Yeah. I also read more white when I'm out with my white friends. So there you go. I read as less white at work. White guys talk down to me/assume I'm bringing coffee, men of color make uncomfortable advances/comments in creepy contexts.**

What is frustrating to me about this whole debacle is that, once again, a woman's issue is being reframed as a talk about men. Just paragraphs and paragraphs about men and who is harassing and their race and just every possible permutation of that and racism against men of color and white male privilege etc, etc.

I literally don't get why Danny and Mindy are dating. Am I the only one who doesn't see any chemistry?

What MTV show?

Held out and then finally downloaded it today. Girl knows her way around a good pop song.

Isn't that one of the criticisms of Mother Theresa? I'm too tired to do some full research, but I remember it being said that she provided substandard care to the poor due to her belief that suffering brought grace.

lololol. My favorite part about this is this terrifying assumption that, "Oh no, how will I talk to women??" I dunno, how about the way every other guy does? I've had perfectly nice conversations with strangers on public transit about the books I'm carrying, goings on the train, traffic, weather, that sort of stuff.…

I think I can explain this!

Dude, I dunno. I think there's a fine line between understanding the roots of misogyny vs. excusing it. You're treading a little on the wrong side of that one. If the misogyny/misogynoir in Snoop's work are just "some song lyrics," then aren't the racist lyrics/aspects of Iggy Azalea's work also just "some song…

You know, I have a wedding in a couple weeks, and they were running out of some of the dresses I liked in my (admittedly common) sizes.

Sorry, this may be dumb, but I've always understood evolution to be directional or "best" in the sense that it's producing the most fit organism for the environment. So maybe it's not making us more spiritual or more "special"...but you could still say that all these environmental factors and mutations came about in…

I do have a boyfriend; it's not an excuse or a lie. He was there with me that night and had stepped out for a couple seconds. My point was that, even under those conditions, guys can still be jerks. I AM communicating. They are the ones who are not being adults and responding to clear, unambiguous, signals.

Worst part? I do have a boyfriend. He was outside at the moment. The dude kept hanging around even after he came back to be mean to me. :/

I once told a dude that and his response was "I don't believe you." Seriously. If a lady gives you that line, that means she's not into it. Otherwise she wouldn't have given you that line.

Thank god he was so stupid.

I've figured out that the only way I'll survive is if I develop some sort of skill that will lead others to become invested in my well-being. Like being a EMT or a marksman.

Someone said in the comments that they felt bad for her because they were "so revealing." I clicked on some ones (out of a "how embarrassed would I be?" curiosity) that I thought were censored. They weren't and I still feel bad about it. :/

Jessa when she was writing this:

This is some Grey's Anatomy shit (actually, I'm pretty sure there was an episode about this very topic). I actually find it crazy that it isn't treatable—maybe the treatments are too drastic (would remove orgasm function entirely) to be worthwhile options?

YES! So wonderful. She is so tiny though, I could never pull off the backless, no support look.
