My friendslist: a metanarrative
Oct. 11th, 2009 12:26 pmI have no intention of watching Dollhouse, ever. I do, however, find it hilarious that my friends' reactions to the most recent episode fall into two overlapping categories:
1: Dear Joss Whedon, why are you objectifying women? Sincerely, feminists who used to approve of you.
2: Dear Joss Whedon, I see what you did there with the Wife of Bath. Sincerely, amused medievalists.
In the part of the Venn diagram where the two circles meet, we get posts on the order of
3: Dear Joss Whedon, you do not understand the Wife of Bath. Sincerely, medievalists who do gender studies.
I feel that the existence of all three of these types of posts demonstrates that I obviously have the right friendslist.
