Cause suing is gonna help you stay in the closet. I just wanna pull her into a closet like Aster did Vivian and show her what her life looks like.

Lmao “woman, go take your pills” was definitely the funniest part of that video.

Omg… the domestic violence documentary. The clip… When he kicked the deer in the head was disturbing enough… The rest I can’t even bare to speak on.

Yeah it’s weird to me that she wants to participate in online networking as a lesbian, but remain closeted in real life, and expects that dichotomy to be endorsed & protected by Netflix of all people.

I realize that she’ll probably win the case, because our video watching habits are specifically quite protected under the law. But like if she wants to stay closeted — she can’t have her cake and eat it too! Yeah, what the LOLCat said! I just think this kind of thing isn’t necessarily the best PR for lesbians, I wish someone else was suing. La la la. I don’t know why I think this way.

The social media first date stuff is painfully true. Then again, it’s my own fault. My dates generally know not only my basic biographical information, but also what packer I ordered that particular week. One could argue I overshare on Twitter just a tiny bit…

I get that there are privacy issues in the Netflix case. I do. I also don’t judge people who remain closeted. That said, the lawsuit is over the top. Liking Brokeback Mountain doesn’t mean you’re queer, it means that you are queer friendly. If she wants to be closeted (and I don’t judge that part), then she shouldn’t rate queer movies online and then shouldn’t file a big newsy lawsuit about being outed. Seriously. If I could make a lol cat right now, it would say: CLOSETED? UR DOIN IT WRONG

The Sam Bee video was hilarious and those girls were awesome.

Also, when they say “closeted lesbian mom”, what does that mean? That she has a husband and kids? That she has a wife and kids? ‘Cause I think she’s giving it all away herself if she has a husband and is actually a lesbian.

The Netflix thing is absurd for the sole notion that there is no anonymity online. The minute a person starts signs up for e-mail, leaves a comment on a blog or forum or signs up for a newsletter, they are giving up their right for privacy.

If she wanted to watch lesbian-themed content and remain anonymous, she should’ve looked for alternate options.

Just wanted to say I totally understand about the being on a first date and realising that you’d already effectively been dating for a while.

It was one of the reasons I kinda gave up online dating, because by the time came to have the first date, you couldn’t really have a first date of getting to know one another, with all the boundaries and appropriateness of a first date. Namely, because, all the first-date stuff had already been talked about before you actually met.

I just felt that something was missing in the dating process to be honest, so I stopped doing it. Meant I got way fewer dates out of things, but I got way more meaningful ones …
