There were definite feminist undertones. It was obvious when Kristin Booth's character was hammering her husband from behind (lol) and she ignored his calls to stop or slow down, and when she came it was very reminiscent of a man coming.

A feminist would never call a man pussy because pussy = female and that would mean she considers females to be the usual archetype of the weaker sex, which feminists don't.

If it doesn't equate to a gendered term, then what does it equate to?

It basically means the same as wimp/coward etc Men can be pussies, and they can be bitches too. It is not exclusive to one gender.

That is not really what gendered means. Using a solely female body part as a stand in for 'wimp', or 'coward' that is gendering a term. Just like 'dick' is gendered. A woman can also be called a dick, but that doesn't make the term any less gendered.

Exactly. Calling someone a "pussy" came from the belief women are weak and men are strong. Thus, weak men are like women pussies. Which is sexist, so a feminist wouldn't use that word.

Actually it comes from "puss" (i.e. cat, as cats are skittish), but manipulating the public with misinformation is a major staple of feminism, so keep it up.

Except using "pussy" to mean coward has no relation to its use to describe the female genitalia.

None of the five things you mentioned have anything to do with feminism. You equate it with women having the upper hand, but there are many sexually submissive feminists.

Maybe it was to counteract all those porn movies you guys are watching where women are basically holes with no personality. Just saying.

^ This.
Oh man, feminist ideas in a movie. Shocking wow. Women that want to have sex, weird right?
It never happens to you so it must be a complete illusion.
Feminism is the worst for infiltrating into our entertainment!
If only there was a better representation of men in films.
I mean like for real you guys, where are all of the stories about men?!!
That's some sexist beep right there.

A woman is nothing but a 2 holed wonder. And sometimes 3 (if you are a REALLY lucky douchebag).
