Oh damn.

I once screencapped a comment by a guy on bloodydisgusting who perfectly summed up Ryan Murphy's showrunner philosophy in how he portrays his characters and their anachronistic nature. Here it is:

Funny how a woman tries to make a film and it's immediately assumed to be a female version of a pre-existing male film…

Dude, I'm with you. I still remember Sam putting that DAMN SCYTHE into his backpack and never pulling it out again.

That sounds like Season 1 Dean. Also, I hope any sex he's having while possessed isn't rapey.

So I heard it was Zachary Quinto's role in this that got him enough publicity to go on to play Sylar in Heroes. Is he good in this?

You mean shits, right?

No, that's Jake Van Dorn.

Doesn't anyone remember that show about sex and high school on FX? "The Bedford Diaries"

And people wonder why male geeks are always identifying with the heroes while the female ones feel left out…

I still remember Remar in "The Girl Next Door" doing an uncanny impression of who I'm pretty sure is supposed to be Max Hardcore.

I remember that painting.

No

I remember her for on her for her guest review of Scream Queens, but what she's REALLY known for is an essay about dealing with street and regular harassment all her life. It's quite affecting.

God yes, the Abhorsen books are the coolest and most compelling damn fantasy novels I ever read when I was young and even new stuff just doesn't comapre to learning about the River of Death.

No, talking to survivors it's VERY confusing. For instance, if there was no penetration, but they wouldn't stop touching you, if they locked the door, if they said things that were gross but not outright threats, how do you report them? You feel like you can't call it rape, but it was more than you being

That's not a very good tip in reality. Countless survivors say they weren't even able to call their encounter rape for years because it's often so confusing. Add to that the fact that only 3% of reports leads to convictions, and that reporting it is extremely stressful and often more damaging than the rape itself, the

"You can joke about rape, as long as you don't make rape a joke"

You just pegged it. Courts will disalow confessions, testimony, and even video to the jury if certain restrictions aren't followed. They'll turn to a person who just heard something damaging and say "disregard that"
