The key is that they’re *arrested* at a lower rate. Not that they commit it less.

Yes. I do think nobody would’ve said anything. (What a weird sentence.) My sister and I were left in toy aisles and libraries and parks when we were 6 and 4, and nobody ever approached us. And sure—a 4 year old is different than a 2 year old—but that’s as far back as I remember. So it may have been happening when I…
Yep—It felt like it was riding Argo’s coattails—but it failed to have the genuinely entertaining aspect that Argo had (as well as the happy ending). J Law was good in it—she’s a good actress—but she was still miscast.
I mean, he’s better than the last guy. But not substantially different from John Paul II. So...
Yeah—let’s not reward progress unless everyone in the world is 100% perfect and open minded in every way! Calling people who are actively trying to change their communities for the better bigots is the best way to effect change. Good thinking.
I think it’s pretty naive to suggest that Diane Sawyer or Oprah Winfrey weren’t helped into a broadcasting career by being part of pageants. Are these women participating in a system that objectifies women? Certainly. But they’re playing the game the best they know how in a society that objectifies young women as a…
I have a friend who got his girlfriend pregnant in high school. They were super Baptist, so he married her—then it came out that she had been fucking her step brother the whole time. The baby was (is) my friend’s, though. He got custody, and pretty much raised the kid by himself.
He didn’t say that the athletes are equal to the athletes in men’s sports—he said that the games/matches were just as entertaining. Reading comp 101.
I think my problem with him centers around this defense of him—that he’s just a kid who has read a lot. I call bullshit. He’s a kid who HASN’T read a lot, but insists on telling everyone he has. Very few kids that actually read a lot come off sounding like Jaden and his sister. Kids who read... make sense when they…
Yes! Nicole Yvette Brown is so cute. She lost a bunch of weight recently too, I think. But she has the cutest personality. I love that she ships Richonne. A woman after my own heart.
Sephora doesn't sell it—but Obagi eye cream and eye serum is literally the only eye treatment I've ever used with which I could actually see results. The cream is more useful for puffiness, and the serum is supposed to help with darkness, I believe. It's expensive—but if you can afford to drop $60 on eye stuff, it…
The thing is: women deal with this ALL THE TIME. Constantly. That's why there's this movement pushing back against it—your comment telling some rando woman to smile for you does not occur in a vacuum. Hundreds of men are doing that to her. And stop kidding yourself—This isn't about "cheering people up." If it…
I would be okay with the 90s nostalgia if it were just grunge-inspired plaid and baby doll dresses with combat boots—that shit was cute. But, it's the cheap fucking rayon or polyester shell tops that I can't tolerate (UGH—with the cutout shoulders! WHY). And they've brought back the buttondown shirts with sheer…
What's really hilarious about this is that you think someone who comes from a family that easily earns 6 figures annually isn't privileged.
Co-signed. Every word.
I died when Daryl yelled at her that she looked ridiculous. Ugh. My precious babies.
I completely agree. And actually, I think the pacing has been beautiful for a while now—at least since the prison fell. All those slow burn episodes while the group was separated? Those were amazing character-development episodes, pretty much on par with the Tyrese episode. I really would be surprised if the…
Romantic leads that Michael Cera has played: Scott Pilgrim vs. The World; Youth in Revolt; Nick and Nora's Infinite Playlist; Juno; Superbad (not a full-on romance—but he has a romantic subplot—and btw, in that movie Jonah Hill is romantically matched with who? Emma freaking Stone—who is adorable and way, way more…
Well, I do agree with you for the most part—it's certainly more common for conventionally attractive dudes to be given lead roles—but unconventionally attractive men aren't barred from superhero roles, either. Liam Neeson is a billion years old and he's an action hero. Mark Ruffalo is short and a little frumpy, not…
You've never heard that Southern and Eastern Europeans weren't considered white until well into the 20th century?
