A basic “big feminist” claim is that women in leadership matter to women’s work environment. Research mostly supports th

The Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film says that 19% of Hollywood’s screenwriters (in the top 100 grossing films) in 2019. And, women don’t get to talk much in Hollywood productions. Just 34% of named female characters from the same list and year…actually speak words.

These title sequences feel like they feature a lot of women’s names. These are not just the actresses but the producer, director, casting, scriptwriters and so on. Women directed only 10 percent of major Hollywood movies in 2019…and that was an increase so significant that it warranted news coverage:

According to new research, more than 10 percent of the directors on last year’s top films were women, which was more than twice as many as in 2018 and the highest number in over a decade. “More Women Than Ever Are Directing Major Films, Study Says” by Cara Buckley (New York Times)

Indeed, consciousness could, as Penrose has suggested, be a result of the quantum entanglement of the brain with itself causing it to become self-aware via its global connectedness, in which case, consciousness is not unique but endemic to the universe. It is only in the brains of higher organisms, however, that it achieves the level of organization to create genuine self-awareness.

Perhaps the body or more properly the brain is like a vessel and the mind is water, filling it. When the vessel is broken, the water spills out and drains away, perhaps to reform again one day. This is the Descartesian dualism of the ghost in the machine.

According to science, a lie is something that goes against evidence. The evidence contradicts it. In logic and mathematics, it is something that violates logic. It is a logical contradiction.

not hit his head or broken his neck. Unfortunately, he did not have a dislocated shoulder. His injuries were more like those of a motorcycle accident: broken scapula, broken collarbone, a dozen broken ribs. And a punctured lung which, later that night, filled with blood. We did not eat granola bars that day. The button-down shirt never came out of the bag. Ten days, two surgeries, and one blood transfusion later, Josh came home.

When you watch as many Hallmark movies as I have watched, you start to notice those title sequences. That is where my fragile argument for a feminist reading of Hallmark movies begin.

Perhaps the mind is like a story about the vessel of the body (or brain) that the universe makes in order to know itself. As the painter paints the vessel, the writer adds to the story. When the vessel is broken, the story remains. Knowing is as much a part of the universe as existing and all knowledge remains within the universe (according to quantum conservation of information). Thus, our consciousness (we might even venture to call it our soul) is emergent from the brain rather than living in the brain, a story that is told, and then put away for another time.

Women in the Hallmark Movie Universe may give it all up to marry a plumber in Evergreen, Oregon because he buys her a Christmas tree. But on a few important measures like women who speak and women who put words in people’s mouths, HMU behind-the-scenes scores “feminist” points.

What makes people aware? Does consciousness exist apart from the body? Yet, if it weren’t for the body providing feedback to the consciousness, would consciousness exist? I.e., without something to behold, does the beholder exist?

In the Hallmark Movie Universe (HMU) you are guaranteed to hear a woman speak in every single movie. She may not say much but your ears are going to hear a female voice for 62 straight minutes.

The HMU doesn’t do as great across the line with women directors as I would have thought they did. In 2019, only 8 percent of the movies on that same Christmas list were directed by women. If anyone took HMU seriously, they might look at why that is…

Alternatively, consciousness is the effect of the interaction of mind with matter. And if there are no “things” such as mind and matter to begin with, only interaction, might all consciousness be part of the universe’s own interconnectedness? The ultimate interaction.

Could the universe, with its high level of organization at the scale of billions of lightyears, be aware of itself in this way through the instantaneous connection of entanglement? Nobody knows.
