I wonder what their sense of humor will be like after they get slapped with hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of lawsuits for acting like a bunch of brownshirts towards a 70 year old man and lose? And they will lose. Big.

Could you explain to me why someone who pays more for a perk shouldn’t receive the perk over someone who didn’t pay for it.

It’s getting increasingly difficult to distinguish Jezebel from religious fundamentalists, when it comes to the subject of sexuality. Seems like a lot of others in the comments are also wondering what’s so scandalous. The pictures are no worse than the average selfie posted on every single social media platform.

Good point. The complete irrelevance of this sort of atavistic feminism to young people today is why it won’t go anywhere other than a few fist-pumps on Jezebel. Shulamith Firestone feminism is never coming back.

It’s OK. I have zero interest in Lorde as well. Not sure if that makes us a “we” though, in Bobby Finger land.

Apparently, the people who do count as “we” and the people who don’t do not.

I’m wondering how “Bobby Finger” — never heard of him — knows whom “we” care about seeing?

It’s not comedy’s job to be moral. It’s comedy’s job to be funny.

You mean, like you?

You’re reading motives is precisely the problem. Well, that and making claims for which there are obvious counterexamples. Legions of them in fact.

The only ego here is yours. You’re the one who’s offended. You’re the one who reads motives. Etc. Very good at accusing. Not so good at backing up your claims.

When I see something interesting, I comment on the merits. Not on the basis of clicks. I saw this, thought it was interesting and commented.

Great. I’m happy to let readers look at your bald faced assertion, with neither evidence nor argument, and weigh it against the substantial list of prominent gay actors I listed and make up their own minds.

You do realize that just repeating that over and over again is not an argument. Do you actually have an argument to refute all the counterexamples I gave, or are you just stamping the floor?

You have quite a low bar for “monsters.” I tend to save that term for serial killers, totalitarian dictators and the like, rather than for people whose politics or humor I dislike.

No, your point doesn’t “stand.” And just simply burping up the word ‘truth’ doesn’t make what you’ve said true.

Right, all those gay actors stuck in the film ghetto.

“But if you want a cliffnotes version: body modification comes as a sort of rebellion against societal norms for her, amongst other things.”

He’s absolutely right.
