Props to Joss for taking an unashamedly feminist stance, but it's safe. Women do say this stuff every day, even in the mainstream, where they're largely ignored - and at the media-light fringes where they are truly in danger, where they take more significant risk.

By the way, on the subject of rant, award of the day to CNN for narrating this snuff film with the love-story angle - because apparently this woman deserves some of the blame for the indignity she suffered, followed by her brutal murder. Or maybe for the story's righteous horror at the man taking cell-phone snaps. As we *watch* a film taken by another bystander who didn't intervene and sold his fucking film to CNN.
