Reply #102: As I skim this thread, I'm not seeing the "because" [View All]

I'm seeing claims that she looks mediocre and is mediocre in those other areas. I suppose you're technically correct that "freakin' HOT" is an aesthetic judgment, but really it's at the same intellectual depth of as the criticisms that followed, just at the other end of the spectrum. It's all shallow, snarky, bantering, dissection (or support) of a public figure. So, I'm not seeing that difference you claim - the OP made a trivial (positive) comment about one aspect of JA, and it was followed by trivial (negative) comments about other aspects of her persona. There may be truth to the idea that female celebrities are treated differently, but this thread isn't evidence of it...

(FTR, I think she is well above mediocre in appearance, and not untalented in her chosen profession.)
