Um, she completely acknowledged that her behaviour with other men when she coyly said no was concerning and likely why such situations like this came up. She’s even saying she’s teaching her own daughter about enthusiastic consent in hopes the next generation learns that sex by coercion is inexcusable. I think your…

I think it is what it looks like and I hope he can find real happiness one day.

I do not doubt that Jordan is the world’s biggest Celine Dion fan.

Ehh I was all ready to agree with that, until I watched the clip. He was obviously much better than her and much more compelling. I think it was more that she wasn’t a strong enough performer to hold their attention against the baby and husband.

So both of these people are insufferable, but it’s so weird that literally everything they didn’t like about her (lightness, distracting family) was positive and inspiring when he stepped up. I’d be mad too if I was her, but in less of a “why can’t I ever be good enough” way and in more of a “that’s some internalized…

I read those allegations and am thoroughly convinced. So she had not two but three out of wedlock bebes.

So FOB’s goal was to get me to rewatch the NSYNC vid instead of theirs, right? Because that’s definitely what I’m doing now. Also, I was at a parade last year and Lance Bass waved to me from his float throne. He didn’t wave to my spouse, or my friends, or the dozens of others around us. He waved to me. This might not…

Because all three suddenly “up and dying” at once in the like 7 hour period you were at school, with no warning signs, is suspect as fuck?

I know this is not going to be a popular opinion and maybe I am not thinking hard enough (or too hard, can’t decide) but I think the point of the song is that she is also pointing out how fucked up the baby fetish is.

I don’t consider cake or mac and cheese “garbage food.” In moderation, there is absolutely nothing wrong with sugar or fat in your diet. If you don’t like cake, no worries! No one is forcing you to eat it. If you don’t want any of my mac and cheese casserole, I won’t be offended. But calling them garbage is heaping a…

I think the cake was an example of a food that you enjoy once in a while that isn’t necessarily healthy. Obviously it’s not an indulgence for you if you hate it. Is there anything else you indulge in that fits that description? Because if there is, that would be your 'cake'.

Can I just talk about how much I love Love + Radio for a moment? It is true that Love + Radio is like the grittier sister of This American Life. TAL is well-produced storytelling that you’ll probably learn something from. Love + Radio is like real, raw, magic, and a glimpse inside the head of someone you would have…

Yes. This is exactly why everyone who is saying “oh but I dance like that alone in the shower” just does. not. get. it.

When girls alone are trying to dance sexily, and most of them are heterosexual (statistically), whose potential gaze are they practicing being sexy for?

Yeah, I definitely don’t:
(1) Grab my titties and wave ‘em around
(2) Grab my friends’ asses and creepily rub their thigh and leg
(3) Wear that much friggin’ make-up

if I’m dancing at home for me.

That said, big ol’ shout out to the thick girl with the shaved head— she thinks the male gaze can go suck it.

Yeah, I had mixed feelings when I read that line as well. I think it’s such a nuanced issue, that a single throwaway sentence can’t possibly accurately capture what’s going on with male gaze in the video.
