Wu can't grasp the concept of keeping your career and political views separate? Or using your influence in a subtle manner rather than belching it all over twitter? Person of Colored me surprised.

>Woman feminists are hunted for sport.

You wish someone would hunt you.

Also when did JJ complain about Rey figures?

There is no many figures of Rey because, somehow, the studio considers the fact that Rey is the one with force powers a spoiler (thought Disney Infinite, one of the important projects for the company, has her) hence the only real to sell her initally as a toy is in her plain sand dessert costume. Given how deeply Abrams is involved in that kind of stuff (mistery box BS), I would assume that was just Abrams being desingenous

"Male feminists are praised. Women feminists are hunted for sport."

What sort of mental gymnastics do you have to pull to get this? Who would ever say "I think it's great that that man is so supportive of equality and more power for women... who should all shut their mouths and let the men talk." What??? Wu's tweet only makes sense on a tautological level, and it leaves a few key points out. It should read, "Male feminists are praised (by feminists). Women feminists are hunted for sport (by anti-feminists)." Yet, by leaving out those bits, Wu is trying to promote the idea that there is some sort of double standard, when really you just have two broad, ideologically distinct groups with different ideas.

Besides, I always thought that male feminists were, by and large, called cucked manginas, not praised, but maybe I'm wrong.

Oh, and one last thing: Has anyone else noticed that people who promote feminist ideas tend to use "male" as an adjective for men, but "women" as an adjective for women? So you have "male feminists" or "male engineers*," but "women feminists" or "women engineers." Just something I've noticed lately.

*Also, I think we should call male engineers "mengineers." Wu, you can start using that one to complain about misogynists in the engineering industry.

To add to your well thought out dialogue- most "male feminists" I've seen tend to get shat on by the "real" feminists (aka female ones), and treated as some sort of sub-human species. They're often accused of "just doing it to get laid"
