Remember, a woman’s role in the reproductive process is to incubate a small human (which gains a soul immediately upon the sperm meeting the egg), and must be cherished and protected and saved from herself should she decide that she does not wish to use her body to incubate another human being.

I am experiencing (maybe witnessing?) significant cognitive dissonance at everyone talking about how awful reddit is, when gawker media as a whole, including all sites—writers and commenters—while having many positives—isn’t exactly a fount of enlightened thought.

I love r/fantasy and r/dragonage. I spend way too much time there.

As a mostly non-drinker, i’m just focusing on what 5 shots of vodka would do to a non-drinker. I’d be on the floor after that.

wait.

Actually, the basics of having a convo include responding to the other person. You asked a question, I took the time to reply nicely, you came back at me with a non-sequitur. That’s not cool.

I SAVE BREAD!

I imagine she expects some of her followers to look at themselves and be like, “Yes, yes, Alyssa Milano. I see exactly what you mean. *clicks unfollow* I’ll so miss our time together, here on the Twitter.”

Sigh. My liking of Pratt ended quickly after reading about his hunting and the condescending reply to people after getting rid of his cat. (Granted, he was catching some unpleasant flak, but take the high road, man). Each interview he gives seems to dig that hole a little deeper, for me at any rate.

SHE IS NOT BLACK. IT WILL JUST BE REGULAR OLD BLACKFACE BECAUSE THAT IS WHAT SHE IS DOING. Seriously. You just typed “acceptable blackface”. And you also commented on how we need to have empathy for this woman. You have some soul searching to do.

I’m torn because while I agree with this...in fact I was pretty pissed that I’ve had friends completely erase my bisexuality and make it seem like any time I expressed my interest in women that I was doing it for attention....and now they all seem to be jumping on the “omg look at me questioning my sexuality lolol”…

One Million Moms can go fuck themselves, but what is with all the spoon licking. Given the scarcity of representation of gay and lesbian families, Chobani is laying the yoghurt on too thick by oversexualizing this couple.

She’s not a con artist and I’m not a skin-suit operated by sentient bees.

I’m about as socially liberal as they come

Nope. Best practices for suicide reporting recommend not using “committed,” which sounds like a crime or, to religious communities, like a sin, and “kill yourself” is just insensitive, crude, and poorly phrased. “Died by suicide” is the phrasing recommended by mental health professionals and the American Foundation…

The older I get, and the more stories like this I see, I am more convinced there is no god.

You’re so right, the abusive parents are the real victims. The dead girl, whatever.

Why the fuck would you provide the link to the video? Ugh.

In context it makes a bit more sense, given the family dynamic she’s coming from. There are plenty of trans women who don’t play that game-I don’t wear makeup and my wardrobe would probably be best described as “functional”. But, with that said, it’s a very dangerous world for most trans women. Oftentimes “prettying…

Great point, except that this is actually a very old story.
