Femdom
The other day I learned the word FEMDOM (Female dominance), which is quite popular in the Jupiter Ascending fandom. Then I came cross this Feminism/Geekery blog. The blogger wrote an article called "Jupiter Ascending: The Re-Gendered Space Opera". In her opinion, Kaine Wise (obviously she didn't check IMDb page, it should be Caine Wise) is the "Manic Pixie Dream Girl (MPDG)". She wrote:
"A MPDG lives for the main character and the stunningly attractive Kaine lives to help Jupiter reach her goals at the exclusion of his own reach their goals at the exclusion of his own. Of course, aside from his desire for wings and a disdain for nobles, Kaine doesn’t have much in the way of life goals."
I guess the blogger totally ignored the fact that Caine took the task from Titus because he wanted to repay the debt he owed to Stinger. Also I don't see Jupiter Jones has any life goals either. This article is an example of people tend to only see what they want to see. And keen Femdom advocates are the main reason I cannot fully enjoy my experience in the JA fandom. It feels like the 2011-2013 Merlin fandom, especially after Gwen on that show became the Queen. Some people do have "Queen Complex".
