Carmen Electra looks reeeeally unsure about all this.

Exactly. The double standard thing is such a strawman. Firstly, men don’t get routinely catcalled so that they must change their route to and from work, worry about what they’re wearing, and are nervous to walk past men on the street. Secondly, there are no women advocating the catcalling of men and telling men it’s a…

The only thing I disagree with is that I don’t believe he will ever feel the fear element of being cat called. It’s not just the degradation that makes cat calling horrible. It’s that as women there’s definitely a fear of what the guy could do depending on your response. Henry Cavill aka Superman probs has never…

That’s not a double standard, unless people that are against catcalling are fine with it when women do it. When have you ever heard people standing up for the [largely imaginary] women that catcall? This is what’s known in the biz as a “strawman argument.”

Yeah, that’s pretty much the entire fucking point.

Hercules, and Iolaus, and Ares, and Caesar, and a few others whose names I can’t remember.

Yes, I’m aware of that stereotype, and the way bisexual characters (oh, oops, I meant “characters who don’t like labels”) are portrayed in fiction.

Yes, they did. Both died several times. Xena died for while and was replaced by her reformed enemy because Lawless had suffered a serious injury.

Not so unrealistic when there are multiple dimensions and you can stroll into Hades and just bring someone back anyway.

Yup. Xena more than Gab, but they both were resurrected at least once.

I never watched the show, but the video makes it look like they both died. Several times?

it’s true... Buff and I graduated the same year... granted I had a much different HS experience, not being on a hellmouth and all, but still milestones.... Buffy and I shares them.

IT’s treated that way because as a writer, he didn’t have control. Donald Southerland refused to follow the script and made things up as it suited him. The person who most got the concept of the script was Paul Reubens. Joss has never said much about Kristy, so I think he liked her fine.

I never understood why people treated it as an alien precursor; it was written by Whedon himself in his trademark everybody-sounds-the-same mallspeak and directed by a woman who was a future executive producer for both Buffy and Angel.

I cringed at that, too, because I love that movie, but she’s right. She did introduce Buffy to a lot of people. And also she got to do Joss Whedon’s vision as the movie didn’t really go in the direction he intended.

Along those same lines, a few years ago, a friend’s sister was hospitalized for months after falling from her apartment balcony. She had had just one drink at a notorious nightclub around here, and blacked out and walked home alone.

Looking back now there are at least two times I’m sure I was drugged, but wrote it off as being just really drunk. The first time I was in high school, away on some school academic bladibla thing in DC. The dude told me - TOLD me - his name was Mickey Finn. Right? It’s only shockingly recently that I’ve realized he…

shut up buffy!!! I was a freshman in high school like 5 yrs ago, i don’t know what you mean about 19 years...
