You are very right about that, people will sometimes ignore the other horrible side to people's awful comments. I think this is in part because they are uncomfortable with addressing certain issues. People can call out homophobia but may still find it hard to call out ableism or racism. We don't talk enough about…

One of the things about Elle (and other fashion magazines) that continually pisses me off and disappoints me is that these magazines continue to do things like this, with women like Adele and Melissa and now Mindy. So that rather then focusing on these editorials and interviews we are instead focusing on the ways…

Not only is this statement extremely homophobic of Holyfield it is also incredibly ableist too. It is important to focus on both aspects of his comments, clearly he knows nothing about what it means to be disabled nor what it means to be gay. As one of the two, I'd like to kindly ask Evander Holyfield to fuck off and…

Do you know how much I love Johnny Weir & short track speed skating??? I love them both a whole fuckin' lot! Seriously looking forward to short track, really hoping that J.R. Celski medals, been cheering him on since the last Olympics and I think he could do really well this time around.

Okay, I'm sorry if that was a bit uneducated, my bad. I was just going off of my knowledge from convos with a few Muslim friends- some follow the tenets of Islam more and others not so much. I didn't mean to broadly paint all of Islam in that light, just pointing out that there are many ways to practice a religion.…

Religion is more then just following the rules, for many people it is about introspective reflection and deciding what aspects of a religion they agree/don't agree with. To create a set of rules that says you are only of a particular sect in a faith or of a particular faith if you follow the set rules and wording to a…

No doubt this is incredibly problematic and hurtful to the way we sexualize young women and how we see ourselves. However, when I read the headline, I'll admit that I thought it was implying that US Vogue violated the initiative, to which I was pleased to see it did not. If there is one thing you can say about Anna…

Oh my god, Adele is too precious in that video! She genuinely seems thrilled to be receiving this honor and to be honest, who wouldn't be giggling a bit after walking away from a moment like that?

Adele looks so lovely and I love everything about her dress. From the cut, color, and pattern, it just works so well on her. I also have a feeling that we will be calling her Dame Adele is like 20 years, right?

I'm Jewish but every time I see Christmas ornaments in antique shops I just want to buy the lot. For some reason, they just look really sad just sitting in those places, they deserve to be hanging up on pretty Christmas trees in loving homes. I'm planning on giving antique ornaments for presents next year though, I…

I think part of the reason why Pretty Hurts hasn't gotten as much commentary is because people find it hard to talk about self-esteem/body image. It's much easier in our society to talk about being sexy and whatnot then to talk about a message such as in Pretty Hurts. Don't get me wrong though, I think both being sexy…

I'm a terrible person but I do hope that the next films do really badly, maybe if the next one is just terrible they wont make the other two. I'm not a massive James Cameron fan although I think he's do some good films, so when his ex wife beat him for best director a few years ago it made me extra happy. I mean, she…

I just wanted to say that Pretty Hurts is the song that just brought on the tears the most. I've always strived to not have issues with my body, I don't want to be like most of the women in my family, yet, for all the amount of work I've done to make sure I feel pretty good about myself, this song still struck a…

I have the gortex lined bean boots and they are fantastic as well, I just wear hand-knit socks by my mom with them to keep my toes toasty. I'm hoping to get the shearling lined ones at some point, cause I've lived my whole life in the Northeast and I think it's gotten to the point where I deserve not one but two pairs…

Ever since I herd Pretty Hurts and watched the video for the first time all I've wanted to do is have a long conversation with someone about the song and video, I just need to talk about it with someone. For me it's one of the most powerful things I've seen in a long time. Every time I listen to/watch the video I just…

I also feel like it was worth spending that $15 on this album, like, it was so well done that I'm happy to support her sale-wise. I'm definitely a Beyonce fan but even then, I normally bulk at spending that much on an album, I'd typically buy a few songs first to see what I like, and I'd never buy anything without…

I think it's interesting that Kristen Stewart has apparently now landed her second luxury brand advertisements. First with Balenciaga and now apparently with Chanel. Whatever she's "got" apparently designers want her to be the face of their brand. Which to be honest I always find a bit funny, she's always struck me as…

I think the author meant that Princess Diana was held to high esteem and beloved by pretty much everyone. So the author is comparing the way people are adoring the Pope to her. Not going to lie, I was slightly annoyed when I got to the end and realized there was no mention of Princess Di and the 'universal' popularity…

Thank you for reading that piece so I didn't have to. As a 'bad liberal' I didn't want to have to give Fox News page clicks if I didn't have to.

From what I can tell Pope Francis is a hell of a lot better then the last guy and I hope that he continues to not only change the image of the church but to do good. But, can I please just point out (cause we're all feminists here) that only a single women made it onto the list of possible Times person of the year.…
