Let me ask you this? Are you White, Rich, AND HOT* ? If you’ve answered yes to all of these questions, then America fucking owes you. If you’ve answered no to any of these questions, well you can go kick rocks!!

She’s their kind of vile for sure but she’s got a vagina so really, that made it easy for them to make an example out of her. Milo made a similar mistake in thinking the Breitbart crowd would have the back of a person they fundamentally believe is lesser.

Men sure are emotional and irrational lately. I think we need to stop letting them make statements, run things, and read the news until we can get a handle on what’s happening.

I’m not sure I understand the backlash to this comment. Nicole Kidman practically begged Jane Campion on bended knee to do Portrait of a Lady. She continually picks incredibly off the beaten path roles with nuanced (not strong, not perfect) women. I totally get her sentiment. Movie making is weird and can be super…

I’m not gonna demonize her for this, as odd as it came out. Her heart is in the right place. She seems like a good person who is willing to evolve. And with the lack of female directors getting as easy funding as men, every 18 months sounds pretty good, especially with the clout and star power she holds in…

You got to love the people in here trying to downplay blatant sexism by saying that her first movie was a flop. Guy Richie directed two huge flops in a row, Mam From Uncle and King Arthur and gets to direct Aladdin. Her film being a flop is not the issue.

I call it the Matt Damon Effect. It’s super easy to rant, rage, and protest against discrimination. Bonus if your antics get you more fans, headlines, and viral videos. Bigger bonus if those things happen during awards season or your latest movie opening.

All you have to do is look at Rian Johnson to see the disparity. He directs/writes a tiny breakout film that makes almost no money (Brick), then a total flop (Brothers Bloom), then a film that is a total mess but makes some decent returns in the international market (LooperI) and BOOM he is the director/writer of…

“Are you really willing just to go down a tier to a man who’s just kind of mediocre but can still do the job instead of reaching across and getting the talented woman?”

>I’ve never understood patrilineage (well I do, but stupid)

Come now... I don’t think we need to hold a press conference every time a potato rots.

Fucking preach. I get so sick of the rhetoric about young women like Swift being “unlucky in love”, “broken hearted”, “another failed relationship”. She is in her 20s, richer than Midas, easy on the eye - why the hell wouldn’t she Be out getting some?!

Yes. And she’s 26 or 27 herself, isn’t she? Can’t she just want sex, and that’s why she’s dating this or that person, for this or that length of time? Is she not allowed to date multiple people over time the way many young people do? Is she allowed to find him attractive and magnetic, despite his pedigree? And why…

I can’t even with Jezebel getting all snarky about a celebrity’s low key relationship with some “random” that they haven’t even made public yet. If she dates someone famous, then she’s doing it for the publicity and if she dates a “random”(can you tell how condescending and insulting I think that term is?) she’s…

Every house seat is up, every two years. Yeah, gerrymandering. Progressive leaning voting has a turnout problem, not a message problem. Half of the adult citizens in this country don’t vote. Some of them are unable, due to having their rights stripped by a felony conviction, but that’s not responsible for all of those…

I just don’t have faith in people.

The thing about Amy Schumer is she’s kinda feminist comedy icon because she represents some broken walls. Before her time, female comics really got the short end of the stick (still do really) as far as material. Men could be clean and funny (e.g. Seinfeld) or they could be crass and funny (e.g. Pryor or Carlin). …

Which issues though? I mean, the drug abuse, racism, poverty, lack of education and mental health treatment, the fallout of poor conditions in a for-profit prison, all feel realistic to me as far as motivations for character development. I do agree they should start wrapping it up though, it would be nice if someone…

I have never once heard it ignored that white people, particularly white women voted for Trump! It’s been the main story ever since the election. Hillary Clinton won about the same percentage of white women as Democratic candidates have won over the last couple of decades- more than Obama by a point or two, less than…

Le Pen isn’t done and the ideology that got her this far isn’t done. Good job France, but don’t forget that she got a third of the vote and set a record amount of results for the far right. For now though:
