Many women find it offensive when men discuss them with sexual connotations so I am not sure why they think it is fine or appropriate to discuss men in the same way.

 

Not a fan of this kind of conversation.

I shy away from Tarantino films.  I'm not much for violence.

 

Although I was hooked on "Breaking Bad".  Not Tarantino, but it was pretty darned violent.  But I also laughed out loud at some of it and Tarantino has never made me laugh, only wince and turn away.

 

 


@QueenDanceALot, "Breaking Bad" was a masterpiece of its kind. It had everything going for it. It's still my No 1 pick on Netflix, but I also adored "Weeds."

@FancyPhillyshopper  Agreed.  And who would be the first to be offended if spoken of by men in the same way?

 

This is the double standard on which the me too movement was born.

 

And it just sounds...desperate.

The Me Too movement, with variations of related local or international names, is a movement against sexual harassment and sexual abuse where people publicize their allegations of sex crimes committed by powerful and/or prominent men. Wikipedia

 

It's odd to compare discussing how sexy someone is with harassing or abusing a person.

If admiring the adult human form, respectfully and without coercion, were the same as harrassment, almost everyone would be in jail.
