Mulan: Pretend to be a man because women are inferior.
I hate it when people say that about “Mulan.” As though the scene at the end, where the men dress up as women to beat the enemy, never happened. And like Mulan did not prove herself a hero as a woman to her fellow soldiers, the Emperor, and all of goddamn China. Do I own a special copy of the DVD, that shows the crowd of hundreds of thousands bowing down to her at the end, or what?
I understand their point to a certain extent, they are just misguided. You have to show the flaw in order to overcome it. So yes, some things in Mulan are going to sound like “Hey wait a minute! This is sexism!” No, this is the filmmakers setting up the problem/obstacle. You have to show it.
Like using offensive slurs in movies. It’s necessary to show you the ”enemy” the others are up against.
