Nothing has to be neutral or lifeless - just realistic. The way the Destiny characters sit is a good example. We wouldn't expect a character to stand on its head but we accept this lounge position because of sexist stereotypes. If the character did stand on its head, we would expect an explanation or context. What was…

I don't even like Anita. I think a lot of her citations lack actual research and show that she's got only a surface-level understanding of how games work. Or that she has a team doing her research for her and takes what they tell her at face value and makes an argument off of that.

This! Taking that course gave me the confidence to say no to a lo of stuff but mainly it gave me the courage to stand up to my abusive ex when he hit me.

OMG I hate that. I literally study the subway floor if I don't have a book in front of me to avoid this exact thing. "OMG! She looked at me! Does she want my penis? Maybe she wants my penis. I should go over there and offer my penis, just to be sure."

OMG they could be sisters <3

Pics please! Well she's a mutt but I think she must be a bit labrador and maybe a bit pitbull.

I'm wondering if I should start training my puppy. She runs like the wind and jumps higher than a rabbit. Maybe she has a future in dog shows?

I need help reacting to this.

And once again why I wish we could get adaptions of works by Jacqueline Carey or Elizabeth Moon or such who know how to create fantastic female characters who work well with the plot and drive it on instead of just reacting to events.

Yeah I think it was in my Facebook feed where someone was complaining about Missy Elliot being in the SB halftime show, specifically that she "hasn't done anything new for a decade" and someone else said "well probably because she's been dropping the proverbial mike for a decade and nobody can get close enough to pick…

I haven't seen these videos in forever, and I'm really struck with how fucking awesome and progressive Missy Elliot is/was. I mean, "Work It" is a pretty sexy song, and it's sung by a woman who is not only outside the cultural beauty standard, but equal parts masculine and feminine. I can't name another artist who…

Sure, when RBG is tipsy at a work function, she's "living her best life," but when I do it, I'm "on my second strike."

I was there last night. The entire event was great except for Nina being a fun killing scold. Probably the second best RBG anecdote was her story about her "lively" son, James. She told us how she would often get calls to visit the school for disciplinary reasons. Finally, one morning after pulling an all nighter (as…

Oh Little Lulu, I love you-lu just the same!

Mmmmm normally i'd agree (especially where sheep, dogs etc are involved) but this isn't the only story i've seen about a dolphin trying it on with a human, and i do agree it'd be pretty damn hard to rape a dolphin unless you strap it down or something.

I freaking love that guy. Somewhere in the recesses of my mind, whenever someone talks about a Gambit movie being made, I think that they've completely missed any opportunity to get it right, because he was really the only one who could do the role justice. Get outta here with your shitty Channing Tatum Gambit, Fox.…

I am going to break with what a lot of other people are saying. I have my own interpretation of Harley and I actually prefer some of her more recent versions because they present a more complex version of her character. Bear in mind all of this is my own interpretation, which may be contradicted by statements from her…

I seriously bust out laughing so hard at the Clooney joke. So much better than the Cosby joke, which Fey already did on Weekend Update all those years ago. But the Cosby joke was about the courage in presenting it in the first place, so I'm totally behind that, too. :)

as long as I am not running into walls.

I thank my lucky stars every day I found an Actual Feminist. What's so interesting about it, is that is stemmed from the fact that he was raised by a single father. He grew up hearing comments like "Your boys are so CLEAN!" and "I bet it's microwave pizza every night for you guys". He said he was a very defensive…
