Found an article on my flist pertaining to Dean, and it caused me to literally snort Mountain Dew through my nose. Still, from a psychological standpoint, I agree with some of it. Not all of it, mind you... Just a few points here and there.
"I'm growing a little worried about Dean. At first, his seemingly juvenile obsession with porn and sex was amusing, a harmless little hobby. But lately, it's taking on a disturbing new tone."
I'm currently living with someone like this, and they're in their late fifties. Now, considering the fact that Dean is now in his thirties, they've got a point; it is indeed a bit worrisome, but if you take into account that these boys are currently, y'know, hunting demons and the like, I honestly don't think Dean's little obsession with sex should be taken seriously. He's still able to concentrate on that which is most important when it's needed.
Also, did they ever stop to think that this new tone is caused by the time he spent in Hell?
"In last night's episode of Supernatural, Dean proudly boasted that three of the female cheerleaders at the high school they were investigating were legal. If he discovered this through some normal method, it might be OK, but since he was snooping in the principal's office for dead kids, it means he actively chose to seek out the ages of the cheerleaders. It was a funny line, but it's also kind of gross."
Alright, granted... That was a bit "gross." Even I was shocked and slightly grossed out when he said it. Still, at least he made sure they were legal. A sex addict wouldn't care about the age; all they care about is getting laid in whatever way they possibly can.
So, yeah... Me thinks they were being a little too analytical there.
"If that's not enough, the flashbacks also let us know that, even in high school, he was calling his female teachers “sugar” and hooking up with multiple girls in the janitor's closet. I think it's about time someone sat him down and had an intervention."
Harmones. That's all I've got to say about that.
"Dean Winchester is a sexaholic. He loves sex and porn, thinking about sex and porn, and talking about sex and porn. If you had to list Dean's three favorite things in the world, two of them would be breasts."
Dean's a little bit obsessed with it, yes. But he is - by no means - a sexaholic. Look up the term, people...
"My bigger question is whether this is the writers' little joke, or is it a reflection of what Jensen Ackles brings to the role? That may sound silly, but on another sci-fi series, The X-Files, Fox Mulder had a bit of a porn obsession. As we now know, David Duchovny went on to star in Californication and checked himself into rehab for sex addiction."
Now, this - THIS - is the part where I snorted my Mountain Dew. It requires quite a bit of nerve to write something such as this, and it left me feeling absolutely appalled. Jensen has never done anything to suggest that he's a "sexaholic," and for someone to have the audacity to say that he is should be enough to qualify them for being forced to take a class on the subject.
"Not only did he play a sex addict on TV, but he really was one. I'm not saying Jensen is necessarily like his character in this respect, but Dean's porn and sex obsession is becoming a bit over the top. At least we know he draws the line somewhere: at gay S&M sex."
How the hell would you know? Maybe Chief just wasn't "his type?" *rolls eyes*
"Next week, it looks like Dean's sex drive will go into overdrive when Supernatural brings on sexy siren strippers who convince men to do their bidding. Hopefully a bad sexual encounter with strippers will be just what the doctor ordered to calm down Dean's libido."
*headdesk*
The stupidity of people truly knows no bounds...
