Minx, The Unlikely friendship between a Feminist and a Porn editor

[Madeline Everleigh]

Minx is an upcoming Comedy for HBO Max, and this could be a potential quality feminist content. Joyce is an aspiring Magazine editor from the 1970s who wants to empower women. She tried to Pitch her concept of a Magazine called Matriarchy Awakens, but Publishers declined her idea. The women’s rights movement are still in its infancy during the 1970s. In the view of Toxic Masculinity, the concept she proposes will not sell copies. Her ambition is to create a magazine that will empower women who believe they are being treated as second-class citizens and breakthrough glass barriers.
Joyce (Ophelia Lovibond ) is disheartened by the rejection, but there is still hope. The aspiring editor meets the sleazy publisher Joe(Jake Johnson). Joe is not her ideal boss to work for, but he is the only...

Oops, unlikely indeed and she is surely going to face judgement for this. It's complicated in a good way though. I can see how they'll turn things around in a way everyone can accept.

Hope this won't lead to a romance. I just want to see platonic friendship because romance is cliche and It will be more empowering to show a man and a woman can be close platonic friends.

She should hook up with one of the models instead!

I have a warning about this show. I just watched it, and it is so Good that Joyce's Magazine is my Avatar now. You will see a lot of Wieners. The audition scene gives me a montage of peckers but its hilarious.

Ophelia Lovibond is a character actress I always wanted to see getting the lead role. I am Glad she finally get what she deserves.

Minx is Like Glow minus the wrestling. It has almost the same theme of women empowerment during sexist eras.

 

[Awakens]

I watched episode 3 and 4 and I am fully hooked. Shane is a likable character and I want to see more of him.

A feminist magazine editor from the 1970s meets a porn magazine editor and an unlikely business relationship blooms? Uh huh. Well that's FICTION for sure. But I guess it will make a good show. ()

By contrast, this is FACT. When Hugh Hefner passed away he left his “iconic men's magazine” in the hands of his daughter. The first thing she did was announce that the magazine would no longer have nude photos of women and would produce intelligent reading content.

When the last time you heard somebody say something about Playboy magazine? How come nobody wants to movie or TV show about how Hefner's daughter managing that magazine??? LOL.

Learned a lot about the culture of the 1970s LA from this show. It also shows to not judge a book by its cover because the Models of the Magazines are very nice people. Then the conservative council woman is a hypocrite. Bambie and Joyce formed an unlikely sisterhood too. A ditzy porn model and a brainy feminist became team of women fighting for their rights. The love triangle between Joyce, The nude model Shane and Joyce's ex boyfriend is also cool.
