This page is dedicated to movies that have a Feminism or SJW ulterior motive. More often than not, movies that fall under this category are reboots that involve changing genders of characters (mostly male to female) and changing plots to focus more on "social justice" rather than the subject matter.


Common Themes

Patriarchy is Evil

Generally these movies have some element of Patriarchy, a system designed by men for the subjugation of women. This can be seen as a military training leader telling a woman she can't be good enough or a politician demeaning a female character.

Double Standards Benefit Women

If a man does something bad to a woman, it's proof of sexism and any number of bigotry. He's automatically evil. If a woman does the same thing to a man, she's regarded a hero, she is cheered for... or at the very least, it is easily dismissed.

For example, if a man forces himself to have sex with a woman (without consent), it is regarded as the worst thing a man can do. However, in the movie 40 Days and 40 Nights, a male character chained himself to a bed so he wouldn't have any way to have sex (which included masturbation), his ex-girlfriend manages to have sex with him while he is sleeping. Given how our culture (except the Men's Movement) doesn't consider "forced to penetrate" as actual rape, it makes sense why no Feminists has ever criticized this scene.

Another example is the movie My Super Ex-Girlfriend, that had a man done everything G-Girl had done, he'd be seen as the worst man ever.

Weak Males Make Strong Females

Very often in films, in order for a female to stand out in the film, all the other male characters automatically have to be weak, whether in actual strength or in intelligence. Only women can solve the problem of the story and no one can do what she can do.

In the 2016 Ghostbusters remake, Chris Hemsworth character (gender flip of Jeanine from original) was impossibly stupid. This was likely done to make the female ghostbusters standout more, but to show how much more evil the Big Bad Male was when the actor started to act smart.
