Rape. No Laughing Matter.

We've already covered how the internet isn't exactly female friendly. But this piece in Wired seems to actually say that the rape scene in the movie Observe and Report isn't in fact, rape, but something else - a "shocking sex scene." Oh and then it goes on to make fun of Feministing for giving a shit.

Classy.

Check out what Feministing editor, Jessica Valenti, says in response to this offensive behavior:

Hey Wired: Rape isn't "shocking sex"

You know, I knew that Courtney's Friday Feminist Fuck You would draw out the assholes and rape apologists. But this just pisses me off to no end.

Wired has a post on us "furious feminists" and Courtney's video, writing that we have a problem with Observe and Report's "shocking sex scene." Shocking sex scene? No, assholes - that's called rape. It's unbelievable to me that people are arguing whether or not this scene depicts a rape, not only because of the obvious inability for Anna Faris' character to give consent - but also because Faris herself calls it rape.

So please, you fucking idiots, stop calling it sex.

It's also worth pointing out that the comments at Wired (and hundreds at the YouTube video that I moderated) trying to argue that the scene isn't rape are of the "no one would want to rape you anyway you stupid cunt" variety. So yeah. I swear, it's stuff like this that makes me want to give up on humanity.

Please give Wired a piece of your mind. After all, they asked for it:

Have you seen Observe and Report? Let us know your reaction to the movie that's splitting critics into two distinct camps: Those who denounce it as "bitter, ugly and painful to watch" and those who call it "fucking amazing." (For the record, I'm in the second camp.)
