You've yet to discover the rule of cringe, I see.

Cringe or not depends on how seriously someone is taking something. The more seriously they take it the more cringe it becomes.

Taking something stupid deathly seriously = cringe

Doing something silly for fun with full acknowledgement it's silly and laughing at yourself = fine and cool usually

Doing something silly and super seriously trying to be funny and cool and not realizing people are laughing at you and not with you = cringe

[meadowphoenix]

I don't think it's a contradiction. You don't think songs in fic convey drama or romance but you do think they convey silliness and humor. Perfectly reasonable.

because the men who wrote the bible considered sluttiness worse than murder

[(Anonymous)]

Being a slut and a harlot is just the easiest and most convenient way for men to blacken a woman's name and reputation - and that's still true today. All the other stuff you describe has been done by men plenty of times. But calling her a painted whore is the attack that will stick. :(

[philstar22]

Basically, because she was an evil woman, of course she had to be slutty. Slutty was the evilest a woman could be, so the evilest of women had to be slutty. So men just assumed she had to be slutty even though she doesn't appear to have been, at least from the passages written about her.

Everybody always hates on the women.

[meadowphoenix]

I think your missing logical connection is that Baalism, and to some extent all paganism, was viewed as inherently licentious, partially because sex wasn't as big as deal and women has seemingly significantly more agency in it but also because women had significantly more power. To a notoriously patriarchal culture, her pushing of this licentious religion meant that she herself was licentious.

And above all else the pushing of paganism is her worst crime. All the other crimes are symptoms of her following the wrong god, so calling her licentious is indeed talking about her main fault, from which all other faults flowed. Also misogyny.

Monotheistic religions tend to have a hate-boner for women, that and a weird daddy complex.

It's like Kirk Drift, basically.

Lol, that is how I felt after I finally watched It's Always Sunny In Philadelphia.

This is like the only big fandom I'm in. I'm a queer non-binary feminist and I feel like this show is in NO way intended for me, but damn, I love it anyway. LaPusso deserves to be kicked into the sun.

You didn't ask for my opinion, but I'd say "people hating on a movie in a way that shows they've never seen it." Someone nitpicking a movie in a way that shows they've seen it a million times is annoying but more forgivable than ignorance. If you're gonna come into my house and criticize my couch, at least know what color it is.

What you say is true but it's also just a hell of a title for a mystery novel. It's a good enough title that it doesn't matter if it's the most accurate thing in the world.

I don't have the physical CD anymore, but I still listen to songs off this album all the time! It's so good (or maybe it's just because I was 12 when it came out). :D

What music did you listen to when you were 14?

Inspired by today's Secret #7.

I was really into Sugar Ray, Mindless Self Indulgence, and Sum 41. Heh.
