It is an intriguing question, could human civilization be heading back to matriarchy?

Real world Human civilization? Nope.


Human civilization in Star Trek (specifically STD)? Yup. It's a current trend in some Hollywood media (specifically in Sci-fi, you'll see it in STD, Star Wars TLJ, Lost in Space and Doctor Who), but just like many trends in Hollywood in won't last. It's just the current issue that some are pushing in the industry.

Real world Human civilization?

Sure. People gotta get tired of bullshit sooner or later.

 

[Kane_Steel]

Let's just say the patriarchy is in no danger of collapsing in the real world.

Not commenting whether that's a good or bad thing, but that's the reality.

 

[ITDUDE]

And I for one welcome our female overlords!

 

[Refuge]

I suspect the patriarchy will regroup to ostensibly support women, just those that fit the new ideal of a woman. It's less about gender as it is about agenda.

I think the future is half and half.

How long will that actually take to work toward? I don't know.

You're really behind the times. Mon Mothma was back in 1983.

Oh if only Mon Mothma talked down to Han Solo the same way as Admiral Gender Studies did with Po, that would be something to see.

But instead Mon was nothing more that an exposition delivery character onscreen.

Amusingly, certain groups would prefer the future to be completely gender neutral and non-binary.

I wonder if the human race will eventually evolve towards that outcome. Especially if future women no longer need to carry children, and babies are grown in labs. Interesting to imagine.

You mean the same Poe who disobeyed a direct order from General Organa, his superior, to disengage from the Dreadnought attack? Yeah, if only there was an attitude he had that needlessly endangered the lives of those under his command, which he deserved to get rebuked for having....

 

[Kane_Steel]

Yep. I wonder why he was written that way...

 

[CorporalCaptain]

lulz

So you're conceding that Admiral Holdo was not out of line....

 

[Mudd]

You'd have to ask the man who wrote him that way.

No one was out of line within the context of TLJ. #girlpower

Kathleen Kennedy's lapdog Rian Johnson.

I wonder how different TLJ would have been if someone like Kevin Feige was producing.

But I'm sure we still would have gotten Admiral Gender Studies.

 

[CorporalCaptain]

Girls can't come to the clubhouse, eh?
