I drank a shit ton of wine last night and I managed not to rape anyone.

I was just thinking the same thing! What if someone stole his identity with a few keystrokes and voided his bank account in a matter of seconds? What if someone stalked around his house and took things of value in 15 minutes? What if a gun was fired and shot him in the head in a matter of seconds? 20 minutes can be…
A lot of women gain pregnancy weight in the backside, so I do believe it. Though it also should be acknowledged that her tailor is a minor deity, at least.
While “Oakland Booty” is indeed a “black” reference, it’s simply not true that “LA Face” is a “white” one. In any case, Mix-A-Lot places the LA Face/Oakland Booty as the “ideal combination”, not as two separate options. So he’s either making a statement about mixed-race ancestry or... it’s not really meant to cross…
People referencing her and Ryan praising genetic definitions that POC have is annoying. So what if Blake Lively praises her (it’s true, it’s not that big) butt, so what if Ryan Reynolds compares his wife to the Queen B?I would need to hear that that is considered racism from an actual POC, not some other rando white…
Stupid and inane I’ll give you. But racist? How in God’s holy name is this racist? Was Sir Mix-a-Lot touting a racist diametric when he penned the line?
“In the end, it touts a diametrical opposition: that Los Angeles can be equated to elegance and/or beauty (read: whiteness), and that Oakland is its foil (read: blackness).”
Here’s a thought for everyone: stop throwing the word racist around just because characteristics of two races, however stereotypical, are mentioned. Racism is when one race is elevated over another as superior. This is highlighting two different aspects in a positive light. “Diametrical opposition” is the real…
LA people are typically pretty. They congregate there.
This is a hell of a reach, y’all. Do you mean to tell me that my itty bitty waist and round thing in your face is cultural appropriation? I thought it was cheeseburgers.
While Lively’s caption is most likely a nod to Sir Mix-A-Lot
Genuine, no snark questions. Were any black people offended by this? Or is this manufactured controversy; white people being offended on behalf of POC?
Dear God, so now when a white person quotes a raps song so they are passively racist? I’m black and I’m sick of pettiness of SJW to find racism every just as I’m sick of right wing bigots. SJW will find racism in an empty soda can “there’s not enough soda in here for black people”
If one considers Blake’s beautiful face and beautiful backside equally attractive, then there clearly is no foul. But the author has apparently betrayed her white judginess by implying that an Oakland booty is less desirable.
P. Standard everyone’s hot take is that she’s quoting Sir Mix a Lot and how that quote is actually like this weird vortex bc the song is about how white women looked down upon WOC and their bodies (theyre so gross, they’re so black) and yet here is this absurdly privileged white woman with a history of being racially…
You say tomayto, I say tomahto. You say problematic, I say you’re a clickbaiting asshole.
So, if it is problematic for her to use this song lyric in this way, is it also problematic for this song to be a “bar mitzvah staple”?
This article is Peak Meanspirited Jezebel Celebrity Smearing, a thing I normally enjoy.
I know it sucks that pretty blonde ladies exist, and that some people just kinda get to look like Disney Princesses, but she’s quoting a line from “Baby Got Back.” A song about women with large rear ends.
Now, you could argue Sir…
Well this is a big ol nothingburger.
Oh. My. God, Becky.
