What is a woman?
Hey Tim, just noting that I reverted your edit because it seemed to be WP:OR. There might be some sources out there discussing that, but I don't have the capacity to handle researching anything surrounding this topic anytime soon. There is some discussion on the talk page you may not have seen that might be useful :)/. ThadeusOfNazereth(he/they)Talk to Me! 20:48, 17 June 2022 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I can see the point, but I looked and thought "those citations are kind of lousy, they're all from people who had made up their mind before they even saw it, I wonder what the mainstream said?" And I discovered that the mainstream totally ignored the film. Now there's a quote immediately above saying something like that from a culture warrior at National Review so maybe that's good enough.
 * Here's the real problem: That section is has the standard title "Critical reception" but in this case the title is wrong, it's pretty well just "Ideological reception".
 * I might be prepared to argue that the *absence* of coverage from reliable sources ought to be cite-able - it's easily checked, just like a high-quality reliable-source cite. Anyhow, no feelings hurt. Tim Bray (talk) 21:02, 17 June 2022 (UTC)
