Cheese, Forced Characters, Anti-Male celebration


Just utter garbage so far we have had

Unrealistic fights where the woman would of got the poo kicked out of her but somehow manages to win.

Every time a new entity turns up be that the mortician or the military you have some forced female lead attached to it. Just so forced and unrealistic but on top of that they have pushed it so that there is a docile male character directly beneath her exaggerating the ridiculousness of it.

Then you have the anti-male crap that is dripping from this show, we have the stereotype of a wife beater which is laboured and exaggerated. We have the dead beat dad that doesn't want to have anything to do with their child. All tired stereotypes but ones that feminists love to use over and over again even though stats show that it happens in equal numbers with the genders switched.

It seems with all the agenda driven crap that SyFi is pushing out, (usually from Canada I might add who are delusional and so full of retarded social justice warriors they applaud this lack of realism in favour of their wet dream), this kinda rubbish might of died down by now. However its becoming apparent they wish to continue to churn out this rubbish even though its tanking hard.

These aren't stereotypes, these are just inconvenient truths. The deadbeat dad that neglects his child, isn't a stereotype or an old trope, it's hi, welcome to earth, reality. This is like calling anti-nazi films unfair. How is this unrealistic? I know plenty women who kick ass, and many docile men, and many *beep* fathers...

This show also has strong men as well, it's not anti-men, it's just showing you what you don't like to see, which is reality that there are *beep* men out there, and women.

Yes... we don't get any anti-male bias..... it does have a female protagonist so there is more of a balance to the gender presentation. We like the show; it has grown on us. Dark and serious, yes, but overall a welcome addition to vampire stories in general.

Because the only place these SJW's can live is in a fantasy world.

That's not fair. The macho marine and many of the character of the show are male and strong. And some women are strong and others are weak and treacherous. Like in real life. There are all sort of people, no matter they gender.
And there are a lot of husbands who beat their wives and parents who don't want to bother too much with their children. Of course they are just some of them, but enough to make it something that could be realistically portrayed on tv. Even of a syfy show.

So you're complaining about the lack of realism that a woman isn't getting her ass kicked, in a fictional show about a fictional ancestor of a fictional character that fought fictional beings, and this woman has some magic defence/weapon against' these fictional beings?

And what mortician?? Or do you not know the difference between a mortician and a coroner? (Because I'm kinda guessing that if you don't know the difference between the two, it's no surprise you don't understand the difference between gender neutral and anti-male)

Blah, blah, blah Janet Wilkinson (most certainly a dude, or a bro, or a brah)

Anti male! Canadians are delusional! Rubbish! Tanking hard (renewed and getting good ratings). Crawl back in your Trump hole.

So how did you miss the part where 4 armed men lived in an abandoned hospital with two women, one that was in a coma, for three years yet nothing untoward ever happened?

Then don't watch it and don't come to IMDB and post about it. There, your problem is solved.
