For the record, implicit in the idea that trans people should be allowed to participate in sports according to their gender identity is that sports should still be separated by gender (I generally agree with both propositions).  So what exactly is the point of this question?  Who thinks sports should not be separated…

WTF?  If the pill does not work for you then DO NOT TAKE IT.  Use something else.  The pill worked for me for as long as I needed to worry about contraception.  I realized after the fact that I stopped having migraines as often when I wasnt on the pill but a migraine is nothing compared to the headache of an unwanted…

*Talks about ignoring communities while objectifying disabled bodies to prop up weak arguments* you need to take your own advice and actually listen to affected communities instead of parroting back what you read on Jezebel and decided is your own opinion.

Yeah, you shouldn’t have. When you know your argument is shit, and moreover, OFFENSIVE, it’s probably best you keep your mouth shut.

The whole “you can’t comment about this because its a ‘black space’” take is so much BS. This is about machismo, control, and violence. 

Take note - Jezebel thinks white people shouldn't condone public acts of violence. What a shameful take. 

Do you really think that you’re any more involved in this than anyone else who’s not Will, Jada, or Chris? You’re just as outside of all this as the millions of other people sharing opinions and making jokes.

This happened at the Oscars in front of a live audience and the entire world saw it. The entire world is allowed to have an opinion, sorry if that pisses you off. You don’t have to agree with what people say and god knows there’s been a lot of hypocrisy and hot takes and people should think twice before making their…

If the GMG websites want to tell me I’m not supposed to have thoughts about something sensational that happened on one of the biggest stages in the world between two A-list actors, they can bring their argument to me or they can stop writing about the incident altogether.  These are gossip websites-the whole point is…

It’s contextual.

The weird thing is that if this had been say Neve Campbell’s white male husband slapping Chris Rock, the exact people on Twitter now defending Will Smith would be decrying this of proof of like “white people’s entitlement to be violent toward black people”.

This is such vague passive aggressiveness that I can’t even tell which part of what I said got under your skin. You either think Black women make this too much of a big deal or people with alopecia don’t matter in this conversation. Either way - weird thing to feel bothered about.

I get the “we’ll (POC) take care of our own and don’t need you (white folks) telling us what to do” line of thought, but this incident happened at an industry function in front of a worldwide audience of 16+ million people. If Brad Pitt had been on stage making tasteless jokes about Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck charg…

It’s such a weird divisive take on what happened. Someone can be an asshole regardless of gender, race, socioeconomic status etc. I think what Will Smith did was stupid and made him look like an asshole. Do I think all black people are stupid assholes? No.

Why aren’t white people supposed to be talking about this? I’m really asking-I keep seeing allusions to this and I don’t understand why something that happened on the Oscars is off limits to white people, who are mainly the people who watch/attend the Oscars.

It wasn’t mentioned in the article, but I don’t pass up a chance to say this: Megan Thee Stallion is an upstanding citizen and should probably be considered a role model for everyone. Despite a thriving (and growing) musical career, celebrity, money, etc., she still went back to school to finish a degree in a…

I’m so glad I wasn’t the only one that thought, who cares? Even if she did make it up. How is this a big enough deal to get HR involved? Are we really becoming this puritanical?

Yeah, I don’t get why this is a problem. 

Why would her TV bosses care? I can understand why the magazines that published her essays would care since they are presented as fact and not fiction, but what she writes/wrote for Grey’s is fiction. *scratches head**

So, a writer just made stuff up and put it in a pretend show about pretend people in pretend situations. Isn’t that, you know, writing?
