Exactly! So what if they're photoshopped, I know they still look a lot better than me without the photoshop! It's like when someone like Jennifer Lawrence gets heralded as being "real" looking-um, Jennifer Lawrence is gorgeous and thin, how exactly is she supposed to make me feel any better about myself?

This clip is totally priceless in that you get to hear Tom Mison/Ichabod Crane refer to manscaping as PUBIC TOPIARY.
Exactly! Well said.
I agree with you. It seems particularly disingenuous in light of all the love that Lena Dunham and Girls receives. WoC can do no right in the eyes of Jezebel! ;)
"Can people chill" is not very different from saying shit like "you're overreacting," "stop being so oversensitive," "it's not a big deal," and so on—and all of those are ways of dismissing and silencing. I understand that that wasn't blablita's intention, but the little stuff is important sometimes, and I hate it…
no, but right now you're being an idiot.
No, because I explained that my perspective is coming out of concern rather than condemnation. You've made this "white men get a bad rap when it comes to Asian fetishes but the fetishizing goes both ways" comment on numerous articles, so yeah, it definitely seems like this is something that specifically bugs you, for…
What does this have to do with anything? A woman wrote a comic that resonated with a lot of Asian women, then some asshat had to make a stupid comment, "Well, if you're treated that way, it's because you deserve it, with your unhealthy, racialized infatuation [with] white men." Then Asian women chimed in to say,…
I am noticing all of these posts about Asian women having a white-man fetish and not taking "responsibility" for it.
Clearly doldrums means that black people are better ninjas, because their skin tone is darker so they hide in the dark better.
Hahaha yes! Hell, I was the one that said "sharp pencil skirt," so I'm with you there. :) Also, yes. I had no pencil skirts at 11. So she gets a pass.
Does Victoria Beckham's son look like Tom Hiddleston? Maybe I've been watching too many Hiddleston dancing videos. Ok, I need to put on pants and go outside today.
Just like everything else that makes it into the dictionary, feminism is so much more than just a definition. What if we admitted that? What if we admitted that, yeah, actually, for every single one of these stereotypes, there is at least one feminist out there actually saying this shit? (And no, I don't mean like…
For me, the world "cum" is a huge turn off, like a cold shower. You can write the hottest sex scene of all time, but if it ends with the characters "cumming" I just won't be able to remain aroused.
I am still weak from laughing at "'On-trend' can sniff my dong" so this was a good Dirt Bag for me
Whiteness and white supremacy is an institution. One that you're a part of whether you like it or not. When we talk about "white people" we're talking about the institution of whiteness upon which racism stands.
In the same way people say stuff like "Ugh, banks are thieving scum bags" and it's a given that we're not…
Tell you can only make one. No reason to say Why. Then explain how happy you are to hit the wedding.
Nailed it. I was coming here to say that she absolutely has to know that this will make people go batshitcrazy, that this will get her name all over every blog everywhere. Her name is going to be on every morning talk show and that will get her booked on some shows explaining how 'devastated' she was by all the…
@nikkit822: really? I'd prefer racists keep it to themselves and pretend to be okay with people of other races, rather than spewing hate. That way, other people's hate doesn't get validated, and that hate doesn't get spread around.
