The only time I heard the word uppity was in reference to the Mr. Men character Mr. Uppity, who was a rich bastard.

There’s nothing groundbreaking here, but when so much of society seems incapable of understanding the basic meaning of the word feminism, it’s great to hear someone bluntly point out that the real feminism of something is in being “for everyone.”

I'd like to believe this, but sites like yours perpetuate the whole feminism is for whiny privileged white women.
 
Y'know, sometimes The Mary Sue has some rare, halfway decent and inoffensive articles, like the one calling Jared Fogle a POS for trying to weasel out of his crimes, articles about random shit like cute fictional cats, and just anything that doesn't involve whining about radfem first world problem bullshit.

Unfortunately, that's almost all of what they produce, which is a shame, as there are a few glimmers of sanity and reason in that shithole......it's just drowned out most of the time by bleeding vaginas who have anxiety attacks over a man spreading his legs on a bus.
 
Still watching Jessica Jones, so I still stiffed through it.

Honestly, I think OP wrote this because she is a fan of Kilgrave because it's David Tenant, and feels guilty so she wrote this rambling article. The thing that really pissed me off is that she compares Hannibal to the likes of Edward Cullen and Christian Grey. Yeah, they're all sociopaths, but at least Hannibal is actually written as one (plus he's a great cook).

I love Hannibal. I love Kilgrave. Not because they are attractive, but I love a good villain. I wonder if being a fan and having a crush on female villains is "problematic" because they pull a lot of the same shit that male villains do.

Hell, there are even some villains I sympathize with, not because I find the characters attractive, but because different people have different viewpoints and opinions.

I'll go even further and say the author and people like her are absolutely guilty of sympathizing with attractive male villains for that reason and is basically trollshielding for it. I don't think they'd feel the same about female villains, not only because muh Feminism, but also because they wouldn't give a shit about them because they can't jill to them thus they wouldn't feel the need to write pointless articles pretending they aren't guilty of exactly the same shit they're condemning.

Also, who the fuck woobies Hannibal? Last I checked the fandom was well aware he's a terrible person.

Hannibal Lecter is a really easy villain to feel sympathy for. Despite the cannibalism, he's usually polite, erudite, and capable of incredible charm. Worse, you can forgive a lot of crimes since he, in his own words "prefers to eat the rude". Also, some of his enemies are even worse than him and lack any charm themselves, so he's easy to like despite being a monster himself.

The issue with SJW hiveminds like TMS is that they are stuck between a rock and a hard place, with their dogma being that all white cis males are evil, yet, as mentioned above, Hannibal is very easy to sympathize with despite his own evil, so we get a tortured attempt at justification that sounds like someone desperately trying to not commit wrongthink while still rationalizing their wrongthink.

"How to Get a Girlfriend", to me seems like a tongue-in-cheek look at little boys view love and relationships. Kind of like "Kids Say the Darndest Things" in book form. But to this writer, this book and the Peanuts Movie are pushing "heteronormativity" on kids. How dare her son enjoy the idea of opposite sex romantic relationships and the guy getting the girl at the end.

"heteronormativity" is a good insight into sjw "thought". They want to be an oppressed minority and somehow be the ones on top of the pyramid at the same time.
 
FFS, knock it off with the evil "heteronormativity" crap, SJW hive-mind.

If you're so damned progressive, then you can see the beauty in any two people falling in love with one another, right?

So why do you have to always make it your preferred coupling or else it somehow doesn't count?
 
It annoys the crap out of me how much they over analyze kids movies.

How come they don't give the same treatment towards movies for adults? Oh right...

It's the "get 'em while they're young" philosophy SJWs inherited from religious and nationalist zealots. The patriarchy is brainwashing our fragile, malleable children and we need to brainwash them back.
 
Your average militant activist, whatever their cause, does not subscribe to the "never attribute to malice what may be stupidity/coincidence" school of thought.

Thier cause isn't unpopular! It's being actively demonized!

People rejecting it aren't simply uninterested, they're X-phobic!

Media that doesn't specifically include them isn't just not aimed at them, it's normative propaganda!

My social unpopularity isn't because I barge into other's activities to make them about my cause! The public is just a bunch of uneducated sheep that need brought into line!

ANd on and on and on it goes.....
