You are halfway to a profound thought (albeit one that many have come across before).

Hop back in the shower and think about it some more.

Some pointers:

  • Who is writing these characters?
  • Do they really match the women in your life?
  • What do these characters say about us?

    There could always be more, but there are lots that are overlooked as well. I'm rewatching "the rookie" at the moment, and nearly every woman in that show is a strong woman of some form or another.

    And there is arguably a deficit of good male role model characters as well. Room for improvement all around.

    Meanwhile, I as a man, see a spider, scream like I'm in a Hitchcock film and require a brave calm woman to save me from it.

    Hollywood writers are dumbass's.

    Because movie writers are sexist retards

  • There are situations in which this will happen, just like there are situations in which women will remain calm while a majority of men will lose their minds (I'm sure there are some male Vs female global statistics on physical violence that show it, lol). No-one is calm and reasonable all the time. 🤷
