“He used his relationship with me as a shield … so no one would question his relationships with other women or scrutinize his writing as anything other than feminist,” she writes

Wait, WHO on Buffy did this guy nail?

Well Joss is certainly a piece of shit.

The red flag is "I just have mostly female friends cuz me mum raised me a feminist".

Whenever anyone you are with says they only have friends that are of the opposite sex you flee.

Wait, it shut down cuz he had affairs? Or is the timing just a coincidence?

I understand. No doubt JFK and MLK jr. sites are next to close.

This was a fan site where people could worship him. What a pos.

He is a piece of shit, he deserves a b*tch slap. I will still watch Buffy and Angel and any Avengers films he directs in the future though.

Just now when I see an extra in an episode I'm gonna wonder if he f*cked her.

Robtard
I'm still trying to figure out how Whedon cheating on his wife makes him not a feminist in of itself? Granted, I never knew he was this supposed uber feminist to begin with. But can someone explain?

I mean, I can sorta see the feminist impact. He did make films and a tv series centered around a teenage girl fighting vampires. Who also was 16 and sleeping with a centuries old vampire.

Er, wait...almost sounds like he is a perv hiding behind the feminist thing. I wonder if the chick who wrote Twilight ever watched Buffy?

Okay I was kidding about the slap, but yeah I think if you cheat, especially multiple times, you are a piece of shit.

So am I missing something? Why is the hearsay of one woman about her ex being treated as the gospel?

One woman, you mean his ex who left him cause he was cheating on her and admitted as much is hearsay?

Lets do this in reverse, why is his rhetoric on feminism regarded as gospel and why is he considered a feminist icon? What has he done to attain that title?

Also why did his fan site that has been up for over 10 years shut down today?

Because Joss Whedon is seen as one of those "Hollywood Liberal elites". If this had been a Conservative celeb, would have been "meh, that cheating is between him and his wife".

Its really the other way around if you think about it. And the wrap.com really isn't know as a bastion of conservatism.

Nope, cheating makes a person a piece of shit no matter who did it. You can question the validity of an ex and her claims, and that has merit as well.

I can't say I know this is true. If it is he is a piece of garbage, even if he was a card carrying conservative.

If you don't believe the claims of his ex wife, then why did people believe the woman that came out of no where in the home stretch of the election, to accuse Trump of sexually assaulting her?

It seems any woman who challenges a liberal person like this woman, or the women that accused Slick Willy of sexually abusing them, are automatically not to be believed.

Any women that accuses a person on the right is to believed right up from just by saying the words, and should be believed no matter what, regardless of the proof.

Lets move aside the partisanship for a minute..

Does it surprise anybody that "insert famous celebrity here" cheats on their spouse? Anyone?

When even Tiger Woods, who portrayed a squeeky clean image, was caught doing it, I think it's safe to say most any human being with money and/or fame is nailing as many people as they can..

A lot of presidents were. He's a piece of shit as a person for that.

But then, just like how the reason I watch Buffy or Angel has nothing to do with who the guy who created it is banging....

I can't say I've ever heard that about him ever.

Not that I've ever been interested in anything about him outside of his works.

Afaik, people like him for Buffy, one of the most successful woman driven shows of all time. With that comes hero worship.

But I don't believe he's considered a serious feminist source, any more then any hollywood celebrity is.

The show Buffy was also serious female sexploitation, which if I understand correctly, would be anti-Feminism?

Also, Buffy loved Spike. I don't care what the haters say. She did.

The "haters" would include Spike himself.

Chick began kissing Angel in the series finale. So much love for Spike she kisses her ex.

I only seriously started watching the show several months back.

Ohhhhhhh yeah, it does. Expoit.

It had a top down shot of Buffy soaking wet and moving through a water filled dungeon, for crying out loud.

Honestly, depends on the feminism.

Showing off the female body/expressing sexuality would be perfectly in line with some forms of feminist idealogy.

And I think the key here is how it handled everything else.. Intruducing one dimensional stereotypes and subverting them. Suddenly bringing in issues like homosexuality with wit and humor, in a way that doesn't trivialize/mock it and gets people thinking..

Really, there was no "power dynamic" to criticise.. No "punching down". At worst, you had some girls in skimpy outfits/compromising positions, but this was equally true of males.

Try looking up Gold Digger. The writer/creator puts his entire backlog free in pdf form.. It's the same thing. It oozes sexuality, cheesecake, beefcake (Did I mention everyone is a furry?), and people consider it one of the most feminist comic book series out there. Main character is such a sex addict, a gender swapping being who literally eats sexual energy for breakfast squirms uncomfortably when she comes knocking.

Surtur
Brb, about to watch some Buffy while wondering if he finger-banged the Buffster at any point. If only Xander knew the truth...

There's a reason they say "talk is cheap".

Men want sex, as often as they can get it and with as many women as they can get it with.. Anyone who says otherwise is probably lying to you.

Silent Master
I like how a spokesman for Joss was very careful not to state that she was lying about Joss' affairs. My guess is that it's because she actually has proof and they don't want to piss her off and cause her to release sed proof.

Sable
Good posts SM. Especially the Twitter screenshots. This guy literally thought he was Gods gift to the feminist movement. Hes nothing more then cheap talk and a loser.

Dr Will Hatch
This news didn't surprise me in the least. The subtext is all there in his work, and there were plenty of red flags throughout his career, like when he fired Charisma Carpenter during Angel for being pregnant.

Still a big fan of his work, though, and I'm disappointed that Whedonesque shut down since I read that semi-regularly.

I for one respect Joss Whedon for his work despite his terrible life decisions. Just because he did something bad doesn't mean the impact of his work should be discredited imo.

Sable
His place as a male feminist icon has been discredited. He possibly has never been on.

Was he really considered a feminist by people who weren't him?

Yes

I mean I disagree with the feminist movement, and regardless of that I still didn't let that effect the respect I afforded to Whedon for his work.

He's released a large body of work that many people perceive as being highly feminist and empowering to women. Granted, I don't actually agree with a lot of those people on a lot of his work, but that's beside the point. While I disagree with Joss Whedon's works being as feminist as they are, for those who view them as being such him being touted as a feminist icon makes sense.

That, and I also read that she hid her pregnancy from the showrunners until the last possible second. Rumours be rumours, though.

Joss Whedon is Queen Cuck!

The weasel like statement from Joss' rep makes me believe the Ex-Wife's story is probably mostly accurate.

That said, him likely being a serial cheater doesn't change the quality of his work.

Man...I REALLY don't care about this stupid Hollywood gossip.

If he makes more great stuff, and I like it, I'll buy/consomme the product, like usual.



To be fair, I didn't care with Bill Clinton had those affairs in the Oval office...

I just don't care about adults doing things with their privates with other adults. Let them squish them together. Who cares.

I just don't care about adults doing things with their privates with other adults. Let them squish them together. Who cares. Pretty much, I just found the immediate condemnation of Joss' alleged actions a little weird. I really only care if the celebrity is, idk, a monstrous child rapist like Roman Polanski. thumb up

I'll still watch Joss' work if it's good, and it's usually overall solid, if flawed.

Truth, plus I think one could argue he did do some good for women. He had a lesbian character. Okay yeah she went evil and murderous but...well, I have nothing to add to that.

TBF, Buffy wouldn't have been in those Scooby Doo movies without being hired to be Buffy by Joss. Silver lining?
