Well I went 'Oh hey latex... yawn', 'oh hey Madonna... again', 'oh hey girls on top and possessing the space of a phallic dominator... well at least I'm not watching repeats of Friends on E4.'
And interwar Europe, clumsy fascinating fascism, (aside from eroticising imagery of suffering and cruelty and the exoticising of cultural and historical zone be a big American company and rich white girl) it's not actually critical of oppressive relationships, is it? It's more like 'I want to take my turn being an emotional abuser now.'
But then again, it is insipid, it is trash culture and nobody has to take the good bits or bad bits as seriously as I do. They're meant to buy it with their pocket money and then grow out of it in three years time. C'est la vie.
