I think. I think this can be classed as "relevant to your interests". And if it's not, well, it should be. Trigger warning for slut-shaming.

Observe the beautifully worded and well thought out views of James Gunn, the director-to-be on Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy (yes, written

Glad people are posting this. What a vile human being. I just got finished watching a movie on sex trafficking of girls, so I'm particularly anti-men right now. And this didn't help. I would really, really like to punch this guy.

*Hugs tightly* I am so sorry.

And yeah, I know. :/ It's just...it's like a laundry list of despicable. Seriously.

I read that original article- what a total slime.

[ladyhadhafang]

I know. I definitely know that I barely got through the first three items of the article before getting Squicked and deciding to hit the back button. "Slime" is definitely an understatement, IMHO.

He sounds so self pleased, like he thinks he's being funny, but he isn't even vaguely funny, just disgusting.

Grievous sums it up (icon)

Don't worry, Grievous. Rose isn't happy either.

[ladyhadhafang]

Appropriate Grievous icon is appropriate. I can't imagine him condoning that sort of treatment of women.

And yeah. I think it was stuff like slutshaming Black Widow, Tigra and Stephanie Brown that made me angry. Hey, James the Jackass (sorry, childish, I know) -- single mother doesn't equal slut! * That and saying he would do...that to Kitty Pryde. It doesn't help that I always kind of saw Kitty -- from what I heard -- as sort of The Cutie, so I was like, "This is wrong." And even if that's not the case -- well, treating women like sex objects = still wrong. Not condemning sex at all, just treating women like sex objects.

* Doesn't help that that already really pisses me off. Just the lack of compassion shown towards single moms and pregnant teens because, "Oh ho; she doesn't have a husband; she must be a two-dollar whore!" Which is completely wrong. They deserve compassion, not condemnation. Unfortunately...it's like society in general doesn't seem to realize it.

Okay, that was... really amazingly gross.

Signed.

[ladyhadhafang]

Right?! Seriously!

[romani_blood]

So fucked up. :(

[ladyhadhafang]

I know. *Hugs*

[romani_blood]

People like that are disgusting. :(

[ladyhadhafang]

They are. They really are. :(
