Donna was like a real person, annoyances included.<br /><br />I guess women characters gained a lot of complexity in the early days of feminism (1970s) and have been holding steady since then in American pop culture. <br />I watch almost no TV so can't say, but there're still few movies that can pass the Bechdel Test: <br />1. There are more than one woman character, <br />2. who talk to each other<br />3. about something other than men.Frescahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15323129046492056942noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-23147758237641332222009-04-27T22:35:00.000-05:002009-04-27T22:35:00.000-05:00I have to stand up for Dr. Who to say that the wom...I have to stand up for Dr. Who to say that the women on that show have definitely improved since the 1960's. Come on! Donna! She rocks. I liked Rose and Martha...and they too are a big improvement over the women in the 1960's shows. <br /><br />I also have to say that the women in the 60's Brit shows like Dr. Who (Sarah Jane) and the gals on Blake 7 are less lame and more fully developed than their American counterparts of the same time period.<br /><br />Honestly I don't watch enough American TV to know how women in Sci-Fi shows have evolved. The Firefly females were alright--though still a bit overly attractive. ( Seems like American actresses have to be beautiful or ugly/fat enough to be "character actresses"...how about ordinary for a change?)binknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7229875339727095184.post-81454320579204541762009-04-27T14:24:00.000-05:002009-04-27T14:24:00.000-05:00I'm glad I'm not alone in my insanity, Annika!

I have, seriously, never been this enamoured of a man's general *shape* before. Kirk's curves, you know? There's a scene in Trouble With Tribbles where Kirk is talking to McCoy and the back of his head, his neck, his back, and his butt form this long, fascinating curve. Then there's his upper arms and shoulders, of course, and his back, that's triangular, yet rounded. Even the shape of his head is sexy. It's insane.Annika the Hopelessly Charmednoreply@blogger.com
