First, who buys tickets to movies? Who are the customers? The answer: Males 18-35. They are the largest consumer of movies in theaters. So it’s not surprising that there are tons of superhero and adventure movies that appeal to young males.

Second, are you recommend that we legislate film casting in a Title IX sort of way? So we’ll make movies (at whose expense?) that no one wants to see, just as we’ll kill off football to fund women’s lacrosse, which no one really wants to watch.

And if you take three groups of psychologists and tell the first to list the characteristics of a healthy female, the second of a healthy male, and the third of a healthy person, the first and third groups will produce very similar lists while the second will the odd one out.

Do you have evidence to support this claim? I wouldn’t defer to male on any of the categories you mentioned except biker, most of whom are indeed male. I’m 57% likely to think of a female student first, and I read a lot of women writers, so female would also be my default there.

Re your favorite internet feminists, have you asked them to square their views with the views of these radfems? Thorn is openly critical of certain aspects of sex-positive feminism, and I suspect the only way she can away with that is because she’s kinky, which gives her a lot of feminist cred. Not being heteronormative is, in and of itself, a huge plus in feminist circles.

Ultimately, if you align yourself with a movement, or an ideology, you must answer for its tenets. If you disagree, you are bound to say so, or accept being labeled as being in sync with all aspects of it. Of course, you are free to read and admire whomever you like. I do wonder how you stand it, though.

To reinforce the point, television is generally aimed at middle-age women.
