When is R-A-P-E Hot?

]]> rape-victim.jpgWell according to the new Gossip Girl television show the producers as the view, which happens to be teenagers, to believe that rape IS sexy. Producers of the ultra-glamorous and oh-so-risque hot new show use intentional edits to try to blur the distinction between getting raped and consenting to sex. They glamorized rape, not once but twice, in Sunday night’s episode.

The rapist is depicted as a sexy bad boy and of course he gets away with it. Why wouldn’t he? Gee, I wonder why boys think it’s okay to rape girls? I wonder why girls think they can’t stop boys from touching them without permission?

 I’m disgusted by it obviously, and you can read more about why at So Sioux Me. Later this afternoon I’m sending my column to advertisers too, asking them to withdraw funding from this kind of glamorization of violence against girls that serves only the perv, molester and rapist members of society.  Way to be the “new CW” you misogynistic sickos.

This is not on HBO this is on at 8 p.m. on a mainstream television station being directly marketed to teenagers. What the hell?
