A delusion, perhaps.

Inclusivity and diversity are generally American values.

No. She's whoring for attention. I can see how you confused the two

Exclusion and inclusion are both American values. Exclude as many for as long as you can do so, and then let everyone in so they'll think that it's something great even though it's been watered down, or wasn't that great to begin with

This isn't a study on all comic books and I realize that, I am only posting it due to the last few posts.

And my made up numbers were closer than other peoples made up numbers.

There doesn't need to be any resistance to these developments, guys.

Some of the absolute best characters in the superhero universe are women. There is nothing wrong with inclusion, so long as the writing remains strong.

I'll counter some of the incorrect intuition we've seen in this thread with some of my own: I'm guessing the dudes disputing this are often just old. If you're old, comics were run by men, written for boys, and largely monolithic.

If you're under the age of 40, however, you'll see that the growing female boon in comic and comics films sales have been growing like gangbusters over the last 20 years.

And, honestly, if any part of you like comic books and comic book culture, you will have women to thank going forward. Because women are the ones who will save the industry.

In your opinion, what’s the difference between that and drawing attention to a lack of diversity in her career field?

Alrighty.

I'm sorry. I'm a dance, monkey, dance person. I don't want to hear the political or religious opinions of any actor, musician, or athlete that I agree with. So I probably don't want to hear some spoiled girl cry because she's paid millions of dollars to play make believe for a living either that I disagree with

In comix Marvel has female dominated stories for decades. Saying comics were sexist is just political garbage done for attention.

Now, have the movies been as open to female heroes as the comix? I'd say no. I think women have a point there. For whatever reason that equality you saw in the comix didn't translate to the big screen. That's a Hollywood problem - not a comix problem.

When actors start talking about diversity in good roles I'm with you. When they take that dumb ass step of blaming fans (who don't make films) for why you lose me...

That’s... not what she was doing.

She’s bemoaning the lack of diversity in her industry. That’s perfectly reasonable.

Why have you now twice misstated the point she was raising? This is getting weird.

I say way too many elitists. Is she counting? Why does it matter? She's the one making it about identity. It's her problem, and not everyone else's. Give her what she wants so that she'll be quite, or put a dick in her mouth or a snatch if she's that way
