[Disturbed's 'Indestructible']

Transcript by OP

[fscom]

Image: A screencap from Disturbed's "Indestructible", featuring a woman in army gear running at the camera, firing her gun.

Text: I enjoy this song's beat and lyrics.
But when I watched the music video and realized that they had chosen a woman to be the modern example of someone "indestructible..."
I teared up.
It just felt so empowering to me, a sort of "Look at this! Look at what we can do!"
Unfortunately, it also means that now I can't listen to this song without having that reaction. Damn it.
(And no, I'm not a militant feminist or anything like that. I honestly have no idea where this reaction came from.)

That is a kickass song. You have excellent taste in music.

But you need to find more examples of women being hardcore if this is your reaction to that scene. We've been kicking ass for a while now. Here's a link to start you off:

Thanks for the link!

I think it was just the surprise of it that got/gets to me. Here the video's depicting all these noble warrior types throughout history that are (understandably) male, and then they hit the modern day and instead of sticking with the male pattern, they put a woman in there instead. It was so unexpected that it threw me for a loop.

I find that moving as well; when doing the decent thing is simply taken for granted. They're not trying to do a victory lap or act like it's such an amazing progressive thing that a woman can be a warrior, it's just there and not a big deal.

[(Anonymous)]

It makes total sense to me.
