Great more Star Wars Nonsense

I like how it backfired on them. There are more likes on other women’s tweets calling them out than they have supporters for Stardust. Good for those women. There is only one Stardust BTW – Cody Rhodes.

Here is what I don’t get. This “Project Stardust” is for women who have felt like they were not welcomed or allowed to be SW fans. If they want to be accepted as fans and want to join others in the fandom, then why separate these women from the whole group? Why give them a safe place away from everything instead of working to integrate into the main fandom? The answers: #1) to create an echo chamber of like minded individuals and #2) by integrating into the main fandom, they would have to admit that it isn’t as bad as the media claims and they would lose out on the marketing angle of their agenda.

I read some of the responses, about how these women would be “challenged” by being asked trivia questions…every star wars fan goes through that. I was a big star wars dork in high school and all my other friends who were fans would challenge my knowledge and vice versa.

I highly doubt that “Project Stardust” is really about giving female fans a place to be and more about marketing or perhaps finding female centric creators to fill in the ranks at Lucasfilm.
