Bechdel Violence

Representation Matters.

Deadpool 2

Deadpool 2 does not pass the Bechdel Test, but the case against it is compelling.

  1. Negasonic is referred to by name in a conversation between two men, without clear indication of who belongs to the name.
  2. The scene in which she and another woman pass the Bechdel test is post-credits.

Deadpool 2 contains infrequent graphic violence towards women and very frequent graphic violence towards men.
