Finally a movie about guys! I am so tired of the sexism in the industry, all the major movies revolve around female leads, actresses get paid the most, they even get to pick the male leads. Not to mention male actors are called old when they turn 30 but female actors play the lead well past 50 and are considered sex symbols. It's so unfair. And not just in Bollywood, Hollywood too. All superheroes are female, the few male superheroes who do exist never get solo films and there are 30 female led superhero films every year!

I think feminism should be banned because it is awful and hurts the feelings of men because it's not about them and can anything be worse? I mean people say feminism is needed because every day more and more girls are getting sexually assaulted, high schools have students committing suicide because people are circulating videos of their rapes so that boys can get off on it presumably, some dude started a revenge site where guys can post nudes of their ex-gfs, and there is a huge wage gap but these are just minor inconveniences and girls should deal with it because it has always been like this. Guys have a right to treat women as objects, we should feel lucky that they treat us better than our ancestors have. And guys have to deal with much worse. can you imagine DP made a VIDEO called MY CHOICE which was insulting to guys because of its TONE even though it never said anything explicitly. THAT is SO MUCH WORSE than anything girls have to deal with.

Oh, what do you say? If guys got offended by My Choice should girls get offended by this movie? Of course not. Those are completely different things. First of all EVERYONE should have been offended by MY Choice because it was insulting to guys. And no guy created a fuss about it at all. Everyone was so sporting and supportive of it. It's only girls who get offended by movies which are good fun and TRUE. Stupid feminists, demanding equal rights and respect.

Golu, you are such a cool girl! I am sure all your guy friends think really highly of you! And that is what is most important! Sure 99% of crimes against women are committed by men but some men actually get treated badly by their girlfriends and some others get REJECTED (gasp) and that is SO MUCH WORSE. I am so glad you are standing up for men's rights. Your parents must be so proud.

Oh I am not! I am commending your bravery in supporting men, who have historically been discriminated against. It's a woman's world after all.

And I would suggest that you read about feminism before making ridiculous statements but something tells me you don't like to read. You can have one of your cool male friends read you the definition. They are so much smarter than you, of course.

Honestly i agree that ppl often misinterpret feminism and don realize that it is about equality rather than women trampling over men but the Indian film industry (as well as the films they make) is majorly sexist..If Bollywood was pro-women, we wouldn't be seeing films like R.Rajkumar where a girl is referred to as maal or those various other films where the girl is nothing but a damsel in distress..Am not talking about the situation prevailing in the industry ( which is majorly sexist anyway) since you are only talking about what is shown in films..So yeah, while i agree with the perception that ppl misuse the term feminism and take it too far, a lot of films made in India ( all languages included) are majorly sexist..

^I highly doubt you are a woman. Probably a guy posing as a girl online.

Women who bash feminism are the worst type of creatures. They want to benefit from the gains feminism has made while currying favor with men. They benefit from the misogyny by kissing up to men with the usual "see, I am not a feminazi!! I am so much better than them!"

You think women would have even had the right to vote or drive or do so many things without feminists striving to achieve those things?

But some women would rather use the misogyny to their advantage to kiss up to men instead about how *different* they are from other women and how much better. It's downright shameless.
