Ikr! 🤣
Wow. You are such a boomer. How dare you. How dare you assume that a man that identifies as a man cannot be a women.

I guess I need sensitivity training as well because I don't understand the issue 😢

Is safe to say that James Bond is just an alias and not a spy real name. So it could be gender fluid. Using Ian’s Flaming work to back this is a bad idea. James bond was originally set in the 50s, so having a modern day james bond is already an adaptation and any other modification on the original is valid including a gender swap.
However I personally think if they want to make a woman 007 they should use the number code but different character, having james as the new Moneypenny.

Who knows and who cares? It’s apples and oranges.
007 can be anything…
I would recommend grabbing any copy of Ian Fleming’s work who created James Bond the character. You’ll be able to quickly back your assertion that Ian Fleming created James Bond as a man.

All of his pronouns are he/him! GUY

Did you just assume James Bond gender? 😱
Rising Star
Watch me! If James uses he/him pronouns, I have the right to call him a man.
What's the point of the training? It's unnecassary to begin with and it's not going to change your mind.
Rising Star
Don't say that too loud, or you may find yourself sitting in the folding chair next to me 😅
Need more context
As a woman I don’t find this objectionable 🤔 Tough luck OP

Hahaha.

I remember when asked about this topic Daniel Craig said he didn’t like the idea of James Bond becoming a woman. Instead the industry should write more stories with female roles.
I don’t disagree completely with him, but he misses a point. Any fictional character are like name said, imaginary, and can be reimagined whatever way possible.
Hollywood is a entertainment industry, they are constantly making remakes because it’s easier to sell to a crowd that is already familiar with this universe and if suddenly it is clear that a female james bond would make money they absolutely should (and will) do it, instead of trying to create a whole new character as charming as this one from scratch.
Enthusiast
Yeah, try that with established characters of other races…
Is this like Schrödinger’s cat problem?
ITT: people who think “James bond is a man” is a at all a controversial opinion, and not one held by the vast majority of people
y’all aren’t edgelords, y’all are mainstream af LOL
