Rabbitholed #60: Olivia Wilde's "Gaslight, Gatekeep, Girlboss" Feminism Unravels

Things would so much easier if her life pre-wokeness was not such a landmine of cozying up to rapists and suggesting prostitution be legalized with cross-eyed, mute hookers.

Today’s Rabbithole:

The year was 2012. The 28-year-old stone-cold knockout beauty Olivia Wilde had just taken the microphone on stage at Joe’s Pub and began a roiling monologue to an audience that included her charismatic new lover, the Saturday Night Live funnyman Jason Sudeikis.

Two years earlier, her now boyfriend Harry Styles had just made his world debut on X Factor at the tender age of 16.

“I would like to legalize prostitution,” a randy Wilde told the crowd in what was supposed to be an off-the-record affair. “Hiring a sex worker in Olivia Land would be as easy, hygienic, and inexpensive as getting a pedicure. That way when away on business or just not in the mood, we could just hire a hooker for our loved one and keep them uninterested in cheating and keep them satisfied. These particular hookers would obviously have to be mute and possibly cross-eyed.”

Oh no, Olivia. Oh no, no, no.
