Your comment: I like this movie, but it has this one problematic element . . .my brain is going to explode! Can’t . . handle . . .both . . . facts. . . at . . . once!

Its like that article that white woman wrote about the black women in her yoga class and how awkward they must feel to be black and heavy set in that space. :/

This is a fair point. Everyone agrees with this. But your absurd comment above suggesting that there’s no such thing as gendered attire completely undermined your credibility.

I think she dresses in a somewhat masculine way. But she doesn’t present as masculine. I also dress in a masculine way because menswear is the bomb. But that doesn’t make me masculine. I think the distinction is worth making. If someone said I dressed in a masculine way I wouldn’t be offended. But if someone told me I…

Yes, Tig doesn’t seem to wear pink lipgloss and heels. She also doesn’t seem to wear, ever: dresses, shoes marketed toward women (as opposed to gender neutral/male shoes like chucks or vans), colors socially coded as feminine (e.g. pink, purple, yellow), a purse, skirts, fitted pants, fitted shirts, low cut shirts…

I’m not defending Amy’s statement, but you’re either pedantic or stupid to think that “wearing pants” or “having short hair” by themselves make Tig present as relatively sterotypically masculine, or that Tig and Kim K or Tig and J Law present the same way because sometimes the former wears pants, and sometimes the…

You know, in life, you can like things that are problematic. Black and white thinking like yours leads to some of the greatest evils in the world. Nuance is your friend.

Intent doesn’t matter to the ant you accidently stepped on.

Yes. Correct. Because there’s a little thing called context. Hint: it matters.

Is it only a problem when white actors fill non-white roles?

The character in this instsance is literally written as an Asian kid. The only one “messing with casting choices” are the white people making everyone white. But thanks for playing.

I usually go for more in depth commentary, but in this instance it’s sufficient to say: you’re an idiot.

i am not here to argue that an animal’s life is greater than a human’s, but

Is the lack of cruelty toward the parents in this instance as compared to the gorilla incident because:

Unfortunately, I’m not wild about Hilary either.

I used to think that Trump, in his heart, leaned left too. He’s a north eastern, former supporter of abortion rights and the social saftey net and anti NRA etc etc etc. I was excited about the possibility that he might actually be good for republicans — help them break away from social issues the majority of americans…

No need to show yourself out! Warren can be a terrific positive influence and still have done a stupid/bad/ignorant thing that she deserves to get called out for.

Yes, this is a pathetic attempt at gaining sympathy, however, it’s also a facinating visual. I had no idea that a person could walk on their legs without feet or even calves. I wish we had more exposure to different types of disability so I had more understanding and didn’t feel the urge to gawk at this like an 18th…

This was a brutal and important read. I can’t imagine how hard this must have been to go through and recount. Thank you. It’s so important to share stories like this, and remind us all what we’re fighting for.
