Yeah. From what I gather, there is speculation that the statement 'Force is female' might end up in the series soon. Just from what I gather. I guess that is bad.
What, like the Nike ads?

Force is female came from Kathleen Kennedy during the time The Force Awakens was being made. I think shirts was made too.

But from what I can gather, there is speculation a character in Acolyte may feature a female Force being.
I got nothing to say here.

Clone Wars did it back in 2011 so sure why not.

Are you talking about where it is the Father, Son and Daughter? Where the Son is Dark Side and the Daughter is Light Side and I think the Father is the balance? Been awhile since the last time I saw it. I think the Daughter does show up once more in the series?

I'm not that into the more mystical stuff so I'm not 100% but I think the Daughter is still around as a white bird that's following Ahsoka around in her live action show.

Yeah not like we once saw manifestation of the force that has female voice actors. Isn't that right "Force Priestesses".

I watched the first episode. Not bad.

My cousin who is somewhat sensitive to the 'woke' part of the media says it's not bad either. Maybe this whole 'woke' thing is being blown out of proportion.

I'm most baffled that the "this is woke!" crowd thinks this show is over the line but Andor they're fine with.

Easy the main character in andor is a guy and they are too lazy to look beyond the more surface level of surface level analysis of a show.
