Joss Whedon promotes Rape?
My lj friend chicadilly posted this and I thought I'd share it with ya'll...
A Rapist's View of the World: Joss Whedon and Firefly
Personally, I think the woman is so far off base she's on planet neptune...a lot of her arguments are based on presumptions, such as, that woman who prostitute themselves are not doing so by choice or that anyone who has sex with a prostitute is a rapist. It is really interesting to see how a person can be so off in understanding the Firefly universe.
Especially since Joss sort of prides himself on making women the heros of his storyline.
