"Which movie should we see? Life of Pets or Ghostbusters?"
"I heard Ghostbusters was really bad."
"Really? It just came out. Who already saw it and thought it was bad?"
"I don't think they have seen it yet, but everybody says it's bad."
"Huh. Did you wonder why they are so sure it's bad if they haven't actually seen it?"
"No. I guess I could ask."
"Well, I know why some people are saying it's bad. Maybe your friends are saying it for the same reason."
"Maybe."
"Well, some people are mad because the Ghostbusters are women in the new movie."
"WHAT? WHY?"
"The first Ghostbusters had all men and the new one is all women. There are some people who think that ruins the movie."
"THAT'S SO DUMB, MOM."
"I think it is, yes."
"Women can do anything men can do. Actually, they can do more because women can give birth. Women probably make better Ghostbusters than men because they're tough enough to have a baby!"
"I'm not saying they're right. I'm just saying there are some people who don't like that the Ghostbusters are women."
"Well, those people need to shut their mouths until they've seen the movie."
"So I take it you want to go see Ghostbusters?"
"I WANT TO SEE IT TWICE."
Thanks for lighting a fire under Miss Alexis, sexist jerks of the world.
