Feminism has nothing to do with wearing high heels or not, except maybe the argument that women should be able to choose whatever kind of footwear they like. In fact, real feminists would argue that men should be able to wear all the stilettos they want because equality is what matters.
The worst thing is (well not the worst thing, this whole debacle is horrific) her videos on gaming were remarkably free of judgement on the part of the gamers themselves, she highlighted issues and neither stated they existed everywhere uniformly or vilified those who enjoy games. She raised some interesting topics so…
Exactly!! You're so right and I didn't even realize it before. sarkeesian isn't a radical feminist by any stretch- What she believes in is pretty simple. Her ideas aren't so controversial that she has to construct a complex argument to support them.
If the people directing these threats were brown and/or directed at men instead of women.. I can't help but imagine the swift retribution that would follow from Three Letter Government Agencies. This would be decried as terrorism instead of just "pissed off teenagers on the internet". There would be laws proposed…
I agree that this is just another type of body pressure - but I also think it's great that muscles are more accepted, even desirable, on women now - that we're (painfully slowly) moving away from the masses accusing any woman with muscle definition of being "manly"! A good friend of mine is really into weightlifting…
More like they appreciate the holiday pay to help earn some extra cash around the most expensive time of year. Stop lying to us Macys.
Restaurant people hate you too, especially after you come in, take up their time and space and then say you can't leave a tip because you spent all your money Black Friday shopping. Fuck all of you.

Well, at least now I have a tangible reason to hate Blake Lively? :-|
Sorry, the best character was Mimi who was badass enough to immigrate to the US, learn English as an adult, encourage Claudia's artistic talents, teach Mary Anne how to knit, and tolerate Janine.
I idolized Claudia. She was clearly the best with her "almond shaped eyes and jet black hair".
As someone who cosplays- please ask. If I'm already stopped, unless I have somewhere to be in a huge hurry, I almost certainly am willing to wait an additional 30-60 seconds for you to snap the photos you want! You shouldn't be afraid to stop someone in that sort of situation, since they're already open to being…
All the ways people will say it's her fault:
This week is Waffle Week in my house. On Monday, I made Waffle Pizzas for dinner. Last night, it was green chile cornbread waffles with soup. Tonight, I am making Falafel Waffles. I never knew the endless possibilities of my waffle iron!
Some people turn vegan for ideological reasons and still miss the taste / texture of all the non-vegan food. Can you really blame them for that?
Oh, that's actually quite sweet! But seriously: you're of an age now when you can wear whatever the hell colour you want and it's your decision. It's the fact that — as you point ut too — the pink sparkles are so pushed onto little girls — and teens too — (with few alternatives) that makes my blood boil.
Batman's wife: Take out the garbage please.
He's just like a regular dude, but super jacked, with a bow. Plus he can hit any target, if you know what I mean:
I will hate TLC forever for giving these people a platform to spew their bullshit everywhere.
