Feeling goood on a Wednesday... being a baybayyy...

ya ya ya

You are right! And since there also seems to be no photographic evidence to the contrary, we must come to the conclusion...SHE HAS NO RIGHT SIDE OF HER FACE

i need a goddamn vodka.

Your answer is exactly the problem I'm having. I asked an honest, sincere question. Your reaction was to insult me, while giving a thoughtful response. However, another person had a completely different answer and encouraged the question and gave an equally thoughtful response. Two different people, two highly

because the death of Matthew Shepard was not about straight people.

There are no "good white people", " good black people", "good hispanic people", ect.... There are only GOOD PEOPLE!!!! We need to take race out of it.

Sometimes I think good white people expect to be rewarded for their decency. We are not like those other white people. See how enlightened and aware we are? See how we are good?

Your assumption here is a problem. You assume that the commenter is looking for a prize. They aren't. They are saying they don't need to apologize for sympathy and empathy which is offered without reward to all walks of life. That the automatic assumption (on your part, it would seem) that they are saying these

I thought it was a wonderful piece, but I sincerely doubt that most good white people—or at least the good white people who run in my circles—believe that they "deserve a fucking prize." I think they're expressing empathy.

This has given me all the feels. I am struggling not to cut all of the white people out of my life (kind of hard, given I'm married to a white man) and many of those people are "good white people." They are shocked at racism and racist behavior— so much so they I get links to racist posts on websites because they

I guess the question is "How can white people be supportive of the issue without seeming to demean or take over the issue? " If white people don't talk talk about what they do in the situation, then the narrative is that white people are ignoring the issue (which so many do). If white people talk about the issue,

YES IT WILL I'M SO EXCITED

Well, and on top of that, how easy is it to blame yourself, compared to realizing that you were assaulted? It's so much easier to say, "What, rape? Nooooo! That was me being silly/putting myself in a bad situation/before I matured" etcetera. When you listen to people describing what happened to them and defining rape,

I think people were always getting raped, we've just finally gotten to the point where some people feel safe talking about it.

For anyone who criticizes women for not reporting rape, or for taking a long time to come forward (I'm talking about those people who refuse to believe the allegations against Bill Cosby), you can see in this interview how hard it is for any woman to talk about it or admit that it happened to them. Even years later,

Howard Stern has evolved into quite the interviewer. He's able to elicit a lot of really personal stuff in a fairly non-invasive manner. Quite the change over the last 30 years.

I think the term should be Cindarella Boobs, because they last for one night, and then the carriage shrinks back to its original size.

Better people have replied to you, to tell you that your comments are unhelpful, thoughtless, insensitive and somewhat damaging.
