Just watched 'S08E07 The Misinterpretation Agitation'
This was the most boring episodes of the season. And apparently Penny is only with Leonard because he harassed her into it. AND THAT IS OKAY and even considered a NICE thing to do and a symbol of his success!! It's okay to treat Penny like a trophy because girls like her objectify themselves. Oh but not if you're a female scientist, then you can enjoy freedom from harassment. And it's flat faced Amy, who would kill her own grandmother to get that level of attention, who is the one to teach us that lesson. Gaahhhhhh! It's like they are saying Penny deserves to be lumbered with Leonard because she uses her sexuality and it's okay because he's smart and deserves the pat on the back.
There is also nothing worse than a person who won't get the message either. It's so uncomfortable and depressing to be on the receiving end of that constant harassment and I'm sure most of us have experienced this at some point. It's not endearing.
Dev - I also don't like the way they bury Amy and Leonard's manipulative behaviour. The show sides with them all the time.
