This is Ron Guancione, leader of the US wing of the trans-exclusionary hate group for gay and lesbian people, the LGB Alliance. Apparently the very online right are losing their minds over Cuties, a film that criticizes the hypersexualization of prepubescent girls.

This poo poo is weird because there was a massive social media push to shout on Twitter and FB about how things were so hosed up that even 4chan was taking a moral stand against Netflix but the only place anyone had even heard about it was 4chan. Like, gee, I wonder why they were the only ones keyed into it and talking so much about it. Seems completely real and on-the-level.

That's because, allegedly, Netflix marketed the movie by hypersexualizing its subjects. hosed up, if true!

Yeah the film won dramatic awards and reviews have praised it for its condemnation of the glorifying of the child dance industry and tackling a serious issue of young girls growing up, seeing these sexualized performances and how it warps their perception of sexuality and the value of their own bodies especially when you add issues of race and culture into the mix.

Calling it a fuckup seems too generous somehow. Like, it certainly isn't an innocent mistake, its a brutally cynical one which reflects a positive desire to market children as sex objects for an imagined profit.

Lol, he's rabidly thirsty for AOC so at best he maybe wants to be dominated and at worst his dad made him such a hosed up bundle of neuroses that he's terrified of his sexual urges and is saddled with massive guilt.

I think that's the problem. As someone who doesnt know anything about the film, I could write it off at a glance as just another piece of exploitative kiddie pageant media. Which I suppose could work if that was the filmmaker's intention--fool the viewer into watching something critical of what they were looking for--but I dont think that's the case here.

yeah as I said, seems very unlikely. Just, the fake tweet is actually non-ridiculous, because spouses can be non-sexual and still valid.

i kinda agree, if this were one of those shows i think the line being crossed wouldn't be the imagery alone, it would be coupling it with the title "cuties" that isn't even pretending to be anything but pedo bait.

(probably someone in netflix marketing rationalized it as some kind of edgy satire or meta-commentary that supported the message of the movie, but at the end of the day the rule of goats applies)

Ah, sorry. But yeah, what you said there is very apt.

I dunno if his wife was also chaste but suddenly realizing you're ACE after marriage could be a thing if you just thought "I don't have to think about this till later anyway"
