Formulated an opinion of show without every seeing it.

Yep.

Its funny how most of criticism of the show is centered around the main character being "fat" and "ugly". People are quoting an earlier post as being soooo awesome...its not. Its pathetically shallow and uninformed. If the main character of the show was Jermima Kirke (Jessa on the show) and it was her being shown nude, these people wouldn't have a problem with the show. They certainly wouldn't have any anomosity towards it, which is an obvious tone in their posting. Them not being attracted to her = her being a fat disgusting whore. I'm sorry that she does not have a glamorous naked body like you have grown so used to seeing on television and jerk off to in the shower but that is not a legit knock on the show.
Oh and "fat disgusting whore" and "token black guy" have a scene together where they are arguing about him being a black republican and where he destroys her notions of what she thinks it means to black. I thought it was daring and intelligent dialogue. Like I said before, the show DOES NOT glorify these girls actions or thoughts on society, it tears them down. But the show has "sex driven, gay, liberal agenda" and you cant to FAP her tits so it sucks.
