And she has a point she's trying to make. Yesterday, Ms. Hyndes was an exemplar of feminism in the boys' rock club. Today, she's being treated like a hopeless little girl who doesn't understand the world. Read and try to understand her point; don't just cover it over with what everybody else has said. What she has to…

Not necessarily. You are to blame for robbing my house. If I left the door unlocked, then I'm responsible for making it easy for you. Taking responsibility in this case means saying, "Ok, that was a crappy thing that happened. Maybe I should lock the door when I go out. Maybe I should consider bars on the windows…

Oh, dude, you're just bitter because I called out your misquotes in another part of this thread.

Look. the AV Club is a place where one can usually come and exchange meaningful ideas in a thoughtful manner in the comments. The topic here today is a difficult one but I'm trying very hard to engage with it seriously and with honesty. If the best you can do is call me names and tell me what to do with myself, then…

Are you saying, that, if you went to a biker's rally dressed in the skimpiest clothing you could find and were attacked, you would just do the same thing again next weekend? Are you saying that you would be unable or unwilling to learn from the experience to prevent the likelihood of a repeated experience? That's not…

I already apologized. And I changed the wording. You were right. Please don't attack me for trying to talk about another point than the one you are on about.

Well, I would never accuse a woman of being a shrill harpy with no sense of humor about a rape button. I'd agree with her. But that said, what's more important, her safety or what some other random man thinks about her?

Rotten Headline AV Club!

Looking back at this article… What a crappy headline. Ms. Hyndes never says she "blames" herself. She says she "takes responsibility" for herself. Blame and responsibility are not the same thing. We blame the tiger for attacking a person, we hold the person responsible for putting him or her self in harm's way.

Agree with you… but at a biker rally, surrounded by his hyper-masculine friends is never gonna be a successful venue to change somebody's opinions about this sorta thing. Hell, I'm an adult male, and it's my god-given right to go wear a bikini and flirt with bikers at their rally. There is NO WAY I'm going to do that…

I wrote this a little higher in another response. Blame and responsibility are not the same things The blame lies with the rapist. The responsibility lies with everyone. Broad example of this: We blame Al Qaeda for bombing the World Trade Center and the Pentagon in 2001. But we hold our government responsible for…

If we experience something bad in life and choose to say, "I screwed up, but I'm smarter, faster, better for the experience," that's not a bad thing. It doesn't let an attacker off the hook. You're right, there's no one to blame but the rapist, but responsibility and blame are not the same thing. Responsibility can,…

I apologize if my choice of words offends, but I'm much more interested in arguing about how people talk down to Chrissie Hyndes like she's a little girl who needs to be lectured to over her opinion. I'll edit my post though if it helps you get back to the issue of patronizing a grown and admirable woman because she…

I think Ms. Hynde's point is that she identified this man's inalienable nature and background and still put herself in a dangerous position. I think her argument is similar to, "This tiger is hungry and likes to eat meat, but it should be ok for me to go and pet him," is a foolish choice. No, the guy is not off the…

I don't understand: Chrissie Hynde IS a smart, strong woman who has come a long way in the world. But she voices an opinion that is unpopular in today's world, and suddenly everybody gets to patronize her? "Oh, no, you're wrong, honey. That's not how it works."

I think Josh missed some point to this show.

You mean Dr. John?

Heheh, Maybe "Amazing" and "Gynysys" make up the whole list? I guess Daredevil 2003 and… "Elektra" count for the list. Maybe?

Mah. The "Amazing" flame-out was so hot and so glorious. It was "The First" and even Terminator's limp crash doesn't quite compare in my mind.

And hey, let's take a moment and marvel at whatever de-ageing CGI they used on Michael Douglas in the S.H.I.E.L.D. scene. I rememeber what Michael Douglas looked like in the late 80s and he looked just like that! with no dewy filter apparent. Nice work, CGI department!
