Jenna Marbles on how to get ready for a date

I'm really not a fan of her. I've seen her essentially do this schtick a couple of times and it just shows contempt for women, contempt for men and a generally horrible outlook on life.

She goes on and on about how fake makeup is and dressing in a sexual manner.

And yet she always wears makeup and is a model.

So... you know.

In her previous videos there's been speculation as to the level of irony/self-mocking/disguised bitterness she is displaying.

I feel she's a smart cookie who's saying that while doing a job that requires being eye-candy isn't necessarily at odds with her parodying that situation or the views that men might arrive at based upon her looks or gender expectations of women generally.

Basically I don't think the videos would be that less abrasive or funny if she was some buttoned-up feminist cutting loose. Ultimately no one has enough info about which to conclude if she's being unduly hypocritical or as you say merely spewing contempt and anger.

Yeah, her contempt for objectification does sort of clash with her chosen profession of being an object. There's no sarcasm or parody detectable in her photospreads, they're indistinguishable from any other young model who's trying to look like a piece of meat.

Still, these are quite funny and perceptive. I think she's doing more good with these videos than she is doing harm with her generic bimbo photoshoots.

She likes having her cake and eating it? If I make an ironic video about how to dress/act like a misogynistic douchebag does that give me license to be one?

W/e, college is expensive. If making these vids helps her feel better about making money to look prty then so be it. Maybe one day she'll do something rly worthwhile with her apparent smarts.

Hot body = Between $5(hairspray) and $10,000 (boob job)
Sharp Wit = Between free (born with it) or $500-$10,000 (hiring a professional writer)
The ability to recognize the irony of the situation you are in and make the most of it = PRICELESS

*all costs are based upon personal experience (fuck you...i have a gf and yes, i do the shopping so i buy hairspray) and educated guesses (boobs must cost a lot?).

**I am totally guessing on what a writer would charge. Do they charge per joke? It's not like she has a team of Letterman writers working for her. Besides..he would totally bang that.

***I think this lady knows exactly what she is doing. Whatever word you use to describe her...it keeps you talking about her and it keeps her making money because of it.
