they're lesbians!!! so why is it that............... ...............

all of them wasnt excited maybe just the paula jai parker character and another woman and some were bi or at one point was with a man , i think spike and the writer were showing that even though a lot of woman claim to be lesbians sometimes that is not the case ,they are even angry at men(due to bad relationships with men) ,curious or just plain bi-sexual,think that having different types of women made sense to me, the movie wasnt one of his best but i get the point, and also in fairness im not a lesbian ,so i may be completely off! coming from a male point of view

The reality is this movie was written by two men. I personally enjoyed it to some extent, but was frustrated at the same time. I feel it is hard for men to really believe that women could find no attraction what so ever to the "Prized Possesion". There were mixed emotions shown during the revealing of his penis, but all in all, it was a man's perspective on a hypothetical situation. (But I am not a lesbian so this is just my interpretation)

I really wish that the content of the movie had been better promoted. I was not interested in seeing a flick about a man getting paid to fetilize a bunch of lesbian's eggs. But the underlying plot was well worth the watching.

My bigger problem was in the end with the final outcome of the relationship between Jack, Fatima and Alex. THIS SCREAMS THAT A MAN WROTE THIS MOVIE.

I understand what you're saying poet. But even if you're exclusively dating women it doesn't mean you don't see beauty anywhere else. And take the fact this script was written by men into consideration.

I'm a lesbian and I was a little offended by this movie, not to a grave extent becauase it's just a movie. But what I found the worst display of male pride ever is the fact that the women had sex to get pregnant, no REAL lesbian would do that, if they did then...I doubt they'd enjoy it, otherwise there would be no point in lesbianism. The other crucial factor in me taking offence was that ALL the women got pregnant, apart from the one who wouldn't have sex with him. It's just small minded men trying to make themselves feel better. Decent enough movie though, the ending was somewhat pathetic.

I had to watch this movie a couple of times to actually get the point that Spike was trying to make. I think I figured it out. Whenever there is money involved, lies and sex are soon to follow. I listened to Spike's commentary and the scene where Jack is standing up naked and having the lesbians basically say they'll pay for his sperm, was based upon how slaves were sold back during slavery. After listening to Spike's commentary and then watching the movie again, I got a better understanding of what was really going on throughout that scene and the movie(as I stated before). I don't think the women were sexually aroused by Jack's penis, but it was the thought that the women wanted to have a baby. Several of the women even mentioned how they didn't want to take any chances with fertility and with them being lesbians, it was going to be harder for them to adopt so basically sleeping with Jack was the last option or hope for them to have a child.

hmmmm... i wonder what Spike Lee was thinking about when he embarked on this film.there just seems to be too many stuff going underneath which makes you wonder what the whole movie was all about. on one hand u have this Frank willis/watergate/whistle blowing issue, on another u have the lesbian issue and on yet another u have the usual 'black thing' (case in ref. the gangsta conversation btwn the Italian mob guy and the lead xter). and am sure there just so many stuff bubbling in the unercurrent.

i really do think the movie premise of 18(i repeat 18) lesbians wanting to have babies thru sex with a man is just stretching reality too far. i mean this women became lesbians bcos they dont like dick. so why would they want to have babies that way (and enjoying it alot too) and of cos the only one that didnt want to sleep with our guy couldnt get pregnant until she jumped into the sack with the guy. come on spikey what r u on nowadays. also i really dont see the point with the Q-Tip xter though i do enjoy the scene where he talked about how much price a celeb semen will fetch. but he has too few scenes to make any reasonable impact as a close confidant.

am a black male and i have lived in a shared house with a white lesbian couple in England and it did alot to enlighten me about the nature of their relationship (i think). one of these ladies is bi and we have actually fooled around on one or two occasions, the other is completely gay and though am actually closer to her than her partner she does not find me sexually attractive at all and once told me that the thought of having sex with a man is so repulsive to her yet we r very good friends (unfortunately I am so so sexually attracted to her).

I think it's nice for spike to try to tackle this subject but he really stretched things way too far. Having a relationship with a lesbian couple ( a hot hot couple for that matter) has to be very near the top of most straight men desire list but i honest doubt if that kind of relationship can exist. having said all this rubbish, i think there were some good shots in the movie like when the doctor guy jumped out of the window and killed like 3 other pple by his sucide attempt. it just goes to show that if Spike can get his act together there's still alot of good movies for him to churn out yet.

you're right, he should have consulted a lesbian expert like you before he made this movie.

You are right on all accounts. This movie is nothing but an ignorant, sexistic and highly male indulgent piece of *beep* And I'm male, so when it's this obvious even to me...phew.

When I'm reading the other posts in this thread, I see a lot of rationalization. People are making excuses for Spike Lee's inane filmmaking. "Oh, she/they are probably bi", "Just because they're lesbians doesn't mean they can't appreciate a nice cock once in a while", "All lesbians are in reality cock-craving sluts who just haven't met the right man yet", "Please don't dislike any of Spike Lee's movies, because he's black and once, black people were slaves". *beep* Be quiet.

This movie sucks, just admit it.
