The vantage point of the woke is outside time and social context and all communication through the annals of history is assailable. When the first sea lapped upon on first shore the woke were there to wonder aloud on salon.com if consent was affirmative.

Considering this is Reason and their habit of being full of poo poo; KP's made multiple statements insisting on presenting Brandon Teena as a woman faking masculinity so it's not like some of the dislike hasn't been earned.

I mean in the context of the film it's true. her standing in the mirror putting a roll of socks in her crotch and trying to act tough is faking masculinity.

also faking masculinity doesn't mean faking being a man. it means that she is trying to mimic the perception of what a man is supposed to be based on societal ideas.

"Performing masculinity" might be the better term imo. edit: that is to say, that it's no more or less authentic than when a "biological male" does it, the gender binary is a fiction we all perform for ourselves and each other in the first place

TomViolence posted:"Performing masculinity" might be the better term imo. that's absolutely true, but to say the director of film deserves to be called a bitch because she didn't say what she was supposed to is silly especially when she didn't say anything all that controversial to begin with.

i don't blame people for not trusting Reason magazine, so here's a queer leftism blog reporting on the same thingDapper_Swindler posted:alot of the "critics' believe everything has to be done a certain way for it to be acceptable.   you're far more likely to hear a dig at an obscure D-list celebrity on an episode of Difficult People than a joke about contemporary politics, but in this day and age, anything and everything must be interpreted as having a message
