This is pure fantasy. Women aren't heroes or physical combat warriors.

Certainly in the youtube clips of the YPJ, some the young woman are of the same build and height of the female lead of Rouge one. Of course, they are not like what you describe as a shampoo princess and yes I do share that criticism of female leads in action orientated movies.

For me, a perfect action actress is Gina Carano and Katee Sackhoff but they are not Hollywood beauty enough to be leads in any top Hollywood movie.

Every time someone complains that a yucky female character showed up in Star Wars and ruined their fantasies. Maybe Star Wars just isn't for you. Like I said, stick to "300" or "Top Gun" and you'll be happy.

This is a story set in a fantasy universe so the cast could be all men, all women or a mix of both depending on the narrative. Given that women make up 50% of our population and films are about ACTING I see no problem with women making up a substantial part of the cast, including characters who fight, such as soldiers.

For those who are slow on the uptake, this is because they're pretending to be soldiers the same way those aren't really talking droids or aliens...

These films aren't feminist just because you see them that way.

Who are you to decide what women in the fantasy setting of someone else's story should be capable of?
Exactly. You're nobody.

Your argument about the dangers of a false reality is as ridiculous as it is comical.

Do you really have such a low opinion of women that you believe this film will inspire them to rebel violently against authority because they can't tell the difference between Star Wars and real life.

I doubt you're as critical about the equally fantastical Marvel movies, IMF force or James Bond?

Regardless, there is little cause for complaint with Rogue One. The vast majority of the characters in this fantasy war film (including the droid) are men. Indeed, there are only a handful of females in the entire cast.

These movies aren't about coal mining, they're about rebelling against oppressive governments, and there have always been women rebels.

I'm not making up anything, I'm stating a fact - if teh manbabies weren't scared of the portrayal of strong women, it wouldn't be an issue.

No one genuinely believes a litte boy could outsmart two home invaders in real life, yet no one freaked out about the "fantasy" of Home Alone. No one genuinely believes a dog could play basketball, but where were the screaming masses complaining about Air Bud?

But the difference here is that there ARE women who could easily kick a man's rear in a fight. Sorry, but that's a simple fact.

And this upsets you greatly.

And it makes me laugh.
