179. IT'S NOT THE SEX!!!!

Sat Jul 26, 2014, 02:45 PM

Jul 2014

It's the dumb ass storyline, the controlling leading man, him ripping her tampon out was gross as hell and not really how things go down IRL. I have personally seen it all. I've watched actual porn be produced. Gross. Smelly. Painful for the women. Bossy controlling sexist pigs in the background degrading the female.

This book felt degrading as i was reading a bit of it. Twilight fanfiction with a much weaker female lead, a controlling dude that gets off on questionable acts with this virginal ingenue. As i was reading it i keep saying,"Girl, he's a creepy stalker type! Run!!" Been there done that. He also likes spying on her. Creeptown. And guess what? If somebody puts their creepfactory sex acts up on the silver screen, it becomes my business instantly. All sex between consenting adults is NOT okay. Incest is not cool. Even consensual. I'm also not into cheating, not okay even if consensual, if the spouse is in the dark.

If the author hadn't put her fan-fiction up for sale, we wouldn't care. But here we are. It's out in the media. I do not want my daughters seeing this one day and thinking that this is what sex is supposed to be like.
