It is 15 years of American popular culture wrapped up in a single, perfect image.

I think (as someone who has no authority in the subject) it is acceptable for people to practice yoga if they acknowledge it has more religious components and history, than pilates does. I would also advice yoga teachers to avoid using sanskrit if they do not understand what those terms actually translate to.

Also, don’t boys need a space for themselves? I think it’s OK. They need it too.

These girls couldn’t be doing this with the encouragement and support of their parents.

Cookie buyers.

Yeah, I totally believe that whoever started the petition didn’t actually understand what they were offended by. It’s just a knee-jerk reaction to a stupid joke, and they made sure they threw in all the obligatory buzzwords to convey appropriate internet outrage. In reality, almost nobody cares.

Can we please not make “comparing things that are not blackface to blackface” a thing? I generally support the sentiment of this boycott but that’s just offensive. Don’t try to prop up your own arguments by using shock tactics, it’s like the people that compare everything to hitler. It’s lazy(like the writing in this…

I just really don’t get Miley. Like it’s not “sexy” but it’s super sexual - it’s a bit how I imagine it would be watching porn you’re really not into. Like you get that it’s supposed to do something to you but in the end it’s like watching two nuns wearing Margaret Thatcher masks getting it on and nothing…

can’t imagine someone would say “so you licked her pussy and you are not even going to kiss her?

That’s bizarre, so you’ll suck his dick in the night, but a morning Kiss is gross because you don’t know him?

Don’t even want to be held all night by my husband. Men are like human blast furnaces and in the summer in the south noooo thank you.

You can certainly make that argument, and there’s plenty of evidence to back it up. Converesely, when my neighborhood was devastated by Hurricane Sandy, the first ones here feeding people were religious groups - Catholic Charities, Knights of Columbus, a group from a Sikh temple. A Buddhist organization gave away $500…

The problem is that “Christianity” isn’t a religion - it’s a family of religions, in the sense that many different Christians have entirely different worldviews and behaviors compared to one another. And while certainly some of them are rather backwards in their personal religions, other are certainly not.

I’m Chinese and sometimes I’ll want some bad American Chinese food. It happens. I do make sure that the whiteys around me know that what we are eating isn't really Chinese food but it still tastes good n

Ha, #notallnuns. Tell us about the well-loved teacher nuns, so i can tell you about the ones my mom had who told all the kids their bodies were such a sin you shouldn’t even look down at yourself in the shower, or not use a washcloth “down there” because that’s masturbation, or the ones who hit my brother. Tell us,…

I was raised Catholic and spent several years being taught by nuns in Catholic school. While most of them were unobjectionable, there were always a few who were evil scions of Hell. I’m sure they went into teaching purely to give maximum expression to their innate sadism.

in 2004, I would have really appreciated this SATC reference. now, I think those four women were just a bunch of crazies. Especially Carrie. OMG, Carrie is painful to watch now! All those pensive stares into the middle distance while strutting down the street.

Worst of all? This was the text:

Cover ourselves head to toe with what? Barb wire?
