[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It hits different generationally.

"Modern women" won't find it to be a revelation.

Many older women will find it liberating.

Lots of (more clueless) men will find it thought-provoking.

More traditional or sheltered women of younger generations will find it novel.

There's value in that, even if there isn't value for you and me. [/quote]

Agree with this completely. The younger generation does not realize what it was like for the older generation. When I was in school, girls sports were practically nonexistent except for maybe volleyball. But you could be a cheerleader.

The rights and expectations for females today were fought for by yesterday’s women. Some of those rights are being eroding by today’s political venues. And with that, expectations will also revert back to the past.

And if you think all of what was said in the movie is wrong, take a look at today’s landscape. If a female politician or celebrity comes on too strong the B word is used and the criticisms against them are much more than if a man comes on as strong as today’s women.

And take a look at the #metoo movement. For awhile there it had great traction but it too is starting to back slide.
