More thinking about 24

[allisnow]

So I started wondering... did the women this season get off easy?

I mean, if you consider the ultimate fate of the main characters, and considering the main characters to be the ones included in the promo shot:

Men:
- Jack: half-dead
- Bill: dead
- Tony: shot-up and street-rat crazy
- Larry: dead
- Henry: shot up, daughter in deep shit, marriage possibly in peril
- Sean: Possibly in even deeper shit than Olivia, self-inflicted GSW, total loser
- Ethan: Actually came out of this okay; can probably ask for a pay raise

Women:
- Chloe: fine (and awesome)
- Janis: still dumb as a post, but otherwise fine
- Renee: probably an ex-FBI agent, rather bruised and battered, but otherwise fine (and also awesome!)
- President Taylor: daughter marriage blah blah at least she still has her job

Let no one say that TPTB of 24 are misogynists.

I don't hang out with the 24 fandom... Is that an actual rumor? If it is... good grief, some people (women) need to stop looking for victimhood. If the women get treated like dainty flowers and are protected then TPTB are chauvinists; if they get handed their asses (just like the guys) then TPTB are misogynists.
