will always get out and bitch about it.
 
They'll probably love it now, since that first episode was chock full of strong, independent womyn who don't need no man...even when their actions make literally no sense at all.

Yeah it doesn't make sense until they beat the final boss and wake up in the asylum along side baby doll after an appointment with an ice pick. Maybe I'm just confusing it with sucker punch.

Yeah, I usually visit the largest fan-forum of ASOIAF once or twice a month just to laugh at the sperging about how "bad" the show is (and yet they always keep watching instead of waiting for the books - go figure). The funniest comments have some wild non-sensical accusations of misogynism / racism / whatever-ism and the whining about female nudity is just golden.

The show did screw up quite a few things and it could have been better but it's still a great show.
 
Late to the party here, but holy fuck, TMS actually claimed the nanny's death in Jurassic World was sexist? I can only guess that mosasaur was suffering from internalized misogyny.

As for the theme of alleged sexism in JW, I say the clickbaiters are bullshitting again. Claire's entire arc has her transition from a prettied-up exec in high heels (and the only reason that even became a meme is because the movie explicitly addresses her high heels' impracticality) into a perspiring heroine who 1) saves Owen from a pterosaur by shooting it and 2) personally luring the T. rex over to help fight the Indominus. That's not exactly consistent with a barefoot-and-pregnant ideology. Granted, the dinosaurs are the real stars in these movies, but I noticed they're all female again in JW despite the presence of male dinosaurs in TLW and JPIII (and their implied presence in the first JP). Which would make the climactic battle basically a group of females bringing down another, female antagonist. How much more feminist can you get?

I don't think this came from TMS, but I saw someone who is likely a loyal reader bitch about how the boys didn't want to go with Claire after she saved Owen. Evidently they missed that Claire not only was practically a stranger to them, but when they saw her earlier on she completely blew them off instead of taking the day off. I'd refuse to go with her too after that, if it was me. But no, everything is sexist.

As much as how nude mods are rather trite and offer jack aside from fap material, those sort of mods could no doubt have a warning such as saying it's "NSFW" and "adult only", especially if they are put on something like the Nexus. Even then, searching for these mods doesn't mean a "nude Chun-li" mod becomes part of the results, not unless you use the search filters. Beyond that, some of the modders for all we know could be a woman and not some straight guy. Besides, the mod community itself can already have its own form of autism so it's not like one can expect a safe-space if you had modders get uptight about things like "paid mods" and drama over a patch being labelled as a "mod".

Of course this site will have stuff to say about the #giveelseaagirlfriend debate, but its the comment section that is the real fun. There's debates about wanting Elsa to be asexual or arosexual, to be a poly lesbian/bisexual, or just don't want her in a relationship. Though I would love to see this happen just to watch them foam at the mouths.

I never understood why Elsa has to be lesbian, asexual or any of that beyond shitty self insert porn/muh representation.

So why should we give a fuck about something that ain't going to happen?

Do you really think Disney wants to invite controversy?
