yeah thats why i said "id just assume" not "i think"

also, youre really mixing up provocative with patriarchal and thats unfortunate.

anyway, simple misunderstanding. cheers

edit - my issue isnt with the decision or the details as they are given, its of this being a post in a sub i love. i'll edit my comment to say "id have just"

    "I'd just assume" unprompted is functionally the same as "I think"; nobody first asked you "well if you had to assume, what would've happened?" We're all adults here; we all understand what words mean.

    And I used "provocative" because you're directly implying a form of patriarchical censorship for inherently one of two reasons or some combination: the patriarchical system 1) thinks it's too provocative or 2) thinks it's too superfluous, and (2) isn't per se patriarchy; reasonable minds can differ on whether the scene merited inclusion. I'm sure it wasn't like that scene from The Room where they make a big deal out of Mark's clean-shaven face; I'm sure the protein filaments growing out of Robbie's armpits weren't the nominal objective of the scene. Thus I assumed you were referring to the only one that's strictly, inherently patriarchical for which there wouldn't be a more plausible explanation.
