Dear men who are afraid to see ‘Little Women’: You can do this.

To the men who love “Little Women”: Hello! You are not alone. There are many of you, and you have all been emailing me to confess, as if it were a shameful secret, your deep affection for a 150-year-old story about four girls growing up in Civil War-era Massachusetts, making currant jam and accidentally burning their dresses in the fireplace.

Like Lena Dunham?

[from occupied ga]

Yes I’m afraid. I’m afraid of wasting several hours of my life that I will never get back in extreme boredom. I’m afraid that I will give money to a bunch of leftists who hold me in contempt. I’m afraid I’ll fall asleep in the theater
and spill my soda on myself. In short I’m never going to watch drivel like this if I can help it.

[yarddog]

That reminds me. One of the hottest (and prettiest) girls I ever knew was 5 feet and 100 pounds.

[DMZFrank]

Why does this imbecile assume that men are “afraid” to see this dreck? I think that most of us are simply sick and tired of all of the woke, intersectionalist, PC bullying and pathetic attempts at thought control by remaking classics into propaganda screeds.

Plus much of it is just plain old BORING!!!!

[Chode]

name me one reason i would WANT to see it you stooopid cow you...

[Ouderkirk]

Who is afraid to see this tripe?

I am not the target demographic for this film...why bother seeing it. Even if I am the target, the subject matter is of zero interest.

[Jonty30]

Knowing feminists, if I go see Little Women, they will have me up on pedophilia charges.

[mrsmith]

LOL!
I read “Little Men” when I was young.
Enjoyed it.

This is just crazy. “Little Men” should be read by this author.

[Buttons12]

I’ve never understood the appeal of Little Women. Not the book, not any movie version. Painfully boring.

[KittyKares]

I don’t even want to see it, and I’m a female.
I liked the “Richard Jewell” film, though. Very relevant to today.

[Secret Agent Man]

they write this for the two non-gay men who like this.

[steve8714]

Many movies have been remade too often. We’ve seen three this year. None worth a shit.

[DannyTN]

Like Lena Dunham? No, do you like Lena Dunham?

[heavy metal]

i’m not afraid of little women...
it’s the loud voiced big mouth i refuse to deal with...
big difference...

[EvilCapitalist]

I was using her as an example of a BIG woman. NO. I don’t like Lena Dunham. She’s a disgusting slob.

[Trailerpark Badass]

Men emailing her about Little Women? BS. Leftists lie with every breath they take.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

👍 Will look it up.

[DannyTN]

LOL

I knew what you meant.

Actually, I was thinking bigger than her.
She got fat for a while, but I think she has brought it back down.
And dang you for making me look up her picture.

I’ve lowered my physical standards as I’ve gotten older.
So I’d be willing to take a plump girl if she had her head right.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Is it as good as The Incredibles?

[Ruy Dias de Bivar]

***Does it have people trying to make due as the world burns as in War and Peace or Dr. Zhivago?***

I just finished War and Peace. Excellent read! The Russian movie version of 1966 follows the book very well, but still had to leave out lots as the movie is 8 hours, and if they had filmed the entire book it would have been 80 hours.
