1) Why should any legitimate interest in eliminating inequality be discounted because of the person it comes from? Let's all fight together to make the world more accurately represent diversity.

There is truth in what you speak, joke or not. The thing is a white woman who speaks up still gets more attention than a WOC who speaks up. Not only does she get the attention she gets the pat on the back for being "such a good person." No, there is nothing wrong with being an ally. Yet again, her speaking up is…

As a lesbian, my take on this is that there is a sizeable minority in every 'minority' social group who just gets off on attacking outsiders. They genuinely love it! I don't know if it's because they feel hard done-by and therefore they want to dismiss everyone outside the social group as 'against us', or if they…

Yeah man, I'm with you, burn the white devil at the stake for daring to not be a racist douche!!!!

If they allowed Nomi Malone on - aka the world's greatest, most talented and most erotic dancer - then they can let anyone on.

I'm pro-bidet, vehemently anti-wet wipe. I grew up in Brazil, so bidets were everywhere. As a child I would turn them on full blast to make an attractive bathroom fountain/water feature.

I don't think there is such a thing as being 'qualified' to agree or disagree. There is no coherent 'lesbian' experience that I'm sharing with other…

Yes yes yes yes yes yes yes x 100. The more I read Jezebel, the more I start to form the opinion that identity politics is incredibly toxic, divisive and self-defeating.

"This line of argument suggests that homophobia perpetrated by people of color is somehow worse because they should have known better as people who are also oppressed."

"Maybe it got in the way of gayness being all about Macklemore"?

This is perhaps a little tangential to what your post was about but am I the only LGBT'er that finds the whole "how to be a good ally" discourse to be so stupid, exclusionary and ultimately totally arbitrary? Some people are hypersensitive, some people are unusually laid back, some people float somewhere in the…

THANK YOU.

AAAAAA, I love this comment SO MUCH. You took the words right out of my mouth.
