You know what would be great? (And possibly cause a huge shitstorm)?

If the new Powerpuff Girls were to have Femme Fatale come back as a villain, even for one episode.

Sometime this year. Considering they just put up a trailer, I assume soonish.

Why's that? Is it the massive hypocrisy she's flashing? (Criminal pseudo-feminist robbing from women)

That was a pretty feminist episode. Shit, Lauren Faust herself admitted that she wasn't clear enough in its message and that ideally she would've hammered on it further.


Now compare with how they handed the Rowdyruffs. Had it happened today, we would've gotten lenghty MRA essays on how PPG are waging a war against boys and demonizing male youth.

We got lengthy essays on how PPG was waging a war against girls and demonizing feminism with Femme Fatale. Not on mass media, but we did.

Actually a common interpretation on Tumblr is that Fatale is clearly a radfem. PPG is a fan favourite cartoon for feminists, after all.

Actually much of the flak the episode got from feminists came when it came out, several years before Tumblr.

It's nice to know the discourse evolved and the episode was re-evalued, then.

In a way, not necessarily. We always saw Johnny making unwanted advances on women, and paying the price for it.

We can enjoy something for what it was/is, rather than having to check if "it's feminist" or not, right?

Johnny Bravo was funny and had a nice art style.

I haven't watched the episode, but from what I read, "Witch-ay Woman" sounds pretty damn feministic. Given the chauvinistic casanova-wannabe main character ends up turned into a girl and has to deal with cat-calling and sexist remarks.

My memories fairly blurry on the whole series. I can't remember if I even enjoyed it.

Tho' never thought much about the 'feminist' subject.

How about you stop telling people how to enjoy a show?

Some people like talking about political overtones, theories and such. You should let them do that and go on with your day.

Speaking of political bias in childhood shows, Dragon Ball Z is liberal propaganda and all the major villains represent all of the main rivaling ideologies it had to face throughout the 19th and 20th centuries.
