As an unmitigated Jewish honkey, I will not tell any person of color whether they should or should not be offended. But I sure as hell can analyze a joke (it's like dissecting a frog; no one is interested, and the frog dies!)

she doesnt have to walk on it
OK, so if men were going through the things women are going through (meaning that men and women's statuses in society would be flipped), then you would be a "masculinist" or whatever word they would have come up with to express the idea that men should have the same rights as women. But seeing as that is not the way…
It's always important when troll-level comments take away from the reasonable discussions of normal people.
I feel bad enough already!
Agreed on all counts! (Note: I was Baby Spice for Halloween of 1999.)
I think I got whiplash from going from being skeeved out by someone selling that yacht to laughing at a realllllllly well-done WSS joke that fast.
Yeah, because this one post makes the male gaze obsolete. You fixed it, Mark!
I stayed at a hotel in Africa that Will and Kate visited several times. According to the safari guides gracious and lovely where not the words they used to describe Kate. William nothing but kind things.
Sure, being a feminist doesn't mean you can't critique someone. However, Jez has a bad habit of randomly picking a handful of female celebrities and making them a punching bag or target to the point that it can become ridiculous. This, for one, is a ridiculous article because the whole point is senseless. Unless a…
There's a difference between critiquing someone's art (or whatever they do), and being judgemental about them as a person. What Jez does is the latter. Not the former. And it's like, you should be writing about how it's fucking incredible she's not using sex appeal to get famous, and instead writing her own damn…
If Jezebel went after Mitch McConnell, Scott Walker, or any of the other myriad number of white men who are actively ruining the country for women, poor people, and people of color with the same fervor it goes after feminist-identified pop stars and television actors who don't get it 100% right 100% of the time, we…
I agree. I don't even really like Taylor, but I honestly don't even see how anyone could interpret a fun pop song about moving to New York as gentrification in music form. NYC has always been known as the "city of dreams". This is not new? I mean she wasnt talking about moving to Brooklyn or the Bronx????? The only…
"The great thing about fashion is that it always looks forward."
tall, thin, white and privileged. take one of those away and she wouldn't get so much heat. she just seems so perfect that people want to find a flaw. she's a pop star. i'm just sad she stopped dating because of all the pressure. she should be able to fuck the entire world if she wants. then write a catchy but vapid…
She's also clearly self-identified as a feminist and constantly talks about the glories of female friendship. But there's this constant media message to judge and dislike her, for a variety of "reasons": she writes about ex-boyfriends! (yeah, male writers never do that); she's rich! (yeah, unlike ... all the other…
It's amazing how powerful and really physically strong she seemed to be for a woman who is so startlingly petite. Her tales of her twice weekly personal trainer in the evening and how she never took Sandy's (O'Connor) aerobics class because it was a 8am and "that's not my hour" was hilarious. She should remain on…
I literally just wrote the same comment before seeing yours. The press seems to put him in this "attention-hungry troll" category with James Franco when his stunts look more like a cry for help from where I'm sitting. They did the same thing with Amanda Bynes long after it was clear she was mentally ill. I don't think…
