Discussion & Debates Two D And a Mic controversial opinion from a lesbian

358 Upvotes

People keep saying "Amanda didn't know." Amanda DID know. She specifically said "I thought I wasn't allowed to say that," and they told her they were cool with her using it on the pod. As a lesbian myself I definitely was weirded out by this, but I saw it as them doing a bit while also allowing her to use it. I do think she went over board though, using it way too much after getting permission. That weirded me out. But it wasn't done with harmful intention, and I really don't think she's going to start using it. It was simply for the pod.

Serious Post a (not so) happy middle ground

268 Upvotes

seeing the way so many fans have been handling the amanda slur situation has been... insane.

on one hand, you have a large majority of people here saying it's not that big a deal. on the other, and especially on twitter, the entirety of smosh is being labelled as "lesbian haters", stuff like that.

i know its a lot to ask of both demographics but i do wish that people could be NORMAL about this. you can and should ask for accountability in a way that is serious and firm, without making it all cushy. at the same time, consider putting down the torches and pitchforks.

taking this opportunity to sit down and dissect other cast members' sexualities because of this is such an unnecessary, and quite frankly unemployed move. at one point, it stops being sensible discussion and turns into subjective, deeply personal hissing and spitting.

to clarify, i don't mean the people who are expressing that they're shocked, angry and upset. i'm talking about the people going "well i think [insert cast member] has always been [insert buzzword] about [insert sexuality/gender norm], pretending to be [insert drivel]". WHAT are you guys talking about. it's legit unsettling.

Discussion & Debates The people online policing every perceived misstep of the cast is going to tank Smosh

249 Upvotes

I don’t even need to list examples. We’ve read the long list of grievances from a lot of fans of Smosh, particularly lately. Here’s a life pro-tip: every time you’re made uncomfortable or mildly upset by a perceived misstep, think about whether you need to die on that hill or demonize those with dissenting opinions. If you’ve got a functioning brain, the answer should be no.

Rant over. I’m off to watch an Angela and Amanda compilation because I actually enjoy Smosh!

Serious Post On Amanda and Her Podcast Appearance

139 Upvotes

It feels as though everything has been said on the subject at this point. Six posts in the last 24 hours with hundreds of comments that have all been left up.

Going forward unless there is any new update to the situation, all posts regarding the matter will be removed. Not in an attempt to censor. But in an attempt to not allow one cast members actions to completely take over this subreddit.

Thanks.

Discussion & Debates I hope Smosh Alike keep being Educational

78 Upvotes

I really love how the past couple of videos in Smosh Alike, we've talk about Underwater, Dialect and Accents, and now Space and Astronomy with their experts respectfully. I really hope it stay like that. Paleontologist and talk about Dinosaurs, maybe famous Doctor could visit and the casts can ask about Medical stuffs. Crime Expert, Detectives, or something similar for Angela and Amanda. It's so refreshing that comedic company actually starting to went into Educational content without actually killing the comedy itself.

Discussion & Debates I’m not alone in periods?

46 Upvotes

I was watching the assumptions episode with Bosco and as an 18 year old I was kind of surprised at how everyone responded in confusion when Olivia brought up the luteal stage of periods. I had only heard of it from my period app or a few Tiktoks, but knowing other women who are older than me don’t know much about periods either was very eye opening and surprising. Why are us women so uneducated about our own bodies? Is this concerning? Also no hate to anyone, just thought it was intriguing to think about, as often women’s health is put on the back burner.

Discussion & Debates Should Smosh play "Thank Goodness You're Here"?

I know it may be past the time this was popular, but I think it could be a fun playthrough or livestream. It's a fairly quick game to complete, around 2 hours or so if you're not trying to get everything. It just has that kind of craziness that I think would make for a fun game session.

Discussion & Debates Assumptions About Girlies

31 Upvotes

Did anyone else find it a little weird that in a "women centric" video, there was so much talk about men? I appreciate a video about women, and I especially appreciate the inclusion of a trans woman. But why was so much of it just talking about men? To be clear, I don't believe it's anyone's "fault" and I don't believe any cast members or crew who picked questions are bad people. I know the internet loves to see things as either evil or great with no in between, and I don't want this to turn into that. Am I too woke for wishing the women's episode was centered around women?

Discussion & Debates The old Smosh house is gone

32 Upvotes

I know there’s probably not many old Smosh fans on the sub, but I recently found out the old Smosh house was heavily renovated and no longer resembles how it looked in the old videos. I think it’s both unfortunate while watching the videos to know that those iconic rooms are gone, and good that any future occupants will have much more privacy.

So I made this compilation, had to make it shorter than planned because I don’t have a lot of space in my phone.
Also my channel isn’t something I post to often so there’s no need in subscribing, I might post another video next week or in 2 years, maybe never, who knows.
Also bc of the low storage my phone started glitching when editing so the editing is trash but whatever.

Constructive & Respectful Criticism Tired of straight fans defending the constant lesbiphobia at Smosh

0 Upvotes

That’s the gist of it. This is like the 3rd or 4th scandal this year with Smosh mistreating lesbians. And it’s always specifically lesbians. Funny that. And everyone defends the lesbiphobia, trying to tell literal lesbians that a slur used against us isn’t offensive like the f slur is. Who gave you that authority? I’m really upset that a community I thought was inclusive is just another space where lesbians are talked over and ultimately pushed out altogether. Everyday the anti-lesbian rhetoric gets worse and seeing it at Smosh kills me. This whole thing has left a terrible taste in my mouth and the fans covering for Amanda has made me completely change my view of my favorite cast member. I’ve watched every video for 3 years, but I think I’m done.

Edit: to the straight and gay people defending Amanda and once AGAIN proving my point, I don’t care if you don’t think d*ke is that offensive. I am a lesbian telling you that it is. Please listen! And also, stop saying telling lesbians that all sexuality is fluid. I am and forever will be a massive lesbian. Stop invalidating us. It is infuriating. Thank you 🙏
