And okay not everyone thinks that all superheroes should be male

Exactly my point. Your argument is outdated. Kitchen jokes are a reference to history which would consider it as outdated as well. And "not everything thinks all superheroes should be male" is an understatement.

This is a strawman. If you really think so, can you site a post of mine that supports this claim?

I actually have watched Sun Vulcan. The first 4 episodes at least. My problem with it is the heavy narration which takes minutes. Then it refers to countries as Country A and Country B rather than actual countries. Everything else is great though.. so far. The characters interest me and so is the storyline.

And yes, I do have the impression that everyone who does not like all-male teams are feminists. Everyone I've talked to that has this opinion always brings up feminist-like mindsets.

Anyway, how is asking for sale figures not related to your earlier post? Yes, Sun Vulcan was a few years ago but your argument that an all-male merchandise hasn't been proven either. How sure are you that girls will not buy boy-related toys. The fact that they enjoy a series most boys like means they'd most likely buy boy-related toys. It's a big possibility they won't mind an all-male team at all.

I meant that it's fine if other shows targeted towards children want to have an all-male or all-female team, but I don't think it's right for Super Sentai.

I already stated my personal reason for preferring a team with both sexes, but I will reiterate it for you. I personally think that this allows for more variety within the cast. Something that's nice to have in a franchise with a lot of repeating archetypes.

I don't see how Goranger lacking a giant punching robot is at all relevant to this discussion, seeing as how I never said I was against every kind of change to the formula. Besides, they still have plenty of vehicles to suit my fancy.


Since you seem so adamant about mentioning the new Ghostbusters and the female Thor, I'll tell you what I honestly think of them. They are shameless attempts by their companies to cater to this new wave of media-focused feminism. Speaking as somebody who is a Ghostbusters fan, I really wasn't fond of this attempt to "diversify" Ghostbusters. Particularly when it was done a lot better in "Extreme Ghostbusters" back in 1997.

Thank you.
Ok, I'll give you a better example.
GoRanger started with 4 men and 1 woman targeting an 80% male audience and 20% female audience. Do you think Changeman (was it Changeman?) was wrong to change it a 3 men 2 women team? I mean, they should be the same from the very beginning right?

If you ask me, no. They can try anything out for a particular season then revert back to another formula on the other. Say.. 5 men, 0 woman on one season then back to 3 men and 2 women on the next then 4 men 1 woman on the season after. It's Sentai. They change numbers every season or so.

And thank you for your opinion with Ghostbusters and Thor. I was fishing to getting to know you with those posts actually. Glad you're strong with your opinion.

I agree with most of your post. Though, I'm curious what group is doing that backlash.
