   Another iteration of this I just heard was, "Lots of people won't like this because sure they talk about - and use the word - 'patriarchy,' but then they go on to specifically criticize men!" 🤡
   
   And honestly, that's why I typically avoid using words that make things vague (just by virtue of how they've been used especially in libfem-associated mental gymnastics), primarily patriarchy, femininity, and masculinity. Sure the people who usually wouldn't listen to me still won't listen to me. But at least there won't be ambiguity as to what I'm talking about.

     @GalacticTurtle Men think feminism is women voting, having their own bank accounts and leaving the home without asking permission from a man first.

     @Fenuin Gendies typically just refers to the trans cult.
     
     Null is short for nullification. So if you had a nullification surgery, the goal is to legit look like a Barbie between the legs. So having nothing. Doesn't really work out like that but that's the goal.

     @GalacticTurtle Just watched the trailer. Definitely getting a strong feminist message. In fact, I don't quite understand why trans people think this movie is about them. Look forward to your thumbs up or thumbs down once you've had a chance to see it!

     @Fenuin There is a TIM Barbie in the film so maybe that's why. Personally I just assumed he'd be presented as a "normal Barbie" rather than "Barbie with a dick" since none of those dolls have a real anatomy lol.

     @GalacticTurtle Ah okay that starts to make sense of it for me, thanks.
     
     So many words I am learning here. Null-non-binary? Gendies? I feel a google rabbithole coming on!

     @polarisera @GalacticTurtle I was in a theater, sitting close to a group of guys, when "The Girl in the Spider's Web" trailer came on. When the line came where it was something like "you're a woman who hurts men who hurt women" they visibly got annoyed. It was dumb. I don't understand why they would take it personally lol...but they probably chopped it up to "another female empowerment movie where they make all men evil" (even though in the movie she's protecting a little boy the whole time, but they don't show that in the trailer).
     
     I just have a feeling that any movie that comes out where the woman is even slightly badass, guys like that will discount it as some feminist propaganda film.
