       @dave 1. It’s a fictional show. Get over it. Pushing your politics to be reflected in your entertainment as a form of pseudo activism has to be the pinnacle of privilege, decadence, and late capitalism.2. Nathan Rabin, who coined the term, has stated its been so overused that it is now meaningless.  3. The term is now so cliche’, tiresome, and sexist in its own right becaue it implies there is a “right way” to be a woman. Retire mpdg; it’s b.s.
