. . . more misogynistic portrayals of women who can’t do anything and who constantly need men to save them.

well I so apologize on behalf of all men. It is all men’s faults that men are on the average bigger and stronger than women, thus making them on the average better in a fight. All men should feel guilty and apologize for this.

We really shouldn’t be getting into this type of discussion,

yeah, I thought about putting my previous above reply in the political thread in the off topic section and posting a link to it here, but I thought that may violate the spoiler rules.

but I’m not saying it’s all men’s fault or something like that. I am a man after all. And sure, men are typically stronger than women. But this is a fantasy film after all, and when the force is involved, your gender shouldn’t matter. Not to mention you can beat someone with things other than brute force.

but how big and strong someone is, inevitably has an impact on that someone’s ability in a fight.

And no, I’m not asking you to be guilty or apologize, but I think it’s ridiculous that we continue to see such disparity when it comes to the gender of heroes in Hollywood. About fucking time we got a female Jedi in a Star Wars movie.

I have no problem with female Jedi in a Star Wars movie.
