The Real Story Behind The Fearless Girl Statue That Had Leftwing Empowerment Boners Shooting Hot, Sticky Justice Juice All Over The Internet [Warden]

Do you remember this stupid statue? The little girl being all brave and defiant and whatnot? Boy, did the left get themselves all hot and bothered over this statue.

Fearless.jpg

Frumpy, white, upper middle class, suburban mommies in particular found themselves feeling she-powered by this bold, new, herstorical icon of American civil rights.

Because, you know--oppression and stuff. Like how 57% of college graduates are female, same as in Iraq and other awful places.

Arturo Di Modica, the artist who created the charging bull that the girl is staring down, further raised the ire of the gurl power advocates on the left for objecting to others piggybacking on his own artistic work and changing the intended meaning of it to serve their own agenda.

"Your male fragility is showing!" one woman jeered on Twitter. "Are you afraid of a little girl?" spat another.

Yesterday, di Modica pointed out a very inconvenient fact. The defiant girl statue is nothing but a cynical piece of corporate advertising for a gimmicky "Gender Diversity" index fund.

"Fearless Girl" was in fact commissioned as a publicity stunt tied to International Women's Day by State Street Global Advisors, a Boston-based investment company which manages some $2.5 trillion in assets. The firm says the girl is intended to promote its campaign urging "greater gender diversity on corporate boards."

Photographer, Greg Fallis, points out that even without this obnoxious corporate tie-in, the piece fails in its goal of promoting female empowerment because it relies on Di Modica's charging bull to give it context and meaning.

Fearless Girl derives its power almost entirely from Di Modica's statue. The sculptor, Kristen Visbal, sort of acknowledges this. She's said this about her statue:

"She's not angry at the bull -- she’s confident, she knows what she's capable of, and she's wanting the bull to take note."

It's all about the bull. If it were placed anywhere else, Fearless Girl would still be a very fine statue-- but without facing Charging Bull the Fearless Girl has nothing to be fearless to. Or about. Whatever. Fearless Girl, without Di Modica's bull, without the context provided by the bull, becomes Really Confident Girl.

The charging bull, it should be noted, was a piece of guerilla artwork created by Arturo Di Modica after the 1987 stock market crash. Di Modica, a Sicilian immigrant, created the statue at his own expense and plopped it down in front of the New York Stock Exchange without permission. The bull, he said, represented "the strength and power of the American people."

The stiffs who ran the exchange hated the statue and had it removed. A major outcry from the people of New York City caused them to relent. The now-beloved sculpture has been a fixture of the NYSE ever since.

So basically, a bunch of soulless corporate hacks hijacked a patriotic piece of artwork created by a proud naturalized immigrant and affirmed by a popular uprising and changed it into yet another tiresome display of snotty SJW self rightousness to the cheers of a bunch of people who have never experienced an ounce of oppression in their soft, easy, and meaningless lives.

If these people are so strong, brave and all around kick-ass, then why do they always have to tear down what other people have built? Why can't they shine on their own instead of snuffing out everyone else's candles?

Because they suck. Because they're wretched. Because they're liars, hypocrites and selfish, shitty-assed people.

Some people had the idea that Di Modica should turn the bull so that its backside faces the girl. I think he should just take his bull somewhere else and leave the girl facing nothing. That or build a larger, taller boy right in front of her as a giant fuck you to all involved.

2 Good point about the statue of the boy. He should be between the girl and the bull, facing the bull, crouched slightly, with a spear in his hand.

Posted by: Richard Aubrey at April 21, 2017 03:47 PM (W9gUg)

3 I think he should relocate the bull to be charging on the girl, with her back turned, so she can be posturing in oblivious delusion and misplaced overconfidence.

I think its a perfect example of modern feminist grrl power. She thinks she's unstoppable and cannot be harmed, she thinks she's the figure of power. And when that bull hits her, like reality, she's going to be flattened. All her posturing and attitude means nothing except personal ego. She's the epitome of modern feminist mythmaking.

51 Will have to bing it, but a NYPost column on that statue point out that opposite of empowerment, it is the personification of how women are the ones who stand in the way of/regulate male progress.

She pointed out that of the 2 execs of the company that paid for it, one is a VP in charge of regulating (i.e. telling the company which new business prospects can't go forward) and the other is an HR exec. And this is true for a lot/most of female leadership/executives - they gravitate toward these types of jobs.

60 The bull is just another bogeyman, and in this case just one more misappropriation of liberal social cultists.

They have to defy, and create controversy where there really is none. Manufacturer some outrage, for their feeble, empty and fallacious "causes".

I'm so sick of the constant attack on Wall Street, where the corporate SJW clowns have pummeled every hard working person for their pet causes. That is, mostly, the way they have tried to shame white males at the expense of putting underwhelming, less talented people in positions just because it fits their idea of "diversity ".

But the bigger problem with Fearless Girl is that it casts
stereotypes in bronze: Men do important things, and women get in the
way.[/]
The bull is the primary actor: He is charging. The girl's job is to
impede him. This is how Wall Street has long worked --- and it's changing,
but slowly.

Take the management committee of State Street's parent company. Of
its 14 members, two are women. One, the chief administrative officer, is
a top regulatory official. The other is the human-resources chief and "citizenship officer."

Anyone here a fan of the old Prime Suspect series starring Helen Mirren?

It was a good show when Mirren was on it.

Well, the diverse cucks at BBC decided to bring back Prime Suspect as Prime Suspect '73.

Does this sound good to you?:
Prime Suspect 1973 tells the story of 22-year-old Jane Tennison's first days in the police force, in which she endured flagrant sexism before being thrown in at the deep end with a murder enquiry.

Who would watch this shit??
BBC loves to do this. Beat their viewers over the head with leftwing socially constructed crap while slipping in digs on Margaret Thatcher.

You see, women in England had it lousy in the '70's when all they wanted to be treated like one of the blokes. Also, Margaret Thatcher sucked, and she wasn't a woman, or historic, or anything. This idiotic contradictory juggling act is rampant on all BBC shows.

Because the actual message of the statue is that women stand in the way of financial growth which is, get this, actually misogynistic.

Posted by: alexthechick - rrraaawwwrrr at April 21, 2017 04:10 PM (mf5HN)

96 1) Why is it a little girl? Why not a full grown woman? Does that mean the artist views all women as small and powerless?

2) Why is she defiant? How exactly does she plan to tame the bull? If it were me, I'd be shitting bricks facing a charging bull that size. So the statue denotes a basic lack of common sense.

3) Symbolically a charging bull means a growing stock market. This is seen as a good thing - it denotes confidence in the economy and the country. The little girl's defiance suggests this must be stopped at the risk of one's life.

So, the message - women are weak, small, childish, stupid, and opposed to a growing economy and country. They oppose good things without reason, or a plan for success.

Was that the message I was supposed to get?

Great post. Wish you were around more often.

My vote for Modica to simply and quietly remove the bull and take it somewhere it would be appreciated. I can think of many, many places that would love to have it both for the message of strength and for the pure talent on display.

It would also send a sort of David Galtian message. Screw around with us enough and we will simply take our talents and energy somewhere else.

And that saga of the bull would be the kind of story I would love to have told my son when he was younger.

Get your own fucking idea. If your social justice position is such a winning platform it should have no trouble standing on it's own.

Utterly, all-encompassingly stupid, unless you realize that unlike the bull, the little girl is less a memorial or monument and more AN ACTUAL FUCKING ITEM OF WORSHIP. AN ACTUAL FUCKING IDOL.

That's the whole point of the statue of Dagon falling over in the old testament. That idols are erected as implacable things with an other-than-human implacability and embued with a divine level reverence. Why the miracle was so important - "even the things you create to hold fast, to be the divine for you, are nothing before the Almighty God".

Ferdinand the Bull, who loved butterflies and flowers. A classic, written in 1936, by Munro Leaf.


We had an Angus bull, named Abner, who weighed 1800 pounds, and followed my dad around the farm like a puppy. He loved to have his head scratched, and would come if you called his name. Even though he was gentle, seeing an 1800 pound bull running at you top speed for a treat was a bit daunting. And I saw that every day growing up. These poor snowflakes would crap their pants just for that big baby. Imagine if they encountered an actual, mean bull-like a Brahman.

174 I don't mind teaching girls to be strong. They should be strong. They should also be kind, be gentle, be polite, be respectful, be bold, be brave. Strength comes from character. Character comes from perseverance. Perseverance comes from trials.


It is wrong to think a girl can magically make the jump to "strong" without first developing character. She can't become strong by looking at a statue or watching a Disney movie. That said, is she already possesses inner strength, things like looking at a statue aren't going to hurt a thing.

My guess is she doesn't read much at all, she has people who read and tell her about it, or she reads reviews and blurbs. That line about having an "embarrassingly large" kindle library is the kind of thign someone who doesn't actually like to read says. Readers cannot be embarrassed by the number of their books, its like being too lovely or too rich. No such thing. Every new book adds to your pride, not embarrassment.

I read a study that a major book seller did and they found out that of those super popular best selling "important books" at least in the electronic book versions people read about 10% of the book, ever. There's a class of people who want to be thought of as erudite and well-read (Obama for instance) that buy books and display them like a flag but never read them. Its about building an image, not their minds.

240 And I don't know how many regular readers of "Vanity Fair" the magazine have read Bunyan's Pilgrims Progress, but the title of the magazine seems quite appropriate for them since Bunyan uses the phrase to critique frivolity and ostentation. Wealthy trivial NY leftists , eh? I guess they were parodying the phrase "I was curious to see if I could care about money on some fundamental level. but I could;n't" Why, princess?_ Because you've never had to worry about i!! The article on Chelsea mentions her as nodding to people as if they are courtiers. At least the anti heroine, Becky Sharpe, in "Vanity Fair" by Thackeray, although a cynical social climber had a wit and intelligence and ability to charm that made her compelling and irresistible to men. I don't think there's anything compelling about Chelsea and even the author of the author in the "Vanity Fair" article recognizes it. She's shallow, self entitled, narcissistic and not particularly bright.

As I have pointed out before, there is a highway that goes down south of Anniston, Alabama marked 'Alabama Highway for the Deaf and Blind'. I've always been super cautious when driving on that road.

273 I think you can teach your kids until you're blue in the face and they'll still end up in the street when they shouldn't. Its always good to drive extra careful in neighborhoods, I don't have any problem with a sign like that.

But then, I was riding my bike to work and some woman opened her car door into my face, caught the corner of it on my neck. I'm always worried what's going to suddenly show up in the street between cars.

She couldn't close her door after that accident by the way. I wasn't hurt horrendously but I missed a couple days. I went to work anyway, because I didn't want to lose my job, but when I got into the bathroom to clean up I understood why everyone looked so pale and horrified when they saw me.

277 Hot AF girl was at the gym again today. 4 days in a row working out at the exact same time.

I came out of the locker room and was walking into the barbell and free weights room, and she walked right in front of me and caught my eye and gave that same sly half grin. It was a instant reaction like yep he is here and here I am.

i do everything that I can to ignore her, especially when she bends over a few feet from my face to pick up her phone constantly to change songs.

She is in season that's for sure.

280 Hasn't this girl power thing been going on too long already? It's not 1974. Women are doing very well. In fact, in every couple i know that are under 40, the woman makes MORE than the man. In EVERY case. More--sometimes significantly more.
Meanwhile, we've raised a generation and a half of useless, low T pajama boys who are afraid of going out and getting dirty, and would rather watch pron than fuck a real, live girl.

285 You know what else this is all about? Every one has been going on about appropriation and changing the intent of the artist and hijacking guerilla work, etc, etc. How about it's just another instance of the far left pissing on something that was original and nice. Wall Street is not for the weak of heart or mind. The bull symbolizes a bull market in an area of New York, Wall Street, that is known world wide. WORLD. WIDE. It's just another instance of the left deciding that we can't have nice things. What's next and where does she stop? Is she going to the Mall in Washington, to stare down the Viet Nam Memorial? Or how about the Korean War Memorial, with it's marching soldiers? Or even Arlington? Let her stare down the Old Guard at the Tomb of the Unknown. I'm tired of their cheap stunts. Absolutely tired.

Posted by: Pancake at April 21, 2017 04:53 PM (LPFcl)

286 No no no. What you do is put a large standing bear *behind* the girl. This completely transforms the tableau. Now the bull is properly acknowledging his true foe and the girl is rendered as a display of overconfident bravura oblivious to her own real threat.

Couple of years ago we were in Custer State Park in SD, viewing from very afar the beautiful and dangerous bison that live there. Signs are all over telling people to beware, bison are not tame and will charge you for the fun of it, do not approach them.

Two women get out of their car with their phones and selfie sticks in hand, and head for the nearest grouping of bison to take their photos with them - We put the car in drive and got the heck out asap

303 Given this is in "The Big End of Town", why not add a big, bronze sculpture of a bear?

Not a rampant 'cave bear' or some such, but my suggestion is a six foot tall "Winnie the Pooh" with his paw in a honey jar. Place that statue between the "girl" and the bull, but facing out, ignoring both.

And maybe add a pile of bronze "bovine ordure" behind the livestock sculpture.

304 Did anyone read the comments on Greg Fallis' web site? You never saw so many bloviating leftist douchebags in your life. I just wish that if capitalist societies are so unremittingly evil, as these monkeypoo-flinging little tards seem to think, that they would all just pack their bags and move to some socialist paradise like Cuba, Venezuela or North Korea, and leave the rest of us alone. (Never mind the fact that if capitalism was half as bad as these whiners seem to think, they'd have all been put up against a wall and shot long ago; not a bad idea come to think of it...)

306 That "fearless grrl" statue is a piece of crap. Had it been done by Norman Rockwell, all the glitterati would denounce it as trivial kitsch. It's basically no more than a cartoon rendered in bronze.

307 Looking closely at the Fearless Girl's face one notices that the jaw line is rather masculine, more like that of a young boy. Either the sculptor wasn't that good, or he is really making a transgender statement.

314 A better statue (reflecting strength & bravery) would've been one of a wheelchair bound female cancer patient whose too skinny & weak to walk, but refuses to die. Staying alive is the "fearless" life many of us lead today, but we aren't looking for fame, just life, so we don't fit their narrative of "Fearless Girl".

Posted by: Diana Lee at April 22, 2017 07:34 AM (M7y3o)

315 If someone were to add a third statue to the mix as other commenters have suggested, I would recommend an adult shown in desperate motion rushing from the side at the Girl to grab her in her ignorant bravado and carry her away from the threat. I think a woman would be a better choice than a man in this case; mature realization that some threats are better dealt with by getting out of the way than by trying to futilely face them directly. If you add a fourth, it should be a man doing whatever he can to protect those important to him, by self-sacrifice if no other course is available. Now to sit back and watch all the screaming about how sexist and all that I am roll in...

Give me a good oil painting or a marble sculpture that requires real skill and is a thing of beauty.
