'Get Your D!ck Back in This Tub'


That has got to be the stupidest line I have ever heard. That would be like a man saying "get your pu$$y back in this tub" or "get your t!ts back in this tub." It's like they were trying to show her as ultra-tough or having more testosterone than the average woman. It's unnecessary. The rest of the movie shows that perfectly.

Again, stupid line.

I agree, I absolutely hate that line! So unnecessary.

It was supposed to be in context with what the scene was about in question; but just ended up sounding absurd. She asked her boyfriend if he would be prepared to wait for her, if she passed the training and then went on a 3yr SEALS stint. It was gender bending for effect and sensationalism only, and attempting to make some bizarre feminist slant of a point, that women have waited for their men—who they are needy for—so now it's men's turn. He was understandably annoyed. He wasn't needy for Jordan. It was like a cheap shot at men or was the line supposed to be for the benefit of the female audience to have a snicker? It only made Jordan come over as a real b!t@h and not tough and resilient, like the SEAL she was training to be.
