Yeah, if marriage is going to be your only job option, you’re going to try to get the best salary and benefits, preferably with a stable employer.

I saw three before I posted, in different comment threads, and couldn’t decide upon one to respond to. I chose that, and included romance in general, because both are narratives that primarily target women and are frequently constructed by women, with men disregarded entirely or, as with romcom films, assumed to be…

Yes, that article is funny. But men are not the target audience of romcoms. Per men, they hate them and will do anything to get out of watching them. So how would they be getting ideas from them? Isn’t it more likely that they are getting their ideas from their own literature and from each other?

I’m seeing a lot of replies blaming romcoms for providing the impression that this is the way things should be - guys press until the woman gives in - but...the problem here is with the IRL bad male behavior, not IRL women romanticizing that behavior.

NO RAGRETS.

Oh, I don’t know...the rumor I heard was keeping Jennifer Connelly and casting Tom Hiddleston, so it wouldn’t be a 15-yo’s sexual awakening in response to a fantasy about a much older man but an older woman and the now somewhat younger-appearing man (because our fantasies change) who is still obsessed with her...you…

Third victim now making a statement... Holtzclaw is trying to make eye contact with them.

You haven’t seen my boobs, tho.

My left boob is bigger than my right boob, so I qualify.

Yeah, Christmas for many women involves a great deal of wrapping and cooking and cleaning up for/after visitors, in addition to work and regular chores. It's not really a break.

Boyega and Ridley got like $300k/each, but get % points of revenue past $1 billion.

There is always a risk on the Internet that you’ll find yourself discussing a topic with someone who is way more interested in it than you.

I don’t think they are. Reylo was not accidentally sexual, it was intentionally sexual. Disney ain’t that edgy. No way they would’ve allowed that if they were planned to be related.

I don’t think they are because I think it’s too much for Hand and Leia to not know they had another child. And the twins thing was retcon from the early plan to hook Luke and Leia up. There’s no driver here.

Supposedly she has a much larger role in the next. I think she’s a double agent. I mean, that or she’s so ineffective she needs to be put out of our misery.

Idgaf about the Rey/Finn ship, and was being supportive of the poster who seemed to like them. Can you let people enjoy things for a few minutes?

I mean, there’s a lot of time left to get through before ep 8, so we’re going to use up everything before we’re done.

One thought I had...Sabé made it out of the prequels, didn’t she? Daisy Ridley looks like Keira Knightley. She doesn’t look like Natalie Portman. I know, that’s odd since Knightley looks like Portman, but Ridley manages it to look like one but not the other. It’s the dimple, and the jut of her jaw when she smiles.
