Left Wing Film Critic Calls Gal Gadot a "Superbabe;" Left Wing SJWs Freak Out; Right Wing Scolds Join In on the Freak-Out
The real conservatives, I mean. The ones who echo and parrot their left-wing confreres and Bestest Fwiends and confirm the speech codes the left has merely proposed.
Here's the original review. Yes, he does commit the Grave Sin of noting that a beautiful woman is in fact beautiful. Later, the left was revolting. Well, wait, they're always revolting. What I should have said they were in frothing lunacy over the review. This of course led to Stage 3 of the Contrived Lunatic Shut-in Outrage Script: the forcible confession and ritual rending of garments. Here's his embarrassing grovel of an apology and a beg that he not be cast Out of the Tribe.To begin at the beginning: When I wrote that Gadot had found a "perfect blend of superbabe-in-the-woods innocence and mouthiness," it was a play on the phrase "babe in the woods." And she is literally super. But "babe" is going to be salacious no matter the context, and "superbabe" is just asking for trouble. I have no idea, though, what the problem is with "mouthiness." It’s a word I’ve used all my life to describe people -- both male and female -- who don’t sit and take guff from others, but give it right back. Pompous British higher-ups (all men) tell Diana what to do, and she tells them in essence to stuff it. That's mouthiness, and I couldn't enjoy it more.Good Lord, grow a pair. The woman was model. The definition of a "model" is "someone who is so good-looking that people pay her large sums of money to just stand around just looking good-looking." Or: "Hey, you're good looking, let me pay you money to wear these stupid clothes I made to make them look good looking just by being physically near you." As for "mouthiness" -- I took it to mean "firecracker," like Lois Lane. But I guess all women now are supposed to be "mouthy," so to call any particular woman "mouthy" is to ... I don't know. Imply that not all women are mouthy. (Which most women aren't, as most men aren't.) Mark Hemingway objected to the fauxtrage, and especially to the "Maoist" vibe that Edelstein's forced confession emitted.
Edelstein made the grave mistake, however, of writing a review that was more concerned with the film's mythical Amazon warrior than the all too real social justice warriors who make writing anything fun or provocative on the internet a de facto crime. Edelstein initially responded to the criticisms, somewhat understandably, with a defensive Facebook post that noted he did not think "describing the appearance of the leading actress would be off limits." Alas, the Council of Wrongthink was not appeased, and so today we have a grand apologia from Edelstein that is both unneeded and an exercise in Maoist compliance.... Calling Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot a "babe," in any context seems nothing less than playful and accurate. Is it offensive to state the obvious? Edelstein calls the movie a star turn for Gadot and praises her performance, but we can't be so delusional as to think she wasn't also cast because she's hot?He later quotes one of Edelstein's female co-workers for "giving the game away" about the real objection here: that Superman For Gurlz wasn't being treated as the politically-momentous Event of Great Import that the Maenads demanded it be treated with. (I can't quote that-- you'll just have to click Hemingway's link.) So here we have the churning confluence of two frantic rivers here: The feminist Speech Police, and the feminist Nerdbois, who are as reverent about female comic book and Star Wars character as your average ISIS soldier is about Mohammad. Nerdgurlz have managed to take the already annoying-on-steroids frothing moonbattery of Nerdbois and somehow inject it with even more hormone-drenched detachment from reality, perspective, and emotional centering. To review the film as anything except a Towering Work of Staggering Genius is to Hate Women. This is their Redemption for Ghostbusters, and they won't have you criticizing their Amazon Jesus. This film is to be only viewed as a Breakthrough Political Tract of Good Feelz for Gurlz. And btw, I don't even mind girls being excited to "finally have one." I have long liked the Wonder Woman character. Though her backstory and exact power-set tend to change frequently (in the 70s, she had no powers, and became just a judo-using spy), there is one aspect of her that remains constant: She's really, really, really hot. She's a demigod, for crying out loud. Zeus was her father, and Zeus don't bother changing into a golden swan for no 7s and 8s. (By the way, while I do hear the movie is "pretty good," I also hear it's just about as good as an mediocre Marvel movie (Red Letter Media so said). So while it's a big, big step up for DC, it's not a hugely important superhero movie, and of course, no comic book movie is a particularly important movie. But it's now being claimed as a Key Feminist Text, so we're all supposed to worship it for just being a good, fun popcorn movie starring a hot woman.) One very important TV critic who for some reason is given a political platform who objected to Mark Hemingway's defense of calling a beautiful woman "beautiful" was super-conservative Jon Podhoretz:
It was disgusting, Mark. And bizarre. Read it again.
— John Podhoretz (@jpodhoretz) June 6, 2017
Wonder Woman’s eccentric creator was born near Boston, Massachusetts, in 1893 and was brought up by his mother Annie and her sisters. The matriarchal influence rubbed off and Marston became an early supporter of women’s rights. He was fiercely intelligent and went on to study law and then psychology at Harvard, where in 1915 he married his childhood sweetheart Sadie Elizabeth Holloway, who he called Betty. A lawyer and psychologist, she had observed that her blood pressure rose whenever she was angry or excited, and carried out some ground- breaking research — which Marston later passed off as his own, and which led to the development of the lie detector machine. But being the sex obsessive that he was, he found the gadget was useful for more than just finding fibbers. It could also be used to measure women’s erotic arousal when they were watching raunchy films — and he concluded that brunettes were friskier than blondes. When America entered World War One he offered his research on blood pressure to the government, and though there was little appetite for his invention, he was assigned to the US Army School of Military Psychology. There he met librarian Marjorie W Huntley, a women’s rights campaigner, who set his own pulse racing. A believer in the psychic power of the orgasm, she became his lover and introduced him to bondage. After the war, Marston took her back to his marital home in Massachusetts, where she and the couple became what Marjorie later described as “a threesome”.A lot of Wonder Women covers featured bound women -- Wonder Woman binding another hot woman. A hot villainess binding Wonder Woman. Groups of shadowy men binding a frightened (but maybe excited!) Wonder Woman. This isn't obscure, really. Maybe also not common knowledge, but well-known enough that someone would be right to note, in passing, that the visual kinkiness of Wonder Woman's early days has been suppressed in a new film.

Saw it Thursday evening; it was good, best of the DCEU by far. I wouldn't say it is better than "a lot" of the Marvel films. It is on par with the Marvel films, I will say. It's not Civil War. It's not Winter Soldier. It's not Avengers. But, it's solid.
I didn't think it is as AMAZING as many other people are proclaiming it to be. But, I am one of the few that that it was pretty good but not great, so odds are decent you will enjoy it.
If you like period pieces, you will like it. I love period pieces, but I still prefer First Avenger to Wonder Woman.

It's obviously different because men are vile subhuman creatures who exist only to work themselves to death to provide for women, and they should know their (inferior) place. Men do not look at women without permission, but should be grateful that a woman deigns to look at a man, no matter how ugly, mean, or stupid that woman may be.

Truthfully, Trump is far more "johnny come lately" on issues like immigration that Session has been fighting since forever as a Senator.

I can't believe this commentary is taking place from the SJWs, but at the same time I shouldn't be surprised. They are too dumb to see that Wonder Woman's physical allure is every bit as much a weapon as everything else she has available to her.
This episode should confirm to one and all that the SJWs of the Right and the Left (though especially the latter) see human nature as a disease that needs to be cured, through force and violence if necessary.

no, no, you are doing it wrong. the crazy quotient does not factor into whether she is hot or not. similarly the lieklihood of closing the deal has nothing to do with hot or not either.
hot or not has two components. first the purely aesthetic. hot or not? second the personality. personality can probably add 5 points on a 10 point scale but it can subtract 9 points on a 10 point scale.

I've never seen that in real life, only in old movies. And there's a magazine that has a "who wore it better" photo spread.
IRL we women say to each other, "You have a great fashion sense!" Same thing if we wear the same colors or something.
Posted by: NaughtyPine at June 06, 2017 07:14 PM (G8B7r)
Well, you live in the real world. As the media constantly tells us, the only people that matter are New Yorkers, who apparently believe that fashion sense is a zero-sum game.

Two women wearing the same outfit, and someone tells one of the women that she looks great and doesn't say so to the other? Human nature.
One of the earliest lessons I learned in retail is that when a group of women approach the counter for the purchase of alcoholic beverages and you card one, you had better card them all.

Posted by: yankeefifth at June 06, 2017 07:33 PM (cPsPa)
hot or not has two components. first the purely aesthetic. hot or not? second the personality. personality can probably add 5 points on a 10 point scale but it can subtract 9 points on a 10 point scale.
Posted by: yankeefifth at June 06, 2017 07:28 PM (cPsPa)
Whether I use the decimal or binary scale, I'm rating purely on hotness. Personality doesn't enter into it at all.
That's because it's strictly aesthetic and theoretical. It's not like I will ever meet or bed the woman in question. If that were the case, then of course personality would assume tremendous importance.

On Wall Street and in Manhattan business circles, Mr. Kasowitz is well known -- even though he, much like his high-profile client, has never reached the inner circle of the establishment in New York City. Since starting his firm in 1993, he has been more of a scrappy upstart than a member of the city's white-shoe legal machine.
He is, for lack of a better comparison, the Donald Trump of lawyering. (Though he tweets a lot less.)
Mr. Kasowitz is very different from the lawyer whose name gets bandied about Washington as the model counselor for the challenges Mr. Trump may face: Theodore B. Olson, an old Washington wise man who represented George W. Bush in Bush v. Gore, which went to the Supreme Court. Mr. Olson would later become the solicitor general.
A walk through Mr. Kasowitz's office at Kasowitz Benson Torres in Midtown shows magazine covers and framed pictures of him. He's quick to tell you about his latest accomplishment and never shies from publicity. The first paragraph of the online biography on his firm's website, before mentioning any of his work, cites the dozens of media outlets that have written about him, and how they have described him as the "toughest lawyer on Wall Street," an "uberlitigator" and "the toughest of the tough guys."
A spokesman for Mr. Kasowitz said he was not giving interviews.
In case you didn't get the message, he likes a good fight, the nastier the better.
His firm's battles on Wall Street have become legend.

Aw, come on, "Roman Polanski" - that not what I meant.
She (or he, for that matter) isn't even born yet, and I was going for a play on the expression "bun in the oven." Buns baking in hot ovens are hot, but only if they've been in the oven for a long time. I was merely asking how far along George Clooney's wife is with her pregnancy.
I thought I was being clear, and I mistakenly thought I was being witty. For unintentionally implying that a fetus would be sexually attractive, I apologize.
I further apologize to anyone who tried to do the reverse of the half-plus-seven calculation with a negative number. This, too, was not my intent, and for this I am also remorseful.

You complain about how there are no guys interested in you, but you're not willing to put yourself out there to meet them. That's a problem. I'm not a social butterfly, but I make an effort to get out there and meet people. Also, having interests beyond Netflix and crosswords makes you interesting to guys. It may be something that the two of you can eventually share, or it may just be a sign that you're not going to end up on the couch all day or incessantly demanding his complete attention.

No, you've shown that a Wonder Woman movie done competently can be successful. This is not some proof that you can start cranking out box office hits where the lead is a girl. Your sample size for success is 1. And that 1 is frankly the biggest female superhero out there. It doesn't apply to others.
Now when Marvel puts out Captain Marvel that might be a success too and that will be a better indicator because she's a C-lister.
But just because Wonder Woman did good doesn't mean you can start firing up production on Black Widow, Black Cat, Black Canary, and Spiderwoman expecting a $500 Million box office just yet.

My son used to do that with our Golden Retriever. Also, he would on occasion borrow someone's baby. A good-looking strong healthy single man with a baby in a park is an automatic draw.
I say, be the person you want to meet. Do you want someone attractive? Take care with your appearance. Do you want someone who is kind? Be kind. Do you want someone who is financially secure? Get good at managing your money.
The best way to meet responsible single conservative men is at church. IMO

These Marxist goons spend time enforcing speech codes to exercise their power, to humiliate people. By getting you to deny objective reality they exert their power over you, they make you submit to them. Truth, lies, none of it matters. It is the forcing that is the point.
It is just like the bully, grabbing your head, and forcing you to say uncle while he squeezes. The point isn't to inflict pain. It isn't to say the word uncle, it is to force public submission.

A friend from college was amazingly successful with the ladies. Alas, too successful, and he was always looking for a bigger and better deal. As a consequence never settled down, and bitterly regrets missed opportunities. (He had one girlfriend who my wife and I thought was wonderful: beautiful, intelligent, loving, maternal (took care of horses and dogs), and crazy about him.
He asked me my opinion of her. I told him my opinion was irrelevant, but I thought she was a catch, and if he cared for her, pull the trigger.
He didn't, and regrets it now.
He's given up, thinking he's too old now, but I imparted my golden retriever idea to him as well. The funny thing is, he HAD one, and was heartbroken when the dog died. A golden retriever kind of says that its owner is also a kind, caring, affectionate type.

Bat. Sh*t. Cuh. Razy.
Drives around Hollywood or L.A. with a personalized tag that has something to do with it, and has no problem telling everyone she meets how she's the real-life GI Jane and who the movie is based on. Except the producers apparently credited the actual woman in an interview and it wasn't her.
Add to that some weird stuff with not knowing which patches (I'm not military so I apologize for not knowing the appropriate terms- thankfully I don't claim to be, either) to wear and where, and her story is bizarre as hell to read.
Oh, and she identifies as a man now and calls the lady who identified as the GI Jane inspiration her sister.

I agree. But you have to meet them somewhere else before they can sit on your couch. Maybe think of three or four traits that would appeal to you in a man, and then puzzle out where that kind of person might be found.
I never went to bars to find a guy because I wasn't particularly attracted to guys who spend their time in bars. So there are other ways.
Do you have a network of friends who might have siblings or cousins or next-door neighbors or something?

Verbally assaulting the police on top of that did lead to an arrest (for the physical assault).

Posted by: grammie winger - maranatha at June 06, 2017 08:06 PM (lwiT4)
Well put.
I feel badly for him too, but whenever there's an attractive woman about, he snaps into Casanova mode. Grinds my gears. That was OK back when, but he's too old for that now. I keep telling him, lose the "wild and crazy guy" routine and just be himself. But no.
I had a girlfriend in college who was the distaff version of this guy. She was a gorgeous blonde who modeled and was trying to break into movies (alas, a few bit parts, but that was it). She too was always on the make for the bigger and better deal, and the whole thing didn't work out.
Somehow, inexplicably, we've stayed in touch all these years. She met up with my wife and me shortly after our younger son was born, and asked to hold him. I was really moved by her reaction; I thought her heart would break, as it was apparent that she'd give anything to have a baby of her own.
I always hoped these two friends of mine would someday get together so I could stop worrying about each of them separately, but realistically, each of them has way too much top spin for that to happen.

Posted by: Kensington at June 06, 2017 07:48 PM
Kensington, it's not the public school. It's the entertainment that she watches and hears. I teach at a public school and my colleagues and I are appalled that we are getting kids who are using plural pronouns for everyone and everything. Katy Perry and her ilk are popular with the girls in middle school and they're pushing that crap.
I embarrassed one of my students who dropped that "don't assume gender" crap when I asked, "So you aren't a girl? Your mom isn't a woman? Your dad isn't a man?" She didn't know what to say because she hadn't been forced to use her brain.
In some ways it's no different from a kid who used really foul language and said, "It's free speech!" His history teacher and I tagged-teamed him: He had to read up on the First Amendment for a history project and then he wrote an essay for my class about whether there should be limits on free speech. He got good grades on both, but I think he was proudest that his grandpa (retired Airforce) read his essay and praised him.

I think you are right. 0 or 1 should be repulsive, not plain. I really can't think of that many women that are painfully ugly. The main reason women fall into the low end of the scale is due to being overweight. Makeup, a nice hairstyle, and flattering clothing go a long way to improve anyone's appearance.
Posted by: L, Elle at June 06, 2017 08:12 PM (Rsi2C)
Exactly. I caught a lot of flak for calling Lena Dunham a 5, but she's average-looking in my book. Not pretty by any means but not hideously ugly either. I've seen plenty worse than her.

You should take Colorado Alex's advice. Take 6 months and focus on yourself, fitness, Wright training, nutrition, and pick a social hobby. Read the GAINZZZ posts, and strongly consider fasting.
If you don't love and treat yourself well, then you can't expect members of the opossite sex to do so.
People think it's shallow that members of the opposite sex value health and looks, but it is a ecstatic of life, fair or not, so play the game for 6 months and then revisit dating and trying to attract men.

0 or 1 depends on your standards... which are based on who you are, and how hot of a babe you sleep with....
For me? 0 is anyone who does not have a body that attracts me...
Why? Because of my past.... and who I date now... I know what I like, and what I don't....
But you'll find the higher on the 1 to 10 scale you are yourself... the higher your minimum standard becomes...

A sudden blow: the great wings beating still
Above the staggering girl, her thighs caressed
By the dark webs, her nape caught in his bill,
He holds her helpless breast upon his breast.
How can those terrified vague fingers push
The feathered glory from her loosening thighs?
And how can body, laid in that white rush,
But feel the strange heart beating where it lies?
A shudder in the loins engenders there
The broken wall, the burning roof and tower
And Agamemnon dead.
Being so caught up,
So mastered by the brute blookd of the air,
Did she put on his knowledge with his power
Before the indifferent beak could let her drop?
Again, the daughter was a full 10.

The decimal scale goes from 1 to 10, where 1 is a gargoyle and 10 is (insert name of most beautiful woman you've ever seen here).
Note that the decimal scale goes from 1 to 10, not 0 to 9. There is no 0 on the decimal scale.
The binary scale is either 1 (would hit) or 0 (would not hit).

Nothing kills romance faster than a spendthrift married to a frugal type, and both boys take after us in being the latter. As I put it, when you're working your ass off to stay afloat, you don't want to have a wife who's drilling holes in the bottom of the boat to let the water out.

attraction is there or it isn't, and there isn't anything you can do to
become more attractive to a guy. You either got it or ya don't."
I have been asked questions on several occasions by women about male psychology, and I've always said that men aren't identical units, there's no standardized instruction and operating manual, and just because I respond in a particular way to something is no guarantee that some other man will respond in the same manner.
Recall this the next time you hear a guy give advice about guys.

This, bigly. I have three friends that are in trouble with their husbands for continually using charge cards and hiding the balance. One friend her husband threatened divorce if she can't stop. The other one had to get a loan from a bank. 40,000 in the hole.
The other one learned and he checks the mail and bank account.
The husbands feel betrayed, I guess they have been.

=======
I can help verify this, at least in one specific instance.
My Ex was an Alabama cheerleader. At one point, a solid 9 on the 10 point scale. When younger, she was amused with the extra attention that this got her.
As she aged and necessarily began to move down the scale, she became irritated about not receiving that attention she was used to. So, she started to act up, demanding attention. This slid her further down the scale, as her once being a nice, happy person was one of the things that made her beautiful.
She is now 60, and a bitter Holy terror. I have talked to her about this, as it is effecting our 20 yo daughter now. She feels justified, and gives not a shit about how her actions are effecting her family and the few friends she has left.

Hence my advice to my sons.
I previously related the story of grocery shopping for an intimate dinner where the gal picked up the present-day equivalent of ca. $50 in my change and pocketed it, never to be seen again. Then she spent half of the evening bleating about how poor she was.
I got the picture.

The immediate criticism most of you make when talking about a woman is her weight. If Dunham was physically fit and didn't insist on wearing really bad clothes and sporting the worst tats, she would be okay looking.
Posted by: L, Elle at June 06, 2017 08:34 PM
Lena is not an attractive woman, but she is not ugly (on the outside). She could work on her appearance.
But her biggest problem is she is ugly on the inside.
Dieting, a pleasant hair style and clothes will not fix that.

You don't think people should be comfortable in their own skin? You think they should somehow feel shamed into becoming more attractive to the opposite sex?
Guess what? Men like tan skin tones. Guess what? I'm one shade darker than albino. Guess what? I don't feel compelled to go to a tanning bed. I just don't.
But, we live in a pretty messed up society when women (or men for that matter) are expected to change themselves (looks or personality) to attract someone of the opposite sex. Whatever happened to "Be yourself; the right person will like you no matter what." ?

I further made the mistake of following Podhoretz's tweet thingy and the follow up comments.
That review was "masturbatory" and "soft core porn", and all that. Just what the fuck do they think the point is?
And BTW, screw soft core. Hard core or nothing. And if he wants a "mastubatory" narrative, well, I could write one for him, much better that anything these idiots could write.
This is all posing. The never Trumpers did this. Just shocked, shocked, that anyone would say anything about grabbing...things. Some idiot supposed conservative said he had never, never heard any talk like in a locker room or anywhere. And if he did, by God, he would have called them out with righteous indignation.

Seriously, skipping breakfast and only eating in a 6 hour window is not unreasonable if you want to get healthy. It's literally the fountain of youth when combined with cutting out sugar and carbs.

**************************
I think dating is what filled the void when it was finally taboo for parents to arrange a marriage/spouse for you,even though if I recall right objective studies indicated that arranged marriages had a higher success/contentment rate. Mostly because loving parents want the best for their kids and can be objective about it while their kids are too fucking stupid to make rational decisions because they're swimming in hormones.

I'm sure if you thought about it a while you could come up with something else than a false dichotomy like that.
Frankly I suspect a talented and skilled matchmaker probably would do better than your average hormonally driven, clueless teenager in finding a spouse, but there are a lot of other options.
Go on activities with other people, do the stuff you might do on an interesting date - not dinnerandamovie but the zoo, a play in the park they don't act like they're killing Donald Trump, etc. Just go with friends and people you know. Volunteer to help kids out, do stuff with other folks. Learn about each other. Find out who they really are. Let them find out who you really are.

Well, part of being yourself is being the best yourself you can be. I mean you'd pass a guy by who had a big gut, never combed or washed his hair, stains all over his clothes etc. He's just being himself, right?
But I don't figure that's what you're up to here. I figure there's a broad space between "get a personal trainer and plastic surgeon" and "do nothing but eat cheetos all day."
Posted by: Christopher R Taylor at June 06, 2017 08:57 PM (39g3+)
Yeah, this.^^^
I'm not dating these days since I have the glorious and delightful Mrs naturalfake at my side.
But, if I'm going to make an effort to set up a date to go somewhere nice to have a good time and dress well myself.
Man, the women better be a solid ten if she's going to show up with minimal effort on her part.
Cuz we all know that the person you're dating is the best that person is every going to be.
Women need bring more to the table in a relationship than their lady parts (as delightful as those may be).
That's one reason that Cooking was one of my filters.
I figured that a woman who doesn't cook doesn't really care that much about herself and hence would be a lousy mate and mother, not to mention girlfriend.
Feel free to disagree. But, the Cooking filter has been remarkably useful.

I get that women want to look more grown up. I get that long hair is a pain to take care of, when you have kids and a home and all that you don't have as much time to play around with hair. But seriously ladies most guys really do like long hair on a woman. Its at least worth considering their desires and interests and not just your girlfriends who all are supportive of your desire to hack it all off.

You know what makes women more attractive? Biochemistry. Oxytocin, the love hormone specifically. It does all sorts of interesting things to both mens and womyns.
To put in bluntly, when you, uh, bust a nut, your brain gets a strong hit of oxytocin. It plays tricks on your mind, such as making think you the female face you're looking at when you bust that nut is much more attractive that you would otherwise rate her.

I call it "jiggling the variables." Not satisfied with how something works? Try something else, and see how that works.
I recently tried drinking a couple cups of coffee right before working out, hoping to get in a better workout.
It upset my stomach, and I felt awful. Chalk that experiment up to experience. But other experiments have worked out spectacularly.
So jiggle the variables! Do things that you previously haven't done.

I must admit I do not get this whole line of reasoning. I can cook. I don't like to, but I can.
If I meet a woman, and she says she can cook, all I can think is "that's nice, you are saying you are willing to stand in a kitchen and do work." All well and good, but she might as well tell me she is willing to scrub the toilet.

She didn't say she could could cook, she wanted to demonstrate it. In the event, we were implicitly working out a basis of what turned out to be our marriage, viz., how we would divide responsibilities. In our case, I'd provide for the family, she'd take care of the household.

I like food. I eat it.
That's how I live. What I had to learn, which wasn't easy, is that food is a functional thing, and if I chase my cravings I will eat a lot of crap that not only isn't functional, but takes years off my life.
It's a simple concept, and frankly I now find it weird that people make a big deal out of cooking and making elaborate dishes.

There is a mentally among white women under 40 that they are entitled to men for dating and sex. This devalues men and literally is another way women think and treat men like subhumans whose only purpose in life is to serve them. white women under 40 literally reinforce this to their own sons.
This is fucked up and needs to be corrected if our country is going to survive.

That is true for when you already have a method that works to achieve a desired outcome. Then you are just working to improve the quality and perhaps speed of achieving said outcome.

1) I get tired of eating my own cooking, and I get tired of eating crackers and cheese because I am too tired to cook after a long day at work. So the idea of coming home to someone who can take that particular load of my shoulders is very appealing.
2) A woman that likes cooking and is happy to do so will probably like and be happy in a traditionally feminine gender role in other areas too. That is a good thing in my book.

If your date would like to try Mexican food, and you normally don't care for it, maybe a carefully selected entree at a quality restaurant will be enjoyable.
If your date is hinting that if you loved him, you would do a three way....not so much.

The worst possible way to meet a woman is in the workplace.
There are slight odds that a man may encounter the love of his life among his professional colleagues. Seen that happen.
The odds are sadly a lot higher that any romantic encounter beginning in the office will end up incinerating his career and livelihood.

She kills it as Wonder Woman, and she is very good in the movie.
--------------------
Chris Pine also does quite well in the movie.
Personally, I'd rate it higher than a "mediocre" Marvel movie. I'd put it closer to the upper tier. It's still not all the way up there, mind you. Movies like Iron Man and Captain America are still better, imo. But I found it to be a pretty good movie. Most of my complaints had to do with the historical liberties that the writers took regarding World War I.
As for Gadot's range - if she's smart about it, then it won't prove to be much of a handicap. Keanu Reeves and Dwayne Johnson have both made very successful careers out of recognizing the kinds of scripts that they can work with, and not accepting anything else. If she can do that as well, then she can probably do well in the industry.
Plus, she's playing Wonder Woman. She should pull in a decent amount of money just from that.

Ah. I have been misinterpreted. I'll assume this was due to inclarity on my part. Let me extend and elaborate upon my earlier remarks.
It's not that unscrubbed toilets are okay. It's that scrubbed toilets have a ceiling function on how good they can be.
There have been fairly few instances in my life (like, zero) when I've stopped and said, "God! This is the most amazingly well cleaned toilet I've ever seen! This is genius! My life has been changed for the better simply for having seen this!"
As long as it's decently clean, that's just fine, and brillant extensive efforts beyond that point are largely wasted.
Whereas I have been prepared and served some utterly astonishing meals that my entire life would have been the poorer for had I not eaten and enjoyed them. Food preparation has substantially more potential upside to it.

He's been playing part time; second base (his normal position), third base, right field, and playing left field tonight because the Reds regular left fielder, Adam Duvall, was getting the night off.
4 home runs and he also drove in 10 runs.

Old, old family "legend":
Farmer Levi gets married, not knowing his future wife can't cook worth a darn.
First breakfast after they got married, she burns the toast almost to charcoal.
She says to Levi, "I hope you like the toast!"
Levi, being a gentleman of the old school and not wanting to hurt his new bride's feelings, says "My dear, that toast is just the way Levi likes it!"
Levi ate burned toast for the next 40 years, but they were good years!

I understood what you meant, what I'm saying though is, the best meal I ever had prepared for me, wasn't that important to me. It served a purpose. I like good food, I really do! I just don't think it's all that important. And a bad meal can be overcome, rather easily, even if the solution is just not eating.
So yeah, a clean toilet can only be so clean, but so can a good meal only be a momentary pleasure. A mere blip. But a bad toilet... I have seen a few, and I remember them. Oh yes I do.

2) Chris Pine was given some stiff dialogue, but despite that, he pulled off playing the part of a guy who deserved WW's love even while constantly acknowledging her superior demi-god power.
3) Despite #1 and #2, the movie was not as good as most of the Marvel ones. The dialogue wasn't as snappy, and the plot meandered a bit in the middle. I started to get bored. Also, I think we were supposed to care about the secondary characters, but I didn't.
4) My 13-year-old-son thought it was incredibly lame.
