Sadly, I have caught myself taking mental notes during shows like this on how to leave behind evidence if I'm attacked.

@eastofwest: You put that beautifully. I knew I felt something "off" about them but couldn't put my finger on it. It was the smugness.

@Dancingfrog: It doesn't need to be IN context to be any less horrifying. Shall we start listing the Bible verses where all this garbage originates?

@snobographer: I know when I was a little girl, I longed for the day when my father would sit down my potential husband and haggle my bride price. Swoon.

You tell 'em MIA! Love that girl.

OH MY GOD

@JennaW: Don't forget having to marry your own rapist, and that women "enjoyed" their rape if they don't cry out loud enough, and therefore must be stoned.

@CynicalPink: I completely agree, I've identified it as such for years.

@ILiketheWord'Pugilist': Exactly. I view it like Stockholm Syndrome. They're trying to get whatever power or sense of control they can, and oppressing other women is the only way they can do it. Its not unlike we women crowd around a promiscuous woman and scream "Slut!", falling back on a standard of sexuality that…

@Hana Maru, used up old slutbag on the pole: My fundamentalist parents (including a pastor father) repeatedly drilled into my head both through actions and words that women are to be submissive and subservient to men, to the point of always deferring to them on everything even when they are horribly wrong. It…

"The problem with conflating (very valid) criticism of patriarchal notions of hotness with hysteria about hookup culture is that it equates having sex for physical pleasure — or for any reason other than emotional connection — with simply satisfying the desires of men." Bingo.

@dripdrop: I can't wait for Jon Stewart to declare that Christmas came 353 days early this year.

@Zulkey: You think that's bad? When I was in Brownies, the troop leaders also had daughters in the troop (I have no idea if this is standard or not, but I remember not envying them. Who wants your MOM around when you're hanging with your girlfriends? I didn't! lol) Those two consistently sold hundreds of boxes every…

@pantsless economist...access RESTORED: "and in their natural habitat, which is a hot tub with a suspicious orange ring around the edge."

Stuff like this makes me want to weep and leave this effed up thing we call society all together.

I don't know what seems more nightmarish to me, that they're all touching Milla's belly, or the matching cheap polyester wigs/dresses.

@alexma1812: I recall a few schools using video games *gasp* to promote fitness by playing DDR (which this cardio junkie can affirm, does wonders for your heart ratewhen you play it on the difficult levels)

@alexma1812: Maybe its not the implication that's causing offense, but the fact that so many are speaking in offensive, all encompassing stereotypes. "I don't think gamers are the most productive bunch"? That's just unfair. I work up to 70 more hours a week, as does my significant other. When we're not working, or…

@Shadowfxd: Word. It got my boyfriend into a six figure job as a VP of a software development company. It got me in a professional writing career. Both of which took effort and education, whereas last I checked on LeBron, that trophy case has a little empty spot where the college diploma should be. At least with your…

@Rocospi: People are probably "hating" 'cause it sounds like a pre-programmed answer that his parents drilled into his head.
