Ooooohhhh....that's so bad it goes right back around to hilarious.
I actually think the rape scene cemented Maggie as an even stronger character and the Governor as a manipulative genius. The way I interpreted it, the Guv realized that raping Maggie wasn't going to break her. The only way to break either of them was to threaten death.
For every time I want to accuse the writers of having problems writing women, there's a scene with Maggie or Carol that does a much better job.
This is my sentiments exactly.

So they have the capacity to write women better, but choose not to with Andrea and Michonne?

That's what I'm thinking. If anything, that makes Andrea even more annoying. (I'm still holding out hope on Michonne just not really fitting atm.)
People Michonne is fighting zombies, not Samurai. As long as you can swing the sword without hitting yourself, you're good.

Well said!
Clearly though a lot think that it takes some crazy katana skills to take out one of these mindless beings. Hell I've never taken lessons before, but I can guarantee everyone that if that was the only weapon I had, I'd make every swing count! I'm sure you have to hit the right angle to lop a head off with one swing but after almost a year of doing it everyday I'm sure it would almost come natural.

I think they are referring to how she holds the sword and how she swings it, not how well she kills things with it...
It doesn't really matter to me, but I'm a novice when it comes to sword use. I actually just bought some practice swords a few months ago and have been watching some videos, and practicing a little with friends. I didn't buy them because of this show either (or any show for that matter). I've just always been fascinated by weapons, mainly guns, but lately I've started buying other types (compound/recurve bows, crossbows, throwing knives, etc) and teaching myself how to use them properly...

and we all know that by simply holding a sword your God given Ninja skills take over Manchurian Candidate style so you can whisp away in the trees, be lightning quick indoors running around store displays, and out maneuver bullets (well, maybe your skin cant but the body well does) but the moment that swords out of hand you cant fight your way out of a paper bag.

Check a few pages back (though be wary of the rampant misogyny).

The writing is the misogyny, criticism of misogynistic writing is just that, criticism. It's too bad you haven't a clue about the difference.

wonder what comes out of the end of this thing?
That gun is a Beretta 92FS I'm pretty sure, which is a 9mm. That hole is maybe big enough for a .22, but definitely not a 9mm :unsure

Perhaps it's a very powerful BB gun Carl has been using

Yeah I guess the first pic it could just be the angle of the shot, but it still looks a little too small. Of course small details like this don't bother me much...
