Frozen was a good movie with powerful female roles which pushed against the stereotypical princess movie. I like it. But the trailer for Inside out is just screaming "Men are dumb idiots who can't be good fathers".
I can see I'm fighting a torrent of koolaid though, so I'll leave it.
- 1stop 11y agoDismissing opposing view points as koolaid is a bit weak. Just accept people don't agree with you. It's okay. We can both be right and wrong here. I see it as a comedy, not a statement on modern day gender roles. People relate to stereotypes even if they don't live them. Children relate to them, it doesn't matter that it's the dad or the mum, every child has had a moment when their parent doesn't pay attention to them, or over reacted, or they over reacted, so the scene will resonate. You can still teach your children to recognise stereotypes for what they are. Rather than boycotting exposure to them.
