Gang, I'm the first to admit there's a lot I just =don't get.= I know it's good, I know it's weathered the test of time... But I just don't =get= it. Opera comes to mind. Hip-hop too. And let's not forget Jane Austen novels.
Likewise torture porn. Can someone please explain its appeal?
Maybe I'm weak, but I just can't bear the thought of women being hurt. I think our job as men is to =protect= women. Not to watch a film where they're in helpless agony, weeping, screaming, begging for rescue that won't come. The idea sickens me. I find it literally nauseating.
What am I missing?
