The Sanctimony of Diablo

Coming back off hiatus (well, not really hiatus, but rather out-of-country film shoot) and  Codyreturned to our fine land to hear much ado about the Fempire piece in the New York Times. Ryan Tate's rxn on Defamer pretty much sums up my thoughts on this:
Lady screenwriters? Just a thought: If you don't want people to fixate on your sexuality maybe don't blurt out to a Times writer, "We've all seen each other naked..."Or call your drunken limousine rides "super porno... But having talked about your work on a would-be series called Sluts, and having dubbed yourselves "The Fempire," it sounded a bit disingenuous when you all complained about "pressure to look photogenic in a way that is not demanded of male screenwriters."

Could not have said it better myself.
