Mila Kunis Says She Would Have Fun With 'Fifty Shades of Grey': Should They Cast Her?

Grey is a vampire? You know they are not men, Same with were wolves.
To be honest I think they are silly, not at all scary, tiresome even.

Where is my old GF Buffy?



I'm sorry, I should probably refrain from comment. Yet you asked everybody, so I replied.
I don't think I am expected to like any of these media dramas anyway, I'm not the audience targeted.

From a sodahead talk on modern gender discrimination-

Are men seen as the more disposable gender?
"To put it simply: men are neither supposed nor allowed to be dependent. They are expected to take care of others and themselves. And when they cannot or will not do it, then the assumption at the heart of the culture is that they are somehow less than men and therefore unworthy of help. An irony asserts itself: by being in need of help, men forfeit the right to it."

A sub-trope of the Double Standard. In media, female characters start with automatic audience sympathy because women are seen as moral, innocent, beautiful or simply because they have sexual value. Male characters are less likely to be seen that way and must earn audience sympathy by acting appropriately manly and heroic, which, more often then not, involves saving the Damsel in Distress.

Conversely, if a man is unable to take care of himself or others he forfeits audience sympathy. Women, on the other hand, do not lose audience sympathy—or at least not as much—for being helpless, incompetent or abandoning men to their fates in order to save themselves. Strangely, this can still hold true if the woman in question has already been established as a Badass.

The consequences of this are complicated, but in summary:
If the story requires random anonymous characters to die just to move the plot forward, they'll be male. If the plot requires a tragic death that motivates the protagonists or shows how evil the villains are, the victim will be female. Similarly if the story demands random mooks get a beat down by a character to up the sense of danger or just show off how awesome the protagonist is, they will be male.
