The feminazis on Joss' head are so misinformed, its ridiculous
Just reading these make me

The toy issue with BW is understandable though because it was so blatantly obvious...but I think that's more of Hasbro's fault for trying to make more $ off Captain America.
Whitewashing two iconic romani-jewish characters. She should read the comics, as if the latest retcon they're no longer Jewish, and what's more, i'd go so far as to say they've never really been known for either of those groups. Like what cultural values have they ever shown from those groups? Whereas with Magneto him being Jewish and the Holocaust could be said to be a cornerstone for his character, his former children however have just always had that tacked on and no writer's ever done anything of note with it. This isn't to say that whitewashing is ok, but i'd say there are different levels of severity. Compare this to Tiger Lily being cast as white in the newest Peter Pan film, when her and her entire tribe have always been acknowledged as representing Native Americans, or white actors in Exodus Gods and Kings.
For the next one, this is what stuck out to me "tiny dr. helen cho cowering in terror @ one of the ultron bots" LMFAO so we can't even have a civilian woman being afraid of a murdering robot now without it seeming sexist?
Good Lord.
Tony mentioning that he'd get a farm like that for Pepper is a bad thing? A nice, peaceful, out of the way place in the country, where they can get away from their major responsibilities of Superhero and CEO? Well damn.
Natasha ‘I am a monster because I cannot bear children‘ Romanoff- One could only possibly think this is the reason she considers herself a monster if they ignore literally everything else about her in this film, and the last film, and the last Avengers film, where she's since made it very clear that she feels terrible about her past life before SHIELD.
Too many people seem to take any scene where a woman isn't proving that she's just as big and bad as the boys as some sign of weakness or deeply rooted sexism against women man, despite the fact where you have these women constantly proving themselves in other scenes, just like the men do. ****, Ultron specifically
needed Dr. Cho because of how freaking brilliant and inventive that woman was. That places her up there with Tony and Bruce. Natasha has spent every single film since her first appearance taking names and kicking ***. Jane was mentioned to be up for the Nobel Prize, Pepper running one of the largest companies on the planet. So though these last two don't appear, and are being used for a kind of bragging/pissing contest between men, it's them bragging about just how awesome the women they're in love with are. LIke, the ****? Man I hate ignorance like this.
