Q&A Forum - September 2013 (best of Elise)

Screen 19 of 28

According to the one site, “Stiller and Roach have been plotting this picture for several years.” Perhaps the motivation for this movie was the onslaught of articles in newspapers and magazines about the societal trend toward female dominance. One cannot escape reading about women gaining in power and out-performing men. There have even been some serious articles dedicated to a possible future where men will become obsolete. I can see how a creative mind would wonder what such a future would be like. Unfortunately it looks like a creative comedic mind is going to focus on the humor of such a possibility. It would be much more interesting if someone did a serious movie about a future where women are in charge of all facets of society. But the sad truth is that the male ego cannot fathom the concept of women in charge outside the realm of a science fiction story or a comedy. And of course the demise of men would have to be self-induced.

Still, comedy or not, if there are some strong FemDom女性支配 — female domination overtones in the movie, the potential will be there to stir the submissive顺从 — willing to obey nature of the male audience. Comedies such as “My Tutor”, “Real Men” and “One Night at McCools” triggered submissive顺从 — willing to obey desires within males when they were not expecting it. All it takes is one good FemDom女性支配 — female domination scene to stimulate those psychological triggers of visually oriented males which in turn will bring a man’s submissive顺从 — willing to obey nature to the forefront of his consciousness.
