A couple of young guys, one blonde, the other dark-haired, friends of the main-character gymnast, hang around the periphery of the story, cracking wise, but also cheering wholeheartedly during the girls' competitions. One of these boys is clearly smitten with one of the other girls, a prototypical bitch (as played by Vanessa Lengies; the boy is played John Patrick Amedori, see photo).
In fact, the blond boy calls her a bitch to her face. She asks the other one, the dark-haired boy who’s smitten with her, “Do you think I’m a bitch?” He answers, “No, I mean, yeah, but I don’t have a problem with that, unlike some other guys.” (Glancing at his buddy.)
The girl proceeds to invite herself to his prom, tells him when and where to pick her up and not to forget to buy her a corsage, then turns on her heel, gymnastically, and prances away. Blonde guy tells his friend, “Dude, you are so whipped!”
His friend answers, “What is wrong with that—ever?”
And blonde guy, as if actually thinking over this macho putdown for the first time in his life, nods his head in agreement, like, Yeah, what is wrong with being whipped?
Just a question. Any comments?

Im going to check this movie out and i'll lyk what i think of it, soundsa very interesting!
Very cool. I always thought that being whipped was an endearing thing. It feels good to be whipped too, to be so smitten that you would do anything she says.
The only guys that have a problem with being whipped are single macho guys who are hanging out at a sausage party of Friday night.
But hey, at least they're not whipped, right?

Patrick, I gotta know, what's a sausage party?
Seriously, Mark? Maybe it is an outdated term now. A sausage party is when you hanging out with a bunch of guys and not a woman in sight. I'm sure you get the idea.
In some contexts that is appropriate but if it's a regular occurrence then they might want to rethink how they treat women. A guy who is whipped will always have female company, right?

Patrick - It's not the term that is outmoded, I'm thinking, but me, for not knowing it. I do know that whenever I get the feeling that I'm in one of those overgrown frat party beer commercial-type settings, I can't get out of there fast enough. Thanks for broadening my vocabulary.

Of course nothing is wrong with that, if you enjoy it.
I wish all people could live the life they would like to live. If that means being "whipped", great.
I would not condemn other relationship styles, but having a submissive man at my beck and call is wonderful. And he agrees. :o)
