In all fairness, this particular moment wasn't real crying (also, I LOVE this episode!).

Ha! I love my dog to itty-bitty pieces, but he's TOTALLY an asshole.

Yeahh.....no.

Anyone else getting the "this video is private" statement? I also tried the link over at HuffPo.

You're right about the "sex is rape" - it's one interpretation of something she said, rather than an actual quote. My error.

Yeah, but...there are plenty of other feminists with similar backgrounds from that time who managed NOT to be transphobic or claim that all PIV-sex is automatically rape.

Completely OT: I'm digging this top or dress or whatever. Which is not something I thought I'd ever say about Paula Deen's wardrobe.

Oh god, that episode.

Excellent point!

OMG, I LITERALLY just watched that episode yesterday, in my sickbed. If there's anyone smarmier than Riker, I don't want to hear about it.

I don't wanna gender-police here, but um...isn't that a Penis Woman and Vagina Man? (Which, personally, I think is even radder than the other way around.)

I love a Buffy gif as much as the next obsessed Whedonite, but omg, this one...nope. SMG is the WORST at laughter-acting, bless her heart.

I don't disagree, but I think that's a whole 'nother article. And definitely one that should be done.

He really did. I was impressed; he brought a lot of poignancy to a character that easily could've been unlikeable.

Which cracks me up, because I'm an EDITOR, ffs, and I DON'T CARE! It's all about audience and context, and I love to point to Lindy West's writing as an example of brilliant, purposeful flouting of grammatical rules.

Me, too! I don't even remember my parents together (I was 2), and I'm really glad cuz I'm pretty sure it would've made my life hell if they'd stayed together. And I largely got on well with my step-parents, so I lucked out.

Mean, heartless, vile...and proof that cunning does not mean smart. Because he is really not very smart.

Right? I keep getting confused about how far along she is because she's not showing very much.
