Second 'sex' scene'
3x05: The First Time

Make of this scene whatever you will but the fact of the matter is that the way it was written makes it nothing more than pity sex. - I am SO glad that someone other than me realised that their sex was pity sex. Someone else said to me "well, Kurt and Blaine was make up sex", to which I had to respond "make up sex is SO much better than PITY sex". Yes, I am a bitch, no, I do not care.

Not only is Finn being a complete dunce by saying he has no future- remember when Burt offered you a full time job in the place you love to work, Finn? And he said was going to turn it over to you one day? No. Okay then. - Also this. ♥

Not only is the heat of the fireplace going to cause issues as the body heats up during sexual intercourse to begin with but talk about rug burns? Her butt will undoubtedly be sore from that. Furthermore losing your virginity isn’t a comfortable experience for a girl to begin with so chalk that up as a very unpleasant and short experience as we know through canon Finn can barely make out without having a spontaneous orgasm. - I snorted. Haha, Finn's spontaneous orgasms make me laugh. XD

(I think I'm just going to quote back your entire entry to you here...)

I’m going to forget my annoyance for a moment that the fact that Rachel is Jewish hasn’t been addressed at all in the episode, nor is the fact that a year prior she admitted she doesn’t put much stock in Christmas gifts. But we start out their fail times in the episode by her handing him a list of things she wants for Christmas. He can pick five of them, ladies and gentleman. Not one but give. And they are all quite pricey. So considerate of her. - THIS!! She was so utterly selfish and pathetic in this episode. These are the times when I really, really dislike Rachel.

Agreed on 2x10 as well - another selfish Rachel moment.

Now, anyone who knows anything about ‘romantic scenes’ knows what that symbolizes- fireworks symbolize love, true affection. Now, does this mean I am waving a Fuinn flag in the air and doing a happy dance? Not really. It’s just a simple fact that he sees nothing when he kisses Rachel. He sees fireworks with Quinn. I’m sorry, ladies and gents, but the truth is that if he doesn’t see anything when kissing Rachel it’s hard to argue that his love for Rachel is stronger than whatever love he has ever felt for Quinn- and I’m sorry, Finchel lovers, but the truth is that he did love Quinn at one point. - ily.

AGREED ON THE GARAGE SCENE DURING I AM UNICORN AS WELL. Ahem.

Now, I would have added a screen cap of when Finn apologized to Rachel but…image cannot be found. - True that.

He kissed her while still with Quinn, called her crazy, objectified her body in a negative way (“She kind of freaks me out in a Swim Fan kind of way, but she can really sing, and her body is smoking, if you’re not a fan of boobs.”), chose football over her and the glee club, called her a sad clown hooker, ditched her for the club photo just so he wouldn’t hurt his popularity, he has to pretend to listen to her, dumped her to date two girls at once, told her that there was other great things about her besides her voice and couldn’t name one, called her controlling and annoying in the interview with Jacob Ben Israel, laughed when Santana insulted the way she dressed, tried to control what she wore to school, prayed to a grilled cheese sandwich to be able to touch her breasts while the man he said was the closest thing to a father he ever had was possibly dying, called her a prude, left her alone in a tree lot with no ride home, told her he felt nothing while kissing her, said the reason he never got to second base with her was because she had never had a drink, called her a needy drunk, got into a fight with her date at prom and generally disregarded her feelings multiple times. When did he apologize for any of that? Oh, right, that was never.

Can I say how much you're in my brain right now? I have pretty much never shipped Finchel for ALL of these reasons. They're, to me, wrong on so many levels. They're kind of destructive together and when they're not.
They don't set a very good moral standard for relationships at all but that aside I agree with this post completely.

PS - the rest of my comment got cut off due to character limit. >.<

Lovely pic choices as well as scene choices!

Haha. Thanks.

Admittedly, most of my friends ship Finchel but I just can't. I find them a horrible example of a 'endgame/good couple' on a television show. If people want to ship them that's fine but I don't and I never will.

You're welcome.

Oh, agreed so much. A lot of my friends do as well but I never saw the appeal, not when they're so destructive towards each other in and out of the relationship.

Thanks for making my night! ♥

I've seen the argument that they're just teenagers, which, okay... there's actually a fair amount of ridiculousness that I've forgiven this show because the characters are teenagers (not you, Will Schuester) but what bothers me about Finchel is the same thing that made me quit watching Veronica Mars in season three - they NEVER grow or change or learn from their mistakes. And what frustrates me even more is that the writers are obviously capable of writing good character arcs (hello Puck and Santana).

I'm also with you on the pity sex thing, that was a huge alarm going off in my head once it had clicked and none of my friends agreed with me (there's an IM conversation somewhere where I was ranting about it).

Their relationship (especially during the breakup in season 2) reminds me of one of my friend's relationship's when she and her ex-boyfriend were on-again-off-again and she didn't understand why he kept breaking up with her

That was a massive 'noooooo' moment for me. I was pretty shocked about it that Rachel would let her first time with Finn be pity sex. He was no angel, either, of course. It still makes me shudder.

That made me go from "Gurl what are you doing?" to my headcanon of "aww look at them cuddling!" It was just n an awkward place for it to happen.

Pretty much!! I can think of so many other places, ways, etc for that entire scene to have happened better.

A bed would have been a nice start.
