Taking a class called “sex scenes” by master thespian James Franco strikes me as just maybe possibly a tiny bit like someone choosing to strip (at a conventional establishment) then asking the owner for an apology because he/she felt exploited. Which is not to say he/she was not legimitately exploited, but just, well…

I realized on Martin Luther King, Jr. day that I am older than he was when he was killed. It not only made me feel old, but also made me feel small, knowing how much he did in a fairly short life.

While I am careful about putting obligations on the part of a woman to not be assaulted, THIS needed to be said. Women are (WILD GENERALIZATION COMING) often eager to please and slow to disappoint. It did not appear that she could not have left, or that she would be facing some negative consequences of telling Ansari…

This was a bad date. She had a horrible date with a clueless guy who thought he was being sexy and hot. She was made to feel uncomfortable, and it wasn’t right.

Funny how if another singer’s death, a celebrity with the exact same views as her would have been reported on this site, you and your ilk wouldn’t have bat an eye lid at comments like mine.
