Sure you would.

In general, the people on Jez who'd get mad at you for watching kink aren't the people who could tell you what company Deen has worked for or what they're known for. It's just all sort of a rambly mess of "wargrlebargrle violence against women!"

Just in here to say congrats on your sobriety (!), good luck with the rage thing, and high heels rock. And yeah, I'd fuck somebody up if he pulled that unexpectedly.

I know that there are scenes in his movies (what else do I call them? Porns?) where he's shown slapping and choking women, but I always thought it was part of the scenario he was acting out, not him flying into a rage and just beating the women.

The scenes you're talking about are part of his work with Kink.com, which has been really great about modeling a way to shoot ethical and consensual kink. All of the stars are interviewed before and after the scene, about why they want to do this and if they consent and if they're ok afterwards and if they'd do it…

To be fair, though, I'm guessing a lot of those involved pregnant actresses. You *can* deal with a pregnancy by filming around it (so far Homeland seems to be hitting it out of the park) but for some formats it's hard. (Thinking of Daphne's "fat storyline" in Frasier, in particular.)

You have to take the bad with the good with Kanye. His mouth has no filter, but sometimes it's magic.

I don't think that person was your friend.

words sting. I remember being in my early to mid 20s (not that long ago) and was maybe possibly anorexic, maybe not, but certainly obsessed with calories and running, I was 120 lbs and losing... eating 500 to 700 calories a day. I was with my boyfriend and his friend who was getting married the next day and his friend…

Lack of exposure. Most high schools don't teach about minstrely, so you are limited to those people that happened to encounter it in their college studies and had the necessary background to absorb it.

I'm so sorry to hear that. I mentioned elsewhere in the topics for this article, I lost a friend to anorexia in high school, and I still miss her.

TOTALLY understand! My mom once said something about my "Armenian arms" when I was a kid. I'm almost 41, and whenever I see a picture of myself, the first thing I still look at is how exposed my arms are. When people/friends talk about what they wish they could change about their bodies, I usually say that I don't…

In 7th grade my then "boyfriend" (we barely held hands) said his friend thought I looked like a chocolate eclair, as in I was 'big'. Its haunted me since. However, thanks to facebook, I'm soothed by the fact that my former "boyfriend" is pretty chubby.

Said so well.

It's so heartbreaking that we carry those specific experiences with us for so very long. I was having a drink with a close friend years ago who told me in so many words that I wasn't that attractive, so she didn't understand why strangers seemed to feel comfortable speaking to me (eg, asking for directions, whatever).…

Hi, you're totally right, and I understand. After I wrote the article I felt embarrassed at the weights listed. I was trying to give what an online source listed as the upper of the "healthy" weight range for a woman who was a little under 5'2". Please know I never meant to offend anyone of any size, as I hope my…

I can related to this on so many levels, and it's heartbreaking.

Or, For Cryering Out Loud!

Remember, not only was this episode a shake weight parody, it was also simultaneously and seamlessly a food-channel send-up. (Cream fraiche!)
