Ever notice how, even though lots of women dislike these things, even though to joke about them or roll their eyes or critique them, the real haters always seem to be teh mens?

I think that's bullshit. A lot of guys seem to take such massive amounts of joy in hating all over these things. I've yet to see these same guys critique or mock ANYTHING problematic that's aimed for a male audience. (Lots of gross porn out there, guys. Why don't you fuck off and talk about how wrong that is? Because you know what? It is worse. There are actual human beings in it. There, I said it. Books, no matter how gross, are at least not using real people. Look up the statistics on the average age of death for porn stars and tell me there's no difference.)

Basically I agree some things are icky and gross, but I'm really fed up with the people who get their jollies from mocking anything women like because it doesn't live up to their standards, while not applying anything like the same standards, not even a tenth of the same standards, to what's aimed at men.

And as someone who's had to listen to this sort of mockery from men just a bit too much, I'm far more likely to defend 50 Shades than anything else when people start up -- and I personally hate it. So great job, asshole dudes who want to remind us all how PR0Bl3m@t1c women's "porn" is.

What world are you living in? All the critics I've seen have been women. Feminists.

All the people I hear slagging it off in real life are men. Specifically, my friends.
