Talk:Ann Nocenti

Feminism

As a long-time, obsessive fan of Ann Nocenti, I was startled to find an article referring to her views as "feminist".

Where exactly did the writer see Nocenti's work on Daredevil as displaying feminist views? In the countless scenes where Brandy Ash(who is obviously meant to represent the typical feminist) bullies Number Nine about her "happy housewife" persona, obviously with more concern towards the threat to feminism that Number Nine's lifestyle represents than to whether or not that lifestyle makes her happy? Or the part where Daredevil notes how essentially alike Brandy Ash and Number Nine(again, the feminist and the happy housewife) are? The little insinuations that feminists are as much a product of societal programming as the stay-at-home wives that they repudiate? The bit where big, tough, feminist Brandy Ash breaks down when she sees Daredevil beating up her obnoxiously sexist/chauvinist father?

I've never found a writer more openly anti-feminist than Ann Nocenti. So I'm going to assume that "feminist" was a typo and fix it to "anti-feminist". If someone thinks they see something that I'm missing, let me know. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Martin IIIa (talk • contribs) 15:41, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Just noticed that she's also described as "left-wing". I'm now starting to wonder if the writer ever read anything of hers. Nocenti may be left-wing on some issues, but her work demonstrates that she is anti-feminist, pro-life, and suspicious of big government, and those are the three issues which aroused the most controversy among readers. That's enough to say that it was her right-wing views that caused controversy, not her left-wing views.--Martin IIIa (talk) 15:52, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

Any News?

Nocenti lives in Haiti. Has there been any news released on how she was affected? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.203.119.71 (talk) 01:09, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
