in sex lives of college girls s1 there’s a whole mystery about the dorm smelling and everyone immediately blaming bela, the indian main character. it’s revealed that it was the fridge, but everyone’s immediate assumption is that it’s bela’s fault.
I would *love* to hear everyone’s recommendations for references to smell in pop culture (tv, film, art, memes etc). Bonus points if it has an ethical angle, but certainly not essential.

it's so sinister how a lot of people think the solution is to have a class of disposable women to bear the brunt of men's sexual violence
When Denmark legalised hard-core porn, sex crimes fell by 30%. "Porn is bad".

You guys know that Ao3 is not a real archive right? Like they chose that word as a political statement to justify hosting unmoderated content as “archiving” works, but legally they don’t operate like one and their practices don’t follow archival sciences criteria at all.

the bimbofication of the femme identity is a real fucking problem. femmes are providers, carers, speakers, defenders, loud and proud. they are not whiny brats who need a butch to function in life. as a butch I can tell you nothing fills my chest more than a femme who takes the -

some of you need to watch the lesbian wife swap episode to visualize what this would realistically look like and why you shouldn’t treat PPL like props
I feel so guilty for wanting a butch that'll do everything for me, like hi I have nothing to offer but I'm pretty do you want to devote your entire life to serving me yes or no

realistic in that i’m aware it’s a somewhat scripted reality show but it also gets at the harm of essentially prescribing gender roles in relationships. relationships are a two way street. if you want something fulfilling you should BRING it or else resentment builds.

horrible casting aside, if this is true why aren’t we casting sapphics and lesbians in the titular roles?
Florence Pugh and Hailee Steinfeld are rumored to star as lovers in a modern remake of the iconic 1996 neo-noir thriller 'BOUND', with Lana and Lilly Wachowski rumored to return as directors! The duo is reportedly being considered for the roles of Corky and Violet in a high-stakes mob heist.

i’m not even opposed to straight ppl being gay for pay but i think considering we have so many sapphic and lesbian actors now it would be a great opportunity to cast them instead of doing whatever this fucking bullshit is.

i cannot be in a fandom that's largely dominated by white queers cause they all be acting strange as hell whenever they see black people

the way white people weaponize their queerness and neurodivergence to act like they know the full extent of oppression genuinely irritates me

someone ai generating a girl to be nikki to mock jane doe proves to me that obsession isn’t nearly as harsh about rape as it should’ve been and no amount of ppl saying “the misogyny is the point” will undo how barker’s film is now culpable in continuing rape culture.

the movie’s fans also completely sanitize the actual horror of what happens to nikki. when ppl call nikki bear’s “girlfriend” it softens the fact that what he actually did was kidnap her, hold her body hostage, and raped her.

a big reason i now despise that movie after initially enjoying it (w/ reservations) is the deranged stans that flip at any critique, esp re: misogyny. compare the gratuitous & sexualized brutality nikki and sarah suffer to ian’s blink-and-you-miss-it kill shot. it’s blatant.
The shot in Obsession of Sarah’s dead body in the house is the image that’s lingered with me from that movie the most because of how misogynistic and mean-spirited it is. Basically every time I think about that movie I like it less

Laura Bailey has been cast in ‘THE LAST OF US’ Season 3 as a leader of the Seraphites. Bailey was the actor behind Abby in the games.

Seems like it's more about what kind of social order produces personalities inclined to deputize themselves to go around "destroying" other people. "Pedo hunting" is at its core about finding entertainment value in sexual abuse, it's worth considering what attracts people to it.
I’m sure Chris Hanson is a jerk, but I feel like the discourse around this movie wants me to believe that it’s not fair to expose and humiliate and destroy child predators, and I disagree with that premise.
