the female-empowerment film "Thelma & Louise"

Suicide is female empowerment??? Man, I must have missed that one... ok women you want empowerment, you need to run away from your husband who loves you, refuse help from him, threaten the police, blow up a gas truck, cheat on your husband and drive off a cliff, all because your old biddy friend says its ok...

Man if that's female empowerment, I thank God I'm a guy.

I'm glad I'm not the only one who hated that movie....They HAD to go on the trap..they HAD to kill the guy...they HAD to rob the banks...they HAD to drive off the cliff. That's a great message for girls...that you have no responsibility in your life to make good decisions, and then blame everything on men. I was furious when I walked out of that movie. I went with a girlfriend who was all gaga over it...she ceased being my friend not long after that...guess why? She told me that after going to a shrink for a year, she realized that she had been molested as a child...that her memory had been suppressed and that was the reason for all her problems. I told her to grow up, I walked out the door and never came back.
