See, when I heard about CB's rant I forgot all about his hotness and I found myself incredibly angry at how important the douchebag apparently thinks he is. I guess its not all his fault, society allows him to feel this way because we give celebrities value, when in fact most of them are uneducated,ill-mannered fucktards.

and don't you forget it!

It's in our DNA to like "mean" guys. It makes us wet. Maybe it's the caveman thing, but it's confusing as a woman, in the same way the madonna/whore thing can be confusing to men. The nastiest men I know (sexually speaking) end up marrying a virgin. The nicest girls only date assholes.

It's the jamming of 2 competing interests--wanting what makes your pussy wet and wanting what is healthy for you. Usually the pussy wins.

I found the trick is to meet a nice guy with potential and teach him how to order you around in the bedroom. Best of both worlds!

Ok, maybe not an actual virgin, but you know what I mean...they are perverts, but they marry the most vanilla girl and cheat on her. Ala she is their madonna and he gets the whores on the side.

I've never heard a woman say that she likes bad boys. It's just what lazy guys say after they've been dumped so that they can pretend like they were "nice guys" and that they're the ones getting the short end.

Do you think Russsel Crowe would be half as famous if not for his anger issues? Naomi Campbell? It's a publicity trick, and hey, SOMEONE out there must be going for it.

I think most women want to do a bad boy, and men want to be bad boys, because theres a sense of freedom in it, doing and saying what you please. But in saying that, its completely over-romanticized.

A DP is not a "peon". They get a bunch of money to do highly technical work. I'm a camera assistant and one of the top rules for me is "don't look an actor square in the eyes during a take". These are the basics for all the camera dept.

Sounds like the DP was wandering around in the BG fucking with lights when he should have been "quiet on the set". Do you know how much money is wasted from a blown take? Christian Bale was loud as hell but everything he said to the guy was relevant to carrying out a job like a professional.

ugh mikef....

just, UGH!

I haven't yet seen the rant, only heard about it but let me just say that women don't have the monopoly on letting hot celebrities off the hook for bad behavior because they're hot. Or even on fetishizing said bad behavior because they're hot. There are plenty of female celebrities who practically derive all their fame from being hot women who act like morons or maniacs.  That couldn't happen without men. People of all genital configurations are capable of sucking, often in strikingly similar ways.

Agree on the badboy thing! Dating a 45 yr old, ex. bad boy fucker who in the ninth inning wants Mr. Right. ME! How nice; I get the duty of covering her w/a blanket when she's cold and BTW "rub my feet". Only for me to think what she was doing 3+ years ago and I have not received any of that action. Oh, and I have seen some of these loosers pics and all are ugly fuckers anyway!

Point the first: women who dig this kind of "bad boy" asshole are pretty much in the minority. I have lots of female friends, and none of them dig this kind of thing - and we range in age from mid-to-late twenties to early forties.

Point the second: A lot of us don't see the big shit over Bale, douchebaggery or no aside.

Point the third: "Pick some poor guy to settle and then ruin his life"? Um, I don't see any women dragging you off to the courthouse, Captain Bitter. You're a perfect example of the what the Heartless Bitches call "Nice Guys Who Aren't".

Point the fourth: I'm no longer twenty-something and wearing a single-digit size, so you wouldn't give me the time of day in a dating sense despite the fact that I can fix plumbing, train dogs, hike all day in the Rockies, love to give head, will be tolerant of your aging parents, and actually eat a nice meal without bitching about how it's ruining my diet. Stop throwing those stones before you've no more house left.

For one thing, they're merely a sample of interests - like most people, I have more. As to why they'd make someone interested, they show compassion, activity, adaptability...things that makes someone a good partner.

But then, your puzzlement pretty much demonstrates your first point.

"in fact I think I've openly admitted I'm pretty much of a bastard.."

This would make someone interested in what way, exactly?
