Good lord. I am not an advocate of the death penalty for anyone, but on a case like this it seems ridiculously egregious.

And then cheering him on with a standing ovation 15 minutes later. I was surprised he wasn’t escorted by security immediately. WTF. 

No, I’m sorry, none of that passes the smell test. Your theory is that instead of it just being a guy getting hot in the moment and popping off, he staged an embarrassing moment with a comedian that would likely reflect poorly on both them and the Academy, faked a tearful apology during his big acceptance speech that…

And then to justify it with: “Love makes you do crazy things,” which is of course the motto of every abuser.

Not only that, but when you defend your loved ones using violence, guess what - your loved ones are more likely to be afraid of you turning that violence towards them than feel protected by it! Never thought I’d get triggered watching the person who wrote “Miami” try to act deep at the Oscars.

Seriously. His behaviour was the very definition of toxic masculinity (something this site supposedly deplores?). You can defend your loved one without resorting to violence.

While a text exchange between Depp and Fantastic Beasts writer J.K. Rowling will also reportedly be shown to the court.

It was, indeed, a dumb thing to say, and I’m glad she apologized. But something about the weird gloating reaction people had to it was so weird. Like, “ohohoho how the tables have turned! Milkshake duck!”

I know this will land like a lead balloon, but under the circumstances (and especially based on the depth and sincerity of her apology), can’t we just chalk this up to someone being kind of flustered and excited and saying something she normally wouldn’t have in just about any other situation? People sometimes use the…

Here is what annoys me about the Shake situation. I mean, a lot annoys me, but one thing... He and Deepti did seem to have a strong friendship even when he told her he wasn’t attracted to her. Then knowing that he hurt her, it took him so long to apologize. If he was really concerned about her feelings why didn’t he…

This is what happens in a society that allows billionaires and other types of super rich to exist. These people have near infinite political and social power due to their money and the influence that buys, and then their own bigotries become society’s narratives via that incredible privilege. If instead she was taxed…

From what I could gather from reading her other screeds she feels her experiences as a woman are so insecure and tenuous that even if she considers for a drunken hot second that a trans woman is a woman and not some third made up “something” her experiences of childbirth and puberty will be worthless. Every emotion…

With very few exceptions that barely even apply anyway, I don’t have any reason to care about the genitalia/chromosomes/hormones someone was born with, nor do I care about the genitalia/chromosomes/hormones anyone has today. Nor am I about to start arguing with people about how to refer to them! If someone tells me…

These people like Rowling are literally OBSESSED with us Trans Women and it’s so ridiculous OMG get a life... We are just trying to live ours why can’t you do the same???

Jesus. Leaving out the fact that she goes on and on and WILL NOT SHUT UP and let us just enjoy the seven (well, six, really...Hallows was weak) good books she wrote, what is it J.K. thinks is going to happen if trans women are called women? Is her vagina going to fall off? Will we all suddenly become sterile?

As a fellow trans person, I expect she conferred with her daughter about the manner in which she was comfortable as being referred to in the article, given the thoughtfulness she’s acted with throughout her daughter’s transition.

Shaheen and her sister have thee BEST MOM EVAH!!!

But through exploring some of his feelings and looking back at his emotions, he realized that he was actually supposed to be a girl, and just felt like his body didn’t match how he felt inside. She asked me to stop calling her Shahrick, as she preferred Shaheen—a gender-neutral name in our culture like Chris or…

Thank you for sharing your story, and the best to your daughter.
