Well, you are wrong and apparently very naive and probably young - lol
>because the Dalai Lama is serious and not funny in any way
I guess he's not funny to most people, but if you read any Tibetan or buddhist philosophy, there's a lot of humour, and the DL can be a goofball - when he's not getting bashed for doing something truly weird. I've hear him make jokes - comes naturally in buddhism.
I didn't understand it either, but maybe it was supposed to help her not laugh. Just a giant wtf to me - oh, and Tibetan buddhism isn't Zen, so... that's a stretch.
I thought bulimia, because many of these girls could use that strategy. It's still a thing. It also works that she is having her first drinks and seh's gonna barf. Both can be true, all depending how the listener takes it.
It's to show her tomboy nature. Yes, and that she's not gay. People are that stupid. Lived with it all my life - lol. They assume you're gay if you don't play all the feminine games. Lesbians loved me. Too bad I'm not gay.
She was the perfect one to kill. She was a naive ditz and not the most glamou
rous.
Plus she had recently found out he had a nefarious past, just like the rumours about his mother.
There *is* an ignore button here. I don't wanna get used to it. But you do you.
That's not why. That's simplistic. Naturally, in a satire, nuanced theory won't be expressed. Look into the history of feminism. Do some reading. Who took away Roe v Wade? Mostly men, because they aren't personally affected the way we are. Men rule the world, still, and women are second class citizens. Women don't get some of those low jobs because they are home raising kids for no pay. Etc, etc. Please use your brain more.
You really should quit the all caps thing, though. Damn. Makes you look like a screaming moron - no offence intended, lol
Sorry you don't share the sense of humour in the movie. I didn't find it preachy.
"Man the hunter" is a fallacy:

As well, we live in a different world now and men's ability to be physically tough protectors is really not the way to success. Intellect and social savvy are what matters, now. Unless you're a logger or some such, I suppose. But they don't rule our world, if you haven't noticed. They (the macho rural type) just thinks he does. THankfully I don't live with such people anymore.
