OUT OF HERE WITH YOUR FRENCH MEASUREMENTS

THIS IS MURICA

I can't speak for the OP, but I think the campaign was developed as a specific response to a spate of rapes of women. So it's directed towards combating the kind of culture that asserts that drunk women are 'asking for it' and so on, and that men shouldn't call out their mates for harassing women ('bros before hoes,…

Honestly, reading over some of these comments has me feeling like some people are trying to find ways to piss themselves off about these ads.

"Our society is not a meritocracy.. Let's fix it by making it less of a meritocracy!"

I am successful in spite of my color.

Equal opportunity isn't a reality and never will be a reality unless we are all genetically engineered as clones and raised in isolation tanks. It's a fool's errand to try to give everyone the same starting plank. We are all advantaged, we are all disadvantaged, in various combinations. We should try to help those…

Sometimes the only thing more dangerous than an answer is another question!

Class based is the way to go.

Because she had white privilege duh! I agree Jezebel is convincing a whole generation of women that they are racist because they were born white and should be apologetic for it for the rest if their lives. Well if I teach my 3 year old white, *privileged* daughter nothing else in my lifetime with her it will be that…

jen: "Black people are less well-off than white people in the States. That is a fact that you can't deny."

These are facts:

Legality has little to do with logics or ethics.

isnt: ""Until people of color are no longer impacted by institutional disadvantages, this is a necessary system." You win and this should have been the only response from SCOTUS."

I'll admit, I have no sympathy or empathy for her.

If this were a story about Christina Aguilera allegedly getting a black eye from crazy Britney fans you would write a 2,000+ word article about how it's the patriarchy's fault for making them sex symbols and brainwashing women to hate other women and a bunch of other shit like that.

Throw in not having a large chest on top of being fat and short, and you've got my disproportionate trifecta of "I'm never finding anything that fits me ever again."

Agreed. And certainly, it's easier to get thrift shop clothes if you're a 'regular' size, especially vintage. And lots of ethical companies don't make larger sizes, although they're not likely to be that cheap. It seems that the real trick to being able to purchase ethically-produced clothing seems to be '1. Be…

So you like white tears? That's interesting. Do other black people want white people to suffer?

This is true and leads to a historical tie. However, again, not necessarily the same thing. I have black friends who grew up in quite affulent neighborhoods, and make fun of me for growing up in a literal ghetto. I also don't necessarily claim my ties to hip-hop and the like (though, some of my childhood matches to…
