Further proof that I am influenced by peer pressure if only when it comes to memes...

Everybody else is doing it.  And I have lots of pretty icons!  Go here and pick one out.  Give me the keyword.  I'll ramble about it for a bit.  Hopefully it'll be interesting.  Rinse, lather, repeat.  (I'm serious about the repeating.  Pick more than one.)

oh, wow, you're right (aka it makes perfect sense). i mean i obviously caught the VICTIMVICTIM in the rape storyline and in needs, but i think i never really connected the two because i was distracted by all the 'active' personalities in between.

come to think of it, is it just me or are the women in dollhouse particuarly weak? caroline has spirit but she's makes herself a victim by rushing in (at least in my opinion). and then if november isn't a pitiful character i don't know who is. maybe this is done to provide a really strong contrast with their 'active' personalities; to show how different the characters can be under imprint...but it still seems very problematic. maybe their treatment of newly-released november will let them present a strong real female and remedy the problem...?

...sorry for the random meta rambling. my turn to ask if it makes any sense!

No, I think you're absolutely right. The only strong woman on the show is Adelle, and she's so corrupt that of course that strength isn't a good thing. I would have no problem with her being so strong if only there was a good woman who was also strong, but this equates strength with evil too much for m liking.

I'm really hoping he'll do better with it in the next season. Maybe with Saunders/Whiskey?

No! I love meta rambling! Ramble away! And perfect sense, actually!
