Re: IN WHAT FUCKING WORLD IS MAD MAX FEMINIST?!? - TW Likley rape discussion
I think people praise it for having good female characters because
- Furiosa is equally competent, if not more competent than Max
- Furiosa and max are actually both responsible adults that respect each other and need each other without being needy-dependent.
- The women all have personal motives, hopes, dreams and personal arcs separate from the hero.
- None of the women are a prize for the protagonist
- While rape is definitely implied to be part of the universe, it's more about human life being a commodity than misogyny, because Max unwillingly used as a blood donor, and War Boys being used as canon fodder shows the bigger picture of lack of agency (that is not just women's issue).
Euh...and I don't think anyone except MRA's claimed it's a feminist movie. The rest of us just think it's a good film with good characters - and some of those happen to be female.
