It’s an interesting choice of words for the reasons they explore above—that the pain of rape never leaves your body.

So your argument is that your point is irrelevant?? You said there were plenty of women’s nipples on tv (not really true, it’s not even close to the equivalent of men’s and to point out that like fucking game of thrones or something has boobs is just so besides the point). I’m saying on this show they blur women’s…

They blur lady nipples on botched.

A former “friend” flipped out when I showed her boyfriend my mastectomy scar. One of the many reasons she a former friend.

Woman-nipples are inherently less ok than man-nipples, and apparently the fact that they’re meant to look feminine is less important than the fact that they’re attached to a cis man.

Exactly. AMerican horror story: female nipples too extreme. Man getting anally raped by a person with a giant metal screw dildo- no big deal.

There are plenty of women’s nipples on premium cable but that’s not the same as basic cable. Even American Horror Story (which is arguably the most explicit show on basic cable) had to cover up Gaga’s nipples with pasties.

Wat? I said I watch the show. They blurr out nipples and crotches all the time. I wasn’t making an argument against showing nudity. I think it’s prudish not to, and I was pointing out the double standard (agreeing with the comment I replied to).

Botched is on E. You can’t show tits on E. Apparently, though, you can’t show FEMALE tits on E. Tits on a man are suddenly not vulgar. Go figure.

Come on, Bobby. Let’s have some decency here.

Why is he allowed to show his nipples? Man has boobs and he's not trying to breastfeed anyone so I see zero reason why this is ok if it's not ok for me to let my natural God made breasts out.

I once had an Italian boss. He simultaneously proclaimed he was a champion for women because he had two daughters and sexually harrased me.

Yet men belong everywhere they want to go, of course; and only improve whatever domain they inhabit.

Yeah, I got the impression that while his legacy is a bit mixed (for example, he was not so cool with the gays and lesbians) overall Castro accomplished a great many positive things. And Cuba before Castro seemed to suck for most Cubans (I’m assuming gays and lesbians, too). It’s not my place to say, because I am not…

This^

Right?! At least Cubans got health care for the last 50 yrs. Also, I'm pretty sure the misery was the result of American foreign policy regarding Cuba.

IDK, I think his economic policies have been better for Cuba than what the U.S. would otherwise have wanted. Just look at Puerto Rico

He’s much admired in the third world

Like a popular leader doing his best for his country under difficult circumstances. And being instrumental in defeating apartheid. And fighting against corporate dominance of Latin America. And promoting universal literacy, universal health care, and women’s equality.

Is Jezebel an extreme right wing site now? Fidel is admired in most of the world.
