Dear Readers,


I now consider this blog to be my Juvenelia. Have fun perusing the archives, and find me at my new haunt, here.

Judd Apatow; The Sexist Emperor Has No Clothes

Fellow-ette and her fellow, via gmail chat,respond to this horrendous "conversation" between Judd Apatow and his doormat wife Leslie Mann.

It would be hard to argue for JA not being a misogynisty doofus at this point, no? If you need more convincing, see my former posts on the subject. (And Katherine Heigl agrees, natch).
Anyway, this is a conversation that reveals how men and women can converse in non hierarchical-stereotypical-social-roles-prescribed-ways. Who'd a thunk it?


Fellow-ette:
that apatow/mann article was sick
ugh
Her Fellow: right?
horrible
F-ette "look at us playing our gender roles!"
Fellow portrait of an abusive marriage
F-ette sad
yep
Fellow yeah but i really felt bad for her
she wasn't even being that shrewish
F-ette: i know me too
he came across like a huge arsehole
Fellow you could tell he tried to force her into that role
1:36 PM
"it'll be great - you nag me, and i'll say funny things!"
F-ette: like he thinks it's all so funny
Fellow yeah
such a prick
F-ette: yeah
but she doesnt
Fellow nope
F-ette she wants to KILL him secretly
Fellow: clearly
F-ette: hahaha
Fellow also she is right about all of those things
those are sheisty presents!
F-ette: YES!
YES!
Fellow they all involve him controlling her
F-ette: its so obnoxious to get her a trip to italy
yeah
Fellow "GO TO ITALY AT THIS TIME"
1:37 PM F-ette: they should be deciding together!
Fellow without even talking to her about when/where she wants to travel!?
yeah!
F-ette we agree!
Fellow he clearly sees her as property
haha true
F-ette yeah
we are the same
Fellow F*CK THE PATRIARCHY.

finis.
