    How to respond to the "you look like a man" comments?

    @toosmartforyou01 I really enjoy using humor/sarcasm to respond to people who bring you down. Maybe it's not the high route but I think it's justifiable toward people who make low-rent comments about someone's body. Maybe you can make sarcastic jokes about growing a beard because you've become...

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @robert4963 Sure. I also think the past Oscars reflected a huge group of talent that I haven't really seen before. I get the notion that a lot of actors/actresses are cast based on what they represent rather than what skills they bring to the table. The best recent example I can come up with is...

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @robert4963 That could be a compelling argument, but I don't think most Hollywood actors are really that great at acting to begin with.

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @earthfae That's fine, I just was looking to see if there was more than one minority with actual speaking parts and significant roles. I've seen too many movies with a token black character or having bunch of brown people as extras and calling it diversity.

    Flaky friend gave me newfound motivation and self respect (plus I’m 7 lbs down!)

    @hillsong2014 I would not be able to tolerate any adult who does this. I’m not the most punctual person ever but making someone wait for you on a daily basis is ridiculous, especially if it’s for their schedule. It makes total sense to start your workout whenever you want to. I don’t think it’s...

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @earthfae I'm not familiar with the storyline and haven't seen the movie, but what do you mean by diversity in the group? Were they just extras with no speaking parts?

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @nathalie_hyacint I have not. I looked at the pictures here and did a brief IMDB cast search. Edit: I'm trying to say that I have only based my observation on the pictures here and a quick internet search. Not that I'm trying to make an accusation based off no evidence.

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @bellavoce7 Thanks for the info. I did want to see it after hearing rave reviews and wanting to support a female director. I'm trying to allocate my funds toward more diverse movies rather than the typical nonsense that has a token minority actor (have seen too many mediocre movies). But...

    @bellavoce7 Really? This makes me want to skip out on the movie.

    @eri_18 Thank you. I'm fine with the down votes but just surprised I'd receive so many from people on a sub like this. I didn't think I said anything that controversial.

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @cj Yeah, that's what I saw when I looked up the wiki article about it since I know nothing about the plot. I googled the cast and only white actors/actresses showed up so I guess I mistakenly assumed there were only white people in the movie.

    [FLUFF] ‘Wonder Woman’ recruited actual athletes, fighters as powerful Amazonians

    @axlelol Really great to see athletes, but I was wondering why the cast isn't racially diverse? I'm not really familiar with the Amazonian aesthetic. Edit #2. I am going to assume there are a bunch of movie promotors/bots that are not liking us talking about race in relation to this particular...
