Most of my checks were no-brainer equality picks. It feels like this quiz exists just so Buzzfeed can try and insist that modern feminism is totally worth it and sensible by taking egalitarian beliefs and putting them under a different name.

The wage gap between new employees and experienced veterans is ridiculous am I right?

If the movie has to pass the Bechdel test does it mean romance and marriage movies would not be allowed to exist in a Tumblrina world?

Yeah but the women being dumped would have to talk about the men and their relationship at some point. Even that is ruined.
Then again the test is supposed to be for stories where the female leads' drive for plot isn't a relationship, leave it to tumblrinas to turn it into the "good for feminism" test.

Nope. They don't have to dump anyone. Just have the family who's disgruntled and mad talk about how disgruntled and mad they are that their son is gay.

Then in the end they get their comeuppance and the audience bursts into applause.

But how do they know it's happy if they have to then have an example of what's sad
Or is safe space so strong being sad is only a thing you do when you break up or get mad over the evil oppressive forces

The test is flawed and excludes a lot of good movies with strong female characters, going against its purpose.

But at the same time it is kinda dumb if you have a single female character and force her into a love story with the male protagonist even when it doesn't make logical sense to. It's a decade old now, but House's first season takes one of the only prominent female leads in the show and gives her a story arc where she's consistently pining for House's affection, convinced that he secretly loves her and is just trying to hide it by being snarky.

You have to admit something like that is sloppy regardless of the gender.

I might just be burned out on how most stories in film and TV throw romance into it even when there's no point.

Well, that's the purpose of the test; but people took it to a proportion that romance movies, whose ENTIRE PURPOSE is to make you root for the love story to go right, are suddenly mysoginist. Yes, there are movies within that genre that cross the line, but the genre by itself still has the right to be.

Agreed, CAV. Bad writing is bad! It's like having the black character in a film be the "street smart" one who spews out horrid slang every chance he gets. The thing I don't agree with is making it a political issue rather than a "we-deserve-better-than-this" issue

I wonder what movie makes you say this.

It's all about context and realism. If it makes sense to do it, exercise caution.

I saw Mortal Kombat Annihilation recently (I know) and I found out the hard way that people have a difficult time writing for black people. Jax is... a poorly written character to put it lightly.

And the part that said "Women should be able to apply for the job if she fills 60% of the requirements" ruffles my jim-jams. IF YOU ARE UNFITTING FOR A JOB, YOU SHOULD NOT GET IT.

It's what I like to call a "feelgood-solution". As long as people can find comfort in thinking that they're doing the right thing, it's all the same to them. They either don't care or are deluding themselves about the actual source of the problem.

It's not too different than people in my art course that think they can life off of insightful pieces about social justice and nothing else. It's called a fad guys, museums will find the best guys in that subject(probably already have) before you guys leave uni.

If you say so...

This one in particular offends me because I love calling all my friends "dude" regardless of gender. Not because I hate women and their pronouns, but because... I like saying it. So stupid...
