Oh yeah, huge difference. Huge. What was I thinking?

Wow. That is one fuck-ugly monstrosity. Its like, wilfully horrible.
Wow, they doubled down and made it boring as fuck on the inside as well. Was the old one not a success? There seemed to be thousands of the things around our way.
I’m assuming this is such a conservative design so it leaves a free run for the AMG GT to have the “wow” factor. Very disappointing though (I feel the same way about the new Audi A7 as well).
If we don’t protect ourselves from the baby-eating culture by knowing about it before he gets on our spaceship, who indeed?
By the end he does consider the harm he’s doing, although even then its because its affecting their ability to do their jobs, not because they’re having uncontrollable sex. Also, it wouldn’t be much of a story if it was “alien considers the social ramifications of his physiology and make’s sure it doesn’t affect…
It failed miserably for you.
No, I don’t think rape is about sex, but if sex is not seen as an issue of agency and control in the first place, then issues of consent (and let’s be honest rape is really about control) become unimportant as well, and from the alien’s point of view, that’s the point. The alien is unconcerned about consent because,…
No, it challenged the taboo that sex is important, and in actual fact it challenged a particular Judeo-Christian 21st century view of the importance of sex, so not even a taboo that applies to all humans in all times and places.

Aliens should be...alien.…
Would American women really be appalled by another woman getting changed in front of them? I’m learning a lot this week.
really, really, not.
Oh come on, any species travelling on the closed environment of a spaceship would need to be vetted for funny chemicals/desire to store their larvae in your chest cavity/laser eyes etc. whether they were members of the club or not.
You’re making the mistake of judging an alien by your own values. He made it pretty clear that in his own culture nobody cares, and let’s face it for a species that goes into heat, why would they? Our sexual mores and taboos are a function of the fact that we’re sexually available most of the time.
Person who doesn’t understand the way laws work. The second point is conditional on the first numbnuts.
Second fucking line, “in public”. What part of “in public” don’t you understand?
Find an indecent exposure conviction that took place in private. Just one. You won’t because that’s not the intent of indecent exposure law.
