You jumped to the defense, when you didn't need to protect her.
She was not just handed a random Tshirt she didn't know about and her and friends got caught in a photo shoot.... that's not what happend.

Even if everything you said was 100% correct, I would still think it was legitimately insane that it bothered you.  

Supporting women does not hurt men. 

>Kathleen Kennedy and the students did not wear the shirts for the Nike campaign

They didn't have to. No one was claiming that. The festival is for women film makers, and they used slogans and sayings to support women film makers. 

>The very similar "The future is female" phrase has been tweeted by the head of the school before Nike announced its campaign.

Not even the same phrase. The Future Is Female is a feminist phrase from the 1970's.  

She runs Starwars..... its NOT for support of women, that are film makers.

You cannot just wear and say things, about "the force" when you manage the IP of starwars.
Imagine if George Lucas wore a shirt that said "the force/future is male".... why you be against that?


1) The Force has no gender. It's a supernatural bodyless power that any Force user can tap into. 
2) If the Force is entirely female, then the Dark Side is toxic female energy, effectively going against the "pure and wholesome female" narrative.

"Not even the same phrase. The Future Is Female is a feminist phrase from the 1970's"

Thats the entire point, and I was aware of that.
Its all leading to the same place, coming from the same place.
This is why the "force is female" shirt stuff is bad, and why if you run billion dollar's IP, you shouldn't be pulling feminist stunts like that.
