should have been banned on the basis of those shoes alone

Skeletons should not be models.
I find it hard to believe that she is just now realizing the pressure women are under to look good. How could she have lived in that house with those women and NOT seen the lengths to which her daughters have to go to be “beautiful”? Or the constant criticism that they faced on a huge scale? She’s JUST NOW realizing,…
brought up an exceedingly famous male standup comic who has a long history of being gross with women that in the industry is willing to talk about.
on the bright side, we all share jeans.
This. Thank you. She poses in a leotard on the cover of a magazine for glam shots after extensive plastic surgery, and we’re supposed to be shocked that people comment on her looks?
we’ve cum so far, but we still have far to go.
I dunno, I’ll still take equal pay over that tbh. :|
I dunno, I feel like Stewart is straining for a point here. Caitlyn has not yet proven herself to be smarter or kinder or more athletic or better at business or whatever than she was when she was called Bruce. Literally all we know is that she’s presenting as a woman now, looks great, and seems happy. What else are…
Not to mention she can no longer use most of the facilities at her own country club, where she has been a member for over a decade. http://www.tmz.com/2015/06/02/cai… Welcome to the sisterhood, girl!
Yeah but now she can have multiple orgasms so who is the real winner here
At a very corporate job I had once, I had the opportunity to work very closely with one of the more “likeable” and “popular” guys in my department. So I studied him to see what he had that I didn’t, as I’ve always had issues being an outlier and “the office weirdo.” Eventually it became clear that what he had that I…
I’m a boy. I am currently winding down a run of therapy for the need to be likable and pleasing to others. Some of us fall into that trap as well, but I’m a feminist too so I figure it’s a good trade off.
Yes! I know Adichie isn’t saying you should be a raging bitch to everyone all the time, and I totally get and agree with what she is saying: girls and women are encouraged to tie our self-worth to what other people think of us, and consequently we spend way too much time trying to change and conceal and lie about what…
Well for the internet I’ve got it down pat. Now just to transfer that skill set to real life...
Would it be a crazy suggestion that we instead also make boys obsess about being likable?
I’ve never been particularly likeable so this resonates with me. I mean, not in a “poor me, I wish I were more likeable way” but in the sense that some people are attractive according to societal standards and others are not. I’m just not that flavor of person that draws people to them. It takes a long time to…
I like the basic idea here, but the truth is that a lot of your success in life depends on how people see you. I lost the best job I ever had because my boss thought I lacked energy and bemoaned my introverted qualities. I can’t afford to let my true self out in my public life because people in my working life haven’t…
Black male here. The Kappa’s (black frat) were DYING for me to pledge. I flat told them, “I am not taking an ass whipping just to hang with a bunch of brothers who I may or may not like. Sorry.”
