This video is a response to The Day the Laughter Stopped. We discussed the story in a skype chat as we read it, and Jess Kay wrote an insightful review of it, both published on the Honey Badger Brigade blog in April of this year. http://honeybadgerbrigade.com/2014/04/26/badger-talk-all-roads-lead-to-rape/ http://honeybadgerbrigade.com/2014/04/27/all-roads-lead-to-rape/ I kept thinking how ridiculous the portrayal of female hypoagency was, how melodramatic and stilted. How would that same behavior look - feeling averse, thinking about one's aversion, but saying nothing and allowing oneself to be acted upon - if it were applied to anything other than a story about sex? That's where the om-nom cake part of the skype discussion came from. When the subject is cake instead of affection, the ridiculousness becomes blatantly obvious. Huge thanks to Alien Gearbox for the animation and composition. :)
