EDIT: This is admittedly an overblown comparison, but arguing that because people have seen her nude before means that she doesn't get to be upset about a sex tape that she agreed to make getting leaked against her will strikes me as similar to when Sklansky argues that raping prostitutes should carry less weight than raping "normal women."
no, she gets to be upset, obviously. i don't think she can have the same sense of shame and thus outrage though, nor do i think she would have the same concerns about privacy violations.

I honestly think it would be the same.

27 months isn't a long time. Some get probation, some get 5 years, it's all over the map.

I guess that's pretty surprising/confusing to me. People frequently get such light sentences for what I deem far worse crimes. They'll beat someone to within an inch of their life and get 2-3 years. Sentencing seems so arbitrary, oh well. She looks good naked and that's all that matters.

Yeah. Next I'm going to be sexist for suggesting women are inferior at spatial geometry and lifting heavy objects. Soon we will have to stop saying that women have less body hair and are fatter.

I really do think that her best move at this point is to do a nude shoot with Playboy or some such magazine. (Actually preferably not Playboy as it is such a ***** joke with the airbrushing and covering up and so forth).

When there are high quality nudes of EA out there, who gives a F about some grainy hotel nonsense? The guy would become totally irrelevant, rotting away in jail. Seems like that's what she wants.

I know this won't happen unless she changes jobs due to the Disney thing, but I'd say there is a 20% chance she changes jobs/networks (Fox would totally be down), realizes that this is a great option for her and follows through.

ONE TIME

I'm naked on the internet!". She's thinking "OMG! This sicko was right outside the hotel room. What could I have done if he decided to just come into the room?".

I wonder how many of you guys that are saying EA is overreacting have a sister or wife? I know someone is going to say "If my wife was that hot, I wouldn't care!".
Just because she's thinking OMG OMG OMG! doesn't make it reasonable. Acting emotional is perfectly normal and unerstandable in the immediate aftermath of an incident like that. Acting emotional for eight months straight is unreasonable and she is only damaging her own life and reputation by carrying on like this when she could have moved on to other things by now.

Is EA overreacting? I don't think so, but maybe she is. Is it understandable? Completely. Do I blame her for overreacting? Not at all.

IMO, you think she's overreacting because she's hot and she knows she's hot. That's the wrong way to look at it.
Sorry to hear you haven't been fortunate enough to meet any calm, composed girls in your life.

We get it. No girl has ever loved you. It is hard for you to act rationally because of this emotionally scarring circumstance.

This thread has been a great chance for the sexists and wannabe rapists to speak their minds.

LOL. Yea that's it. Most girls think the guy got nailed and is being punished way too harshly.

Anyway, I'm sorry you haven't been fortunate enough to talk to a real girl and not have an imaginary confersation w/ the inflatable doll under your bed.

I may be on crazy pills or something but not only does Thremp appear to be 100% correct in his posts but people are reaching bizarre conclusions about what he is saying that don't seem to be remotely based on anything he has written.

There are cases pending with 16 other women this guy surreptitiously taped.

They just need to play with Tangrams more as a kid.

Seriously though. Give your kid Tangrams. It will improve their spatial relations development dramatically.

Spatial relations != hand-eye coordination. You probably had the right idea of how to fit your car in, you just didn't execute it well enough.

Just heard about the outcome. Seems perfectly fine to me on all sides. EA reaction is appropriate. With more cases pending against the guy he will probably be in prison a bit longer, can't say he doesn't belong there.

my whole conception has been wrong in more than one driving mishap

though to be fair, I was miserably taught and didn't *really* know how to drive until I worked at a car wash one summer in college.

You were supposed to counter with something about fencing, so I could reply that everyone knows fencing is just shut-you-eyes-and-stab dumb luck.

No it isn't. It is true that most women are prone to act irrationally in emotional circumstances. That doesn't mean it's appropriate. It's just a personality flaw that is typical in women. I'm guessing that Matt Williams' definition of "a real girl" is one who possesses this typical characteristic, and not one of the minority who are lucky enough not to. Men of course also have have different kinds of flaws that we get grief about.

The problem with EA here, that Matt Williams and many others seem to be failing to understand, is that EA has had eight months to stop having her life revolve around this incident, and she has failed to do so. Indeed, she appears to be taking the opposite approach of trying to attract MORE attention to the incident and her victimization.

There is a difference between simply having strong personal emotions, and choosing to express them in a convolutedly calculated manner to the media by way of a statement, as EA has done. Nobody's asking her to sympathize with this guy. But for her to bitch about it in public eight months later when the guy has clearly been destroyed enough by every two-bit blogger and reporter with so much as a passing interest in sports, just smacks of egotism and self-absorption.

Has her life really revolved around these incidents? I just don't think any of you have any idea of what you're talking about. She went on Oprah once I think and everything else I've read in here have either been transcripts of courtroom proceedings or interviews right after them right? Doesn't really seem that excessive to me. I mean she's obviously been back at work, is going on dancing with the stars, etc. etc.

She's a super hot public figure who has probably had all sorts of brushes with creepy ass dudes. Then this, a really creepy episode, happened and blew up all over the place and now her naked ass is all over the internet. I can see how this would have lingering effects when your job constantly involves you being put in the same kinds of situations with weird dudes.
