My feeling is, if you are sufficiently ignorant of history and context to the point where you say things that are indistinguishable from things an actual bigot might say, your lack of awareness isn’t really a defense against the accusation.

I’m voting for Madeleine’s “Becoming Ugly.”

I went through the same thing, and feel your pain so clearly. I am so ashamed that I couldnt see what was happening and I’m ashamed that I feel...ashamed. I hate being alive as a woman, now more than ever.

I learned the hard way that the male friends whose favor I worked so hard to earn would turn on me a minute after I broke up with my long-term, near-marriage boyfriend, in spite of the fact that we were all mutual friends for roughly the same amount of time. It was painful and I was alone during a very difficult time…

Mayonnaise on everything and subjugating brown people.

You want people to move to places where they have somewhat decent healthcare and jobs to places that have neither?

I work in a warehouse, and the emotional strength I have to have to brush off every sexist comment I get is staggering :/ I had a a KID ask me if I needed help with the forklift....

I could go on and on about how naive you are but I’ll go ahead and give you some anecdotal evidence to chew on. I am a woman, I am strong in all aspects of my being. Every single one of my coworkers are men, and I can do every single one of their jobs, and then some. In fact, I often do that!!! I earn, on average, $5…

i told my dad that at my new job my starting pay is $12:48 and that even though the pay is low it has great benefits, he replied “ great benefits, thats just code for not paying you enough to live and have all your needs met. you’re an adult, you should be paid enough to make you’re own decisions about what you do…

Yeah, I was aware of that, but just did not put forth enough effort to fully elaborate. Yes, many men feel threatened when women enter their spheres. Also, many women are uncomfortable entering male-dominated work places such as warehouses. This might be irrational, but I can understand that mindset.

I’ve never identified with a Jezebel post so much. I’ve been single for 15 years (I’m 30), not for lack of trying. I’ve given up trying to talk to my friends and family about how much it sucks and how much I’d love to have a partner because the reply is invariably “try harder. Lose weight. Join a club. Lower your…

Its fucking awesome right? It’s the first thing my boyfriend and I ever watched, thank you jezebel, when we netflixed and chilled two years ago. And we watched the currents eps and it was still -amazing-!

They’re scheduled to wake up 4 months before landing, so it’s like being on a floating cruise ship.

This is Us: I like it just fine. It does not make me cry. In fact, I almost avoided it completely because of all of the threats of bringing me to tears.

But if you’re still jonesing for Resting JLaw Acting Face, create your own homebrew version by standing in front of a mirror and trying to remember the last eleven places you put your car keys.

It’s not up to Margaret Cho to alleviate Tilda Swinton’s white guilt. It’s not her job. She is not Representative Asian #4. If Swinton had mixed feelings, she has the money to avoid the role and choose something else. Once she chose to move forward and do the role, then who is benefiting from those guilt feelings,…

Yeah, it was still not okay to seek out an Asian person you don’t know to have the white person guilt convo, and that is really how it looks to me. She joked about it afterward, but the feelings of having to hear/witness/be asked to be in that conversation must have been maddening.
