Am I wrong? Republicans hate that Hollywood is largely left. What is wrong about the statement? I'm not saying they're justified. I think any public figure has the right to express a message to an audience that they believe to be able to make a difference.

This just adds fuel to their "Hollywood elites hate us!" message. Except that she's not a Hollywood elite.

I legitimately don't get the big fucking deal with the Wonder Woman screening. IT IS ONE SCREENING! It's a fun, harmless idea that does not affect 99.9999% of the population, and yet, people have their knickers in a twist because OMG I'M A MAN AND I WANT TO BE A PREDICTABLE CONTRARIAN AND TRY TO GET INTO THIS SCREENING OF A MOVIE I CAN SEE ANYWHERE ELSE IN THE WORLD.

They literally VOTED FOR a hollywood celebrity. They don't hate it. They fucking hate it when anyone tells them how shitty they are as humans.

Well, yeah, exactly. They're hypocrites, we get that.

Although I'd be pissed as fuck if the only celebrities that shared my views were Tim Allen, James Woods and Ted Nugent.

The issue that most people, on both "sides", have is that we often see the other "side" as unreasonable. Which... a lot of times is true. People refuse to move or adjust their opinions for some reason. I don't know if this is a thing that's been going on for a long time... but it's quite frustrating.

I don't see how it's silly to get upset over women only Wonder Woman screenings because they can just watch it somewhere else? That's literally how people have justified discrimination of non white people and gay people throughout history. But since it's men, it's okay.

I know it's just one little thing, but society shouldn't have anything "men only" or "women only" any more than they should have "whites only" or "blacks only".

WHITE MEN CAN NOT BE DISCRIMINATED AGAINST.

It's literally impossible, you buffoon.

Because white isn't a race and male is not a sex.

You are a white man.

I do not think that all white men are treated unjustly. Some certainly are, though. Anyone can be treated unjustly for all sorts of reasons. But it is not my nature to be a victim and blame others for my problems.

People just claim that feminism is about equality, and I fail to see how women having sex selective screenings of a movie is equality if it would be considered sexist to have men only screenings.

Holy fuck. It's not a women's only theater, you fool. Why do you even give a shit at all? Do you also go to every bar near you and complain about "ladies night"? Or are you just that dim?

No. It's one thing to have ladies night, but is a man for some reason wants to go he should be legally able to do so. It's like how you don't have to be black to join the Black Student Union and you don't have to be Asian to join the Asian students Association.

It's totally okay to have a women centered screening, but if men show up they should still be allowed access. It's one thing to have an event aimed at a demographic, it's another to use legal force to keep everyone outside that demographic away.

This is essentially... a girl inviting all her other girl friends over for a slumber party... and then a fucking idiot man thinks "why wasn't I invited!? DISCRIMINATION". No, you're just not invited. Don't be a fucking dick about it.

Public place where no one will be sleeping over is exactly the same as a private party where girls will be sleeping. Oh wait.

You're right that it's fine as long as men are technically allowed. But the way the press has been covering it seems people think that men would have security called on them if they tried to enter.

Would it be okay with you if they had "Boys Night" men only screenings of Star Wars the last Jedi?

Ok then. The issue here is the wording in these articles. I do not personally give a shit. I am the king of not wanting to rain on others parades, even my close friends and family.

Stop reading articles and actually go to the source and read. https://drafthouse.com/nyc/show/women-o ... nder-woman

Yes, they want it to be all women. No, they can't legally enforce it. But this is literally no different than any private owned company doing an "event" night. Lots of baseball parks do a Star Wars night, but only assholes show up wearing Star Trek shit.

I can't figure out what she thought the upside of this was going to be. The only thing I can think of is that she thinks any attention is good attention, but did she think CNN wasn't going to fire her? Did she think the left was really going to get behind her on this one? If she did she's a moron.
