angry feminist time!

Do I really have to explain why a flowchart labeling all the ways female characters can be unacceptable and inadequate does not belong on a feminist blog? Really

That flow chart was unbelievably terrible. The internalized misogyny in this is terrible. I'm getting so sick of people putting down women in the name of feminism.

I've been doing Lady Love posts on my journal recently and I've had a break from doing them for a little while because I've been busy lately, but I plan to finish off those posts soon.

Yeah, I should get back to my "top ten favorite female characters" list sometime soon.

Second post I've seen on this flowchart today. Not sure if I want to look considering all the rage it's inspiring; the last thing I need is to rage out before nine in the morning.

I've actually spared only passing glances at the chart itself. Just from what I've heard about it, I know I don't want to read it in depth.

second time I've seen it, second time I haven't clicked. every other site on the internet already makes me rage enough.

you are wise.

Yeah that graph annoyed me for various reasons, some of which you have just mentioned.

I don't understand the purpose of this chart.

[annwyd]

Supposedly, the purpose is to illustrate how sexism in the media makes all female characters inadequate.

It comes off more like the "female character tiers" dreamed up by misogynists on 4chan, though.
