Feminists attack BBC Sherlock Holmes for Mansplaining.

I was thinking of dropping that show, but now I almost have to watch it. Usually when feminazis are attacking it, it means something good and reasonable was said.

Not in this case. The feminazis (certainly not feminists by any meaningful definition) are so deranged that even when you revolve a plot around a gang of female mass-murderers, who kill men for noble reasons such as them leading women on but notmarrying them, the complaints are simply that their motivation was explained by a man and not a woman; the pathetic makers and actors in Sherlock certainly bent over backwards for the feminazis, making these killers the goodies and having our cast all agree that they are in the right, just not in the prescribed way.

Well, how else are those dull-witted, self-absorbed, Third Wave Feminist twats ever going to understand anything if a man doesn't explain it to them?

The part I saw was pretty crappy. Dream sequences! Meh! Bin there, done that!
Like a million, zillion times.

The scriptwriter should be bolloxed.

"The invisible army hovering at our elbow, tending to our homes, raising our children, ignored, patronised, disregarded, not allowed so much as a vote. But an army nonetheless, ready to rise up in the best of causes, to put right an injustice as old as humanity itself. So you see, Watson, this is a war we must lose."

I can't roll my eyes hard enough.

Yeah, that's just the format of the show - like when Columbo says 'just one more thing' then points out the flaw in the killer's cover story. Happens every week.

Not only were the killers not supposed to be Suffragettes, but events are taking place entirely inside a character's imagination, so complaining Suffragettes never wore pointy hoods and gathered in subterranean crypts is sort of dumb.

They do have a point about the choice of feminists as villains representing an insult though - Moffat and Gatiss made the killer in the first episode a taxi driver as a deliberate snub to the entire profession.

And if he took the opposing view he'd be derided as an incel virgin

So that's why Elementary made Watson Lucy Liu.

"Mansplaining" is a word which needs to be taken out back and beaten to death.

Wasn't it more geniusplaining?

As in, he's a genius, and he has to explain to all us mere mortals.

They're just upset that detective work takes a lot of skill and intellect that most women frankly just don't possess.
