No but seriously, my daughter is super annoyed that she can't get a black widow costume/action figure/spy gear. It is literally all she wants.

I'm Navajo and I loved this show. While I cannot comment on how the Asian community thinks of Dong, I feel pretty strongly about the Native American arc. In the third episode where Mrs. Vorhees parents are introduced, I died. I thought they captured a part of Native Americans that I don't see in media: our sense of…

I am immediately suspicious of anyone who highlights someone's oppressed status to call out another's bigotry. You see it all the time with black and brown men being called particularly misogynistic or homophobic or lesbians being called particularly biphobic or trabsphobic.

No, they can't. Because as long as jezzies are blinded by their hatred of Iggy Azalea, they'll keep defending anyone who hates her too, no matter how douchy or stupid. Or they'll come up with some nonsense excuse about how anything Azalea does is awful because she's white but Banks can do it because she's a WOC and…

So here's my question about the "natural immune system" concept. I genuinely don't understand how anti-vax parents can reconcile this idea with the fact that childhood death was insanely common before the 1900's (and a bit into it), when ONLY "natural foods" and "natural medicine" were being used.

Here is the thing (and I'm sure I'm about to piss a lot of people off, but I'm going to say it anyway): Both of my sons are autistic. They were autistic before they had their shots, and we saw signs before they were vaccinated. We vaccinated them anyway, because vaccines do not cause autism.

It's not that big of a deal, especially considering the valid point he was making, the fact that when not talking about just one group we refer to ourselves as people of color, and the fact that despite people saying no one uses the phrase, a very visible advocacy group- the NAACP- still uses colored. It sounds a bit…

I fucking love her and don't care how many people are mad right now. Thumbs up to the weird-ass jumpsuit in particular. Her roles in Royal Tenenbaums, Sliding Doors, as well as being a very vocal Planned Parenthood supporter have earned her a lifetime pass in my book.

I got here too late for my comment to really make a difference, but hell, here goes. Is the hashtag tone-deaf? Yeah. But those people are actively acknowledging their privilege. Isn't that what we want them to do? Not turn an ignorant blind eye to the fact that they're able to do pretty much anything to cops and…

I can see that this started with good intentions, but the problem to me seems like.... well, bragging?

"Who is this helping? How is this helping? These are questions that all allies should be asking themselves. "

Fair enough, and I feel you.

But I think there are A LOT of really cloistered white people who, without firm examples of how whites are given preferential treatment by law enforcement, would simply deny white…

#crimingwhilewhite is directed at the many, many people, who argue that Mike Brown deserved to be killed because he stole "cigarillos" and "punched a cop in the face." These people also claim any white kid doing the same actions (although they generally believe white kids would never do such awful things!) would get…

I felt weird about this #crimingwhilewhite thing as it was gaining steam. This moment in history is kind of complicated as a white ally because a.) this isn't about me and other white people and I don't want to make it about me by sharing my white experiences with the law, etc. BUT b.) it should be everyone's…

Are we really sure he was saying feminism was make believe? I got the feeling he was saying that superheroes/movies are make believe. I think it is highly possible it isn't clear what he was referencing there.

As a Black man, I can understand how some Black people feel about the word "articulate" being used to describe us BUT as a gay man interested in trans issues, I think articulate is the appropriate word to use. Laverne really 'breaks it down' in a coherent and accessible way. She is really good at being able to…

I didn't bother reading the criteria, because they are meaningless, but New York is one of the gayest cities on earth. If only 5% of New York is gay, and that, to me, seems like a low estimate, that's over 400,000 people just within the five boroughs. About 20% of the residents of my Manhattan apartment building are…

I'm surprised New York isn't on the list. I mean, it's home to one of the biggest Fashion Weeks in the world AND Broadway, if you want to go with stereotypes. And isn't the New York Pride parade one of the biggest in the world?

What in god's name did Jersey City do to get on this list?!?!

I suspect his interest might be practical. Raise your hand if you think he HASN'T had anal in the dark with unfamiliar partners.
