Is Hickey right? Are sexist male pigs like James Rolfe the reason why TV shows targeted at women are systematically underrated?

Women get salty about violent movies and video games and rate them lower than men. Such is life and free speech. Bitches need to get over it, whether a thing you like has a bad score online means literally nothing, it's a fucking number. Complain about womens rights in Saudi Arabia or something that actually matters.
Ryder Jones
Maybe female-oriented TV shows should be more inclusive.
Kevin Bell
It's only going to get worse from here. The next generation of filmmakers are being raised exclusively on capeshit and remakes.

>men don't like the same things as women
And women don't like the same things as men. Is there an overall point to this article besides stating the obvious?
James Jones
TRUMP IS A SHITLORD AND HE HAS A SILLY NAME
HE USES PERFECTLY LEGAL LOOPHOLES THAT ANYONE CAN USE TO AVOID PAYING TAXES
WE NEED OUR BORDERS OPEN 24-7 AND TRUMP WILL CLOSE THEM
Levi Hernandez
Yep. Way more important than migrants raping European women en masse.
Luke Robinson
>whether a thing you like has a bad score online means literally nothing But user scores purport to be objective, it says so right in the article. If people continue to trust user scores, they trust the opinion of sexist pigs! Do you want sexist pigs to rule our media and enteraintment through user scores?
Eli Fisher
>ms What a surprise.
Jose Wright
This is a show popular with women 18-29.
Guess which episode the lesbian warrior character died in?
Brody Cook
trump is the only candidate with enough balls to stand up to the SJW bullshit you should be thanking him
Julian Davis
But capeshit will start seeing diminishing returns, it's inevitable, and studios are not going to keep making them if they're not making money. It's already starting to happen with movies like Age of Ultron and Batman v Superman being considered commercial disappointments. All it will take now is for the next big thing to come along and capeshit will be on it's way out the door.

hmmm yeah nah
Ian Allen
>The more popular a show is among women, the more likely men are to give it a lower rating
It's the other way around as well I'd think? I can't image women in general giving Star Trek:TNG or trailer park boys a 9 on imdb.
Ethan Russell
Those ratings mean nothing because they were sabotaged by male IMDb users
Aaron Nguyen
there's a point to it. women tend to get underrated in the workplace in general as well. also, female students, despite being equal to or better performers than their male counter parts, are consistently seen as less intelligent by male students.
is it the sole reason why female-led shows under perform? no, no way that could be true -- but are females likely to be underrated without good reason compared to males by virtue of being female? yeah...though it seems like recent troll posts suggest that the opposite might also hold.
ain't the internet grand?
Jace Cook
Is iZombie aimed at wymyn?
Andrew Parker
No. A claim was made about the difference in ratings for Friends, but it was a very small difference. The tone that men have no business voting for these shows and that their opinions are irrelevant is terrifying stupid.

we really need to take these whores rights again, by force, we need to put these vapid cunts in their place with sheer testosterone driven strength
Angel Carter
That can't be the point of this article, can it? Because if you said that women aren't allowed to have opinions about shows that are aimed at men, feminists would go insane. Well, more insane.
Carson Hughes
i believe this wholeheartedly
Christopher Richardson
Nah, nigga. Shitty remakes just encourage people to go back and watch the true classics.
David Phillips
>A show targeted for women, performs bad with the males Gee I wonder why. I'm sure the next step in her master plan is complain that men not buying pads and tampons is making females angry.
Are all feminist so fucking retarded?
James Harris
Male ratings will rise even more next season seeing as Aly Michalka has been raised to cast regular and will thus being appearing in nearly every episode.
Adam Lee
how can people be so fucking stupid?
Easton Long
user I dislike Trump as much as any other nigger, mainly because he's a buffoon and too much of a hardliner, but there is literally no other choice at this point. Either Trump or America is fugged

How the fuck can you come to the first conclusion from that? It's outright lying. The most popular shows among women are shows like Breaking Bad that has 9.3 rating from women compared to the 8.1 of Sex and the City. Being popular amongst women actually means that the show is probably popular amongst men too because both genders like the best shows.
Luis Thomas
The strong brave women targeted by the evil Goofy Goobers.
Luis Morgan
I like how the article seems to imply that these men are all heterosexual. The truth is, most men watching women's shows are gay. But you can't criticize gay men because that would be gay-bashing.
Alexander White
>shows aimed at women are more successful with women Surely all this tells us is that the people who made most of the shows had some idea what they were doing?

all victims of the terrible serial killer known as the Gamergate and by all I mean like the third and fifth

the shitty pulp serials and B-movies of the 40s and 50s led to films like Star Wars and Alien 30 years down the line. It'll be fine.

Sex and the City is actually pretty good show and you should leave this board if you haven't watched it.
Colton Powell
So beautiful. It's like pottery.
Jose Butler
Well? It's really no surprise that movies aimed at women are more appreciated by women. I'd wager it's also true the other way around.
Evan Evans
Sex and the City was specifically made for the victims of feminism; The women who believed the lies that they could sleep around and do whatever they want because there will always be a better man. Now they are 40, men have moved on, and they are left alone. The show tries to push the lie that they are still desirable and men want them which is a lie. They are a declining asset, a bad investment, and men are going for the startups instead.
Gabriel Gray
women can't handle any sort of objective criticism, I never met a women that wasn't offended by being honest with them even though they asked me to be.
Michael Gutierrez
I fucking knew it!
Ethan Clark
He's got a point. This is exactly why I think all female-written reviews for The Expendables series should be removed from the Rotten Tomatoes aggregate. It's clear to me that the only way to finally defeat sexism is to judge EVERYONE exclusively by their sex and remove their personal achievements, beliefs, and personalities from the equation.
Jaxon Thomas
Women have shit taste.
Jaxson Miller
>tfw there are people in the world that live giving all their power up to numbers as if its an absolute and that a rating literally equals hate speech or shaming
It's the same thing in fitness. Bitches hate it when there's a number telling them something they don't want to hear
Aaron Young
but if you aim your show/film or whatever primarily at one demographic you can't be surprised when every other demo isn't engaged by it.
This isn't even a problem its just a simple fact of life. Less inclusive media will always limit its own audience.
Austin Thompson
What really gets to me is the fact this clickbait was published by 538. Didn't they use to pride themselves for unbiased analyses of cold hard data, unlike regular agenda driven pundits? What the fuck happened?
Jayden Johnson
The one thing I fucking loathe is how they must always tell you something about themselves. That son of a whore couldn't abstain from telling us about his stupid fucking coffee.

It was hit and miss. Occasionally good catty bantz, but it went insane after a couple of seasons.

Didn't misuse anything. Women are the primary victims of feminism.
Brayden Cruz

Juan Ortiz
He mentioned poisoned coffee in part of a larger analogy about how he disliked something. You could replace the word 'coffee' with any other beverage or food and the point still works. He's not rubbing some expensive Peruvian organic free-trade bullshit in your face, he literally just said the word coffee.
Hunter Perez
But there are testosterone blockers in all the food and water.
Painful being an iZombie fan though: Season 3 has been put back to a mid-season show (again) and will probably only be a dozen or so episodes long again.
Bumped from regular season probably because of Supergirl shifting to the CW. Don't mind Supergirl (Benoist is cute) but I think that SNL Black Widow parody pretty much nailed it.
Ian Turner
Men status: BTFO, on suicide watch, never to recover.

Not being desirable enough to get fucked regularly doesn't make you a victim. Dying alone doesn't make you a victim. Literally who gives a shit.
