I found a flaw in your poll. There *was* no movie called "Highlander II". Never happened. Nope. Sorry.

Yikes. Not sure how I'd feel about monitoring calls on something like that. Although, in some ways it might have been easier, knowing there was a sort of safety in case the person on the other end of the line got out of hand and became abusive? But then, it's very anonymous, so them being abusive might just be part of…

Internet outrage driving me red with fury

Couldn't read this. My brain locked up at the term "90's revival".

That was my comment when they showed the first art from it a few weeks ago - about damn time she really looked greek! :)

That seems like a very uncomfortable situation.

Just don't give in to a fit of the vapors.

Well, since you can't hypnotize anyone into doing stuff they wouldn't do anyways...? :(

I'd upvote this if I could. But this isn't reddit.

Ender's Game was one of the tamest things I read from my school library. Of course, that's kind of a misleading statement, since they also carried adult Heinlein and Stephen King and some religious analysis that was pretty wild. I doubt it's still there after all these years.

Ooooh, Oscar Wilde! I haven't read any Moliere, thank you for mentioning him!

It's ok. You still have the best cheese in the US. You and Vermont.

And spouses whose wives died of cancer. And people who just decided that hey, you know what? We used to be great together but these days we don't get along and shouldn't really be married. And people whose spouses are serial cheaters who bring diseases home. It punishes *everyone*.

I just checked, it still works?

LOLZ! For the last line.

Absolutely! Are you up for a bet? I'll bet you .001 of the itnerwebs and a cute kitty picture I get some sort of routine form response. And that somewhere in there it says "Thank you for expressing your interest" or something like that. :)

As old as the Thousand and One Nights, at any rate.

So, if you're ok with me asking, did you turn down the calls? Did you have any choice in the calls you took, or if a caller made you uncomfortable?

Not *every* choice. Choices that harm others are not ok without the informed, adult consent of those others, no matter your gender. But... I feel this way about men too. That men should be free, as adults, to give up their power and be whoever they want to be. It's not really feminism, it's humanism; gender doesn't…

Feminism is about being free and empowered. One of the aspects to being empowered is the choice to subvert your own power, as a conscious decision by an informed adult. She thinks it's hot, so for her, it's hot, and who are we to tell her "no no no, your sexytimes are all wrong"? Our saying that would be patronizing…
