It's probably no mistake that the morally bankrupt Hollywood "artists" behind "Fifty Shades of Grey" chose Valentine's Day weekend to launch their mainstream porn flick. Not since "Brokeback Mountain" hit movie theaters has the media been so driven to find any excuse possible to discuss a movie it clearly wants the American public to consume. At least in the case of "Brokeback", there was arguably a redeeming human rights quality to the movie. What's the agenda with "Fifty Shades"? Take that, bitch! Or perhaps assure us that billionaire financier Jeffrey Epstein wasn't really such a creepy guy for making underage girls sex slaves for him and his wealthy and powerful friends?
No matter how you cut or slice "Fifty Shades," it's nothing but pure porn degrading to women, which makes any discerning movie-goer wonder just why our local Gannett-owned newspaper found multiple excuses over the past several days, weeks and months to tout a movie with an "R" rating "for strong sexual content, including dialogue, some unusual behavior, and for graphic nudity and language."
Fellow blogger Debbie Schussel went to an early screening of the movie where she found the theater filled with "middle-aged fat chicks" who "like sex slavery and torure even more than ISIS does"--the apparent demo group that made writer E.L. James' series of sex novels best sellers. Schlussel says the most memorable line in the movie was when the character of the lead actress in the movie, Dakota Johnson (daughter of Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith) asks, "Um, What's a butt plug?"
Schlussel wonders when the next NFL player busted for domestic violence will use the "Fifty Shades of Grey" defense: "'She asked for it' now has a new meaning because now, in many cases, specifically because this book glamorized it, she did ask for it. Hey, if I were Ray Rice, I’d use that defense and ask my employer why they promote this stuff and yet tell me I’m bad for doing a lot less." I think Debbie best sums it up when she says, "Welcome to American culture in Kartrashian Age." Schlussel gives the movie four Marxes, plus four Betty Friedans plus four ISIS beheadings. LOL

next thing you know some blogger will try to get some PR out of it...
Hollywood always partots the "There's No Excuse for Domestic Violence" line but makes $$$ off the same. Great case of Do-as-I-Say-But-Not-as-I-Do.
Have you ever spanked a woman's naked bottom? In my experience, every woman likes it, and it turns every woman on.
They'll let you know if you're doing it too hard. You don't want to lose the mood, but if you're doing it too softly, they can't get into the moment, and they think you're a bit of a wimp.
Many women also like being handcuffed to the headboard while blindfolded. You surprise them with what you're going to do next. Massaging, kissing, spanking, mix it up. Lots of "in control" women just want to let go for a while.
Tip: Find a way to pad the handcuffs. Women hate feeling cold, in any way, and cold metal handcuffs might ruin the mood.
You like it; she likes it. There's lots of rubbing, kissing and intimacy. What's the problem?
Even middle-aged, so-called "fat chicks" need love, too. Why are they at the movie? Because they want their husbands to spend some time with them in deep intimacy, yes, even taking off his belt and giving them a few strokes for "being a bad girl."
Sorry, but this is just the way human nature is.
If you're a middle-aged woman who has a husband who won't give her a little intimacy with a bit of a sting, drop a line below.
As a guy, never read the books. I did read a small passage at a bookstore and it was graphic enough. I remember Rush Limbaugh saying some feminist were upset because young women (late teens, early 20s) were reading it and they felt it took away from the women have control of sex worldview some want to push. I'm not sure what exactly the future holds in terms of sex for people young and old in this country. While surveys from college students show the vast majority want traditional dating relationships, mass media and certain progressives push the hookup, casual sex culture hard.
I guess in the future we will have hookup marriages, spouses with benefits. Oh, and lets not forget that if gay marriage is morally acceptable now, how can we ban plural marriage?
"if gay marriage is morally acceptable now, how can we ban plural marriage?"
The gay marriage folks are having a hard time keeping that cat in the bag.
If marriage is all about love and consent, and if the requirement to have one man and one woman is arbitrary, how is a limit of two not even more arbitrary?
Plural marriage has a good argument under existing law. If marriage is all about a good home in which to raise children, having two wives seems to accomplish that goal better than one wife.
Having two wives accomplishes the goals of more children and more caring.
I'm a woman who has spent literally 1000's of hours in a dungeon conducting scenes.
I saw the film on Thursday and did not feel it was immoral or degrading to women.
On the other hand, when the city of Indianapolis sent an undercover vice cop into my place of business to repeatedly sexually harass me?
THAT was immoral and degrading to me.
BDSM and my years as a dominatrix sexually liberated me and it also helped me to reconcile very nasty wounds from a childhood of abuse.
Judge not lest ye be judged.
I think the film is incredibly important culturally.
Melyssa,
Thanks for posting. I can see why women like to be spanked, lightly whipped, and a few other things, but I simply don't understand why any guy would want to be on the receiving end.
It seems like a huge turn-off for me. I can't respect any guy who does stuff like lick his mistresses' shoe, say "Yes, Mistress," and other subservient and humiliating acts that you and I know occur.
