Jannica adds, “I didn’t understand what he was abusive about… and I’m fully aware that we all have different experiences, and we’re all in different places. For me, personally, it wasn’t… the joke was offensive. I think that’s cool.”
She goes on to explain that the character “GI Jane” – Jordan O’Neill, was played by Demi Moore In the ’90s – she was portrayed as a badass as tough as nails, and a symbol of female empowerment…that to her, she would have considered a rock joke as a compliment rather than a mean one.
