Feminist Icon Joss Whedons ExWife Accuses Director of Adultery and Hypocrisy
“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

There were times in our relationship that I was uncomfortable with the attention Joss paid other women. He always had a lot of female friends, but he told me it was because his mother raised him as a feminist, so he just liked women better. He said he admired and respected females, he didnt lust after them. I believed him and trusted him. On the set of Buffy, Joss decided to have his first secret affair.
"Fifteen years later, when he was done with our marriage and finally ready to tell the truth, he wrote me, When I was running Buffy, I was surrounded by beautiful, needy, aggressive young women. It felt like I had a disease, like something from a Greek myth. Suddenly I am a powerful producer and the world is laid out at my feet and I cant touch it. But he did touch it. He said he understood, I would have to lie or conceal some part of the truth for the rest of my life, but he did it anyway, hoping that first affair, would be ENOUGH, that THEN we could move on and outlast it.
Joss admitted that for the next decade and a half, he hid multiple affairs and a number of inappropriate emotional ones that he had with his actresses, co-workers, fans and friends, while he stayed married to me. He wrote me a letter when our marriage was falling apart, but I still didnt know the whole truth, and said, Ive never loved anyone or wanted to be with anyone in any real or long-term way except for you ever. And I love our life. I love how you are, how we are, who you are and what weve done both separately and together, how much fun we have He wanted it all; he didnt want to choose, so he accepted the duality as a part of his life."
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.

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.

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.

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".
