I’m an old (was an adult during the 80's. This was the very accepted, family-friendly norm to present the sexuality of a young woman on TV. She was a good girl (aka a virgin) being seduced by the dark side. Or she did a bad thing (had sex) and had a very bad outcome (got pregnant). Then she contemplates an abortion…
Looking back on it, you can see the red flag in Cosby’s hyper-fixation on virginity. For example, when Denise elopes and comes home, Cliff asks his new son-in-law if his daughter was a virgin on their wedding night. When the SIL confirmed she was, Cliff has this creepy grin on his face. (I think it was meant to be…
Thank you. I hated the stereotypes of this movie: tragic lonely gay man, sassy black maid, lonely unlovable disabled woman, evil white boss man. And this was our best picture of the year?
The thing about consent is, you both have to do it. If she did not think it was consensual, then it was rape. And he admitted that.
You’re right, rape is actually the same thing as sex, and this is an awesome tasteful joke.
Well no, actually, not at all. But thanks for playing and can’t believe your 14 stars.
I realize the English language has a lot of complication and nuance, but I’m relatively certain we have a term for what happens when you have sex with someone and they dont consent.
I realize this is not as important, but I saw his film along with the other nominated animated shorts, and it was a half-finished pile of vanity crap.
There is a part of me thats digging the crossovers lately. These sites are so compartmentalized and need fresh voices and perspectives. And agreed, Diana is such an integral part of Deadspin; she puts a tremendous amount of thought and research into her pieces.
Every single time I hear about Bryant - all of his awards, the massive accolades he got when he retired - I remember this case and shake my head. And you know what else I remember? More people had words about the giant diamond ring he bought his wife ‘as an apology for cheating on her’ than they did for the fact that…
Second that. I rarely read Deadspin, but when I do, 99% of the time it’s her stuff.
And Jimmy Kimmel pals around with Kobe. So much for that ally
Just in case any jez readers don’t recognize the byline, Diana is basically one of the raddest women employed by gmg. Deadspin is lucky to have her there. 👍🏻
Seriously, fuck this guy.
The Kobe thing is infuriating because sports radio hosts named her and said she deserved to lose her anonymity because she accused someone of rape. It’s also disgusting that Kobe was given a hero’s exit when he retired and everyone pretty much forgot about the rape case. Everyone also overlooks the fact that Kobe is a…
Who are all these hot take fucking trolls up in here?! Victim blaming, rude ass motherfuckers. Why are they at the top?!
Who ungreyed the troll. STOP DOING THAT.
[MILD SPOILER ALERT] I caught an advance screening of Red Sparrow a couple of weeks ago, and while I’m glad J.Law feels like those scenes helped her reclaim her power, they’re deeply gross in the context of the movie. The PR spin might be that this is a tale of a strong woman breaking free of evil men, but in…
“And if you don’t like boobs, you should not go see Red Sparrow.”
