(57,808 posts)who is as bad as a Tea Bagger. My point stands. He used terms to shame her because she doesn't revere some crap film he can't distinguish from someone's private sex life. It's shaming a woman for her sexuality based on her audacity of speaking in public. Her sexuality must be attacked whereas a movie is sacrosanct. That reveals that he does not in fact what consenting adults do is their business, not if one of those adults is a woman who dares to disagree with people that think movies should not be commented on.
Calling a woman sex negative or a prude is part of the same process as "slut shaming." Daring to disagree, speaking in public in anyway, renders a woman sexually deficient. I have been called both by the same people because there is no point at which a woman is not defective if she dares to articulate an opinion that does not affirm a man's exclusive rights to control public discourse and now even popular culture.
From what I have heard, people in the BDSM community think the novel is complete crap. People who are literate think the novel is complete crap. Yet for some reason a film based on that crap novel has rights that trump those of women on this site to give an opinion. Naturally commerce and profit trump women's rights. What else is new? Hobby Lobby, Hollywood, corporate media--all are more important that women's right to free speech or their rights to their own sexuality without shame.
