I just wanted to have a moment of appreciation for my favorite female-led non-romantic comedies

Can we appreciate how feminist all these movies are in completely different ways?

Pitch Perfect and Bridesmaids proved that yes, a comedy with an all girl cast is possible, and both guys and girls will fucking love it

Easy A is filled to the brim with slut-shaming and how fucking ridiculous it is

She’s the Man has the traditional type of plot of a tomboy girl succeeding in a male-dominated area (typical does not mean bad)

Mean Girls is all about the cattiness of girls and how that shit has got to stop. (“You’ve got to stop calling each other sluts and whores. It just makes it okay for guys to call you sluts and whores”)

And Legally Blonde is a personal favorite. Beauty does not mean ignorance, femininity does not mean inferiority. You can be kick-ass, intelligent and feminist even when you’re wearing pink. This kinda message seems a little harder to come by when it comes to “empowered women” in the media.

Basically, these movies are progressive gold

She’s the man did have a bit of a romantic spin, was she not trying to get a guy the whole time?

‘A bit of a romantic spin’ is different from it being a Romantic Comedy. In Anchorman, Ron has a relationship with Veronica but we don’t call it a Romantic Comedy. In She’s the Man, while she did end up with a guy, the entire point of the movie was her getting onto the soccer team. That was the goal, that was the point.

This is why I call these non-romantic comedies. There may be relationships involved in all but that’s not the point in any.

The original pitch for the Powerpuff Girls was a student film called Whoopass Stew.  Craig McCracken originally intended to show what the perfect little girl was before Professor Utonium added a can of Whoopass to the concoction.  The perfect little girl (sitting on the rainbow) was supposed to be the perfect mixture of sugar, spice, and everything nice.  When the accidental extra ingredient was added, the three original ingredients split up to match the personalities of the three new girls.  Bubbles being sugar, Buttercup being spice, and Blossom being everything nice.
