I have been trying to interview her before boyhood came out and she has to apologize to the press for talking politics because its not her job to its a politicians job to talk politics. I just don't want entertainers talking politics and politicians 16d0talking about entertainment they just sound stupid. I am okay with people thinking differently about politics if you knew me personally you can tell me all the people in politics that you hate but just as long as its off camera.

All the women attacking Patricia are jealous- because she's beautiful and rich and talented. All the men attacking her are threatened.
ALL! This is a blanket and generalized statement to make. What exactly are MEN threatened by? That Arquette is going to take over the world and make men second class citizens. Is that how you perceive yourself, in our modern western society, where women are afforded the same equality, (which doesn't and never has really existed for ALL genders) and respect as men? This equality thing she is going on about, is only a misguided ideal. Does it ALL boil down to envy and insecurity for not being born a man?

Even more telling is the poster's idea that "All the women attacking Patricia are jealous- because she's beautiful and rich and talented." Apparently in this poster's mind all women are superficial and are also incapable of thinking and researching for themselves and reaching different conclusions than Ms. Arquette. Doesn't that low opinion of women seem a bitwhat's the word I'm looking for?misogynistic?
Anyway, women are easily the most privileged group in the western world right now. I'm all for equality, but in order for it to become a reality women will have to either give up the privileges they currently enjoy or allow those privileges to be extended to men. -

That's why 'misogyny' doesn't really exist. Are women who despise other women, misogynist too? It is a card that gets played, when they are desperate to prove that MEN are keeping them down and won't acknowledge that women are 'special', superior and entitled beings over men.
I make a claim a female is being 'sexist' and a misandrist, then it is not a 'truism' and doesn't even exist in their minds. It is fine for them too make claims about 'inequality' and sexist values, as that becomes real, for some kind of strange entitlements they deserve over men. Of course, they are poor put upon women and have earned the right to b!t@h about MEN, due to our oppressive treatment of them. What about the many many, poor put upon men, who have to deal with their overbearing, domineering, masculine wives and female partners? -

There are two types of people: dominant and submissive..I think that, in order for a family to function properly, there has to be ONE PERSON who gets the last word, whether that be the man or the woman.
Don't forget the 'assertive' and 'passive aggressive' personality types too. The lines can get blurred though and can oscillate.
I wonder if Arquette is the dominant one in her family? Maybe not and the only opportunity she had to voice her opinion was on stage, when she finally had the stage. She should remain submissive, as she doesn't know what she's saying. -

Typical privileged ignorance. She said that "people of colour" and "gays" should need to start fighting for women. As if white women (whom feminism is exclusively geared toward) aren't already the most privileged group in society. And then you come on here asking us if we have lives, or if we realize there are important things going on in the world. Well
DO YOU?
You stupidly and blindly support the feminist ideology and the silly notion that American women are somehow "unequal" beings in society, yet
YET
, millions of women in third world countries have zerocount 'emZERO rights whatsoever. If you privileged types would get the hell over yourselves long enough and get off the soap boxes, you'd stop thinking about yourselves long enough to fight for REAL causes and not ones like the non-existent wage gap.
Seriously, smh.

Are you lost in limbo somewhere
zeligtony
? Life must be very challenging and difficult for you, having a pea for a brain. What are the important things going on in the world, that you feel have been unaddressed? Equality for women in the west, that doesn't even exist, is not one of them. -

Clearly you're just a miserable bully that resorts to tactless insults because they fail to provide a decent, well rounded argument.
Well I guess I am just coming from the same tactless space that Arquette was, with her unfocused and self-absorbed comments. Like attracts like.
