"Plain and simple: Mean people need Jesus,"
As a former Girl Scout and a Texan, Go Chavez!
That makes sense. I just think it's difficult to talk about the garment industry without also talking about slavery, because frankly we have no idea whether the people who made our clothes are enslaved or not. So yeah not all factory workers are enslaved, but I think not talking about it does a disservice to those who…
No. It's not quite simple. Because those fabulous, ethical, local companies sell their clothes at a higher price. Now, many people do not buy them simply because they do want the cheaper (say, WalMart) option. But many, many people cannot afford the higher price (because, say, they work at WalMart, which does not pay…
AHHH!! I'm so sick of hearing about Sriracha!! It's right up there with owl illustrations and those black handlebar mustaches that are plastered all over the place. Enough already! Oh well, anything's better than the bacon trend. Bacon is sooo 2010.
As a Mexican, I fully approve of this look.
I've got a friend who swears by "Into the Woods." Is he correct?
Jezebel has never had a shortage of hypocrites. You can bet there would be a post viciously condemning this same list if it were about breast size or vagina... cavernous-ness? (Yup, I'm going with that).
I also wonder, at the end of the day, who the real "target" is, or who actually benefits from the conversation: The overweight people who know how this stuff works and, like yourself, have time to take that walk, or the money to buy the greens for that salad — or is it really about those in more socio-economically…
I think you're completely right. Awareness of this is important. It was shite when I discovered a few years back that black women have this to deal with on dating sites on top of all the misogyny, sleaze, and enquiries about water sports (don't ask) that white women in the UK and US get. I can't speak for how dating…
I'm going to take the unpopular position here and agree with you. I'm a black woman who has experienced racial microaggressions both large and small throughout my life. Does racism need to be called out? Hell yeah. Does that mean it's ok to post a private message from an unverified (and possibly fake) account with a…
Life Lessons from 50 years as a Black woman dealing with White women.
You hear of one man doing something awful and you think to yourself, "ugh, men?"
You are missing the point. Jezebel does this so all the benevolent "Jezzies" can respond with remarks indicating how anti-racist they are. Instead of a dog whistle, it is a signal for all the wounded fragile "I'm a good person" white girls to collectively pat themselves on the back.

Publishing random OkCupid messages along with photographs of alleged users is both naive and unethical. Everything you read on the internet is not real. Publishing people's semi-private information on a nationally read blog, based on a single screenshot (as you have done…
