Oh, i thought they banned all the men out from watching wonder woman in that theater. If its just one or 2 screens then its not that much of a problem.

Glad you've seen the light, but in the future wouldn't it be better for you to read the information first and then form an opinion?

The skeptic in me questions the wisdom in offering a segregated screening for a hero that was designed to empower women to rise up and be equal to (and even become superior to) men.

But one screening in one theater for one day, out of the massive market this movie will see, I don't see any potential negatives having a significant affect on anything. So, whatevs. Cool for any woman that wants to check it out like that, I guess.

Other screenings exist for the males to see and they're known for having special screenings for certain groups like with veterans. The guys crying are the same ones that go online to bitch about some kind of imaginary slight by a random woman that doesn't even know they exist


Again, "certain groups like veterans" is not an exclusionary thing that prevents entire demographics from the viewing. Anyone from any ethnicity or gender can be a veteran, and I bet if a veteran took his family to the screening they would let the entire family in.

Based on the details of this WW fiasco, a woman would not be allowed to bring her husband to the viewing (though a lesbian woman would be able to bring her SO). It's kind of dumb and only serves to damage the concept of "equality among people".

Okay, I admit I didn't read the full story.

Apparently Wonder Woman comes out June 2 and the reserved showtimes for women are on June 6.

So there's literally nothing that men are losing here.

Its almost like,

"Lets open a white mans only restaurant."

"Apologies, coloured fellas, but we're embracing our white power and saying 'Only whites are allowed'

Goes to prove that racism is a serious crime but sexism towards men is laughing matter.
Oh but sexism agasint woman is a serious crime.

As a colored fella, if white people want to have a whites only night at a restaurant after centuries of being denied service at black-owned restaurants, I'd be more than happy for them.

implying women weren't allowed to go to movies

Is it ok to discriminate against people based on their gender or isn't it

It's gotta be one or the other.

I'll consider caring when they hold "___ only" viewings for movies that aren't piles of shit.

I feel like you'd have to be slightly mentally/emotionally unhinged to actually care about something like this at all

The whole idea of this is both pointless and sexist and whoever planned it is or defends it is an idiot

Honestly I don't care because the Wonder Woman movie is almost here for everybody to see. It be a different situation if men weren't allowed to watch the movie period.

So let those fine celebrity women enjoy their time together.
