Does it have to be a movie? I was thinking “sitcom.”
Geez give the guy a break, he’s just talking about something he likes. It’s not like he’s flogging anything.
That’s because they’re stumped.
Wow. I didn’t think the Dope would be a place where someone would be pitted due to their sexual choices.
Pit fail.
You don’t remember Cesario?
After searching, that was before I joined.
I will edit my comment to say, I didn’t think the Dope would be a place where someone would be pitted due to their legal sexual choices.
I don’t like rape, pedophilia, etc. Sex between two consenting adults though . . . to each their own.
I have a sneaking suspicion that the majority of EC’s real-life sexual encounters involve fewer than two people.
All right, all right, there’s no need to hammer it home . . .
In the past there were times when Evil Captor IMHO gratuitously brought up BDSM in threads where it wasn’t relevant, but I don’t see a problem with him starting a Cafe Society thread about a current, mainstream Hollywood movie that deals with BDSM.
Evil Captor’s 50 Shades thread does bother me for another reason though: it seems to be based on a total strawman. He claims that “all the pretentious movie critics” had it in for this movie and expected or even wanted it to fail, but ignored my request for the names of some of these critics. All the reviews I’ve seen of 50 Shades have been mixed, with the critics saying it’s at least somewhat entertaining even if it isn’t very good, and I didn’t see any critics predicting that it would flop. Later in the thread Evil Captor says that he himself expected the movie to be bad and won’t be going to see it, but is somehow still angry that unnamed critics supposedly thought that it would be bad and that people wouldn’t go to see it.
Yes, yes, so do Hugh Hefner’s or Mick Jagger’s.
“Everybody Humps Stumpy!”
I’m just amazed that someone clicked on a thread about a movie that’s about BDSM so that they could be creeped out by it. Are you the person who called to complain about the kids whistling songs with obscene lyrics?
No, I was the guy who shot them. Calling the cops is for wusses.
He’s a chainged man.
Seeing movies about horrible things in order to be creeped out by them has kept Hollywood going for 100 years.
FTR, I’m not actually grossed out by BDSM or the people who are into it. However, I feel free to giggle behind their backs. I just have traumatic memories of EC going on and on about it, fitting it into every thread. I clicked on that thread because I’m interested, from a cultural anthropology* point of view, in the people who like that particular awful (from a standpoint of literature) book, and those who would publicly line up to see the movie, flaunting their kinkiness while receiving affirmation from hundreds of like-minded women and their embarrassed mates who just want to get laid. However, seeing his name I suffered a flashback and snapped, creating this thread.

- My Cultural Anthro prof wrote a book called Group Sex: An Eyewitness Report on the American Way of Swinging. Intensely boring and full of people you’d rather not see naked. I took enough classes to almost have a minor in Human Sexuality, then decided I preferred my people long dead and shifted into Archaeology.

“Signs point to ass-covering.”
Okay, you got me. Not grossed out by BDSM, just by the people who are very much into it.
It’s okay to be grossed out by a particular sex act. You can no more help that than being TURNED ON by a particular sex act.
Why do you hate Eric Clapton?
I still haven’t seen any admission from you that you were wrong to create this thread. Which you were.
