Here is described as a 'Chick Flick' Why??????????

I have not read the book or had any wish to see the film, but what is all this hype surrounding 'Fifty Shades of Grey'?

As far as I can see it is nothing more than a mild form of porn, which is now showing to be such a problem amongst our young.

I couldn't get past the first page of the sample on my kindle and can't get past the first couple of comments on this thread. Yawn!!!

One of the worst films I've seen in my life and I sat through Smokin' Aces.

Absolute garbage from start to finish.

Would not bother to reads the book if it were given to me or watch the film either. he reviews I have read it is risible.

[anotheoldgit]

A totally difference response about this book/film, from the two examples I outlined previously. WHY????

/// all the concern shown on here about Page Three Girls, or even the scanty clad females in the side bar of the Daily Mail web site. ///

What the heck?

[tonyav]

A protest with a difference, Jim ;-)

[jim360]

Well if there was a point to it, it beats me.

[tonyav]

Well you got me whipped with that reply, Jim.

aog - i don't think there was much concern about page 3 was there? As far as i recall most people on here thought it outdated, but that's about it.
As for DM sidebar - i think the problem is more their hypocritical stance on (for example) prince A being a paedophile, whilst at the same time talking in very sexual language about 12 year olds

There's alot of hype, but I don't think anyone is actually praising it AOG.

Anyone remember 9 1/2 weeks? it's just that for the 21st century.
Drivel.
