I have not read it, primarily because of the Twilight connection. But my sister-in-law who reads TONS of cheap e-porn said it was awful. Awful writing, not at all feminist, and unsexy. Also not really BDSM. Considering how bad something has to be before she won't finish it, I'll say that this was probably pretty bad.

When my son was a toddler he called them his "pirate parts." That could actually be fun, and you only have to change two letters.

Weird. I thought SF had foggy sweater weather year round.

Because of the grammar and spelling errors, I read the whole thing in a heavy Russian accent.

I agree, but creators and storytellers don't make movies. Studios do.

But I think that before the Iron Man movies came out, most people that you pulled off the street wouldn't have known who he was (aside from the subject of a Black Sabbath song). I don't believe that the majority of people who went to see Avengers have ever cracked the seal on a plastic cover around an Avengers comic.…

These are opinions of course. But something is going wrong somewhere. Maybe the problem is that we are complaining in the context of superhero movies. I love them and watch them, don't get me wrong. I have no problem with watching movies with male leads and casts. However: Only about 31% of named characters across all…

And yet fewer than 40% of named movie characters (in all genres, but including hero movies) are female. Have you heard of the Bechdel test? It's kind of a thought experiment. Does the movie have two named female characters who talk to each other about something other than a man? It sounds like a simple enough bar to…

They have a right to do it, and I have a right to complain about it.

Seriously, yes.

I'm not saying that there aren't logical reasons for pursing their business strategy. It's their story and they can tell it the way they want to. I'm just tired of the fact that women tend to be props, tokens, and window dressing in the movies. (As strong as Pepper Potts is, there is not going to be a Pepper Potts…

Yeah, it could be like a live-action, slightly less madcap version of Harvey Birdman. Crossed with Ally McBeal.

Oh, good one! I'm not familiar with Malin Akerman, but Elisabeth Rohm can do tough and military.

Women made it into the top five of "phases"? Right on! We were noticed! Maybe after all the sequels, group movies, and movies about other male heroes are done, we'll get a shot!

You got it in one! I had to google it, but n stands for notch.

To be fair, he is probably inundated with it on a daily basis, so I can see why he would be tired of it. I doubt I could spend any time around him without whipping out the big sarcasm guns.

My ex-husband used that term in some sexy fiction that he wrote as a teenager. (He also referred to vaginal fluids as "nectar.") So maybe this guy is actually not super old, but just mentally adolescent.

It's also possible that he's a delusional narcissist with sociopathic tendencies. But my only psychological training is watching a lot of talk shows as a child. I actually would rather live in the world where you are right, and this guy just needs some therapy/dom time to improve himself.

This past weekend I played a role-playing game module called "Chickens in the Mist." It involved a cock-fighting ring. Cock rings. A cock escaped into the bush. Scientists were looking for ways to make their cocks bigger. There were giant cock fights. A giant cock ripped its way out of a box. And at the end I had to…

If eating poultry makes penises smaller, then I'm really glad a few women whose sons I've had sex with had poultry when they were pregnant. They should have had more.
