I'm convinced The Walking Dead hates women. The female characters are horribly represented, are mostly un-relatable and are clearly created from the perspective of male writers. As I suspected, the ENTIRE writing crew is male. There are 15 producers, 2 of which are female. There is obvious sexism occurring. The writers believe they can make a strong female character by giving her a gun, but the real answer is in hiring more women to be a part of the team behind the scenes, and getting true female perspective. I wish this were as obvious to them, and wish it would change soon. TWD is an awesome idea and is suffering from lack of awareness. This needs to fucking change.

Busy life, bad stress management, bad at keeping up on the blog. I will return and be more frequent once I get a hold of things. Hope you are all well, whoever reads this.
