Well, you're basically saying things are just fine and dandy for women and LGBT's in Saudi Arabia. I'm perfectly willing to grant that things might be better than we tend to think they are, esp, as you point out, for those with money and family connections. But that doesn't mean things are great. Not even close.

I believe OP is talking about the co-option of legitimate gay rights and women's rights activism to advance the political status quo, that hurts everyone, including gay people and women, in the developing world. He or she is arguing that Obama's move here is not helping gay people in Uganda, rather, it's helping the…

Riiight. Everything I said is factually accurate. Including the fact that there is no penal code for rape, that women cannot divorce but merely have a much inferior form of it if they prove abuse in court, that the Mutaween or religious police enforce a dress code on women that includes covering up everything (even…

This is what I did with my Sims. I made a ridiculously attractive couple that gave birth two four equally attractive kids. With another family I also found out that if you make two really attractive people but alter the placement of their eyes, mouths, noses, etc. too much, that although they themselves are…

This is exactly what I do... unfortunately the way I play sims is the exact opposite of the way I live me life. :(

I don't know if you're really joking —or playing off your desire to revoke the 2nd as a joke to try to limit the insane gun nuts. Either is fine, but I wish liberals would argue for a repeal —even if just to move the debate further left. Fuck these gun nuts. It's mind bending that there is a right to own a killing…

God, and I thought her Marilyn Monore/President performance was all sorts of uncomfortable. Gaga needs to step away from the rape "metaphors."

Excellent use of Tyra/ANTM GIF. You win. :)

Sadly, no. Things just keep coming out and just when you think "this is the edge, can't go any farther" there's a ledge beyond the ledge. Also, Lady Gaga is officially off the artist train. That shit is just too much.

To be fair to Lady Gaga and her dog, I have found that is the usual expression most French Bulldogs seem to have regardless of their mood.

Right? Breasts, AA. Some people have big ones.

Dov Charney, has been the subject of several high-profile sexual harassment lawsuits.

"More" is one thing, but what the fuck was he doing giving her any in the first place? I'm hardly sympathetic to his defenders cries of "gold-digger!" when he was perfectly willing to treat women like whores as long as it worked to his advantage. Guess what? I don't think one is necessarily better than the other, but…

I wouldn't be surprised if it were entirely related to financial shenanigans. THAT'S something corporations won't tolerate whereas sexual harassment and discriminatory practices are just the problems of whiners and job-creator-haters.

I don't know about the specifics of the involvement with the women that came forward and filed lawsuits, but I work in the fashion industry in Los Angeles, and Dov Chaney has had a reputation in the industry as a creep since at least 2001. That goes back 13 years when the company was strictly wholesale, long before…

I don't hover. If there's a toilet that's clean, I use it. If there's not, I take one for team humanity and clean it up. I'm a microbiologist, I got over the OMG!BACTERIA a long time ago.

I HATE that this guy is using his power and influence to muscle these women into silence. Asshole. Asshole. ASSHOLE. And that woman assistant is making it seem as if everything he does is perfectly natural with these scared "is this really happening" models and passive aggressively threatening them by stating "oh,…

Thanks, but I don't buy fashion/women's mags. I stopped over 25 years ago, when I decided I didn't want to spend the rest of my life hating myself and other women.

At this point, never mind Charney—I am pissed at the Board of Directors that Charney, who at *best* can be described as an inept CEO who gets, shall we generously say, distracted, is allowed to continue in his position. What, we're supposed to be impressed that AA's financials suck less than they used to—when the…

"Yeah, we're unprofitable, but if you look at the numbers that have nothing to do with profitability then we're kind of profitable! It's a mystery why a company with me in charge of it would be in debt."
