10 Dumbest Decisions In Werewolf Movies
10. Unprotected Sex - Ginger Snaps
This werewolf flick from 2000 dared to do so many different things. For starters, the main monster was in fact a teenage girl – using lycanthropy as a metaphor for sisterhood, female sexuality and puberty.
When Ginger (who most definitely does do some snapping in the film) gets bitten by a werewolf, she becomes more aggressive and sexually active. As well as sprouting a tail of course. As she becomes more interested in the hanky panky, she seduces and sleeps with her classmate Jason.
Whilst this isn’t outwardly a problem, it’s revealed that they didn’t use protection and thus Jason gets infected with the beastly curse. Perhaps seen as a metaphor for sexually transmitted diseases, this endangers Jason and spreads the curse around the town of Bailey Downs.
Luckily, Jason is cured of being a supernatural furry, but the point still stands: unprotected sex is never a good idea.
Always wrap before you tap guys, especially if there’s a werewolf involved.
