[QUOTE="TooFineAPoint, post: 1563463, member: 8507"] To address original OP question: Like anything else, it's a mix of 80% expediency and 20% "secular belief" that predominates in industry. Since the early 2000s, the main consumer of Hollywood has become [B]middle aged women[/B] (or let's say 26-45 year old women, of which the majority in America are white, half white, or Jewish). This changed from the main consumer being male youth (16-26) in the 80s and 90s. So it is EXPEDIENT to produce movies that cater to middle aged "white" women. The majority of middle aged white women who ALSO choose to watch a lot of tv/movies are going to hold these (among other) attitudes: 1. The female stars need to be somewhat attractive, but not in a threatening way. Meaning not too young, not too busty, hair not too long. Up until lately they still needed to be not-fat, but even that will change. 2. "Diversity" and "inclusivity" are commandments. 3. Alternative lifestyles are fun and exciting (and make for good drama, because now "I" -- middle aged white woman -- can project the thing(s) that I do that are not accepted by the norm onto this relationship in this movie and become the central hero of the story). A lot of dudes believe that Hollywood Jews just get together and say "let's put the most unrealistic couplings on the screen that only the most degenerate people support to stick a finger in the face of White Christian Men". That would make up the other 20% of the reasoning, but really the 80% is what I wrote above. They are serving their most loyal audience, mostly. [/QUOTE]
