I said I’ve experienced more than people I know, not all people of color. I’m not arrogant enough to make that claim. And it is true, I’ve discussed this issue with my friends and family and I’ve had more experiences with it than a majority of them have. But whatever, clearly you want to pull out our Hispanic cocks…

I’m very good at telling if someone is black or has a black parent

You don’t seem to understand where the artists are coming from and I find this whole article to be in incredibly poor taste, especially the bratty insults directed at someone who simply told you “no.”

I think treating the tragedy with respect should take priority over eloquent wording, in this case.

I think chopping off a child’s hair as punishment is implicitly public. So wrong, and so sad.

Or how betrayed she would feel that her own father, a person who is supposed to love and protect her, would become a bully too? She must have felt like absolutely no one would support and protect her. How terribly sad.

If she was being bullied at school, it makes it so much worse that her own father would do this to her. Did it never occur to him that those same bullies would see this and use it against her? WTF!

Get rid of Max’s iconic car in the first few minutes of the flick.

Is that really what you’re worried about? Promoting health? Are you sure you don’t just enjoy telling a woman that the body she lives in is “wrong?” Do you have to be sure that every picture you look at includes only people who are “healthy?”

I love all the fake concern that inevitably accompanies these stories, on here and every other forum that posts them. “Good for her, but she doesn’t look healthy” blah, blah, blah. Aside from the fact that her health is her choice, her business, and is probably just fine, it has nothing to do with her job as a model.…

I went to see a screening of the second Boondock Saints film (for all its deep and obvious flaws, I have an abiding fondness for the original, entirely because of the gorgeous men and all the homoeroticism) that included a panel discussion with Troy Duffy and a few of the actors afterward. The move was so awful I…

For you see, he’s not really a wizard.

I don’t know if I’d call it “manning up” given that he was thirteen when Mary Kay became pregnant with their first child, nor do I think a rape victim needs to “own up to his role” in his abuse, but yes, I admire and respect that Vili is a good, present father; he’s trying to do right by his kids. But he never should…

oh Jesus.

Sorry ladies. I win this one.

About seven years ago I was diagnosed with ovarian cancer. I was lucky in that it was fairly isolated so they just chopped that sucker out, but I was devastated by the treatments. Just.. so so sick. An old friend of mine (we'd shared a really shitty apt in NYC in my early 20s and during this time she and I had had a…

One Thanksgiving, about a decade ago, my grandmother was really sick and I decided to spend all day with her at the nursing home. I cooked her a special meal; all of her favorites. My then-husband (who also happened to be an abusive ass) decided to spend the day at his family's house for their annual get together.…

I may take the cake for cheating stories. Let me set the scene. When my son was born, my husband had been acting strange, but I chalked it up to pre-baby jitters. After 2 days of labor and a health baby, I was exhausted. We went to sleep the first night and I woke up to my husband texting. I asked who he was talking…

When my girlfriend broke up with me on my birthday. I was enlisted in the Air Force undergoing chemotherapy and radiation for colon cancer. When I underwent my first surgery (a lower anterior resection to remove the tumor) a month prior to my birthday, I was stuck in a military hospital for roughly 9 days for…

I had to take my mother to the emergency room while I was visiting her one weekend. I ended up staying for several days because she was super sick and my dad is basically incapable of caring for a houseplant, let alone a human. When I got back to my apartment I shared with my ex, the place was totally trashed and he…
