It's finally finished! This is my longest and most complex video essay to date. It took a ridiculous amount of work and tons of time watching really really really bad movies. Just a heads up, this one does come with a content warning for discussion of, and media clips referencing, rape and sexual assault.
This video is part 1 of 2 and focuses on humor involving men sexually assaulting or harassing other men. I'll be examining media in which women are depicted as perpetrators in an upcoming episode.
If you are interested in my research, I'm keeping an ever expanding spreadsheet for TV shows that include jokes about the sexual abuse of men. I'm also curating a companion list of movies over on Letterboxd. Feel free to suggest other titles I should add.
As always, I couldn't make these videos without your continued support!
Thank you!
