I see it as the concept of putting a woman on a pedestal to act as an object is sexist. Sofia actually using free agency and choosing and enjoying it, is neither sexist or anti-feminist. Feminism is not agreeing with everything every woman does. We cannot pretend every choice a woman makes is done in a vacuum, free…

Thank you, I read the article 4 times looking for a sentence explaining this. For an article that is entirely about the honor system of this coffee shop, it's very confusing to omit any info on how the payment system works!

I was reading about Eric Gardner's death and there was a comment like "Well, we need to be sure it wasn't any mitigating factors and that is was the choke-hold in and of itself that killed him. I think we need to have another autopsy"

Beyonce is wildly overrated.

I am not sure I understand how this works. You decide what price you want to pay with the asking price as a suggestion?

...skeptics protested that "you could do that with any performer and it would sound just as bad."

The length to which people are willing to maintain that a manslaughtering white man is "not a bad guy" is amazing.

I was obsessed with tennis is high school. She was my hero. I just also want to add:

As much as you'd be "validated" if that phrase to be some sort gender-domineering-feminism "hear me roar" bullshit, it's just a figure of speech; the speaker is hypothesizing that the subject would kind of have to listen to the advice. People also say things like "if that was my son, I'd tell him to stop being a…

Not "She wouldn't do" but rather "I wouldn't want her to". There is a pretty big difference. One implies direct control, the other just expresses a wish.

"No daughter of mine will be a stripper like Miley"

"I would not want my daughter to be a stripper.... like Miley"

I have zero personal opinion of him, but he said he "wouldn't want", not "wouldn't do". I don't think there was anything that implied property. However, I don't think the quote is free from criticism. To me, I would want a follow up "Well do you have anything against women twerking for your pleasure?" If so than…

Ed's an asshole for saying what a lot of people were thinking, apparently.

"When I first heard 'Wrecking Ball,' I thought it was a brilliant song. But the video distracts too much from it."

She wasn't singing live for most of it, for fuck's sake. I'm more of a Beyoncé than Taylor Swift fan but Jesus.

Personally I don't hate B, and I suppose one is meant to like someone who makes such a feminist statement but boy is she tiring...so incredibly tiring and too much.

The Beyhive is crazy and they can sniff out dissent.

The defenders are here before there's anything to defend. How scary. :|

Nothing new, Beyonce does the same performance every time. Even her customs are all the same, but you are going to have people acting like this was the best performance ever.

I don't hate Beyoncé but I thought that performance was meh. Just what you need at an awards show, a 20 minute slow jam.

This comment will probably languish in the grays, but COME ON. Beyonce's fun, but this post is laughably effusive.
