Furious about Furiosa: Misogynists are losing it over Charlize Theron’s starring role in Mad Max: Fury Road

So you may have heard vague rumors that there’s a new Mad Max film coming out. You also may have heard that it stars Charlize Theron as a shaven-headed postapocalyptical badass named Furiosa alongside Tom Hardy as Mr. Max.

Well, the manly men of the Manospshere are having none of it. On the always terrible Return of Kings, the most-trafficked blog in the Manosphere, Youtube bloviator Aaron Clarey issues a clarion call to his fellow right-thinking men, urging them to

Not only REFUSE to see the movie, but spread the word to as many men as possible. … Because if [men] sheepishly attend and Fury Road is a blockbuster, then you, me, and all the other men (and real women) in the world will never be able to see a real action movie ever again that doesn’t contain some damn political lecture or moray about feminism, SJW-ing, and socialism.

Er, “moray?”

As Clarey sees it, the central flaw in this film that he hasn’t seen is, well, it’s going to be starring Charlize Theron as a shaven-headed postapocalyptical badass named Furiosa. And that’s just not right, because everyone knows that women are just too damn womeny to be postapocalyptical badasses.

Even worse: in one of the trailers for the film “Charlize Theron’s character barked orders to Mad Max. Nobody barks orders to Mad Max.”

Clarey also reports, with a kind of growing horror, that none other than Eve Ensler, of Vagina Monologues fame, was brought in to consult on the film. (And trust me, Clarey’s discomfort with Ensler has nothing to do with her issues with intersectionality.)

Sure, Clarey acknowledges, Fury Road — at least on the surface — “looks like that action guy flick we’ve desperately been waiting for where it is one man with principles, standing against many with none.” But, he warns, despite not having actually seen even a minute of the actual film, nothing could be further from the truth!

[L]et us be clear. … This is the Trojan Horse feminists and Hollywood leftists will use to (vainly) insist on the trope women are equal to men in all things, including physique, strength, and logic. And this is the subterfuge they will use to blur the lines between masculinity and femininity, further ruining women for men, and men for women.

Lines between masculinity and femininity blurring! Rivers and seas boiling! Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes. The dead rising from the grave! Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together… mass hysteria!

Clarey worries that

men in America and around the world are going to be duped by explosions, fire tornadoes, and desert raiders into seeing what is guaranteed to be nothing more than feminist propaganda, while at the same time being insulted AND tricked into viewing a piece of American culture ruined and rewritten right in front of their very eyes.

You might think that someone this worried about the legacy of the original Mad Max might have noticed somewhere along the way that Mad Max is not actually a “piece of American culture” at all. It was an Australian film, filmed in Australia, directed by an Australian, and starring an American citizen who’d been living in Australia since the age of twelve.

I’m guessing that the director of Fury Road might have a somewhat more nuanced understanding of the original Mad Max than someone who doesn’t even know what country the movie was made in, especially given that the director of Fury Road, the director of the original Mad Max, the director of The Road Warrior and the director of Beyond Thunderdome are actually all the very same person.

But over on Return of Kings the fellas are as furious about Furiosa as Clarey is. In the top comment to Clarey’s piece, with several dozen upvotes, someone calling himself “truth” complains that the evil feminists who run Hollywood are ignoring the immutable truths of gender.

Hollywood is a garbage propoganda machine which spews out this feminist drivel filth into the minds of today’s young audience. Even though science has told us and proven, that men are physically stronger than women, it is nonetheless discarded by the forces driving this feminist nonsense.

There is a sick agenda at play here, and it only continues to get worse over time. First this, and now the upcoming “Terminator Genisys” which shows Sarah Connor in a more heroic and superior position to that of Kyle Reese, really makes me wonder how much further down the toilet society is going to go down, in it’s ridiculous attempts to try and reverse the traditional gender and biological roles.

Because “traditional” and “biological” roles always seem to be the exact same thing to these guys.

It is clear that the brainwashing of the masses will continue to go on with the promotion of these absurd movies in conjunction with the whole “girl power” themes that are present in these films. Furthermore, factor in the indoctrination of the liberal schooling and educational system, there is no doubt, that masculinity will be attacked from all sides in attempt to make the female gender more superior. …

I guess from the damage that I am seeing on a daily basis being inflicted by the feminist movement, there is really no turning back. Men will continue to opt out of society and by rejecting to watch these kind of movies, can help to further cement this narrative. And if ever, should the manginas and white knights reach that epiphany when they realise they are not perceived as a credible voice in this feminist driven gynocentric matriarchy that we live in, then even they will opt out of society.

Huh. And, let me guess, once the men all “opt out of society,” it’ll collapse in a giant heap and desperate women will turn to men for help? No wonder these guys are so angry about Fury Road; it challenges their favorite apocalyptic fantasy. Call it Mad Max: I Told You Bitches You’d Come Crawling Back to Me.

Women and feminists in general have without a doubt, proven that they are dysfunctional by nature and cannot be trusted with anything. And this movie helps to prove it.

FWIW, dude, the movie was directed by a man. It was written by men. And even though it’s got a lot more women in it than your typical action movie, most of the named actors in it are male. But apparently, to guys like Clarey and “truth,” it only takes a few drops of female blood to contaminate an entire action film.

Always maintain your masculinity.

And once again it’s the guys who think of themselves as the most macho who are the ones most anxious about their masculinity.

Truth is also horrified by one of the posters he’s seen for the film:

Even though the movie is called “Mad Max”, the poster clearly centres around Charlize Theron, while Tom Hardy looks like some ordinary guy in the background.

A woman’s face … in front of a man’s face! Can masculinity survive this terrible assault?

Slashfund complains that in the poster it “looks like he is wearing a muzzle like her bitch.”

Well, not really. Anyone who’s seen the original Max Max and its first two sequels may remember that a lot of the characters wore weird headgear and creepy masks; this was intended to make them look scary and, you know, postapocalyptic. Max’s new mask is no different.

Clark Kent whines

Where I can’t stand these female characters in kickass movies is when it is so damn obvious that they are forcing the female character in just to appeal to the blue-pill masses. The whole point of Mad Max is that he is the most hardened self-respecting man in the post-apocalyptic world. He lived through the decline, and thus carries all the grief of having been strong enough to see what the world has become.

To turn Mad Max upside down and make it into a feminist flick is horribly telling of our times. Rather than creating new films to depict the world from a women’s perspective, we take the great myths of men and boys and rewrite them to make women happy.

What? Mad Max is a “great myth of men and boys” now? It’s a movie made in 1979, not a tale told around the campfire by our ancient ancestors. And don’t any of you Return of Kingers remember Beyond Thunderdome, the second Mad Max sequel, released six years after the original? You know, the one co-starring Tina Turner, stomping around like a badass as the ruthless ruler of Bartertown?

Like it or not, fellas, but badass women are part of Mad Max canon.

MajorStyles, for his part, suggests that the film may be part of a sinister plot to con men into liking women with (gasp!) short hair — a major Manosphere bugaboo.

And what’s the end game of all this horse shit? That Alpha men will start finding bald, androgyonous women with anger issues attractive? Yeah, when pigs fly…

Again, another fail on the part of Team Feminism. As it has been noted many times, they do not get to order men what to be attracted to. Erections cannot be legislated. Only a man of supreme thirst would find this angynous thing attractive.

And the women who choose to impersonate Theron’s look in this movie will always be relagated to the same position – bridesmaid, cat lady, or beta male abuser.

TS77RP1, meanwhile, wants his fellow men to think of the children. And what he thinks about the children — specifically, those of the female persuasion — is genuinely horrifying.

Seriously: if you’re having a decent day so far, or, hell, a crappy one — basically, if you’re a having any sort of day so far, you may want to skip the rest of this post. No joke.

.

Ok, if you’re still with me, here we go:

The only way back is to begin punishing ambition in our daughters and in all female children. They need to be physically and psychologically disciplined to be servile and deferential and they unfortunately need to have it beaten into them that they should NEVER trust their own judgement and always seek guidance and permission of their male headships.

Please tell me this monster doesn’t have a daughter.

My daughter would be turned out with nothing but a shirt on her back if she so much as looked at a college website or played with her brother’s educational toys.

Aw, fuck.

She would be belted to the point of being unable to sit if she exhibited confidence in decision making.

Fucking hell. A proud abuser.

I don’t want my wife to step foot out of the house unless her every dime and minute spent can be accounted for and executed in conjuncture with my approval. My daughter will exude obedience and timidity for whoever her future husband is and it’s imperative that all Christian Men demand nothing less within their own homes. Playtime for feminazis and the left is over. This is our world and our heritage to protect. Let the cultural war begin!

No words.

In a followup comment, he assures one skeptic that his wife and daughter are indeed real.

I do in fact implement this in my own home and practice what I preach vehemently. I have a daughter and sons and they are being raised to know that they are unequivocally different and 100% not equal. My wife is from a highly devout family and she was cowed long ago into obedience by her powerful, alpha father. I kinda won the life lottery >:^)

I can only hope that he’s bullshitting in an attempt to impress the Return of Kings regulars.

But impress them he does, winning upvotes and an awestruck comment by englishbob:

Wow! Its like you have a mini Saudi Arabia right in your home!

Apparently hatred of women trumps hatred of Muslims on Return of Kings.

I have no idea if Mad Max: Fury Road is actually going to be a good film. But I hope it does well, very well, if for no other reason than to spite these assholes.

As an Australian woman who grew up on the Mad Max films, I’m a little surprised to see them being claimed as a canon of American masculinity…..

Um, what version of Terminator did that one commentor watch to think that Sarah Connor in the movies was anything OTHER than a mega-ultra badass who could and did kick ass and take names through the movies? But let me guess, she’s only there to be the carrier of the special Time Baby who will Stop The Robot War with no help from his mom at all. Nope, he was born GUN IN HAND MURDERATING ALL THE ROBOTS.

That being said I’m really looking forward to the new Mad Max movie. Even more now.

And not touching the abusive shit weasel’s comments with a ten foot pole. Nope. Nope. Nope.

“FWIW, dude, the movie was directed by a man. It was written by men.”

MRAs are even more afraid of the changes in the attitudes of other men than they are of anything women have to say. I noticed when my kids were teens, around the time “Buffy the Vampire Slayer” became a hit, that many younger men are attracted to strong women, not just tolerating the occasional kick-ass women appearing in action movies, but clearly fantasizing about them. They were also capable of distinguishing fantasy from reality, but still wanted the real women in their lives to be their equals. And the younger women, naturally, preferred those guys to the entitled whiners and bullies.

No wonder David scares them so much. A man who is also a feminist challenges the “us against them” biological determinism that’s so much a part of their twisted worldview.

ROAD WARRIOR also had badass women in it, defending the refinery. In fact, pretty much all of George Miller’s films have badass women in them. Hell, his first big film after the original MAD MAX trilogy was WITCHES OF EASTWICK…

That’s because in these dudebro’s minds 100% of everything cool and useful was invented in the US and the rest of the world does nothing but ride our coattails. I actually wouldn’t be TOO surprised if *some* of these douchnozzles believed that people in Australia are too poor to own TVs/go to the movies.

I know that I’ve had to explain to other Americans (always men) that Western Europe has around the same standard of living as the US. ><

TS77RP1’s posts are all frighteningly bad. Scary to realize that he is part of the “Quiverfull” movement … I’d suspected they were linked but wasn’t certain.

I hope his daughter and his wife escape. Some do: http://www.patheos.com/blogs/nolongerquivering/

Also, gotta say, Quiverfull seems like a breeding ground for female atheists and feminists.

Holy Hell, MRAs should be banned by law from raising girls.

So fucking afraid of strong and proud women they are willing to utterly break their own daughters psychologically. And they still refuse to see that if such extreme measures is needed to get women acting “natural”, then there is nothing natural about it.

And what triggered this extreme outburst of violent misogyny? A strong female lead. Wow… just… wow…

I can’t imagine being so insecure in my masculinity (and men’s role in society) that a film with a woman in it challenges and breaks down their reality so much.

There was a commenter on here a while ago who honestly questioned why any man wouldn’t be an MRA because it only offered them advantages (while inviting us – seriously – to ‘join the dark side’ and all the other stuff they say that makes them sound like a group of eight-year-olds organizing secret missions against the girls from their treehouse). I’m proud to count myself among the people who reject that, and who scare them even more by not being one of them 🙂

Why call it ‘Mad Max’ when he is essentially just a supporting character? It just seems to me like a bait-and-switch tactic cashing in on brand recognition.

As for Mr. Proud Abuser, I wonder if he suddenly is going to want his daughters to develop “confidence in their decisions” when it comes to premarital sex? Or is he really naive enough to believe that he’ll be able to protect her from being propositioned?

Wait who am I kidding? Mr. Alpha dude is sooo alpha that in his mind he can control *everything*, including probably the weather. It would be funny if it wasn’t so damn pathetic.

And harmful.

Ox-ee-mor-on (@JoeKlemmer)

These guys have obviously never seen the original Mad Max trilogy. I almost want to know what drugs they’re on but the evidence shows that whatever they are destroy the brain to the point of idiocy.

He beats and mentally abuses his daughter. You know that he boys don;t fair better if the step out of their role either. This needs to be shown to the authorities. What he is doing is not legal. Those kids need to be removed from that home immediately.
Seriously, David, whop can we forward this to? Those kids are in pain and their abuser is bragging about abusing them.

A woman’s contentment is utterly frivolous and at cross purposes from the needs of men and must therefore be disregarded outright.

These are not human beings. These are monsters. That one line sums up the misogyny of these *things* perfectly.

“And what’s the end game of all this horse shit? That Alpha men will start finding bald, androgyonous women with anger issues attractive? Yeah, when pigs fly…”

Another case of “women aren’t allowed to exist except as sexual props that please my boner, so this must be a feminist boner-control conspiracy”. How can they even live like that, being offended by every woman they don’t personally find attractive? The entitlement is off the charts, as usual. There’s no conspiracy to control your penis, dude, nobody cares about your bonerfeels.

Knowing that there are people in the world who seem to genuinely believe that brainwashing and beating a child to believe that her life is of less value than her male peers is disgusting. I hope that man is lying, and that he remains alone until that insidious, insecure bullshit stops pinging around in his empty head. What a sick person.

The MRAs would be even more ticked off if they read actual news reports instead of using the voices in their heads as reliable sources. For starters, I present this headline from Reuters: Actress Charlize Theron urges women to stand up for equal pay.

After negotiating a salary equal to her male co-star for her upcoming movie, Hollywood actress Charlize Theron has called on other women to take a stand when it comes to equal pay.

Theron said she was outraged when leaked Sony emails showed a gap in what male and female actors were paid for the film “American Hustle” and she insisted on being paid on par with co-star Chris Hemsworth for the Snow White sequel “The Huntsman”.

“I have to give them credit, because once I asked, they said yes,” Theron said in an interview with British magazine Elle UK.

“They did not fight it. And maybe that’s the message: that we just need to put our foot down.”

Go, Charlize! That’s one way to get equal pay for equal work in Hollywood.

I suck at grammar. In fact, I made a stupid agreement error in my last post. Granted, that was more from my failure to proofread, than a lack of skill on my part, but still.

If even my incompetent, ignorant, female ass cringes at the mistakes you make with Elementary English grammar, you should probably refrain from boasting about your “naturally” superior intellect! For real!

And yet you people whine about how atheists are such horrible, eevil misogynists?!?
Christianity is patriarchal to the core. Let’s not forget about the Christian politician who claimed that rape is “part of God’s plan”.
