Don't remember it exactly, but it was something like, "With a mug like that, you'd better be really, really funny… and Lena Dunham sure isn't."

Oh, I certainly don't think the fans are absolutely free of racism. I said "majority" and not "99%" for a reason. But the detractors are just as capable of caving into misogyny, at least from what I've observed, which is, like racism, an icky, unpleasant, potentially true label. Maybe someone can pull up a spreadsheet…

No wonder Dworkin resonates so strongly with you: vilifying Todd, ALL-CAPS STYLE, and inciting an accompanying crusade, clearly take precedence over things like context and intentionality. Equating the use of "whore" in reference to an archetype to its use as a sexist slur? You're smarter than that, chocolatestigmata.

Yeah, fuck that program yet again showcasing rich, smug, racist, sexist white people starring Richard Harris's son and Matthew Weiner's son. Wait, what were we talking about again?

Plenty of us like the show a lot, though. Correlate the community grades to Todd's grades: yes, there's a little disparity, as there is with plenty of shows, but it's not nearly large enough to indicate that everyone hates it here. I honestly believe Todd's guilting has more to do with a gut reaction to sexism than…
