this fuckfest of a show good lord. if you said you appreciated the plot or the characters i'd really wonder about your level of taste.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
I mostly kept watching it just to figure out what the fuck was going on. I didn't, and I don't think the writers knew either.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-04 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
That's a very good reason to praise something.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 12:40 am (UTC)(link)
as someone who hates getting head, I cannot approve. Sometimes I feel pressured into pretending I like it because all woman are somehow expected to, because that's like "the time when you make the guy go down for/on you" and somehow empowering. bleh. And all this "yay finally a show where the gals get some head" kinda promotes exactly that. Fucking politics.

got no problem with your opinion on it, though.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 02:27 am (UTC)(link)
It's probably got more to do with the fact that movies where women receive oral sex get higher ratings than movies were guys receive oral sex. Or even movies with graphic rape scenes.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-06 07:42 pm (UTC)(link)
ratings as in age restrictions? you mean in your country, right? because that's sure as hell not the case in my country. and I don't really understand how that makes it any more or less praiseworthy. I go in for a lot of mature stuff, but I wouldn't go "ooh that series has so much more dismemberment than just people being shot! praise, praise!" (even though I find it pretty bigoted of media to crack down on realistic violence while allowing lots of trivialized depictions of it.)

SPOILERS I GUESS

(Anonymous) 2014-01-04 10:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Except it's usually bc the ladies are in their period and then you're like ooooooooooooh, vampires. Kinda spoiled the big twist.

Didn't our favorite gypsy werewolf also go down on his lady?

There's a surprising amount of lesbian sex scenes in this show.

It's all to be edgy tho

Re: SPOILERS I GUESS

I'm a little annoyed that they had to "justify" it in the show, but I'm still pleased that it happened.

Secret 7 - Hemlock Grove (TV series)

[personal profile] transcriptanon 2014-01-04 10:31 pm (UTC)(link)
[Picture is the title card of the TV series "Hemlock Grove". It shows a skull with wings and a crown of flowers or leaves?, all made of smoke.]

The thing I appreciate most about this show is not the plot, or the characters. It's the amount of oral the women in it receive.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Completely valid.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 12:56 am (UTC)(link)
I watched this show for the wtf factor (and I also REALLY want to know what's in those damn vials and why Olivia or whatever her name was needed them.)

There were too many subplots that were never explained/solved/went anywhere...

in short, I think your reason is pretty reasonable

Wait, WHAT!?

[personal profile] elephantinegrace 2014-01-05 01:07 am (UTC)(link)
You mean to tell me that there is a mass-marketed show airing right now that not only shows women as sex-desiring creatures, in sexual relationships, deriving pleasure from sexual actions, and in a way that doesn't reciprocate sexual pleasure.

...I think I just came from the force of my feminist arousal.

Re: Wait, WHAT!?

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Judging from the post labeled "spoilers I guess," it's reciprocated all right, and in the grossest way possible.

Re: Wait, WHAT!?

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 03:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Even without the spoiler thing mentioned, I would question the no reciprocation part (having a boyfriend who very obviously gets sexual pleasure from giving oral sex). I don't even know this show, but I like that there's a show that has women receiving oral because I feel that it's much more common than is depicted in fiction.

Re: Wait, WHAT!?

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 03:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep! And I think the 'on her period' thing only happened once. (Unless I missed something, but since the scene in question was...not subtle, I doubt it.)

Re: Wait, WHAT!?

(Anonymous) 2014-01-06 06:01 pm (UTC)(link)
Hey, lesbians get sexual pleasure from giving women oral, you know. And maybe men might do too!

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 08:51 am (UTC)(link)
Dude. I don't watch this show but there is a thought that pops up every day of my life: fiction needs to show more women receiving oral. Or better: fiction needs to show women receiving oral.

I should totally watch it.

(Anonymous) 2014-01-05 09:32 am (UTC)(link)
Ngl, this totally makes me wanna watch it. The world is totally lacking in people going down on women. And having it be good.

i don't have anything interesting to say about the secret itself but oh my god this show is a trainwreck and yet i can't stop watching.
