As such he does not conform to regular patriarchal values. I don't see him gettin married anytime soon - maybe never. There always seem some "other" woman when it comes to him and his relationships.
March 13, 20241 yr 14 hours ago, SympathysSilhouette said: Well the term patriarchy is derived from patriarch. Which was meant to mean the male leader of a family. Leo hasn't got a family yet, he isn't even married yet even though he is nearly 50. As such he does not conform to regular patriarchal values. A celebrity who could be deemed a patriarch in the old sense of the word would need to be married to a woman, for a long time at that and have several children. Before his divorce in 2011, Mel Gibson could have applied to the term. He had 7 children and was with his first wife for around thirty years. He since had two more children in subsequent relationships. A patriarch is a "male head of a family or a tribe". You can reasonably argue that Leo has a huge tribe of women (and BTW, good for him, he deserves it) If your definition of the patriarchy is so strict, you're welcome to debunk all the feminists/teenagers who scream "patriaaaarchy" all the time The West is not a patriarchal system. Welcome to the anti-woke team, my friend! I'm glad you finally woke up (sorry for the pun, I couldn't resist)

Some of them are protect and want their family more than their life, like dome druggers or homeless I observed. You are right. Many patriarchs (and patriarchies) are actually very good.

This is because some people need scapegoats. And for modern "woke mobs" the scapegoats are "straight white men". It makes their lives easy to think that everything bad in the world is due to their favorite scapegoat.

I don't like Disney (at all) but this is insane. So media companies are now forced to employ actors? That's a new way of doing business I guess.

That's a new way of doing business I guess. Did you read the lawsuit? She sues them for wrongful termination. They are not "forced" to employ anyone. This is not the point. The point is that there are rules to fire employees. They didn't respect the laws on how to fire her. Also, they discriminated her since they used an argument to fire her and didn't use it on other employee. Another claim is that many employees and execs from Disney harassed her. https://s3.documentcloud.org/documents/24410222/gina-carano-disney.pdf
March 23, 20241 yr ^ BTW, Gina is a woman, so "sexism" is how woke cultists would call her firing... if she was a leftist... but since she's not, many woke employees from Disney not only didn't care, but they also threatened and harassed her on social media. Wokism is a doctrine based on hatred.

It would essentially mean any actor who is dropped from a series could claim discrimination and forced to be rehired. I'm not sure how the industry is meant to work in that way.

I have heard "experts" saying she has a sure win... so, here's a fair question: how trustworthy are the "experts" in the media? My guess is often times: not so much. 😅 The "experts" I heard said that Disney didn't take all measures to properly fire her (she learned about it on... social media. Not very classy and quite borderline in terms of legality. I guess we'll see what the court has to say in the end (and I hope Disney loses).
