To be honest when I read this I kept thinking to how it relates to another point constantly made on this site: that it's not up to us to judge what other consenting adults do in their sex lives. Obviously, this experience wasn't something the author enjoyed. But that doesn't mean it's something nobody enjoys. That's

Not appropriate for who? It seems to me this is the very definition of mild, consensual sexual activity. They've provided a safe word for anyone who is too overwhelmed. IMO it's not on anyone but the participants to decide what is appropriate. If it's not your thing, don't go in. But if other people want to that's

You are probably talking about this person: http://www.jasmuheen.com/

She failed, her body was dying, so the TV team forced the fast to stop. She claimed she was unable to feed off of solar energy because of toxins polluting the air. She has lived on to lead other, less fortunate seekers to their deaths.

I think it's kind of a silly thing to be upset about, honestly. I like the way glasses look on some people. And we already wear sunglasses for cosmetic reasons.

While it's not the same thing, I could say a lot of similar things about straight people. Some of them have given me very, very good reason to hate and fear them. But whatever license I have to hate and fear them is undone by a realization that bringing harm to innocent people based on association is evil.

Is "legitimate" hate and fear like "legitimate" rape?

I don't recommend it but it is used regularly by many male porn performers and strippers. Unfortunately so are steroids and other drugs.

If they aren't surgical lenses don't wear them. Not worth the risk of infection.

I agree with you in principle but like I just said to another poster, I doubt most people here would see it that way. In plain fact, these "merry murderers" are domestic abusers. Reverse the genders and it's immediately glaring. I'm not someone who runs around calling for bans on artistic pieces. But I do think it's

Well you're more than welcome to produce such a parody, and while I would probably defend it on the same principle as you're using here, I doubt it will be presented as Jezebel's "morning jam." The headline will be more like "Sexualized domestic violence is never ever ever ever okay to joke about" and the comments

Well there are some examples of musicals that employ male on female violence so you may be right. Evil Dead the Musical is the first that comes to mind (spoiler-not-spoiler: though the women have transformed into demons by that point). Violence against women is usually given a pass in horror genre and its spoofs since

So you think Jezebel posters would be okay with a female dancer writhing against a guy pulling a red scarf out of her neck while he sings "She had it coming all along" even in sarcasm? I'm not trying to raise a PC hue and cry or anything here but its IMO at least worth noting.

Of course I have. Comment about sexualized violence applies to both.

Technically brilliant. Todrick Hall is really making a name for himself with these videos. The lyric changes weren't everything I was hoping for but still good overall, and some excellent performances from the actors.

Since this is a website that often talks about sexualized violence, it may be worth be adding how wildl

Every gay porn star is named Brodie. Every single one.

I suspect it's played up in order to gain infamy for her website. Maybe it's half way true. It's even possible that "Ariella" is actually "John." I don't trust anything on the internet anymore.

It was covered in 7th grade history for me.

This woman has all the marks of an abuser. Yes, maybe "John" is a serial cheater and possibly a terrible person. Maybe they abuse each other. But she's also taken her abuse out of her relationship and into the public sphere.

(A more cynical part of me suspects its partly an act though and her rants are part of a viral

Very well explained. I'm glad I didn't have to wade into this one. Great job. It's always raised my hackles when someone trots out that "no genetic basis for race" argument. Making such a claim may be founded on good intentions but it also causes needless harm.

Actually what I mainly took from this is that some people have reduced expectations of black people's ability to communicate, and that the best way to hear them is to treat them like children. I am familiar with this tactic—intimately so—because it's the same tack Jezebel posters take with me on gay issues even though
