I already made a similar post, but it was completely unfounded, and now I see exactly what I was talking about. These patriarchal news sites love to suck men's dicks off, I can't. I adore this tendency to justify box office failures/film quality by citing the fact that there are women in the film and that they are the main characters, not the motivation for the male lead.

And all these armchair critics probably haven't seen Supergirl and don't intend to. Somehow, I doubt they even watch any films; they just really enjoy justifying their misogyny.

Of course, I decided to do a little fact-checking, and I didn't quite find any evidence that the shows were being cancelled specifically because they had women in them. Moreover to be cancelled they weren't canceled, they were postponed. AND EVEN MOREOVER for some reason they don't mention that several other projects, but with male leads, were cancelled — and that's right, cancelled (for example, Booster Gold). Maybe women are to blame here too?

Pouring one out for Satan who rose from the Lake of Hell because his butt was on fire, but then burned his feet because the ground was on fire too.
