I agree. It can suck to be judged for your body no matter what that judgement is, but being fat comes with loads more stigma and hatred in our culture. The fat person is always the "before" picture, in the movies they're always the punchline, never the person deserving love and affection and compassion. They're not…

Maybe this is why we live in a society where boys start exploring their bodies (masturbating) right out of elementary school while most women don't even achieve their first orgasm until they are old enough to be in college. Health classes separate the boys and girls, and while the boys are learning about masturbation…

Way to not only miss the point of this entire article, but completely reinforce the hateful message that caused Ms. Cho to write it in the first place. Tattoos are beautiful, sorry you're so jelly.

What a sad, closed-minded little person you are. At least tattoos are good for one thing: helping people with them deflect and avoid judgmental assholes like you.

Wow you must have a terribly limited and uncreative vocabulary. I can think about a dozens words off the top of my head that could have sufficed, but I guess when you have the privilege of not fearing sexual assault every day for your entire, life, throwing that word around is no biggie.

This ^^

I don't know, I wasn't a criminal-psych major. I'm sure than info is Google-able.

Why, did you do that a lot?

Yep, there are three basic signs that most serial-killers showed during childhood: Fire-starting, animal-torture and bed-wetting. That's not to say that every child who shows those signs will grow up to be the next Dahmer, but they're much more likely to lack empathy for living things as an adult when they hurt…

Well said, you perfectly summed up what's wrong with OP's comment.

I don't understand how people can pretend to care about those in abusive relationships while ignoring all evidence and information about why they are hard to leave in the first place!!

Being a douchebag is easier for men because I mean just look at you.

Yes it is

Damn, you should read up one this guy called "The Pope".

The thing is, I don't think these anti-contraception Republicans care if the country/world would be doing economically better if women had access to reproductive choices. They just want women to be doing worse. They'd rather be at the top of an unequal and struggling economy than live in a more balanced and…

I think you nailed it with "Why else would anyone willingly become a woman?". Patriarchy says that it's infinitely worse to be a woman than a man (and patriarchy makes it worse as well), so the idea of someone choosing to live as a woman (not that it is a choice in reality for trans* people) seems like the ultimate…

I've never had that problem, but I always do really really thin coats and let them dry fully before adding another.

I used to be in that same boat until I bought Essie on a whim, and I feel like I notice a HUGE difference. It goes on much smoother and lasts longer (with a good topcoat). I make way less mistakes when painting my nails because it goes on thinner and it dries a lot quicker too. It feels like it lasts longer in…

I've never been called a "cunt" outside the context of "You are a woman and therefore I am not required to take your word or opinions seriously. I can treat you with the utmost disrespect, hatred and cruelty and I have our entire culture to back me up".

I spoke to a stripper friend once who said a few years back, this little older woman would come in a few times a week and write out $10 checks to give each of the dancers there. She continued this for several months. When they finally asked her why she was doing that, she said she caught her husband cheating and was…
