In Bad Taste Supreme
18 June 2014
Since when has the term "pussy", referring to the vulva, and meaning weak, cowardly-- entered the popular ventricular? NOT !!! Nobody of any class uses the sexist term "pussy". It is cheap street lingo, tolerable when spoken by thugs in a crime flick. But to enter it in the first few lines of dialogue of a comedy by the protagonist, as if it were the way we speak, (as is becoming more and more prevalent by script writers) is reinforcing negative stereotypes about women.

This is sexism, no different or any less harmful form racism. Taking such misogynistic words for granted, and being ignorant of how they influence attitudes about women is egregious. We wonder at the violence of women so prevalent in the world today?

When has it become funny to show an animated silhouette of fellatio?

It is a mystery that Liam Neeson and Chalrize Theron did not object when they read the script and went on to appear in such a tasteless production.

And shame on Seth MacPharlane for reinforcing negative stereotypes, and for trying to pass off pornographic images as wholesome comedy.
