To be fair, people are less likely to notice they are being lectured in art if it's well made. The problem with modern shows isn't that they're woke, it's that they're shit.
By the way you have defined it.
In reality, countries where women are victims of FGM, child bride marriage & are denied education it's not "legal to be a woman"
I'm assuming this about abortion but this is unironically the entirety of the NHS. "are you dying right now? wait 12 hours, mmm, you're not dying right now, well here's an appointment, we'll see you in 2033"
We have reached the point in the culture where they are writing buddy cop fanfic about The Great Gatsby, filming it and airing it.
You've run out of ideas for cops shows, the well is dry.
Could have at least done Anne Shirley as a hard-bitten gumshoe.
I really hate the way this conversation is infantilized, you can't have a conversation about the built-in abuse in the industry, the outcomes for both women trapped there & the impact on all women without someone saying "just say u think its gwoss & icky & go" like a toddler.
On tiktok they said the only good bit of purple rain was the bit that went viral on there. It's so over.
They do, they just think letting her die is the appropriate punishment for women's objections to groping.
There was a case years ago of a man who consented to be eaten by a cannibal. The cannibal got life in prison for murder.
Someone may consent to violence or murder if they wish, but that doesn't & shouldn't change the assault charges you get afterwards.
I'm trying to phrase this carefully because I think it would be helpful if Caroline withdrew this particular tweet
The implication here is that women's consent, or even their requests, should carry no weight. I think that's quite concerning. Ethically speaking.
I have refused

It's not abuse if an adult doesn't get treated like a small child on their birthday. You seriously have absolutely zero real problems if you call shit like this abuse.
Nobody who claims the illness is a mental issue has ever had a good argument for why someone would choose to suffer & be bedbound for decades, then choose euthanasia. If it can be cured with a few sessions of CBT.
Why Beth Dobbin would go from Olympic athlete to bedbound.
TW: Assisted suicide
“She did not want to die. She wanted to live. Just not like this.”
Report on the devastating impact of severe #MECFS and how more and more people with severe ME are choosing assisted suicide in Germany.
I hate this take, many of us got auto-immune diseases as children. It affects women more because there's no research done on female health issues like this.
No, you didn't get MS or Ulcerative Colitis because of female rage, you got it because no one researches why

Arguably my favourite of this

Why does this trigger people so much? I remember feeling so uncomfortable on so many occasions as a child because I didn't want to be hugged. Why does it make you so mad to respect children?
