I would argue that using sexuality as an attack on a person is particularly offensive.

Did you somehow miss what I said? That he perpetuates the ideas that (1) there is not an overpopulation problem and (2) that animal shelters kill animals out of bloodlust.
Leggings are fine but judgmental fat shamers who arbitrarily hate on clothes because they are afraid some chubbette might be comfortable and show her curves are not. Get over it.
Exactly. You can comment on my cellulite if you really feel you must. I know it's there, it's not news to me. It's been there since I was 21 years old and it's not leaving any time soon. But you know what? It's only on the back of my lower body. I can't see it unless I go out of my way to look. It might as well not…
BUT STILL BE HOT!!! (Within the confines of these rules, of course.)
saw this on facebook, love it
God, I hate you puritanical assholes.
And 27 per cent believed ladies should stop shopping in 'younger' clothes stores like Topshop and Miss Selfridge once they reach their early forties.
What the fuck is wrong with people?!?? If you can't afford your lavish, $200/plate wedding without expecting your guests to pay for it, then don't fucking have a lavish, $200/plate wedding, you spoiled, entitled, pathetic brats.
A pox on all people who think that the amount given at a wedding should match the 'per head' cost of that wedding. A massive pox.
Yes! Thank you.
But see, that's not how studies work - you don't build comparisons into the study, you run two studies identical studies with different demographics and compare them. Some researchers do this simultaneously, some do it chronologically (like the author of the study above seems to be doing), but combining demographics…
Ugh, I hate articles like this on Jezebel.
From the Washington Post article:
That's fine for you, I guess, but it's fairly easy for me to just use the word "they" if someone does not disclose their gender preference. If someone purposefully uses neutral words to describe themselves, their partners, or their relationships, I am conscious of that and will alter my language so as not to possibly…
The funniest part is that he seems to take for granted that everyone else thinks the same way he does about gender! It's like gloating to your friends about how you found stacks of CDs on sale at Best Buy for super cheap, and then having your friends tell you that they all stopped using CDs years ago and Apple doesn't…
If someone is purposefully avoiding gender pronouns, wouldn't you assume that they are doing so for a reason?
There are lots of ways you can incorporate gender-free pronouns without having to resort to "he or she." I have several genderqueer friends who prefer the pronoun "they" - which is actually super easy to adapt, as is "partner", "person", "their", "zie", "one's", "folks," etc.
"I would ask that letter writers not just avoid using gendered pronouns but openly draw our attention to the issue," he writes. "Please say, 'I am purposefully not using the pronouns "he" and "she" because I think they are wrongfully narrow.'"
I don't have a question, I just wanted to say thank you for doing this.
When I was 16, I was part of a LGBT youth center. The very first trans-woman I met was amazingly kind to me. I met her before she transitioned and had come out. When she did come out, she took the time to sit down and answer allll my stupid,…
