That's because I'm not blinded by my own opinions. I mean, I have my ideals, but I learned early on in this forum that my ideals are simply that, my ideals.

I also understand that a lot of what many feminists see as anit feminism or anti woman are not. I don't necessarily believe in coincidence, but in something as mundane as a movie or book, I think that some of the female roles and characters just have things happen for the sake of the story and not necessarily because they're women.

For instance, I'll use an old stand by: Jason isn't killing the nude girl on the pier overlooking Crystal Lake because she's a girl. He's killing her because he's Jason, and he get's his jollies by killing people.

I maybe a righteous feminist, but I'm not stupid.

Plus, S, I know better than to pull that shit with you.;)
