Why is it "reverse sexism" when it's against men?

So you're saying you don't see men and women equally? Ah I see...

This isn't the goddamn1950s. If there's on there should be the other. I don't see the other forums as being about men... And now it's apparently about being white... You do know the white people can be victims of racism as well right? Oh but of course, in that case it's "reverse" racism because all white men are rich *beep* who get everything they want and *beep* all over everyone else, I forgot.

@jack

Stop your damn whining about white men being so-called "victims" whenever it's pointed out that they dominate and discriminate against everyone else that isn't white and male. Because it's the truth---you just can't handle hearing it called out,that's all.

Stop treating women like they're fragile little girls who can't handle anything. And don't blame an entire race of people for the few.

That depends on the way your using the word 'equal'. I believe that Nothing_Is_Forever is implying that women aren't represented equally in these IMDB message boards. And also Nothing_Is_Forever is saying that women are entitled to rights equal to that of men.

This isn't the goddamn1950s.
Indeed. It isn't the 1950's.

If there's one there should be the other.
I notice you haven't started a thread on the LGBT Film board titled 'Why isn't there a board titled 'Straight Film'', if you truly believe what you say then ideally you should have.

I don't see the other forums as being about men...
Harry Potter and James Bond are men.
Here are the boards about these men:

To show how men-centric these boards are, here a copy-n-paste of most recent posts on the Box Office board:

And now it's apparently about being white... You do know the white people can be victims of racism as well right?
This 'racism' towards white people is caused in response to racism from white people. And therefore, by definition, not racism.

Oh but of course, in that case it's "reverse" racism because all white men are rich *beep* who get everything they want and *beep* all over everyone else, I forgot.
No, it's reverse racism because it's made up to make white men look like victims and get people to feel compassionate for them, while continuing to be the problem. (Not ALL white men, I say white men because they make up the majority of the group in question).

Stop treating women like they're fragile little girls who can't handle anything.
Nothing_Is_Forever wasn't. Nothing_Is_Forever was commenting about the men who view women as less than them.

And don't blame an entire race of people for the few.
Nothing_Is_Forever never blamed an entire race or gender of people. I suggest rereading the post you were replying to.

The boards for Harry potter and James bond are not just of those characters, but of the entire series in which women are indeed a part of.

Admittedly the point about the Harry Potter and James Bond boards was meant as a sly joke, hence the reason I followed it with my point about how men-centric the boards were.

That said, the James Bond movies and books are about James Bond, so any talk of the women in the James Bond movies and books would be in relation to James Bond. Hence, man-centric.

Becaus men already dominate the film business,as anyone with a working brain knows. It's the norm,and barely 2 percent of directors are women.

Is it possible that a lot of talented women would rather act than direct?
