Well, for starters... East Asian countries have their own host of highly venerated celebrities (male and female) that we in the West are not exposed to and therefore don't know about. But they're kind of a big deal there - and your average East Asian living in an East Asian country would have a lot more exposure to…

It's not just Korea that's obsessed with the eyelid fold look. It's all of East Asia.

I actually don't think a fetus is. Because it's not a person, duh, and therefore my whole argument is null.

I'm not sure if you've already seen this elsewhere, but the "rape" charges he's accused of in Sweden are a Sweden-specific sexual misconduct charge, i.e. having sex without a condom when the woman was under the assumption you were wearing one. So if you start having sex wearing one, and then take it off, it applies to…

Well... I think those would kind of be nice, too. I've heard my boyfriend's friend talk about waking up after drunken partying to find some random girl who was hitting on him really hard the previous night taking advantage of his morning wood (he told her multiple times he wasn't interested). He kinda laughed it off,…

But what did his wife do to deserve that violation?! (Aside from marrying Mr. Dickbag, that is)

No. Even considering the zygote/fetus as a human being, as per several anti-slavery laws, it does not have any right to forcefully hold an unwilling human being's body hostage to use for its own needs. In fact, it is so extreme that its right to live does not supersede another person's right to bodily autonomy. We…

https://yesmeansyesblog.wordpress.com/2011/05/02/domism-role-essentialism-and-sexism-intersectionality-in-the-bdsm-scene/ This is a pretty interesting article that attempts to dissect sexism and domism in the BDSM scene (it also cites one variation of the numbers I brought up - ~15% female doms, 7% male subs;…

I don't think anyone's ever done a study of the general population, but it's documented that within the BDSM community, about 15% of women who participate are true dominants. That is to say, dominant is the only role they play - exclusively. I've seen a few numbers thrown around for the men, ranging between 7%-20% of…

O:

Yup. Worked really well for this nice girl I knew. I think her name was Mary? Maria? Something like that.

Heh, I have a few of those too. I used to scribble down whole notebooks of smut while in high school (and still do now, occasionally) because I just never find porn that I like. I want to share it with the boy-toy (especially if he ends up moving away for work), though I worry he's going to try and ~replicate~ what's…

Hah, my quip about being a "bad feminist" was mostly a joke in response to the tone of the article. I don't think it makes anyone a bad anything if they have certain favourite colours, or like their possessions to be "pretty". I thought the actual website was quite professional with the product they were selling and…

Thanks! I'm hoping I can plow through a large portion of it this coming November for the NaNoWriMo event.

I... kinda feel like a bad feminist because I want the stun-gun disguised as a lipstick. It even has a safety pin, which sounds really useful. I also still really want those pumps that had a Tazer/electro-shocker embedded into the heel that I saw many years ago (You had to remove the tip of the heel by…

I'm actually writing an erotica novel (for fun - I intend to publish it, but I certainly don't consider it "high literature" or even on the list of my greatest fiction-writing achievements) featuring a really badass domme lady who is a domme through and through, thank you very much. I'm quite proud of the fact that…

Look, I agree with your point about the military. It's disgusting. (I won't say unnecessary, because I think it's useful to have a large force of people trained to move very quickly under stressful situations - the Canadian military spends a chunk of its time doing disaster relief within its own borders, for example.…

I like the Queen Rowena (is that her name? The one from Snow White?) and the vampire lady with a cigarette holder. If I had somewhere to go I'd totally snatch them up and pretty them up a bit. (Evil Queen needs more fluff around her collar, vamp lady needs less of whatever is that crap attached to the bottom of her…

Oh god, human heredity studies. Ha. Ha. I still remember looking at a graph from a study about the heredity of various personality traits (done on identical twins) and the error bars took up pretty much the entire graph. Like, you'd have a point at "53% hereditary" for, say, being easily stressed out (I'm just coming…

Okay. I'm making this into an infographic. Like with the text boxes and arrows. Except the two choices from "Are you an Adonis stud muffin/every woman's wet dream?" there are going to be two boxes - one "No" and one "No, you aren't. All women have different preferences, even if you're conventionally attractive some…
