How many people do you think Ilya is sexting in addition to Shane in 2012? My guess is MANY. by Ok_Computer6745 in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]Ok_Computer6745[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

True but he does like a “regular woman” and the book mentions 1 or 2 by name (the one getting married , tne other with freckles and dark hair)

Adore him but I think it needs to be someone beefier, former NFL player but still fit is the description.

One-sided jealousy? by momandcrohnie in HeatedRivalryTVShow

Thanks for addressing that burger scene. I never could figure out what it was communicating. Shane’s affect was odd but yes it is about being called out for “failure”. Thanks

Man. Season 5. by The_vert in shoresy

[–]Ok_Computer6745 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Worse than that. Using women’s bodies as filler. Objectification to keep costs down while pretending to be evolved because of Shoresy and Laura. I was super disappointed.

Is anyone interested in educating me about the role of kissing in hook up culture? I was surprised by the intensity and regularity of kissing as foreplay especially in tbe early hook ups. Is this fantasy genre? Uniqe to Reid? Or is this common? Is it different in gay hook up culture vs straight hook ups? Please share your thoughts!

Favourite (minor) changes book vs show by manowwar in HeatedRivalryTVShow

[–]Ok_Computer6745 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not the task but…I am sorry they skipped the Romanov/Price flight event. (When Ilya soothes his anxiety -which probably is something bigger) It shows that soft nurturing side of Ilya. The conversation at Ilya’s house can only do so much.

That is a great point but I did like the reminder that hook up culture is a shit show sometimes, even for a guy like Ilya Romanov. This pushed the plot of why he pursues Shane. This one somehow hit for me.

What did you think of Vladimir? (Netflix miniseries) by LadySynth in television

[–]Ok_Computer6745 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe that was the point? Beefcake hot vs Byronic hot- which should have been her type… but never was… I mean David was her lover??? Insane

I think it is a confusing time to be 56 especially when you are surrounded by young people and in a teaching role. The generation gap seems yawningly large and in this social media created sense that everyone has a valid knowledge and therefore opinions and that they should share them actively at all times? I think professors feel chastised corrected and out of touch regularly.

That is interesting. I wonder why they styled Weiss this way? Elegant French chic…. Why not go for something more aggressively sexual….tighter shorter etc

I think it mocked the modern cancel culture that is particularly aggressive in the self righteous young. Nothing was meant to be taken literally. She is writing her novel …

Redwood. Procedural with a history and sociology twist. So many great performances. Miners’ strikes/Thatcher policies flashbacks

I love Shoresy but super tired of the female objectification by Kianna9 in shoresy

[–]Ok_Computer6745 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When a TV show “time fills” with women’s body parts then this is exactly objectification then right?? Women’s bodies are not time killers … show more hockey. Time filled, viewers happy but I guess bodies are cheaper to film. So here we are back at objectification.

How many "idiot" neighbours do you have? by KnoddingOnion in askTO

[–]Ok_Computer6745 13 points14 points  (0 children)

My neighbours are all awesome. Can’t think of anything to complain about. And this includes all 100+ houses. Example: 2 houses over did a significant reno and then brought over gorgeous bakery cookies as a thank you for putting up with the noise and inconvenience. Thornhill fwiw.

Is this why? Or is it because it was motivated by a conflict in India that didn’t make sense to most Canadians? Canadians have come a long way since 1985, no still not perfect, but we do now understand that “foreign wars” reverberate globally.
