I’ve been trying to come at a certain issue from various angles; I started with a sarcastic approach, which quickly evolved into satire.  Then I tried using rhetorical questions; exposing the truth might affect a change.  But I realize that none of that will work, any attempt to persuade certain people is simply an exercise in futility.  If you genuinely believe strong women leads in Star Wars is a bad thing, then there’s nothing I can do for you.

 

In Star Wars Episode VII, Luke Skywalker’s daughter is a Jedi – deal with it!

In the upcoming Star Wars: Rogue One, a girl living under the oppressive rule of the Empire is a little spunky – get over it!

Now that you think of it, Princes Leia was a little too rebellious for your tastes – you just didn’t notice it so much because she took her proper place right behind C-3PO and R2-D2.

On one hand you belittle and demean those who aren’t perceptive and discerning – but it’s you who don’t get what Star Wars is really about.

Or maybe there’s something wrong me because I would rather watch a million movies with Rey as the lead than one more with Anikan…

No, it’s you.
