Woolite In He Washers?

least 30 lives

Is there any among you who listened to the first episodes of 30 lives, the new Fabienne Larouche series? It's basically the same as Virginia, but Virginia and modernized a bit I feel. I have not heard much Virginia, so I have no points of comparison. The episodes are arranged on tou.tv too.

I noticed something amazing listening to the first 3 episodes. In two out of three episodes, the term feminist was used, and to designate two different women. Wow! you say, finally, a series gives us visibility. Hmm ... not so sure. I put in context.

First episode: We discover
parents a youth. The mother has a new job for three months, it is necessary that caters to the family. The father was squealing out shortly before he saw and upset that no longer fill the needs of his family. It lowers a lot and especially his wife constantly feel guilty because she works and not him. It denigrates the tasks to do at home. We see that he feels belittled to no longer be the provider. At one point, he told his wife that he will "make a woman" or "mother". She replied: "I know not what bothers me most: that you're down or you to do the big nono macho . To which he replied: "leaves lecturing feminist, it really is not time. "

One can interpret this passage is in many ways. To date, however, the show places a strong emphasis on the evil being the father. It is perfectly legitimate it is depressed, angry at losing his job. Yet by focusing on their discomfort of not playing it properly its role as a male breadwinner, I do not think the issue we render service, neither women nor men. She is a tormented character who constantly blames his wife makes him miss work. He heard that she does not care enough for their child. It shows also very jealous and goes to see his new work without permission, demanding to see his boss, because he does not trust him. It will take longer to see how their relationship evolves, but for now, this is problematic.

Episode Three: There
in 30 lives, a pattern particularly atrocious. It is obvious that the author wants to hate him. He ordered the mother (from episode 1) to sleep with him if she wants to keep his job and his promotion, he took advantage of the precariousness of his family budget, etc.. A true real asshole. At one point in this episode is the restaurant's husband character main teacher, Gabrielle. While waiting for the cashier to pay, the cashier called "log flume". Gabrielle replied: "Katie is her name." He replies: "Do you mind you, my pretty?". She replied: "Mine is Fortin." He turns to the husband of Gabrielle and said "Do not let go of rabid feminist lesbians, Chief, you'll lose your good customers." When the chief replied that it was his wife, the asshole said to him: "That's why you cook haha. He ended by giving a tip to the waitress gig, and he said: "Well pitoune, you deserve it. Everything can be bought. " And he leaves. It

Clearly you're supposed to hate the character. The problem with this scene there is that he wins. It is headed, it pays the cashier, call logs, insult the wife of the boss, and he left such a quiet, because it's CASH. So the insult is still valid, what stands out is that Gabrielle is not a lesbian, but she is still frustrated feminist. Moreover when the asshole said "log flume" Gabrielle's husband is at once a face of "oh no, is not say that" because he knows she will react. He expects his reaction. From there to find whether the mad or not, it would be on the interpretation.

So is the stock bin for analysis in this new series. For now, we know the characters and not enough history to really determine the intention of the author. The two examples I gave are already surprising, remains to be seen how it will evolve. Stay tuned! By the way, if you disagree with my interpretation, or if you have other examples, feel free to comment!
