Very despicable female lead


I am a female and I couldn't stand the female lead in this. She was acting like she was entitled to have sex with a random guy she hardly knows , not be safe about it, and then on top of all that, be rude with him when he asks questions the next morning and lie to him.

That whole morning after sequence where they are having a back and forth about her "Catholic beliefs" and whether or not to take the pillow, was very neauseating for me. She kept fussing at him like a psychopath for asking her questions he was fully entitled to ask, ...She kept lying to him, back to back, and after acknowledging that she lied to him, she STILL made herself the victim, bringing up her relationship history and then yelling about how "you are making me such an emotional woman right now....I don't know if I am ovulating or not"....well then stop lying to him, sweetie. And next time use protection.

Plus when she was yelling, she looked like a 45 year old witch. Either that or a dog like cartoon character. It was a bad choice on the writer's part to let her get him at the end. She didn't deserve him. A normal guy would run far away after seeing her swallow the second pill.

Oh and I almost forgot....just because a man sleeps with you one night, that doesn't make you girlfriend and boyfriend. That later scene where she was demanding he break up with his serious girlfriend of two years was sickening. Don't sleep with a man the first night you meet him. If you do it is YOUR fault for getting emotionally attached the next day if he doesn't feel the same.

I am tired of these movies that teach young women today to behave like this grotesque red head in this film. I would have found her pretty had she had more redeeming qualities.

I totally agree with you, the whole situation was cringe worthy. I just cannot believe he still decides to stay with her after her behaviour.
He was the victim in the film. Ok it wasn't good to cheat but I think he was the victim there and i am a woman!
