My husband enjoys animated movies and super hero themes more than I do. This movie (and similar ones) are his choice. I go along as compromise.

Oh, we're not disliking them, per se. We're just mocking them.

"Rough"?

I must have missed those posts.

I do recall nonsensical though.

I am? <checks contents of pants> Nope. You're very consistent when it comes to being perceptive, I'll give you that.

I know men are stronger than women but aren't women more flexible usually? I see more women acrobats than men it seems, unless it's just me. So I thought that even though men are stronger, a well trained combat women could still win a fight, cause of flexibility. There was a woman in a martial arts class I took, and she was more flexible than all the men, and she could totally win fights, because of it. So doesn't flexibility beat strength to a degree?

The point some more delicate men are trying to make is:
Men strong. Women weak.
Women meant for childbirth and jobs like teaching, nursing and social work.
Men meant for jobs like soldiers, police, firefighters and generally running things.
Anything else is threat to democracy.

Just cause you look down on everyone doesn’t mean they are looking up to you. Bless your little heart.

Yes, that's how I've stayed married to my wonderful husband for 30 years.

Why do you allow yourself to be pestered into doing things you don't want to do? Was it your mom pestering you take her to the movie?

You are every bit as observant as I'd imagine.
