Imagine if the Sexes Were Reversed

'Jennifer Lawrence tries to revive the raunchy, R-rated comedy in NoHardFeelings, in which her character tries to sleep with an "un-f*ckable" 19-year-old.'

Some people have posed my question on social media, and they've been subjected to abuse and snark.

Welcome to the 2020s, where it's seen as *righteous* for thirtysomething + women to exploit and abuse teenage boys/men.

Welcome to the 2020s, where we no longer talk about *equality* and *fairness*, but are all about 'evening the score' by targeting innocent and young men, to 'make up for centuries of male violence.'

Welcome to the 2020s, where we're no longer interested in *equality*. We're only interested in *supremacy* and ignoring double-standards.

Fuck this era. Fuck this world. 😠

If the genders were reversed you'd be angry at the mace scene. About how the guy is a dumb stud that can do what he wants and is popular while the "unfuckable" chick is smarter and superior to him. And how she's ungrateful and demeaning to his offer to sleep with him, no strings.

They made movies where it was reversed, ever heard of She's All That?

Same idea but in She's All That , a older guy , Freddie Prinze Jr., seduces a younger girl, Rachel Leigh Cook.
Everyone's okay with that, and okay with congressman hiring underage prostitutes, and Andrew Tate trafficking girls who are 10+ years younger than him for sex, but an older young adult woman seducing a young adult male in a film is grooming? Give me a break.

This is another concocted controversy by the right, just like how they cry about 'wokeism' all the time. They will argue for men to have a right to be with as young women as they want, then complain about this Jennifer Lawrence movie. It's a joke.
