no shade it’s actually scary how many people think misogyny has to present itself as extreme hatred of women and violent rhetoric for them to consider it as such. casual misogyny is dangerous precisely because it often presents itself as normal, harmless, or “just a joke”
this is the thing that is bugging me the most. no one’s saying it’s a perfect movie but this narrative that it’s the worst shit ever and the dcu is doomed is just so fucking annoying and untrue
Men be like, “women just aren’t good leaders,” and then call their wives 9 times from the grocery store because they can’t find the items on the list *she* made.
But sure, women can’t handle leadership.
Katie Miller has a master's degree and a career. It appears that she has consistently worked since she was 20. She can open a bank account, own property, and have a credit card in her name. She has access to no-fault divorce and would be entitled to child support for her baby if she and Stephen Miller divorce. She has laws protecting her against physical abuse and rape by her spouse. She had access to birth control and abortion, meaning that having a baby was a choice.
She is very much not living the life that the "propaganda. . . convinced" women was oppressive. She is living the life that feminism made possible.
Of course, she knows this. She's just a liar.
