Outlander (FB) - see this previous post.
Something that was already revealed with Deep Space 9 and nuBSG? He eidn't have to get involved with the TV adaptation of the novel, after all.
"Outlander" Is The Feminist Answer To "Game Of Thrones" — And Men Should Be Watching It
Outlander: It’s a great feminist adventure. I wish it were a little more of a cheesy romance. By Willa Paskin
Would Scots of that time really tolerate such a bossy woman? How sexist/misogynistic can these Scots be when they acquiesce to her bossiness? No response to her sass? Just some dumb men who are not verbally clever enough? What about responding with force? What, even those who are rough around the edges might adhere to some measure of "chivalry" in their treatment of women instead? Talk about undermining the case against men.
Look at the comments at the Buzzfeed article. Why waste time on engaging with them in "dialogue" instead of demolishing them with rhetoric, as Vox suggests?
So in connection with this novel/TV show when a feminist claims she wants respect for who she is, what she really wants is authority over men. It's not meritocracy.
