No Lifetime, I Will Not Keep An Open Mind About Your Pregnancy Movie

Hi, Lifetime, remember me?  Hi!

So I guess you guys saw that article about a group of girls in Gloucester MA who had a pregnancy pact, only they didn't, and the whole thing became another "girls are too stupid to be trusted to have sex" campaign instead of a "maybe if we, oh, I don't know, taught something other than abstinence we wouldn't have Nancy Travis Butterfacing Me?"

You did, huh?

See I'm all for movies about how we need more sex ed. And Camryn Manheim is a really cool lady who campaigned hard for Feminist Majority and marches in Washington for choice. I'm all for movies about teen sex. I make movies about teens. And sex. But I am 200% against movies about how girls are silly and need protection from themselves and have no idea about anything. I do not like hysteria pretending to be good parenting. And I really hate those fracking ads at The Americana with the girls doing a THE CRAFT Lite sexy stare. I hate this movie, Lifetime, and I haven't seen it. I want my Mannequin remake and I want John Hughes back. Sincerely, Me.
