Basically some Swedish theatres (editted for Caedus) are implementing a gender equality scale for movies.

"The entire Lord of the Rings trilogy, all Star Wars movies, The Social Network, Pulp Fiction and all but one of the Harry Potter movies fail this test," said Ellen Tejle, the director of Bio Rio, an art-house cinema in Stockholm's trendy Södermalm district."

This has to be a joke...

You've posted on this subject before and you keep extrapolating what one group is suggesting or talking about and what the country is doing. The country isn't doing anything, a certain group of theatres are creating a scale but it means nothing.

Its not restricting anything , but that the fact that some theatres are actually doing this is laughable.

Who cares.

In other news.

A school near me has banned touching.

It's irrelevant. It has no effect on anything, it's not sanctioned or supported by the Swedish government yet in your post it, an outside observer would think it is the country and people of Sweden doing this.

I literally just said it effects nothing, pay attention man! I know you can read!

If it effects nothing it is irrelevant.

I thought it was interesting and therefore I posted it. This is the off-topic thread isn't it?
