I wrestle with the conflicting beliefs that A) women are often coerced through violence and intimidation to go against their own values in the interest of self-preservation so I will give this story the benefit of the doubt and B) These are exactly the lies I would tell if I got caught committing a terrible crime if…

Really?! That is deliciously typical of Jezebel.

It didn’t. She edited the article after I said that so now I look like an idiot. There was absolutely no reference to Baby Got Back in the original post and she clearly had no idea what Blake was quoting.

Problematic is the most meaningless/lazy word

this is like a teen version of a hannibal episode.

The only reason this is being addressed is because it is on video. Academia is still a cesspit of double standards and everyone knows it.

and I’ve already wasted enough effort on you.

Exactly! It shouldn’t even matter if their relationship is physically incestuous because it’s clearly emotionally incestuous and he’s prioritizing his sister over his fiancee so DTMFA.
