: Joss Whedon and a rant about Firefly
Once upon a time, in a land far, far away, there was a LiveJournal user called _allecto_ who hated Joss Whedon and his so called feminist reputation, and was determined to expose him for what he was.
To that end, she posted a rant on her LiveJournal which, to be quite frank, has to be read to be believed.
Here.
Highlights:
Zoe calls Mal 'sir' (thereby proving that Joss hates women).
Mal threatens to duct-tape Kaylee's mouth and lock her in the hold (thereby proving that _allecto_ would not recognise humour if it bit her on the butt while wearing a Groucho Marx disguise...oh, and Joss hates women).
The best bit?
On the strength of Joss' work on Firefly and interviews she has seen, _allecto_ alleges that:
I feel awful for Joss Whedon's wife. From what I've read about him and the interviews I've watched, I'm fairly certain that he rapes his wife and abuses her in various other ways.
Because _allecto_ appears to be screening comments (can't imagine why) or deleting any she doesn't like (ditto), disagreeing comments can be found in another LJ:
here.
