One Crazy Lady

I'm reposting this from
tx_cronopio's journal...
http://users.livejournal.com/_allecto_/34718.html
Quoted from one of _allecto_'s comments:
I feel awful for Joss Whedon's wife. From what I've read about him and the interviews I've watched, I'm fairly certain that he rapes his wife and abuses her in various other ways. I honestly can't think of anything worse than living with a man like Joss who thinks of women like the way he portrays in his tv shows. How awful. The comment about the money was meant to be about how I personally could see no benefit from being with a man like Joss OTHER than money. Joss uses and abuses her. Probably rapes her and thinks of women as whores etc, etc. Obviously, Ms Whedon has her own reasons for staying. Fear, patriarchal concepts of love, etc. But I would argue that she gives everything and gets nothing. Money is the only concrete thing that she could possibly gain. But as I said money is worth nothing compared with self-integrity, self-esteem, love (sister/lesbian/gynaffectionate love) etc. So she still loses out. Poor woman.
I'm speechless. How anybody can make these kind of assertions about Whedon's personal life based upon what he writes in a tv show is beyond me.
Is there anybody out there with posting priviledges to Fandom_Wank or Whedonesque? If so, would you mind reposting this? I'm wondering if there are any grounds for a libel suit here. I've tried explaining this to the lady making the inflammatory posts / comments, but she keeps deleting my comments. What a wacko!

Seriously the biggest problem I have with this is that its basically saying that men cant love. The only real love is this gynaffectionate(made up word!) love. So basically, this bitch believes men arent human. And really, how is she any better than the homophobic jerk shouting out "god hates queers"? in my book, she's not. She invalidates a group of people's love for each other. And for me that's just as bad as any other bigotry. Maybe worse, because she hides behind a fucking shroud of feminism.
*pokes the crazy lady* Feminism - you're doing it wrong.
