"Wonder Woman" may be a feminist icon, but some male moviegoers aren't happy about some scheduled women-only screenings of the film.
The controversy began when the famous Alamo Drafthouse cinema in Austin, Texas, announced it would be hosting a screening of the new movie, which stars Gal Gadot as the superhero.
"Apologies, gentlemen, but we're embracing our girl power and saying 'No Guys Allowed' for one special night at the Alamo Ritz," the announcement read. "And when we say 'People Who Identify As Women Only,' we mean it. Everyone working at this screening -- venue staff, projectionist, and culinary team -- will be female."

Gadot stars as Diana Prince/Wonder Woman, a DC comics character that first came on the scene in the 1940s. Since then, the character has been a superhero mainstay in comic books and had a small screen run in a 1970s series starring Lynda Carter.
if they wanted to snag tickets to that screening.
Shouldn't that be if they want to snatch tickets....? Jus' sayin'.....

Only during an election . The rest of the time not so much . Here is Katy Perry pulling a "Private Benjamin " but no matter how glorified the scene is depicted , the reality is women just don't make effective marines . Just pathetic weaklings ...

Well actually I could say the same thing about some of the garbage that you seed.
(But. being the gentleman & a scholar that I am-- I won't!
)

That is your next misperception.
That is your next misperception.
False-- it is actually my current misperception! (So don't misunderestimate my misperceptions!)
P.S: My next underestimated misperception will be even more entertaining, bringing yet more light and joy to this hollowed and many veneered website-- stay tuned!
The women only showing is clearly sexist segregation, but I don't really care. If you need a safe space, indulge. The real world awaits.
Women are ok with discrimination as long as they're doing the discriminating. When is the all male or all white or all black showing at this segregated theatre?
The article should be titled "wonder woman brings segregated theatres back to Texas to the delight of man-hating female bigots."
This is simply not the Texas way. One can only hope that Gov. Abbott will send in the Rangers to quell this disruption of harmonious life.
What about Transgender movie goers? are they allowed in the theater with the kitties?
On the subject of discrimination, do you want to see an example of drained brains?
