The internet loves ridiculing women who slip up, or like Jennifer Lawrence in this case, are maliciously taken out of context for the purpose of ridiculing women
“I remember when I was doing ‘Hunger Games,’ nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie because it wouldn’t work — because we were told girls and boys can both identify with a male lead, but boys cannot identify with a female lead.”
I’m curious how you’re gonna spin that as being taken out of context.
she’s talking about an attitude studios had at the time. you have no evidence that this exact conversation didn’t happen. fuck, you can see right wing babies cry and throw a fit right now whenever they see a woman in the lead of any movie let alone action.
That’s a pretty piss-poor attempt at an argument. She specifically states nobody had ever cast a woman as an action lead. And as for not having evidence, that fact that she didn’t deny it, and issues an apology tends to imply she fucking said it.
After #MeToo, liberals have over corrected so much that as soon as a woman says anything, you take it as fact. And if that woman is wrong, you twist her words like some MAGA chud with Trump to try and make her right all along. It’s absolutely ridiculous. You know it’s ok to admit that sometimes a woman somewhere will say some stupid shit, right?
I think some of it is because we love our action women! Sigourney Weaver and Linda Hamilton were fucking AWESOME action stars that were unique, smart and complex; and not just “woman who acts like a douche male” type that most modern poorly written female action stars are.
And IMO they were way better actresses and better written than whatever hunger games was.

To be fair, I don’t think she meant it literally. I could definitely see how in a conversation she meant little to none which is true.

you completely misread the part about evidence.
you didn’t have to go full MRA but ok that’s a choice I guess

True. There’s certain asymmetry in how internet likes to shit on women. You would have to be blind to not notice
It is some kind of sport in every single community regardless of political spectrum. The difference is amount of slurs
I always get the death threats quite immediately when I mention being a land lady. There is asymmetric escalation
