I'm not talking about people, I'm talking about you. I've only been talking about you this whole time. You can make the decision not to make racist and sexist jokes. You can choose to at least try not to hurt people. Do you really deny this is possible?

Whoa...no expert here. My field of study is engineering. I basically get sent to some of the worst places on the planet and make a steel mill. That is all I do.

...you do realize English is one of the official national languages of India, right?

While we're staring at India, how about massive, multi-city protests across the United States, against rape and other violence against women.

I'm really hating all these 'this is so true, here's an example from an Indian family I know!' comments.

Why do you think one thing being worse than another excuses the lesser offence? Why do you think anyone would ever deserve to have their body made fun of? Why do you think using racist stereotypes is okay? Why do you think it is ever okay to hurt anyone else? It's not. Hurting people is bad. Hurting people in the name…

Yes but in India, public discourse (especially of the intellectual / liberal kind) is actually often held in English. Very unlike the other countries you mention. If you look at any demonstration in a Spanish speaking country, most of the signs would be in Spanish, actually... But yes, if you're protesting against…

But your comment was racist you can shit on men without using racial stereotypes, sigh white feminists.

This is why PoC craft their own understandings of feminism because (white) feminists will always place their whiteness above any other issue.

You do realize who colonized India, don't you? You also realize that India has scores of regional dialects and languages and when an Indian person from the southern part of the country meets a person from the northern part of the country, they will speak English to each other, don't you?

Reminder that this website still has an article up naming the victim of a gang rape in India against the explicit wishes of her family.

The issue is not that they are aborted, per say, but that when people abort female fetuses at a much higher rate than male fetuses (because they are female), there will be a huge gender imbalance in the future and that leads to all kinds of problems. Forcing people to carry unwanted fetuses to term is obviously not…

Let's just let her handle this herself:

Oh who gives a fuck about this miserable, cranky piece of shit. Let's talk about how amazing Oprah has been looking lately! Look at this! She wins everything!

This is amazing and I wish I had the power to ungray you.

It doesn't matter. If you are at a party with 101 people and 99 people think you look great, one of the other 3 can post your pic online and make some snarky comment and others will chime in. You can't win. I have found I can either live in fear or give zero fucks. In the past I have avoided events that I know a lot…

Just continue staying on that wire (unless you know you'll land on your feet with ease). The time I spent on the site was like torture until I was certain I wasn't on it.

It also makes me afraid to leave the house without looking my best. Like, I'll never wear sweatpants and a t-shirt out to go shopping. I'm always well dressed, no matter how shitty I feel.

My eldest step-son is subject to endless bullying. In grade 9, these kids purposely pushed him into a wooden fence from behind. They filmed it in an attempt to make a viral video*.

I hope no one ever takes a photo of me, posts on 4Chan or Reddit and says, "This is why fat chicks shouldn't wear sweater dresses" or some such.
