So you see no value in a live performance? If every artist sings a song once in a studio, and then just forever plays that track and lip-syncs to it, you're cool with that?

Okay, noted.

The Patriarchy, silly.

This comment seems bizarre, because it is completely generic. You don't once mention films or directors. Do you just cut and paste this into any discussion about jobs?

Yes, it's the "it's not you, it's me" that makes it nice and not "bitchy." Of course, maybe it is him, but as long as he's behaving, let him off the hook without making him feel too bad.

"I'm sorry but I do not want to have sex with you (right now). I would love to have sex with you some other time (presuming you do) but right now I'm tired/sleepy/not in the mood, and I think it would be best if you left."

I think that's actually a direct and relatively polite way to tell someone to get lost.

I travel a lot and stay at nice places, and women like you are what make hotel bars the best. I have the most interesting conversations at nice hotel bars. Also, sometimes sex, although not at the actual bar.

The source actually says, "Wright is facing 106 counts including prostitution and tax related offenses." That makes more sense.

Even if it's not love, it might still be something that he needs that he can't find with anyone else. If it doesn't fit your definition of love, fine, but it might be the closest thing he's capable of.

Nope, you're not the only one. I am mildly shocked that it got made, and that it has enjoyed so much success.

You are easily thrilled. Perhaps too easily.

Are those pasties, on top of her clothes? That sculptor has some explaining to do.

As long as I was getting paid, I suppose so.

There's nothing wrong with it, but lot's of people don't like to. I dislike condoms intensely.

Really? I think he looks a bit like the lovable Robert Goulet.

"I assume it’s gone forever."

There's a pretty good argument to be made that sex holds a special place among physical acts, and should be treated differently.

If anyone wants some interesting fox-related reading, Google the "silver fox experiment." Basically, it was a successful attempt to domesticate foxes, that also unexpectedly provided some insight into why domestic dogs have such an incredible array of phenotypes.

Good god, do not swerve!
