[QUOTE="Merlion, post: 1287401, member: 10397"] well, there was also :teflon Billy is partialy right...most sterotypes do have some basis in fact. However, I think in the case of gender stuff, its less about gender and more about societal gender roles and conditioning. Yes many traits are to be found in most men, and many different ones in most women, but I think a lot of that is cultural more than something physicaly or pyschologicaly inherent in the genders. ( realize you thought this was irrelevent, although I dont understand why.) and:obviously, the author of the articles statements about lack of emotion are simply absurd. Both males and females showed emotions of all sorts, directed at both others of the same, and oposite genders. This was indeed one of the most emotional movies I've ever seen...I would have broken down completely if I'd let myself. Basicaly, people had already said most of what was to be said about thease things. I didnt feel there was a lot more I could add. As for the rest, I wasnt just listing the 3 big female roles and there names and atributes. I was attempting to explain why I disagree with the idea that there are not strong important females in the stories, by listing the things that thease characters did that were important to the story. I'm sorry if that wasnt clear. It might not be my best thought out post ever. [/QUOTE]
