Jessie seemed like a counterpart to Woody more than a proper character in her own right. The others, I forgot about, I guess. I concede.

Where did you stop watching?

Just curious.

What's this from?

.....I wonder if his crotch glows. D:

That's Inuyasha. A very angry one...

Erm...I don't think he's as much "homosexual" as "Sensui-sexual". He DOES like Naru, remember?

I am now jealous of your vinyl. :C

Having a female main character compromises the story?

Hey, at least you're sane about it. Personal taste is personal taste.

I know, but I don't own 3rd season yet T_T So I am so stuck. Man, Faith was so bad. Especially when she raped Xander. That guy has the worst luck with the ladies XD

Explain further.

Just because the "old master" character has been done many MANY times doesn't mean Genkai can't be enjoyed.

You're kind of a dumbass and I don't think you know very much about sexism. "Sexism works both ways" is also a contestable statement and depends on whether or not you believe that sexism is pure prejudice or prejudice + power. The latter tends to be more apt.

No, I don't mean less male leads. I mean more female leads. The side effect of more female leads just happens to be less male leads. And so the fuck what?

LOL

She redeemed herself a bit in season seven, but yeah.

And Xander has the worst track record ever. At least Buffy and Willow never went after a virginity-stealing bug.

It's bad to say, but the best girl he ever had was Cordie..

Can I add you? You're interesting to chat with

The OP isn't saying there weren't female characters in Pixar films. But you can't say that any of those were the main character, nor did they have roles that aren't "expected" of girls.

1. Good little housewife and mother. Tries to keep her children out of trouble. Only becomes any sort of badass near the end of the movie. Who is the movie really about? Mr. Incredible.

2. Yes, she's pretty awesome, but she doesn't do much except be the female counterpart to Woody and sing a song about how she once had a girl and lost it so she's content to be in some fat guy's collection. It wasn't her story anyway. It was Woody's adventure away from his nice safe room.

3. Actually gets out there and tries to overcome her own personal problem and the dangers of the ocean to help some guy she doesn't even know find his kid. (But the story still wasn't about HER.)

Which would you rather have as a role model?

Repeating this over and over doesn't make it less irrelevant to the issue that's being addressed. I think we're assuming that the story is going to be well-written, and granted, with better written material, it's easier for people to ignore blatant sexism and racism, but that doesn't mean that it isn't THERE.

LOL, it's true, and of course she ended up nearly ending the world on Angel later on.

Sorry, feel free. :]

You're right, it is harmless, and I do still enjoy what it can do for a story, I only wanted to point out that it wasn't actually canon.

Icon love. LOL.

Um, there is a reason the TV Networks are so interested in what genders watch their shows. They're called Demographics, and Marketing and Advertising is very interested in it all. It's not so general as you would think it is. They split everything up and focus on what age groups and genders that movies and TV shows will appeal to.

/I don't exist according to advertisers, I'm a girl who likes sci-fi and video games.

LMAO BORSHUNS!

104) Part of that comes from the fact that the very few times the subject comes up, Roy always comes off as a guy who likes women, rather than a guy looking for a woman. He gets annoyed during the whole "Bard" episode because it will make him late for a date. A date we then never hear about. He fantasizes about the army consisting of nothing but short skirted women. And he does happen to date the girl that Havoc was angling to get. He also makes a come on at a random nurse. He talks in a drooling fashion about Psiren. He shruggs off Hughes suggestions at marriage. Yes it's not much -- but the thing is, the show isn't about Roy's private life. Roy doesn't even show up for many episodes, and those episodes he is in, he is almost invariably wrapped up in work. The few data points we have for what goes on when he's not doing his job is that he enjoys women to an extent none of the other characters do.

118) I like my canon gen and my fics porny. I find most canon relationships rather unremarkable and inoffensive (not qualities I particularly want), plus canon relationships tend to restrict how and who the fandoms ships are.

125) Except in that those two are absolutely different in almost every way possible. I mean, really, what do they have in common besides a vague static physical resemblance? Absolutely nothing.

128) Can't read your secret at all (illegible font), so I'll just say Tosh sure had a beautiful death.

I think I might know who you are, although if you're who I think you are then I was previously unaware that you frequented

fandomsecrets.

If you are who I think you are, then I'm sorry if I overreacted when you said you were done with the series. It was just that you had been all over it for so long and you got me and dozens of other people into it and you were always great to talk with about it. I was really looking forward to you getting caught up so that we could squeal over more recent developments that I know you would love, so it was kind of a shock when you said you thought you were done with it. I totally get your reasons, and I hope you're enjoying what you're watching instead. You don't have to feel obligated to stay as 'the *name of fandom* girl'.

Of course, if you're not who I'm thinking of, ignore this comment plz.

But honestly, who hasn't almost ended the world on Buffy or Angel?

Woo hoo!

111. In general, I don't care all that much about actors' and actresses' personal lives... But I also don't follow them that much. I don't follow my neighbors' personal lives, why should a "star" be any more important?
