Lol STFU you crybully. I was perfect civil to you in my initial response. You then wrote a two-line reply ignoring everything I said and insinuating I was an abuser. Then you edited that, repeated the insinuation again plus the suggestion that maybe I’m brainwashed by past abuse. You’ve done the same thing to…

So I’m obviously referring to actions rather than experiencing the emotion of jealousy.

You don’t think being controlling and manipulative is emotional abuse? You don’t think telling your girlfriend that she can only socialize with friends he has pre-approved is controlling and emotionally abusive?

But controlling behavior is not the same thing as misandry, or misogyny.

So the situation I described is misandry, then? If not, why not?

Controlling? Sure, the request is controlling by definition. But manipulative? I dunno. Dude was straight up about what he wanted and said he’d totally get it if she left.

Imagine what it would look like after he’d gotten her to move in and had increasingly isolated her, maybe gotten her to give up her career with his weird ass demands and basically made her dependent on him?

How about you explain it to me, since you clearly have a better grasp on it, and I’ve already made my position pretty clear?

I largely agree with you. But, having thought about it, is this really misogyny? If a woman got jealous of her boyfriend posing with scantily-clad women all day for his job, would we be calling it misandry? Seems to me that jealousy isn’t a gendered thing, and we’re just taking her word that there was a misogynistic…

Jonah Hill made certain demands in the relationship. Those demands were bad: super unreasonable, petty, controlling, and born of deep insecurity. You could even argue they were misogynistic or narcissistic; that’s all fine. And for his own sake, if nothing else, Hill needs to get over whatever is making him this way.

I don’t know if you know what you’re doing here, but you’re trying to slip out of your own stance every time you’re called on it. Every time you answer the question you then obfuscate your answer by going on about Ballinger herself, when what I’m trying to get at is your broader moral principle.

I assume it’s so they can make a bunch of jokes about how the Daredevil movie/Elektra sucked.

Would this be okay with you? It’s just makeup right. No need to think about the racist implications of it.

I actually didn’t like this film, ending or no. Easily the weakest of the 4. The dragon’s breath scene was cool but they ruined it with the floating camera. The steps scene was kinda cool as well, but the others felt pretty boring and un-kinetic.

You literally said that you might have gotten the facts wrong and that you weren’t following the situation while arguing with me that Ballinger wasn’t at fault for anything in the past.

“I got the facts of the situation wrong, but I’m still going to tell you why you’re wrong.” Cool.

I’ll admit that I might be wrong about the facts of what she did. I haven’t been following this story closely, and I really don’t know much about this woman beyond that RS article you linked and this one.

Also, I just want to highlight some of the word-games you’re playing with your posts here.

I don’t care what else she’s done - we’re talking about this incident here, and your assertion that:
