Favorite Holiday Movies: Where my girls at?

Well I am problematizing the everyday. Thanks Dorothy Smith for the book, The Everyday World as Problematic. As I sat down yesterday to watch my favorite holiday movies my feminist mind took over, yet again. Ever since I found out about the Bechdel test which basically highlights how most movies do not have adequate representation of female characters, I tend to criticize every movie I watch (Note: it is probably not fun for people to attend movies with me, sorry friends!). The Bechdel Test is simple and all the movie needs is: 1.) It has to have a least two women in it. 2.) Who talk to each other. 3.) About something other than a man.
