So, apparently, the whole "straw misogynist" thing is going to be a recurring theme in the Powerpuff Girls reboot.
>Meanwhile, one of the show’s most popular themes—a big dumb man (in this case, a lumberjack voiced by Futurama and Pinky And The Brain’s Maurice LaMarche) telling a girl she can’t do something, and then getting pummeled into the horizon for his closed-minded idiocy—is also on display.

That, or they somehow think it was a recurring theme in the original, even though in reality the girls have *never* beat someone up over a mere verbal prompt be it for gender or other reasons, *not even once, not even in Members Only*
I hope it's the latter, since at least then the *show* isn't ruined, AV Club are just idiots.
