I'm sick of the PC brigade appointing themselves as the culture police, and the idea that just because you are a man you have an easy ride in film is utter crap. Some of my favourite male directors were outsiders and had to fight to get their films made at the start, only experiencing success through dogged persistence. And Geena Davis didn't exactly advance the cause with Cutthroat Island: 'one of the most expensive box office flops of all time.'.
So much film and TV these days stinks of being made with an agenda. No worries though: I'll simply stop watching, and choose to consume culture that doesn't put political correctness above all other considerations.
