It hasn't bothered me in a while since no one generally talks about it anymore, but all of the sudden I see this argument pops up again and I finally feel the need to rant in public about it ( Read more... )

THIS. THIS THIS THIS. Oh gosh, I love this post. I have been feeling the exact same way, and I thought I was the only one.

I'm specifically referring to people who made the feminist argument, not for people who didn't just care for the episode.

I guess you could say I'm a feminist, but I generally don't refer to myself as such because of the territory that comes with being a feminist. There's no gray areas. You're either not or you are, and I'm really not fond of such extremes. I'm a feminist, in that I support the empowerment of women with equal rights, not some ridiculous mantra that females are the greater sex and they should be elevated or the opinion is invalid.

Thank you for saying this, I often feel exactly this way.
