I feel differently about it, BUT it will of course all depend on how the whole thing plays out. Making her "downfall" about sexuality has the potential to be problematic, but... it's the same old question about there being a line between portrayal and endorsement that isn't always easy to identify. I keep coming back to this and I don't have any clear answers (remember that series of posts I started here at LB and never finished? Yep, there was a reason for that). Like, I want there to be stories about how sex tapes have the potential to mess up girls' lives because we live in an extremely sexist world. I want these stories to be told because this is a thing that happens and I don't want it to remain unacknowledged, and also because I don't want potentially difficult topics to become no-go areas as creators become more and more afraid to screw up. Having said that, it's all in the handling - are they going to make this a story about slut shaming and sexual double standards and how they suck, or are they going to keep pretending this is all about Lydia having screwed up, Buffy season two style? I mean, it's not impossible or even unlikely that they will, so I totally get your concerns, bur so far I remain hopeful. I guess we'll see! Maybe in a couple of weeks' time I'll come crying to you in disappointment, but then again, MAYBE NOT :P
