I know right?! I mean, here you are shaming this person publicly, but you won't explain the context; yet you use your celebrity and public image to shame another? Oh okay, draw the line in the sand now. She seems really douchey though.

AHAHAHA "I stand by my t-shirt"!! What a ridiculous sentence to speak out loud!
I am half Mennonite, and I disagree. Insularity is bad. It makes the whole world the other and when that happens the people who are inside the group start to believe that the laws of the others don't apply to them. It's not about what they wear or their views on modern technology.
This is going on in the United States as well. It's not as if Bolivia is in the wrong alone here. There are Old Order colonies in the U.S and they don't pay taxes, are often considered outside of the scope of local law enforcement, etc. Even if it is not codified into law (federal taxes are as of 1965),…
When I had a newborn, I had a difficult time breastfeeding at first. Getting him latched and feeding in a way that would not tear my nipples to shreds required both hands and a full, unobstructed view of what he was doing, and once he got on there, I couldn't move at all because he'd break his latch and we'd have to…
I feel dumb even saying this (because I could give a fuck about seeing a mother feed her child or seeing A Breast in whichever circumstances) but the woman in question appeared to be EXTREMELY discrete. And in a rec center where people are running around in bathing suits, barefooted, shirtless males, a boob obscured…
Do you avert your eyes from the supermarket magazine display? There is a lot more boobage showing on the covers of those things than there is on a breastfeeding lady.
I don't have kids. But I've heard enough stories from Jezebel commenters and elsewhere to believe that requiring women to cover is an unfair imposition. Some babies don't like to be covered while feeding, and they either won't latch on or will kick and squirm instead of getting the breakfast thing done. Plus I think…
"Look somewhere else" = Altering your life? Jeez lady, you must have it pretty easy.
"As a white man I am literally never ever bothered by anyone about anything."
Don't listen to him. He's just sensitive because he's in love with testosterone. They were childhood sweethearts. Some day he and testosterone are going to get married and have cute, furry, little testosterone babies. He can't stand it when people hate on testosterone and will always gallantly defend testosterone…
What's even more horrific is that a former Philly journalist - a woman - wrote a piece that boils down to "boys will be boys" and "that's what newsrooms are like, get tougher skin."
That's a fine theory, but wholly inapplicable considering the cost of today's healthcare. How is the average working American supposed to afford a surgery, expensive diagnostics, or ongoing perscription drugs, which can all easily cost thousands of dollars? Most simply can't. The "every man for himself" schtick has…
Yeeeeah, no.
Yeah, no. That's the defense people who are clearly fat shaming like to hide behind—"but I wasn't talking about regular 'fat' people, just the morbidly obese ones!" Since you lumped all fat acceptance under an umbrella and said that the former "promotes" obesity, it's clear you are being disingenuous, or at best, that…
Maybe YOU should not tell anyone whose doctor you are not ANYTHING about their weight. No one is saying you have to go up to fat people on the street and say "hey I think it's great you're fat". But my momma taught me (and maybe it's that I'm old as the hills) "If you can't say anything nice, don't say anything at…
Precisely my point. Theocrats are theocrats, whether they be Christian, Muslim, or whatever else - anyone who seeks to legislate their religious views in a secular democracy is to be distrusted.
In the US, they're against Sharia law not because it would violate separation of church and state, as they don't believe in it.
Because this person's a racist piece of shit.
