Sensitive Joss Whedon news that I missed:

Have you ever noticed how many “male feminists” turn out to be complete scumbags? Joss Whedon became a feminist ally for doing a TV show about a girl who kills vampires while the boys stand around and swoon. But Whedon lost a lot of clout after his ex-wife Kai Cole accused him of having multiple affairs with his actresses. She didn’t name any of the women, but it’s notable that not a single woman who has ever worked with Whedon stepped forward to defend him.

Certainly not Gal Gadot. For months she’s been claiming that Whedon was verbally abusive to her on the set of Justice League, and she just told Elle magazine more about it:

“You’re dizzy because you can’t believe this was just said to you. And if he says it to me, then obviously he says it to many other people... Would he tell me what he told me had I been a man? I don’t know... But my sense of justice is very strong. I was shocked by the way that he spoke to me.”

I believe her, but I want to know what Whedon said to her. Leaving it to our imaginations doesn’t do him any favors. He once said he wanted a politician he hated to be raped to death with a rhino’s horn, so he doesn’t lack for imagination when it comes to fantasies of sexual violence.

She should’ve kicked his ass. But then again, that’s probably what he wants from a woman in a superhero costume.
