Who Are You To Judge?

Though I very much appreciate Emily Jensen's witty and scathing review of my feature entitled BUMPS, I take issue with her criticism of the "...bitchy, horny Catholic High schoolgirls WHO AREN'T EVEN HOT..."

I am very sorry Ms. Jensen has such negative body image and poor self-esteem to call out these actors for not being "HOT" enough for her standards. But that's her problem. It shouldn't be foisted upon talented young women working hard to learn their craft. They need constructive criticism, not denigrating, negative feedback.

Perhaps Ms. Jensen should spend less time on hotornot.com and more time gaining life experience in order to develop some depth as a human being.
