These are just a few links from the first page of search results on Google from the search criteria “guilty pleasure” + “men”. The answer to your question is effortlessly easy to determine. Men enjoy ‘guilty pleasures’ as well and think about them as such. Resist the urge to generalize along gender lines.

Nonsense. Comedy is more meritocratic than many industries; either enough people find you funny to consistently secure gigs/roles or not. You might not find Spade funny, but enough people disagree that he’s been successful in the industry since the 1980s. What’s more likely: a conspiracy to keep David Spade employed

He’s a kicker; are you sure about that?

Unfortunately, the practice goes both ways:

I’m surprised, thanks for the info! Yet another way in which rural America drags the rest of the country down.

38,000 residents counts as a mid-size city?

Luckily for you, Schumer caved to McConnell’s demands yet again, which means you won’t have to read that hypothetical article. Small victories, huh?

Counterpoint:

FWIW, I don’t think you’ve applied an objective standard in your assessment of Obama in relation to Bush II. If you judge their respective administrations on the basis of accomplishments / failures then Obama was a demonstrably better president than Bush II. It seems to me that what they had in common is both

I include stars in my message because I’m used to commenting on fora in which stars convert to italicization. I repeat myself for clarity. I’d encourage you to focus on the content of the message. I’m not comparing Mike Trout to Babe Ruth, I’m comparing Mike Trout to Jose Altuve, or perhaps most accurately to

Stop treating politics like sports. Judge each situation/person/etc. on its own merits. Obama did abandon indigenous peoples at Standing Rock and very clearly did not do enough for the people of Flint, MI. Saying so isn’t necessarily an effort at whataboutism, it’s an assessment of what needed to be done v. what was

You’ve succumbed to propaganda. While a few people might fit the type, the “Bernie Bro” is a mythical bit of propaganda pushed by Sen. Clinton’s election campaign. They pushed the same narrative during 2008 when they coined the term “Obama Boys”—one of the many trial balloons during that campaign that didn’t float. If

How magnanimous of you to rationalize the rape of a child.

We don’t even have to get into the hateful rhetoric spewed by The Root for anyone they don’t deem to even be the correct shade of brown. As a Latino, that racist, shit-filled site can burn for all I’m concerned. It should be called Rootbart.

Young people (i.e. the Boomers) voted Nixon into power. If you’re going to prognosticate about American history get your history straight.

What are you doing, specifically, to ‘save the country’? Social media activism is demonstrably ineffective, as are public protests. So is arguing with ideologues to change their opinions. The first-past-the-post system ensures that your individual vote is necessary, but hardly constitutes ‘saving the country,’

If black voters in the M/W/W Counties in Wisconsin (i.e. Milwaukee) who pressed the button for Obama in 2012 bothered to vote for Clinton in 2016 she’d be president. Same goes for black voters in Wayne County (i.e. Detroit) who went for Obama in 2012 , but stayed home in 2016. These African American voters, whose

Adultery is illegal in 21 US states.

The Root = black FOX News. Occasionally you get straight news reporting. The site is largely devoted to opinion pieces that conform to preconceived narratives and draw on the same rhetoric that alternately casts its main audience as eithers victims or representatives of a superior culture, which is why you get the

The purpose of the list — like all posts filed to ‘White People’ — is to get those money-making clicks from white folks who want to be offended, as well as black folks who enjoy the spectacle and want a laugh. That’s why you’ll see the same writers publish something profound one day and forgettable trash the next
