I can't consider a site that says it's OK to call a little girl a cunt or post a video of a woman getting rapped feminist or blatantly having racist views a feminist site. Sorry.

I don't get the comment system promotion at all and their shitty explanation is shitty. I'd been commenting on gawker sites for years under various names (even back when they had to approve you first). Then I was grey. Then I was black. Now I'm grey again. I give up; I don't even give a shit anymore. Especially of…
Something weird happened to me today too. So my posts on Jezebel always post grey, needing to be promoted, but on Gawker I used to post black right away and were always near the top of the page, even when they hadn't been promoted. But today, all my comments posted gray and when I went back to the articles to see…
What the hell?? I missed that completely, when was that?
Google still lists it as a feminist blog (of course, I know that google isn't the be all and end all of information sources and probably just not up to date), and the general mentality across the internet is that it is a feminist site.
Question Jezebel, as you are…
THANK YOU for posting this. I don't know what the heck is up. I was given non-gray status pretty quickly after I started posting on the site and then last week, for no apparent reason (and none I can think of), I was suddenly banished back to the gray. I don't understand it at all since I am a hardcore feminist and…
I agree. This pile on is grossing me out and turning me off this site. From what I've known of Jezebel, this vitriol towards someone is uncharacteristic and mean-spirited. In the weekly gossip column, the author mentioned how gross America's obsession with Amanda Bynes is, so I'm continually surprised and disappointed…
Agreed. The gray is killing my ability to have a discussion with people. I NEVER have good, fun discussions on here anymore.
The only people who I've read saying Jez isn't feminist are people who are upset about some topic in the blog or threads. I still consider it a feminist site, though some of the trends mentioned here have bothered me: body-snarking (definitely out the window), mean-spirited comments, and me being all grey all the…
I completely agree with you, and all the other posters on this thread.
I am with BKBXDC on this one. Back in the day I would have made Amanda look positively normal (what with my self-loathing, dating-dangerous men who assaulted/abused me, heavy alcohol consumption - often whilst being on anti-depressants - culminating with spectacular events like living in my parents mold-ridden…
When I see her I always think of the movie "Center Stage". She always looks beautiful on the red carpet, kudos to her stylist.
I love how excited everyone is to see her. Clive Owen's date (or wife) in particular. She is just a big ball of mirth.
This is sad for many reasons but at least he was the only victim of his hatred and violence and not others. Take note mass murderers of the world.
We thought we knew how good we had it during the Davies/Tenant era. Now we KNOW how good we had it.
Kinda related, or not, I just think it's cute...
I really want to make a kiddie porn joke but I feel like it would be lost on most people.
As I mentioned to another commenter (Michael) Taye Diggs, with singing/b'way experience, should take on this role.
I dunno: Taye Diggs would be suuuuuuuuuuuuch a good prince/wolf! Give it to him!
Meryl Streep has been cast as the fast-singing, garden-obsessed Witch
Disney's depiction of Mulan in the princess canon was always particularly grating, since they dressed her up in all the fancy match-maker gear from the beginning of the movie. Not only is she not a princess (shes a fucking soldier), but half the crux of the movie is that she HATES dressing up in all that stuff because…
