    I hope for Sarah's sake that this tape doesn't exist. It's a lot harder for a woman to bounce back after a "sex scandal" than it is for a man. Hopefully as a comedian she'd be able to turn it into some awesome jokes.

    @IBleedGlitter: The High Priestess of Tinsel: you're kidding right? When it comes to sex tapes it is completely beneficial for the woman. Look at Pamela Anderson, Kim Kardashian and Paris Hilton. How many women's careers have been ruined by them?

    @thePrototype: Yeah, I was just about to say, who really paid attention to Kim K. pre sex tape?
    In hollywood, it's generally not a bad thing.

    @thePrototype: Of course their careers flourished in the wake of their sex tapes. However, in the case of Pam Anderson, her image was already sexualized. Hilton and Kardashian are pretty much only known for being ostensibly sexy.

    Has anyone spoken of Rob Lowe's sex tape lately? It didn't exactly tarnish his career.

    @thePrototype: I get what you're saying, but didn't those women not really have careers to ruin? The last two really got popular after/because of their sex tapes, and Pamela Anderson's helped her because she was already defined in terms of sex.

    I don't think it'll hurt Silverman that much, if at all, but I'm not all sure those three women are the right examples. Though I admit I never pay much attention to them so I could be wrong.

    @IndignationCoordinator: Thanks, you said what I was trying to, but much better! It's true that Hilton and Kardashian are much more well known after their sex tapes came out, but now it seems like no matter what they do (not that they've cured cancer or gone to Mars or anything) people will always bring it back to the sex tape. No one really does that for men. Both Colin Ferrell and Rob Lowe have had sex tapes that no one even really talks about anymore.
    Basically what I'm saying is that you can bounce back from a sex tape if you're a woman, but only if you're ok with just being a sex symbol.

    This would suck for Sarah, but she's awesome and unapologetic. I don't think it will negatively affect her career. Plus, she's beautiful and has nothing to hide. Go Sarah!

    Okay, kids, grandma here has an observation. I personally still imagine all home recordings being done with giant honking cameras with full-sized VHS tapes slipped into the side. But I have a feeling that in these less innocent post-VCR days most of these sex tapes are probably sex DVDs. It's kind of charming that outdated technology is living on in our vocabulary.

    I wish America could get over its' sexual double-standards; Women's areolas are "obscene" and men's aren't. Thongs on a beach are illegal here, but legal there... The fact that there's ANY controversy over breast-feeding in public.

    This tug-of-war titillation only serves to commoditize sex and manipulate prices in a market that wouldn't exist if people had a more mature view of nudity.

    America, Land of the Vulgar Prude.

    I really hope the emphasis of this story changes soon. Sure, a discussion of 'to watch or not to watch' and why and who will and who won't has it's place. But I think it's pretty damn important to discuss the disgusting sleaze ball pervert who thought it was ok tape a women naked without her consent. Isn't this, oh I dunno, Against The Law, and morally bankrupt?Also, holy shit I feel badly for this woman. I feel badly enough for women who pose nude willingly and then regret it down the road when theyre published without consent etc. This woman had NO IDEA she was being filmed. I can't imagine what that would do to your sense of privacy and security.

    Deadspin trying to claim that Erin Andrews isn't a sex object? The same Deadspin that posts screencaps of her ass as she's walking out of a dugout or the Deadspin that makes endless balls-on-chin jokes when she was hit with a baseball?

    Their constant coverage of everything Erin Andrews has been a MAJOR factor in framing her as a popular internet sex object sports celebrity, just like they did with Allison Stokke.

    Awful tough to get self-righteous about it after the fact.

    I just take serious issue with Deadspin's sudden shift from blatantly objectifying her as a sex object last week to now milking the other side of the Erin Andrews Pageview Express by wagging their finger and claiming moral superiority.

    Like bluebears said, It's all faux outrage.
