I wonder what his interactions with male academics are like- does he interrupt them and flirt with them repeatedly?
That was my first thought- one of my pet peeves is people referring to classical pieces as "songs". Ditto for jazz, or any instrumental music.
Maybe her mother is just adding more details about their relationship- pointing out an unusual aspect that implies Reeva didn't trust him already. This sounds nothing like a defense to me. A defense against what? Against all those people who...don't think married couples should have sex? Even the most horrid…
Really sorry guys this isn't the actual Nina Garcia :-(
Your point about diversity is totally fair- I just mean there are anti-women, anti-gay, etc. elements in each of those 3. To move forward, I don't think the answer is to blame religion, per se- I think it's to call bullshit on those using religious 'freedom' to oppress others (again, Hobby Lobby).
A "right to pray" for other people is also...not a thing. Freedom of religion, yeah. Which means you get to practice your own religion on your own time. It doesn't mean you get to violate other people's right to privacy to fulfill your 'requirement' for prayer.

Just had the thought that her "I must not tell lies" punishment was straight-up victim-blaming...
Whoa so logically, my boobs are more powerful than a semi-automatic rifle. Cool.
Just noise, white noise.
What if we're all just being unfairly mean to this poor soul who actually thinks Ghostbusters was a documentary and 100% real?
Somewhere there are some very rich ad execs absolutely laughing their asses off. "They actually ACCEPTED these ads? Go fetch me another Cognac."
I'm very torn on this. One on hand- yes, he seems like a racist, antisemitic douchebag and we have no proof he's genuinely changed. However, the babysitter example doesn't really work here, because there's nothing SPECIFICALLY about being racist that makes him unfit to be a fashion designer- any more than it makes him…
