I'm almost offended that I tried to make a substanent nuanced comment that had almost nothing to do with feminism(an area I was actually trying to avoid) ... and the response I get is "this is what a feminist movie really is..."

I don't really care if it's feminist or not. All I said in my original comment was I wasn't a feminist. I didn't really talk about feminism much at all. I even said that Wonder Woman isn't really progressing anything as a film, and gave a much more nuanced answer to what possible progressive effect it could have. I can't say I really care about labels. 

Also, Mad Max, and for the most part Ghostbusters, were not feminist films.

Okay nevermind. :P Sorry.

Anyway, where do you, as a male outsider to the movement, get off defining it? Just curious! That just seems kind of arrogant to me.

People don't need to be a club carrying member to criticize that club or have an equal opinion on issues related to that club. That's just a very lazy justification in why you shouldn't have to defend an opinion.
