I'm not surprised that Lorde weighed in on the topic. This sort of exhibitionism was frowned upon back when she was a teenager.

Well played, Met.

legitimate mattresses have ways of shutting that down.

Imagine how exhausted people who have been dealing with this their whole lives (women) must be.

Nope. You're just saying she doesn't know sexism when she experiences it. You know better.

Does he does this to other men, too? I think a lot of men just do this as a matter of course

Seriously, I'm so fucking sick that dynamic. And it happens almost ubiquitously.

People who don't think there's a time and a place for mayo are just objectively wrong. I wasn't even raised on it (I didn't have it until I was 20) and even I know that.

I don't trust people who say that they don't like mayonnaise. It's like saying, "I don't like weekends" or "I don't like fun."

Also, Duke's or Blue Plate forever.

I'm guessing the goal of these mass sterilizations of women is ethics in Indian journalism.

"My sister-in-law, let's call her Satan"

All abusers see themselves as the victim.

But now those pumpkins have rotten,

Not to mention news of her being found is almost 24 hours old.

I think this is an interesting point. Men of colour use their voices with me. White men use their bodies with me.

As a queer woman of colour the street harassment that I find myself on the receiving end of varies by demographic and frankly, for me, the most terrifying kind is the silent and hostile kind practiced by white men.

I haven't put my finger on exactly why, but your story from the tattoo shop has me livid right now. Even more so than hearing/reading other stories harassment. I think it's because he didn't even acknowledge you. Like, you weren't even worth acknowledging. You were merely an object that he could touch at will. Layers…

On Tuesday, while waiting as my tattoo artist prepped her station before inking me, a white man leaving the parlor/gallery with his girlfriend came up behind me and ran his hands through my afro.

This was the line that did my in too!

She's trying to help them out but then she gets really tired!
