I don’t know.

I think she IS happy. That’s why she won’t change.

Look at Mariah.

So are there no legitimate offenses, just people looking for a negative ego boost?

I like the stories here. *shrug*

It’s also at least a little funny to read something like this piece from a site with a commenting system that allows the writers to promote only those who agree with/flatter them.

Because “single editorial vision” is a huge assfuck cop out. No writer here subscribes to the ideology of Phyllis Schlafly, or is secretly posting on MRA forums about how feminists are all worthless cunts. There are no articles about the evils of abortion or blaming rape victims for getting drunk and being…

Of course it’s always easier to see the complexity in our own identities and thoughts while simultaneously simplifying and categorizing those of others, but I guess I’m not clear on how Jia’s positioning herself wrt to the notion that stating what type of feminist you are not is insufficient to indicate what kind of…

Without Airbrushing” - it started as “pink Gawker” and while it’s tried to move away from that, the recent structural changes…

are you saying, we are all just humans after all?

Not that it matters, because I’m not your target demo, but I don’t mind the offense heavy nature of the sausage making here. What bugs me is when it appears inconsistent.
