A continuation of my previous article. These fantasy fiction or otherwise entertainment offerings have certain hackneyed tired old female characterizations. They are not actually renegade trailblazers. They are just sl-ts.
It is always, but always, some general useless disgusting social rebellion. When I say "social rebellion," I don't even mean rebellion against the looming, foreboding "society." I mean that they are simply going against their family who only loves them and wants what's best for them. They are doing nothing more than engaging in useless trash. Drinking, partying, screwing around.
Guess what. That's not rebellion. That's just self-destruction. That is it. That is destroying your liver, your kidneys, destroying your delicate endothelial linings of your uterine system. You are not helping yourself in any sense of the world. You are in fact harming yourself.
I've seen some dumbazzes on the internet say stuff like, ""ohhh they are challenging women's stereotypes of being stay-at-home-moms," or some sh-t like that.
Uh, no, they are not. Again, let me refer you to diagram B. They are doing self-destructive crap. There is no benefit to what they are doing to themselves. There is no benefit gained for themselves, and there is no benefit gained for the greater "society."
A recent pop culture example is that "brotherhood of the wolf" movie," which featured a requisite wh-re character. She was the only significant female character in the movie. If they had just left it at being a fortune teller, that would have been at least interesting. But nope, they had to go and add the h--ker part. Pink and lil kim and the other females portraying prostities Moulin rouge. Dido and that trash filth morbid-joke inferior-replacement-of-a-human-being apparently celebrating violence against women. And these types always try to defend it with some crap-azzed reason of why this is somehow better than actual renegade out-of-the-box strategies.
Even on the rare occasion in which the author serves up a female character that does hail from another ethnic culture, all she does is have sexx with some dude from the mainstream culture. That is pretty much all that the fictions offer. That is the extent of the female's contribution to positive social change.
These female characters are never written to effect any actual useful social change. They are not renegades, trailblazers.
The anemically few times we see alien females, they are portrayed as sez objects and nothing else. They are not written with any personalities to speak of, they have no goals, no hopes and dreams, no ambitions. They have no careers, no education, no hobbies. They are nothing more than their body parts. They are simply pieces of meat. On one of the newer Star Treks there is this really pretty blonde lady that is an alien or robot or something called "Seven of Nine." Guffaw. Give me a break. Other than a small piece of metal on the upper part of her face, there is absolutely no other indicator of her extra-human super-human status. She looks like a typical "hot," sexy, boring, personality-free sex object wearing a skin-tight formfitting body stocking, with no personality nor IQ that reaches triple digits.
In a disturbingly large number of books, this is the norm. The weak, simpering, excuse-for-strong female is never written as doing anything genuinely revolutionary. She is never written as overthrowing an oppressive religious regime. She is never written as truly honestly challenging a family or societal structure that is abusive, domineering, criminal especially to women. Newsflash -- being a stripper/whore/etc. is not overthrowing religious fundamentalists or abusive families. All that is, is destroying one's own medical and emotional health.
If there is an abusive political regime from a nearby civilization (har har) that has beaten down and enslaved the people of her own culture, she is never a badass commanding a renegade military group to overthrow those slave-mongers.
The females are not effecting any genuine good political improvement. Not rousing the people up into a sociopolitical movement that could lead to greater sense of community and better interaction. Not organizing the community into better cooperation, or working together towards a common goal. They almost never usher in positive social change.
