I seriously do not understand the amount of people who think there's nothing wrong with a 30 year old deliberately having sex with 16 year olds. You don't think there's something off about someone that age pursuing teenagers? Is it because they're boys? Because it's starting to look a lot like the same problematic…

Dear DelectablyChic,

Whatever, you will pry peter pan collars out of my cold dead hands because they are fucking FLATTERING. Ditto modern retro style, I look terrible in most anything else. Just not built for mainstream, so sorry.

Usually it's a Twitter hashtag about once a month.

I think some of it might still be in the #CalmYourTits hashtag. At a certain point you just have to be like, whatever, let's make it fun! :}

Whoops! It's all here: http://www.hobbitshop.com/?ref=GGLHOBB

Yeah, that became really obvious really fast. The amount of people using the same bad argument was like, yeah, no, you really don't get the issue here. It was interesting, if tiring. :}

Thanks. It's one of those things where I know it intellectually, but it still kind of blows when it gets aimed at you. On the other hand, I've been pretty lucky and not gotten nearly the shit some other feminist bloggers have, so you know, perspective. :}

Sure! It's SquidyGirl.blogspot.com. The latest posts are on what I talked about here. :}

If anyone else is a huge LOTR/Hobbit geek like I am, there are some AWESOME products that just came out. Like a Bag End door iphone case, maps, and a slew of new tees. I could buy my entire wardrobe from there...especially since I work from home and wearing Hobbit tees every day of the week is less weird then.

That person seriously needs to check out Blogging While Female, Men Call Me Things, Fat, Ugly or Slutty...or like any feminist on Twitter for a good dose of what it's like out there. Or maybe go online as a lady and see what happens on various male-dominated sites.

The thing is, there's a reason for laws like that. So that adults (which a 32 year old definitely is) can't take advantage of teens and children with the excuse that they "wanted it" because the point is that it's the adults responsibility, not the child's. No 32 year old needs to have sex with a 15 year old. Any…

::eyeroll:: Yes, and I am aware that the parties have shifted to be the opposite of what they were originally founded to be, thanks. You don't need to be obnoxious about it. I meant the MODERN versions, which have twisted and contorted themselves even further. For at least the last 50-60 years the Republican party has…

Ugh, EVERYONE who isn't suicidal or homicidal is pro-life, dude. That is not a position on abortion, it's a shitty rhetorical label.

I suspect context matters a lot. I don't know the circumstances the OP met him under, so it may just be that he's not super personable outside of limited scenes. But there are totally appropriate places for signing requests and things and ones that aren't. Even at something like SDCC which is a huge and obviously…

I'm pretty sure all the stores have melded Thanksgiving and Christmas into the behemoth holiday: Thanksmas. It has nothing to do with turkeys or giving, it's just about OMG can you believe this sweater is on sale? It's really ugly but it's on SALE! (that actually happened. A girl with her friend was all "this is so…

I wish more people were looking at the original article. It makes it really clear that Jackson et al are not okay with this. And I can't stand PETA. They want to rid the world of pets and kill animals. They're awful.

The check makeup on Aguilera is distractingly odd. Like, it's not blush, I guess it's contouring? Whatever, I think it's strange.

No, she emphatically did NOT say it's inherent or imply it. Please reread the 3rd paragraph and subsequent points. She is talking very specifically how we APPLY gender to these things.

No, because that's what the movement actually is. They do not want women to have the choice between carrying to term or not. They are against most choice, with maybe a few exceptions (although it's be shown by their own documents that the ultimate goal of the anti-choice movement is No Abortions At All). That means…
