I have a story you will love. I know Sean very well and he has always been a dick. Many years ago my best friend and I used to prank call him for hours just to wind him up and hear him scream. We were merciless.

I went to see a screening of the second Boondock Saints film (for all its deep and obvious flaws, I have an abiding fondness for the original, entirely because of the gorgeous men and all the homoeroticism) that included a panel discussion with Troy Duffy and a few of the actors afterward. The move was so awful I…

There are specific reasons why a city councilor will ask questions that are in the packet, or that they already know the answers to: so the public can HEAR the answers from city officials themselves. I do this regularly, because it is common that while we read the packet, the public may not have and are coming to the…

I’m reminded of the very first episode of Mad Men when the secretaries were all trying out lipsticks for a company’s market testing. All the men watched Peggy sit and wait because she didn’t pick out a lipstick. One of the characters said (may be paraphrasing, this was a while ago), watching the wheels turn in her…

That is the reason I support quotas. I know people hate quotas but I still think just having that role model can help a ton.

Where are you pulling this information? She tweeted, “White people, slavery is a *YALL* thing.”

With FOX and the Washington Times bringing their tiny little hands

“The girl in the photo is a white girl so clearly nothing about race.” Hmmm. Yes, because “being white” isn’t about race, whereas being anything but white is all about race. White privilege means that white people don’t have to worry about race, right? So as long as we just look at white people and talk about white…

Right: “Im the kind of feminist who writes about feminism professionally but also is like ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ about publicly mocking the crotch care purchases of a notable, annoying woman.”

I’ll admit that woman made a pretty stupid statement, and the state of the American educational system is fucked, but goddamn, I’m tickled pink to read a comment from a German who, without a trace of irony or self-awareness, states that he wants someone arrested for saying what she thinks. Great shit, man. Thanks for…

I had all the classy fucked out of me years ago. Never felt better. I recommend.

Having a child does seriously affect your education and career opportunities - this isn’t about how to AVOID abortion. It’s about how to free young women from body policing.

“In 2015, telling young women that it’s their responsibility to keep chaste and virginal in order to retain their “character” is just plain irresponsible.”

While it’s true that having sex turns young women into indecisive, thoughtless, cold-hearted liars, they got it totally wrong on “versatile.” Post-virginity-loss, I’m practically a human Swiss Army knife! #TheMoreYouHo

“Forgive me please, but that’s what you get when you play with people’s emotions.”

What, are you going to start giving me only .78 of a star now?

The shame and creep factor in these stories are heartbreaking, but what struck me the most was how many stories involved girls having to give up activities because of sexual attention/harassment from older men. This is why women end up having to try harder. They get discouraged from activities, sports, etc. from such…

Since we all might need a slightly happier tale, here’s a great response teachers can have when alerted to this, via a PE coach I had in sixth grade. I switched schools halfway through the year to escape bullying, and on my first day at the new one I was trying not to make waves. During PE I was just kind of hanging…

The kids in my school commented on my breasts or my butt or whatever, but it was largely age-appropriate. There were one or two really, really gross older men in my parents’ social circle when I was in the seventh grade ... I was overweight by the eighth.

In a conversation about why people do the things they do with a…
