Shock: Superfeminist Walking Pussyhat Joss Whedon Was Cheating on His Wife With Adoring Female Fans, Ex-Wife Says in Blogpost

Noooo. I can't believe an ugly fat neckbeard dweeb would exploit his fame and 10,000 watt Virtue Signal like that.

Joss Whedon is a part-time director and full-time Twitter addict. He is constantly talking up Muh Feminism in both his part-time job (Buffy the Vampire Slayer, for example) and in his full-time job of calling for violence on Twitter.

His wife says that he's another one of those unfortunate betas who uses his fame and his political posturing as a rap to get into bed with girls he'd never have a chance with, except for Muh Feminism.

She says he explained away his early inappropriate contacts with other women as just part of his feminist upbringing.

There were times in our relationship that I was uncomfortable with the attention Joss paid other women. He always had a lot of female friends, but he told me it was because his mother raised him as a feminist, so he just liked women better. He said he admired and respected females, he didn’t lust after them. I believed him and trusted him. On the set of “Buffy,” Joss decided to have his first secret affair.

Fifteen years later, when he was done with our marriage and finally ready to tell the truth, he wrote me, “When I was running ‘Buffy,’ I was surrounded by beautiful, needy, aggressive young women. It felt like I had a disease, like something from a Greek myth. Suddenly I am a powerful producer and the world is laid out at my feet and I can’t touch it.” But he did touch it....

Joss admitted that for the next decade and a half, he hid multiple affairs and a number of inappropriate emotional ones that he had with his actresses, co-workers, fans and friends, while he stayed married to me.... He wanted it all; he didn’t want to choose, so he accepted the duality as a part of his life.

...

Despite understanding, on some level, that what he was doing was wrong, he never conceded the hypocrisy of being out in the world preaching feminist ideals, while at the same time, taking away my right to make choices for my life and my body based on the truth. He deceived me for 15 years, so he could have everything he wanted. I believed, everyone believed, that he was one of the good guys, committed to fighting for women’s rights, committed to our marriage, and to the women he worked with. But I now see how he used his relationship with me as a shield, both during and after our marriage, so no one would question his relationships with other women or scrutinize his writing as anything other than feminist.

...


We’re finally divorced; I’m doing architecture again, and slowly getting my life and self-esteem back.

...

Until recently, Joss was still letting the illusion of our marriage stay intact. Now that it is finally public, I want to let women know that he is not who he pretends to be. I want the people who worship him to know he is human, and the organizations giving him awards for his feminist work, to think twice in the future about honoring a man who does not practice what he preaches. But no matter what happens, or how people interpret this statement, I no longer have to carry the burden of Joss’ long-term deceit and confessions. I am free.

Well, think there's always an advantage when you hit on women who depend on you for employment.

But Whedon told his wife those darn actresses were so darn needy and aggressive (implying they forced themselves on his pasty, fat ass).
Just like this blameless guy....

Hell, I know of two people who he hit on a cons (two separate cons). The one he told he had an open marriage and she laughed at him and the other is pretty much a zero on the Kinsey scale so she was rather confused as to why he thought this was even a possibility.

Yeah, it's about time that everyone else noticed the blazingly obvious.

76 Hollywood is one of those weird confluence places. All the people (or at least most) in front of the camera are glamorous and gorgeous. All the people running the show behind the scenes, with all the power naturally, are emotionally needy, unattractive nerds who were the ones scorned in junior high and high school. As such, they have zero self esteem, crave power and influence, and live for movie nights with their buds. So when they go to Hollywood and crazy hot women start throwing themselves at these people, why the hell would anyone be surprised they'd say yes? Doesn't matter to them if they're married, they feel like they deserve that attention.

ALL of Hollywood is like that, and I tell my children that literally everything you see is fake. It almost doesn't matter what the subject is, something about it staged and therefore completely fake especially if a narrative of any kind is involved.

I'm a huge fan of both Buffy Angel, but always thought Firefly was overrated. Decent, but overrated. I said as much on twitter this morning and instantly was mocked by a fanboy over it. It made me laugh.

96 Morena Baccarin? Don't you take that if you have a rash?/

She was the alien queen who disliked clothes in ABC's attempt at a "V" reboot. I was sad when it was cancelled.

97 >>I'm a huge fan of both Buffy Angel, but always thought Firefly was
overrated. Decent, but overrated. I said as much on twitter this morning
and instantly was mocked by a fanboy over it. It made me laugh.


And "Doll House" was flat-out creepy.

103 56 Yes, yes, I know my Joss hate is well known but this isn't news. It's a barely kept secret that he's a skirt chaser.

Hell, I know of two people who he hit on a cons (two separate cons). The one he told he had an open marriage and she laughed at him and the other is pretty much a zero on the Kinsey scale so she was rather confused as to why he thought this was even a possibility.

Yeah, it's about time that everyone else noticed the blazingly obvious.

Once upon a once a time, before the hate, I was waaay into Buffy and was quite plugged into some of the behind the scenes scuttlebutt. The rumors at the time were that he nailed basically the entire cast of Buffy. It's difficult to know what of that is true, what of that is cattiness and what of that is oh come on, she only gets ahead because she gives head.

The odds of this making Joss any less of a Feminist Hero You Guys are low.

143 "When I was running _Buffy_, I was surrounded by beautiful, needy, aggressive young women."

Who, no doubt, invited and allowed Whedon to "grab them right by the pussy", and were quite happy when he did so.

Except when another man who'd personally experienced the very same pattern of female behavior laughingly noted it in private, his comments thereupon were immediately condemned as THE WORST THING IN THE ENTIRE HISTORY OF EVER.

The first rule of female hypergamy is you don't talk about female hypergamy. The second rule of female hypergamy is you don't talk about female hypergamy.

204 Joss Whedon is a pasty, pudgy, middle-aged ginger who would not get so much as a glance from any beautiful actress, were he not in a position of power. This whole sordid tale proves a point that I keep making to my son: women are attracted to powerful men. Period. It doesn't matter how homely the male, if he wields power, his allure in irresistible, even for feminazis. Therefore, aspire to be an alpha male leveraging your best assets, whether those assets are your physical strength, your intellect, your wit, etc. Avoid being a beta male at all costs. Nobody likes a beta male, least of all good conservative women.

208 "ALL of Hollywood is like that, and I tell my children that literally everything you see is fake."

There's also the obvious youth obsession in the industry, carried out to the level of an overt sexual fetish, where the definition of "youth" extends to persons who are underage adolescents, sometimes to actual children.

The Roman Polanski case and the Corey Feldman revelations are just scratching the surface of something very large, very dark and very ugly.

They are three exceptionally beautiful women who wouldn't otherwise give a schmendrick like Whedon a second glance.

This eclipse has been played up as a Gay Pride Event.
Super-Ghey Nephew had to have Mommy Dearest come pick him up, so they could take their University-issue Eclipse Glasses downtown, to where the Gay Pride Brigade was having a very special Eclipse-Watching Party on the top floor of the Retarded-Science Museum.

357 35 It's one of the fault lines on the left, mainly among the feminists. Free love (anything goes sexually) vs sex is dehumanizing to women (treating women like objects).

Posted by: Anon Y. Mous at August 21, 2017 02:28 PM
-----------------------------------------
The problem is that men and women are different and the "anything goes," hook-up culture has painful consequences for women in real life.

But they CAN'T admit that the sexes are different. They CAN'T admit that the old rules of female modesty and restraint had any sense to them.

Therefore, rather than change their own views and behavior to align better with female nature, they develop an ideology that blames men entirely. That is, they argue that male nature, which is NATURAL, is evil.

So they are at war with the NATURE of both women and men. By rejecting the differences between the sexes, they end up at war with sexuality itself.

IOW, the "free love" (an oxymoron, BTW) and the "puritanical" elements eventually go hand in hand.

that the old rules of female modesty and restraint had any sense to
them.



Therefore, rather than change their own views and behavior to align
better with female nature, they develop an ideology that blames men
entirely. That is, they argue that male nature, which is NATURAL, is
evil.



So they are at war with the NATURE of both women and men. By
rejecting the differences between the sexes, they end up at war with
sexuality itself.



IOW, the "free love" (an oxymoron, BTW) and the "puritanical" elements eventually go hand in hand.

____________________

And the Emancipation Proclamation only declared the end of slavery in the Confederate states.

Slavery continued to be legal in the border U.S. states that allowed slavery (MS, KY, MD, DE).

Does Chelsea think we should now burn those non-Confederate slave states to the ground? That we should blow up the Lincoln Memorial? If not, then isn't she sanctioning their "evil" tolerance for slavery?

So tired of this idiocy and ignorance.

What about the Vietnam Veterans Memorial? Many Americans opposed that war, and believed that it was unjust. Should we "tear down that wall" too? If not, then why are we memorializing a bunch of baby killers who fought an unjust war?

Indeed. When you realize how few people in Commiewood actually came in completely from the outside, and how many are there because of their parents, their grandparents, or in Drew Barrymore's case, her GREAT Grandparents. It is the closest thing the USA has to a Birth Aristocracy.

451 I saw the first season of Buffy. It was okay. I thought the characters and the acting were quite good, but the stories were dull.

I saw Firefly. I didn't care for it much. Liked Jane, Wash and the engineer lady, and thought maybe three or four episodes were good, the rest were a good case for cancellation.

Liked the Avengers, but suspect the best parts came from Zak Penn.

Only liked Ultron from Avengers 2.

Not surprised at all that he's a sleaze pit with extra grease. He really seemed to go unhinged when his queen was defeated in November.

452 Dear Joss,

You don't like me, and might reject my advice out of hand. I understand. But on the offhand chance it was all part of the act- if you hate yourself as much as I think you do- please let me offer a helping hand.

You don't have to deny who you are. You are a successful man who speaks to the heart of millions of women. You have money and power, like I do. Hell, you have less divorces than I do! But please, my friend. My wives would have had infinite money and fanatic love from much of the planet, if only they would betray me. Truth or lies wouldn't even have a walk-on role. But they didn't. That is love, my friend. And I love them too. I meet their every desire. Only reason I don't bring them all into a harem involves legal considerations.

I am working on those, by the way.

And your wife... dislikes you enough to run you down for free. MAN. Shouldn't feminism make you better able to relate to women?

You don't have to be creepy, little buddy. You can be free. You can bring pride and joy to the women in your life. Break your chains! Find your Serenity!

It's basic financial sense.

"We live in a divided country and I make my money appealing to as large a section of the country as possible. If I want to continue at this, I probably shouldn't use my cultural position as a soapbox for controversial, or even just partisan, things."

Instead, they think, "People like my stories about fake people which means that they'll listen to my opinions on health care policy!"

There's intellectual intelligence and emotional intelligence.

The Civil War was fought for mainly economic reasons. It was not a case of Good vs. Bad. There were plenty of good people, and plenty of slave owners, on both sides of the war. There was also plenty of anti-black bigotry in the north, as freed slaves from the south found out the hard way when they moved north after the war.

Really pissed me off trying to get pizzas to their PAYING customers on time!! Would ride in large bunches, and when trying to pass one would inevitably drift into the oncoming traffic lane to prevent said passing.

There were OTHER roads and even a F'N BIKE TRAIL HE LOBBIED FOR they could use, but NOOOOO!!! HAD to be on the road!!

Pope Commie also says that these unlimited numbers of un-vetted and un-vettable migrants are entitled (yep, entitled) to have the host countries provide them with housing, health care, bank accounts, and enough monthly income to satisfy their "dignity" needs.

Curiously, Pope Commie doesn't explain how the invaded nations are supposed to pay for all the "free" shit he demands for "migrants" crossing our borders.

524 Dems are in deep trouble. One reason for the enthusiastic embrace of vile, and stupid, race-baiting (more than usual, that is). Desperate to increase black turnout.

They're not gaining 80 House seats, they're probably not gaining 20. House is mostly gerrymandered along partisan lines anyway.

Senate's different, individual candidates and situations matter much more. But the numbers are against the Dems, bigly.

But, as I keep saying, this is not too meaningful: "GOP" doesn't really tell you anything any longer. A GOP legislator can be 80% as damaging to the country as a Dem.

If the GOP establishment gets away with what they're doing this year, I don't see much hope, because it means there's a sufficient base of clueless voters for the GOP who operate at the same shallow, ignorant level as most Dem voters. Meaning real change/improvement can be blocked indefinitely.

Still waiting for Trump's statement that he will not sign any CRs of more than 2 weeks' duration, and not ominibus CRs of any duration.

Conflicting requirements. Cap 3 really, really didn't need the Civil War plot thread. You could pull that and have a tighter movie focused on Bucky and Iron Man with Cap in between. I suspect Marvel wanted the big event and the Russo brothers did the best they could. This was their first really big multi-character movie. And some of it worked pretty well. The airport fight was pure fun. While the final bunker fight was very well choreographed and emotionally taut.

I also noticed how many billionaires (like Zuckerberg) have been talking recently about a "universal minimum basic income."

Only one way that's going to happen -- and that's by screwing over American taxpayers.

That's what the push towards One World Government is all about. Letting the rest of the world get its grubby, greedy hands on American wealth. With some corrupt U.N.-like bureaucracy administering the program and skimming its huge percentage off the top.

Because it's "not fair" that Americans have more wealth than third-worlders do.

So in the interests of "social justice," we need some giant global bureaucracy stripping Americans of their ill-gotten wealth and re-distributing it to the oppressed brown peoples of the world.

I'm sure Infinity War (which the Russos are directing) will at least be fun, but I wonder if they can effectively paint a portrait that goes in so many directions at once. I fully expect to hear squeals of joy from early reviews followed by more modest, "It was pretty good" reviews to trickle in afterwards.

Infinity War sounds like it could be a mess. We'll see, Feige is a good producer. One of the best ever, maybe. But you have different directors for different segments. James Gunn is writing/directing the Guardians segment, for one.

If they show Thantos wiping out the entire population of Nova Prime, I'll be impressed.

I think the best news about the Russo brothers is that they have the support of Marvel as opposed to fighting against them. Teamwork helps.

Meanwhile, most blacks think of Civil War monuments the way Charles Barkley does. ("I'm 56 and never thought about Civil War monuments a day in my life.")

MSM (the real D party anymore) can paint Trump with a racist brush and cut Trump's support at the margins, but only at the cost of lowering the approval of MSM and the D party even more.

In the long run, Trump will gain some with Black, Brown and Asian Deplorables, and there are some.

========

I dunno if you're in the South, but just to bolster your point about Blacks and Confederate symbols: The one time a Confederate inspired state flag was put on the ballot (MS) it won 68 percent of the vote. Keep in mind the anti side had a boat load of free publicity from the media as well as typical GOTV shenanigans. Also, not all of the anti voters were black: My uncle voted that way and he's very right wing: His rationale was "Get rid of it and maybe people will shut up about this." More instructive: It won in some Delta counties, areas that are by and large, majority black by sizable amounts. They either didn't turn up or they voted for it. What does this tell you? Blacks in the South really don't give a damn about the issues and some might just be more than a little annoyed by outsiders coming in and starting shit.

I was reading an article the other day about that court order that Arpaio is supposed to have violated (the one he was found in criminal contempt for not following).

Turns out that the order was something like 40 pages long, and it had to be clarified by a subsequent judge, and even the prosecutor admitted that the order was ambiguous.

But yeah, clearly Arpaio, who is not a lawyer, should have known exactly what it meant. Even the damn judges and the prosecutor were not sure what it said.

That contempt charge was bullshit, and was clearly a political hit job.

Trump should have pardoned Arpaio a week ago. All the man did was try to enforce the law.

I really like the Russos. They cut their teeth on Community, making some of that series' best episodes (if I remember correctly, they did all of the paintball episodes). They obviously have an understanding of structure, character, and plot.

Screen Junkies had a show where they brought the pair on to discuss the Honest Trailer they had made of The Winter Soldier, and they come across extremely well.

I just don't think a story as big as Infinity War is supposed to be CAN be wrangled well. That's not a hit on the Russos, just a comment on the size of the task at hand.

I'm not Marvel fanboi, but I do want to have a good time at the movies when I go. So, I'm hoping for the best but expecting...a bit less.

659 Thought the Arpaio issue was contempt citation, not from federal court. Meh. If it was, then nothing Trump can do, if federal, then yes - still meh.

But it's good to see Flake freaking out this early. Public polling numbers look pretty grim for him. His case is really central - if you can't get rid of someone that bad, then there is little hope, because the voters just can't rise above their MSM, NPR-level ignorance of what matters. Collins and Murkowski and McConnell are hopeless cases, their voters just *want* the decline to continue (i.e. they're too stupid to understand that's what they're voting for). Flake should be doable.

But there are other GOP, and vulnerable Dem, cases that need to be addressed, starting now. Historically early for a campaign, but the votes happening the next 3 months will be crucial fodder for them (if someone in the WH and useful corners of the Hill decide to re-introduce politics to politics, at some point).

A lot of people in politics seem confused by polls. Even on issues that gain huge support (like "expanded background checks" getting 90%), there's a difference between the issue getting people to say, "Yeah, sure," and, "I'm voting purely on this issue!"

I'm not entirely sure where the lines fall on the Confederate statues thing, but I'd bet that more people who vote are animated to vote against removal on cultural grounds than the other way.

661 Voting blocks - not true for hispanics in Texas.

Last Governor's race, Rep. Candidate Abbott took 45% of the Hispanic vote, pretty little white girl Wendy didn't impress them at all.

Gotta give hispanics credit, they're generally democrat, but they don't like to vote for women much, and they don't like to vote for black candidates at all. That doesn't mean they'll vote for the other side, necessarily; it just means that they' stay home mostly when the dems put either of them on the ballot.

Right. As far as Emma and John Steed knew, she was a widow.

There are some moments in the early part of that show where you're sure Emma and Steed were sleeping together, or had been at one time and found out they worked better without being lovers. She was very fond of him, that was clear. In contrast, his relationship with Cathy Gale, Honor Blackman's character, was pretty prickly, as in cactus.

671 The current Pope makes me feel embarrassed to be a Catholic.

Posted by: steevy


I'm not a Catholic... the doctrine of infallibility was issued pretty late (near end of 19th century). I sometimes wonder if it wasn't meant as a hedge against the possibility of people like Francis. "Look, he may not be sound, but he hasn't made any infallible pronouncements, so he's still a valid Pope as far as we know, ok people?" In other words, in order for him to be an antipope, he'd have to make a pronouncement that fulfilled the criteria of infallibility, and was also heretical. But he probably won't do that. So he's good to go. He's infallible, after all. Not impeccable.

683 Forget the feud between Flake and Trump - Arpaio is till popular with Republicans in Arizona. He just lost his last election because most people, even his supporters, thought that at age 84 he was too old to keep on doing the Sherrif's job.

What Flake just did was to come out and say that all of his constituents who supported Arpaio (the vast majority of his base) are racist.

Flake just kissed his Senate seat goodbye. Doesn't matter what Trump does or doesn't say, Flake is done. If he goes out in the primary, then the GOP might hold the seat, if he wins the primary, the the seat goes Democrat.

Whether he intended to or not before, now Trump absolutely should pardon Arpaio, and make Flake go full Monty with the race baiting.

Not to get in to an argument, but it is our view (Catholic) that infallibility was issued by Christ to the Apo(e.g. Matthew 1. I understand you probably disagree. And for all the stupid stuff that Francis says about economics and immigration, he has remained fairly orthodox on moral issues like abortion and gay marriage.

Having had a cheating spouse, all I can say is I didn't react that way. Of course, we had three very small children so my reaction might have been more vindictive if we hadn't. But that was their dad whether I thought he was scum or not and it would have messed their lives up further if I had messed with him.

I will admit to wanting to strangle him with his own entrails as he brought his ho into my house and slept with her (likely in my bed) with our 3 yr and 18 mnth sons asleep down the hall. He did this while I was spending the night in the hospital with our three week old daughter in preparation for bringing her home from the NICU. If their is a cheating hall of shame, my ex certainly is a gold star member.

I have known her since birth so I know she was raised by two loving parents in an intact home and got opportunities without being spoiled. She is respectful and thoughtful and has never given her parents one iota of trouble. She was raised in a milieu of supportive friends and among her extended family She is smart, funny, sweet, creative, and kind to people and animals. I also know that if she ever runs into an influential Joss Whedon character who convinces her that she is the prettiest and most talented thing he has ever seen she will probably fall for it.

"There are some moments in the early part of that show where you're sure Emma and Steed were sleeping together, or had been at one time and found out they worked better without being lovers."

At one point, Macnee, Rigg, and one of the creators of the show were all asked whether they thought Peel and Steed were doing it. Macnee's answer was yes, at least three times a day, in every room of their apartments and in every conceivable position (he was a proper British gentleman, so he put it more politely than that, but that was the general idea.) Rigg said no, it was all just sexual tension. The creator took your second option, that they had been lovers but were just good friends in the period seen in the show.

"In contrast, his relationship with Cathy Gale, Honor Blackman's character, was pretty prickly, as in cactus."

Particularly since in the pre-Peel episodes, Steed was kind of a cad and a user. The creator's answer to whether he and Gale were lovers was no freakin' way, and I'd have to agree that if they did, it was a hatef---, at least on her part. The problem with the early episodes is that a.) they all look like they were done on a budget of about two pound six shillings, and b.) the stupid British union rules in those days basically required you to shoot the majority of each episode "live", even if they weren't actually being transmitted that way, which led to inevitable mistakes. Kind of ruins the suspension of disbelief when a character opens a door and there's a camera and operator right there, big as day. :-(

The really interesting thing is that during the first season, a.) *Steed* was the sidekick, or at least not the main character, and b.) his partner was a *guy*. For good or ill, only the first third of the pilot and two other complete episodes are extant; the others were wiped out when their videotape was reused.

As for Honor Blackman, I hadn't realized how old she was; she was in her late 30's when she did both the Avengers and Goldfinger. She's still going strong at 92, God bless her, and give her credit for principles; she's a republican in the British sense, and unlike a lot of the other celebrities who slagged the monarchy in their youth, she refused the honor the palace offered her.
