message: It would be nice to see a short section critiquing this fFilm fFrom the fFeminist perspective.  While I enjoyed the movie a lot, I was surprised to learn fFeminist fFilm theorists have a lot of problems with this movie.  Specifically, because O'Neil is only able to become an equal when she stops acting like a woman.  Essentially, the movie is saying women can never get ahead, but if a woman becomes a man, then she may rise to an equal status.  She stop having periods.  She is embraced as an equal -- even a champion -- by her peers when she shouts the infamous "Suck my dick" line.  And the single greatest blow to her is when she is revealed not just to be a woman, but a potential Lesbian, which introduces homophobia and other perils.  Interesting points, since I rather expected this movie would be praised by fFeminists. Skotte 16:30, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Late reply but her stopping having periods was nothing to do with her being accepted. It's not something she could choose to do and I doubt the rest of the trainees even knew about it. It's just a common result of a woman being extremely stressed, physically or mentally. Even end of school year exams can mess up periods.109.148.131.23 (talk) 22:18, 19 May 2011 (UTC)

message: If you watch the movie very well then you will notice that Demi Moore was selected to train as a seal specificly Devgru ehich is shown on the papers presented to Moore from the senator, so i removed the section regarding CRT .--Max Mayr 21:48, 19 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Im surprised no one has mentioned the anual SEAL reunion debacle.
Many SEAL's were offended and Demi Moore recieved strong backlash from Jesse Ventura.
You're talking about a guy who wasn't embarrassed to wear neon spandex on national TV in the 80s.--76.92.243.14 (talk) 21:41, 20 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title: Controversy

message: Maybe I missed something in the TV movie version, but I recall that O'Neal flat out told her CO (whatever his name is) that he could either let her train or throw her out when the charges came out, then after the result of that meeting, she charged out and hit the bell causing it to ring rather than ringing it herself implying not that she dropped out but rather that she was forced out with her smashing the bell indicating her rage at being thrown out. --Forgottenlord (talk) 12:52, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

message: The waterboarding page has settled down, and they have decided to keep the link to G.I. Jane (in the Examples in fiction) section. This page should at least make mention. Did Moore do the scene herself? 198.123.56.141 (talk) 17:10, 19 April 2012 (UTC)

message: How many know that there was another movie titled "G.I. Jane"?
Granted, it does not have its own Wikipedia listing/entry and it is nothing like the Demi Moore film.
But I think this 1951 movie starring Jean Porter and Tom Neal (who do have their own entries) should have its own entry.
In addition, and the main reason for this section, is that I think a warning or caveat needs to be placed at the beginning of this entry.  Something like:   Not to be confused with the 1951 movie of the same name.
I have seen similar warnings/caveats on other Wikipedia entries.
Just a thought. 2600:8800:50B:6700:C23F:D5FF:FEC5:89B6 (talk) 09:02, 14 January 2017 (UTC)

message: I check pages listed in :Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of :G.I. Jane's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
Reference named "imdb":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 20:04, 13 March 2023 (UTC)
