I like The Mandalorian but let's be real, it is (or, rather, should be) straight up ridiculous how male dominated it is. Imagine a show that in its first three episodes, only had one man in a minor speaking role, and every other character of any significance at all was a woman.

And She-Ra is in many ways a show explicitly ABOUT centering women, but when shows are so dominated by men, they can still be seen as just "normal" shows.https://twitter.com/ianmclaughlin94/status/1197957293054124032?s=20 …

Never ceases to be wild to me how some people react to even mild criticism of massively successful popular entertainment as if just by uttering such critique, you’re passing a law that prevents anyone from admiring or enjoying that thing.

"Background characters" absolutely matter. When almost every bartender, cab driver, random shop owner and other bit part person is a man, it sends a message. Do y'all know that historically even in crowd scenes, women are drastically underrepresented? https://twitter.com/VarlusMD/status/1197985255027888135?s=20 …pic.twitter.com/jadoU1xOrt

The Mary Sue argument these fans have for Rey is so boring and bland.

What do you mean by "equally"?

That female sea lions have the same rights and opportunities as male sea lions.

I’m know I’m looking for logic where there is none, but I remember Mara Jade being hugely popular in the expanded universe, and I assume the same misogynistic nerd boys who loved her hate Ray? They’re like...the same character with different hair colors.

I mean, we know that anyone calling Rey a "Mary Sue" can be immately tuned out, which is nice.

God forbid a profession like bounty Hunter be heavily male skewed.
