I got a call yesterday from some poor unfortunate phone bank volunteer looking for support of the DCCC. I went off on the guy about how throwing women under the bus to win elections is going to cost him the support of a lot of women.

I was studying for comps and had broken it off with my longtime ex a few months before. A friend and I tried okcupid to find people to date.I met this guy who I had a lot in common with. I told him I really liked him but that I was in between comps and a Fulbright application and that I wasn’t looking to get…

My husband was my first Match.com date. I didn’t even pay, just used a free trial. I was unemployed and had recently moved back from China and was wearing a Goodwill mink coat and it still worked out!

No, see, if a man is upset it’s because some outside force is affecting him, “stressing” him. Who knows why women get upset. /s

There are times when I wonder how the various GMG sites are connected at all. Arguing with posters over whether or not we should tolerate “I think some people are genetically inferior and don’t deserve equal protection under the law” is one of those times where I wish I was in the black on Jezebel instead of just…

Hey now, that’s not emotion we’re witnessing. Just their natural, manly domination.

For fucks sake. If you found a pro segregation candidate you could probably win a few more votes in certain places.

Accurate. I love it when a guy angrily yells something about how ‘women are so emotional!’ And you’ yelling right now because you’re feeling nothing/in control , hmm?

Some of the comments on the Google memo debacle are giving me hives.

Hi, I see you live in my brain. Years of therapy and Captain Awkward have gotten me pretty good at having tough conversations like a responsible adult, but years of female socialization and gender roles still have me worried that expressing myself via tough conversations and using my words makes me needy and obsessive…

I’d wager that women handle stress WAYYYYYYYYYYY BETTER than men can. That one really bowled me over too.

Apparently stress only describes what men feel MrsBatman. What women experience is just “emotion” and hysteria.

Not surprised, as I was paraphrasing at least 3 different comments I read over there. It was a good/bad reminder that it’s not a great idea to wade into the comment area of Gizmodo on any topic that’s related to politics or social issues.

You’d never see so many “this guy is making logical arguments, how dare you not recognize that and just call out its racism instead!” comments out of the greys on Jez.

I’m quite glad I got to that one late when all those guys had already been thoroughly trounced by other commenters.

Thanks for the address, I thought about this and it’s bullshit that this compromise will help them win anything.

They’re really at a loss in terms of what the fuck to do, huh? They really can’t find their asses,not even with help of a flashlight. It’s incredibly disheartening.

Hey, Jezzies! It’s been a bit of a shit week, since I got dumped on Tuesday by the man I thought was waiting for me back in DC. He “met someone”, apparently, and are going to “try being exclusive”. It’s funny, because I thought I was someone.
