the blonde woman from "girls behaving badly" Chelsea something  

post #1 of 18
Thread Starter 
i was flipping through the channels the other night, left it on the comedy channel while i got up to go to the bathroom. when i came back out, she was running her mouth (i didnt even know she had her own show now) and she was talking about how there is a debate over cricumcision now. she said she didnt think it should be the parent's choice, but the choice of the girl who would be B!*wing it in 15 years.

this is wrong on so many levles. first off, i'll agree it shouldnt be the parent's choice, let the boy decide when he's an adult. secondly she's advocating sexual relations for 15 year olds!!! thridly, she is perpetuating the drivel that there is somethign wrong with a normal penis.

grrrrrrrr

There must be a place where people can give feedback to her. Maybe we all should send her 'we are so sorry you don't know what you are missing not having sex with intact guy' - card.

ummm unless I am missing something, I read that as 'do not circ your kid, let them make that choice in the future'.....



I don't see that as Pro-Circ, unless there is stuff left out?


As for in 15 years..... sadly she is really just speaking the truth. Kids today need to be prepared with information bout sex. Not 'Don't do it' speach that I received as a teen.


Anyways. If it is a comedy show, it seems to me that she is preaching Anti-Circ saying that it is not the parents choice, regardless of the medium she is using, or the clutter she is putting around it.


Just my 2¢

nooo, it definately wasn't. she was more like saying that normal penies are digusting, and that cut ones are the only appealing ones. i guess you woulda had to see her face. she was saying implying that a child who was left whole would never be able to enjoy sex, becuase there was something wrong with an intact penis.

does anyone know her whole name? she is in this pic...

Well, it's horrible that it was a pro-circ message, but I don't see it as advocating sex for 15 year olds. She's just speaking honestly. I don't know of a 15 year old that hasn't done something sexually. Most have already had oral sex.

She is a comedian, and usually offending someone in her lines. Have you watched her show? I mean more than once? She's pretty raw in everything she does.

The Chelsea Handler Show.

Chelsea Handler:
was born in Livingston, New Jersey to a Jewish father and a Mormon mother, Chelsea is the youngest of six children…all good material for a career in comedy. Chelsea has toured the country doing stand-up and was featured at the Montreal Comedy Festival as well as this past year's HBO's Comedy Arts Festival in Aspen. She's since settled in Los Angeles where she can be seen at the Comedy Store and The Laugh Factory talking about the trials and tribulations of dating and drinking.
Chelsea has starred in several independent films and has made many guest-star appearances such as Reno 911, Last Call with Carson Daly, Spy TV, My Wife and Kids, The Bernie Mac Show, and David E. Kelley's, The Practice. Her stand-up has been televised on Vh1's Love Lounge, Comedy Central's Premium Blend, and HBO's broadcast of the Aspen Comedy Festival. She just released her first collection of short stories published in 2005 by Bloomsbury, entitled, MY HORIZONTAL LIFE: A COLLECTION OF ONE-NIGHT STANDS. Her latest gig is being a correspondent for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno.
Visit Chelsea's website www.chelsea-handler.com to find out more.
Chelsea's Favorite Prank: 'Fetal Attraction'…"I wore a pregnancy suit and convinced make-up artists to do full body make-up on me for the birth of my baby, so I'd look hot in the birthing video! In addition, I enjoy any bits where I get to talk dirty."

Perhaps it comes from the one nights stands: she found intact fellows with lacking hygeine.

I'm feeling guilty now for enjoying it. It's comedy. I've heard her commenting on the penises and wasn't offended even as anti-circ as I am.
