UN Women's Goodwill Ambassador endorses domestic abuse.

Rating: 1/10 (5 May 2017)

Watching the UN Women Goodwill Ambassador rubber stamp the business model of every dirt bag who sought to employ domestic abuse in order to win the affections of a woman, was the final word on the dangers of virtue signaling.
I just sat through two hours of an outspoken advocate for women's rights expertly demonstrating the efficacy of the "Bad Boy" routine and why so many men employ it.
Let me summarize the remake of The Beauty and the Beast, spoiler alert.
A strong and independent woman who doesn't need a husband to be happy or relevant is kidnapped by an emotionally damaged recluse with anger issues.
Initially she is repulsed and defiant, this behavior is unacceptable and she is a strong, independent woman after all.
He attempts to use his power to restrict her access to food in order to to have her join him for dinner so he can begin to win her love, but again she resists, for she is a strong, independent woman after all.
As our heroine prepares to escape from this brute, another woman explains to her that the Beast isn't all bad, that his violent tendencies and abusive behavior isn't his fault you see, he just never had a mother. It is at this moment that she arrives at the logical conclusion that this beast needs saving, and that she is just the woman to "fix" him.
Shortly after this she is caught going through his closet (kinda) and suffers a barrage of verbal abuse, rightly decides to leave, and promptly does so by shouting that she won't tolerate such behavior and runs out the front door. (Which apparently she could have done at any point during her "detention").
As she flees she is beset by a gang (of wolves) and valiantly tries to fight them off, but is overpowered only to be saved by the very man she was trying to escape. He savagely beats the assailants in order to protect his property but is injured and succumbs to his wounds. As the beast slips in and out of consciousness Belle begins to mount her horse and flee, but his brutally primal show of affection has clearly impressed her, and she not only CHOOSES to return to an abusive relationship but she nurses him back to health.
The abusive control freak shows Belle a softer side and demonstrates his love with shiny things.
After the Beast finally sets Belle free she returns to her village only to insist that "they don't know him like she does" and that he wouldn't really hurt anyone!
They reunite, profess their love for each other and live happily ever after.
Two important lessons are learned from this adventure.
Inside every strong independent woman is a little princess who needs lots of material wealth and a strong paternalistic male to protect her, and
Inside every violent and abusive man is a prince who just needs the right woman to understand that the only reason he gets so mad is because he loves her so much.
Thank you Emma Watson for setting women back 100yrs.
