I'm glad I didn't ruffle any feathers. *phew* I'm always afraid of that when talking about controversial things, especially over the internet.<br />Don't worry about it, there are definitely some feminists who deserve a little criticism. There are some pretty weird and ungodly people out there. <br />Yes, the right to vote and live how we want just like men, just like, well, people who live in a free country, is a right for both women and men. I'm not American (I'm Canadian actually) but yeah, you guys have some pretty sad options for president I must admit. :P We've got Justin Trudeau though, so we're in the same boat. XD<br />Anyways, politics aside, yes, definitely check out some Marvel or DC movies and tell me what you think of the girls. Unfortunately they don't have many girls in the films so far and they are often not as cool as the comics, but I still find them super interesting. <br />I shall do just that and you're very welcome!Emily Mundellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01996417090806539667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-71233367363266324182016-04-14T17:55:58.019-07:002016-04-14T17:55:58.019-07:00*nods approvingly through the entire post* I feel ...*nods approvingly through the entire post* I feel you, Rebekah. ;) <br />Stereotypes are soooo annoying.

Every one is enti...I enjoyed reading your opinions! Every one is entitled to different ones...I'm not offended in the least! :) <br />Thanks for sharing! I realized AFTER I posted...isn't it annoying that you find all your mistakes AFTER posting things?...that I came across as really harsh and judgmental towards the feminists. Sorry about that. *guilty smile* <br />I agree with your version of feminism...namely that "feminism should be simply about equality and freedom" I'm totally with you there sister! ;) <br />I like the fact that we have the option to vote (not that we WANT to vote...considering our current options. *rolls eyes*) and to choose what kind of life we want to live, and like Jesseca commented, I think if a young lady is single she should by all means help out her family in any way she can...and if this means getting a job away from home, well *shrug* she should do so. <br />As to your other disagreement, I have to admit, I have only seen pictures of women super heroes... so that may be why I have a prejudice against them. :) After watching a few movies with women super heroes in them, we'll see if I change my mind. ;P<br />Thanks again for the comment, and I hope you stick around! ^_^4rmeddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00261666077481922005noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-24879404134281378692016-04-14T13:11:56.050-07:002016-04-14T13:11:56.050-07:00Nice post, Rebekah! I just found your blog through...Nice post, Rebekah! I just found your blog through Jonathan Trout and I thought this was a really interesting read. I agree with most of your pet peeves here, arrows and bullets should logically run out, love triangles almost never work out well, Bible verses should NEVER be taken out of context and perfect characters are...well, annoying. :P<br />If it's totally alright by you I'd like to present my different viewpoints on numbers 8 and 9? I don't mean for any of it to be offensive in any way and hopefully it's okay if I leave some of my more contrary thoughts here for people to stew on? <br />So number 8, I kind of totally disagree just cause there are some pretty fantastic superhero women (I think anyway). I'm a bit of a Marvel nerd, though by no means an aficionado, and many of my favorite characters are the girls. Take Jean Gray from X-Men, she possesses immense telekinetic and telepathic power on par or even greater than that of Professor X. Then there's Scarlet Witch, also from X-Men, who can tap into mystic energy for reality-altering effects, so she can basically manipulate reality. I haven't come across any guy superheroes with the kind of power these two possess. :P<br />Plus, there's so many others, Storm who controls the weather, Mystique the shape-shifter, Rogue who sucks away the powers of other mutants, Emma Frost who has great telepathic powers and the ability to turn into a diamond, Zatanna who can basically do anything as long as she speaks it backwards, Kitty Pryde who can "phase" through objects, and many others. Even Black Widow, who may not have any true "powers", I enjoy a lot as a character because she goes toe-to-toe with those who are much stronger than she is and is willing to fight on the side of good, despite her murky and oh-so-interesting past. There are lots of similar female characters that are also admirable in that, like Sharon Carter and Peggy Carter and Maria Hill.<br />Anyways, I know that was super long and nerdy, but I just think that there are some pretty epic females AND males both in the comic world and I feel like they can all be enjoyed by females and males alike. I do agree with you about the immodesty thing, that's pretty annoying and pretty bad in the comics especially. The movies aren't as bad in comparison at least.<br />And as for number nine, I do understand that you're referring to radical feminists here, and yeah, I totally agree. Some people take the ideology way too far, as anyone can do with anything I suppose. It's a shame really, because there are elements of it, as far as I understand from like-minded people anyways, that are far from sinful or un-Biblical. At least that's what I believe. <br />I think at the heart of it feminism should be simply about equality and freedom, and not equality as in "I can do whatever that guy can do" cause no, we girls aren't often able to do all that a guy can do. But living in a free world and a free country I think enables us as women and men to pursue our passions and desires in any capacity. Of course we need to be responsible to each other. We should also respect that, especially in the family unit, we each have roles, but we should be careful not to close ourselves into little boxes. I don't think that's what God wants since he made us all diverse, as individuals and groups. That's what makes us interesting, kind of like characters in a book even, haha!<br />In any case, this is a super long comment and I'm sorry for that, I wasn't meaning to get on a whole big spiel and I hope you don't mind. <br />I'm one of those Christian feminists you mentioned above, in a sense. I don't fully identify with the entire ideology but there are certain elements I can agree with. So yeah, I guess that must make me one. :P<br />Anyway, now I'm just rambling a lot, this was a really cool idea for a post, especially when relating it to writing, perhaps I'll steal it one day if that's alright by you? :)<br />Emily Mundellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01996417090806539667noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-68133754165223765432016-04-14T13:07:54.783-07:002016-04-14T13:07:54.783-07:00Thanks for the comment!

Oh...This was a really fun post to read, Rebekah! :)<br />Oh, it drives me crazy in movies where everything gets destroyed! Especially in super hero movies when the whole town gets ruined!<br />Perfect character are kind of annoying. Nobody's perfect. I've never read the older Elsie books, but I have read the newer, adapted ones. I like them, but it is a little annoying that Elsie is so perfect. <br />I would enjoy reading another one of these posts!RebekahAshleighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02357042870422732001noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-63333732563424334702016-04-13T16:11:39.068-07:002016-04-13T16:11:39.068-07:00Well, if I can help just one person escape the evi...Well, if I can help just one person escape the evil clutches of "alright," then the splinters from stamping on that rough soapbox will be worth it. ;)Rebekahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09588760551371274833noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4757317209230743989.post-25452640625188877782016-04-13T14:19:29.591-07:002016-04-13T14:19:29.591-07:00Thanks for giving me YOUR opinion on the above pet...Thanks for giving me YOUR opinion on the above pet peeves of mine. :) I liked reading your comment. <br />Yes, I think I'll probably do another one towards the end of this month.

1. Yes. ...I'm just going to go down the line...<br />1. Yes. Agree. And as far as perfect PKs, the only one you'll ever meet is leaving this comment. *dripping with sarcasm. Pleeeease realize that* :)<br />2. This drives me simply insane! Particularly with Legolas and I was just thinking that about him just the other day. Ironic. lol<br />3. Do they REALLY need to destroy the entire room? COME ON!<br />4. Yuck. Need I say more?<br />5. There is no such thing as a perfect human (except PKs, right?) so why have a perfect character. Drives. Me. Nuts.<br />6. You totally sound like a PK in this one. I totally feel the same. Got it from my Dad. :P<br />7. Agree.<br />8. Agree.<br />9. I don't get it at all. I mean, because women have to push and push and push now even females who don't want to have to go to war can be drafted. It's so messed up!<br />10. I have sent so many texts and comments that have to be fixed that I want to turn off auto-correct. Grrrrrr.<br /><br />I really enjoyed this post! I'd enjoy another! I may or may not do a pet peeve post. Many of them would be similar.
