Yeah, I have friends who like 50 Shades and they're the stereotypical audience for it, fans who stay in the mainstream as far as media goes and aren't aware of the feminist discourse about it. They know it's not supposed to be emulated in real life dating. "50 Shades of Fucked Up" is a fan nickname for it within the fan community. If someone says "I wish I had a guy like Christian Grey!" it's like saying "I wish I were a Jedi!" Like if they seriously had the chance to get either of those wishes at the expense of the life they had, they wouldn't take it. It's just a hyperbolic way of saying they like the fantasy of themselves living that life.

Exactly! But it seems women always want to believe the worst of each other.
