These are not homophobic, not in the slightest.

Yes, Americans take "not bad" a bit more literally. We understand it to mean that something is average. The unsaid part of the sentence is "not bad... Not good, but not bad."

Oh my God, I just LOST MY SHIT at my desk at "It looks like that shit they eat for dinner in Hook! Exercise more and eat less, Rufio!" That was fucking genius!

I work on business to business contracts for a living. This is an extremely complicated process behind the scenes for these companies. First they have to determine if they're even allowed to get out of the contract. They have to look for a termination clause and see if it meets the criteria specified inside. If it…

This is what Scalia was so afraid of in his dissent - that some married gay couple would move into a gay-hostile state and sue that state's government.

As an adopted child, I'm happy whenever children are placed into a loving home. I don't really care what borders are crossed. Do I think it's a shame to go outside of the country when there are so many needy children here? Yes, of course, but those children still need homes.

My heart will go on, y'all, but I'm not so sure about my pancreas.

He's needed for his cameo as Rick Scott, Governor of Florida.

The Onion has this covered

Scalia on DOMA:

"We have no power to decide this case. And even if we did, we have no power under the Constitution to invalidate this democratically adopted legislation. The Court's errors on both points spring forth from the same diseased root: an exalted conception of the role of this institution in America. "

Scalia…

Y'all were AMAZING last night. Thank you so much. If it weren't for you and the other people in the gallery, SB 5 would've passed. Y'all (and Sens Davis, Watson, Van De Putte, et al.) saved us (for now) from a misogynist dystopia. Seriously. It was about to get all Handmaiden's Tale up in this state.

Oh my goodness, y'all. I was in the senate chamber until we were starting to get cleared, which was probably around 12:30AM? I can't articulate how incredible it was. This is the stuff you read about in 9th grade American History and don't quite grasp the gravity of until you find yourself a part of it. My hands are…

I called my sister (who is gay and lives in California) and her partner of 12 years this morning to welcome them to a country where they have the same rights as I do. I also called my mother to tell her and she and I cried on the phone. I'm so incredibly happy for my sister and her family and all the families out…

Holy fucking cow. Were they blessed with the power of flight in addition to good looks?

I would maybe have less of a problem with these articles if it was done with a little more information, better perspective (preferably from the perspective of a South Korean woman), and if, as you said, they ran articles about East Asian women ever that weren't just this gawking (yes I know the parent site is…

Sure. I don't think Koreans get surgery to look white - but I don't think you can deny that the ideal of beauty in Asia does have Western influences. Like everyone else, the grass is always greener and we want what we don't naturally have. We want pronounced facial features: big, round eyes? Get double surgery, and…

My wife really "wants" double eyelids, but it isn't because she wants to be "white," it's because she wants to be an Asian woman with double eyelids. Which, contrary to people's beliefs, happens to many Asian people without the assistance of white magicks.

There's something really self-centred about westerners wringing their hands about how people from other ethnicities 'just want to look like us'.

EVERY TIME AN ARTICLE LIKE THIS IS POSTED, I FEEL THE NEED TO COMMENT. US ASIANS DO NOT WANT TO LOOK LIKE YOU WHITE FOLKS. We may like the way you look, but we DO NOT WANT TO LOOK LIKE YOU. Stop thinking we do. There are plenty of Asians with paler skin than a White person NATURALLY. There are plenty of Asians born…

I'm not arguing that it's some huge conspiracy on to cover up male victims intentionally — merely pointing out that the assaults on men don't get mentioned anywhere near as often, which is especially problematic because sexual assault in the military is frequently discussed in terms of "women joining the military…
