I see and hear women all the time (for example), saying 'I don't want to wipe away my ethnicity, I just want to 'take the bump off my nose'. But their large, curved dorsal is one of the most defining features of their ethnicity. And always after surgery, they do indeed look more Caucasian (at least to my eye), even…
Why is it so hard for people to believe that this girl actually does do "work" for a significant portion of her day? Photoshoots are work (even if they're self-produced for Instagram. That apparently is a valuable asset for her). Interviews are work. Courting paps while she does errands all day is work. Filming a…
To answer this question, I think you really need to ask why women have to cover up at all. Women aren't forced to cover up to protect their modesty because they *aren't* objectified, they're forced to cover up because they were never not objectified to begin with.
Was The God Delusion his autobiography?
This. Exactly this. She personally posted snarky comments about other women's bodies on her Instagram before presenting her own photoshopped derrière as the cream of the crop. I don't think it's very forward or progressive at all to take down other women while peddling your own image of an ideal.
" I broke the law and then punished my son when he tried to do what he thought was right. Isn't that a hilarious anecdote where I don't come off looking terrible at all?!"
Oh come on, I've read all the responses and everyone is being helpful and reasonable— sorry if they didn't tell you exactly what you wanted to hear. Yes, women have been giving birth completely unsupervised for millenia— and a shitton of them have died (furthermore, they would almost certainly have been overjoyed to…
I loved Barbie and somehow I managed to grow up to be a feminist, not have an eating disorder, and be enthused about math AND science. I wonder how that could have possibly happened? Could I perhaps have gleaned some positivity from a doll that can be anything and isn't just pretty, but was president, and astronaut,…
I just... feel like this is exactly what Serena Van der Woodsen would do post-GG, having flunked out of NYU for dating all her professors, and marrying the man who made her life hell.
It's hard to get data on this.
ellenjane's dedication to hostility does make them seem trollish, but there are many legitimate points in their post. A vast majority of evidence points to Aisha being 9-10 when her relationship was consummated. That is child molestation. If Jesus was guilty of similar crimes, people in modern leftist circles would…
Emma Carmichael is awesome. I have no idea who Gawker should have hired to run Jezebel. But I do know it's terrible for people to shit all over Emma simply because they wanted Dodai to get the job. Emma has been running a women's blog for a year, and was previously a managing editor at two Gawker sites. And in January…
To Blake's PR reps: I know you're reading this. I'm going to break some shit down below but before I do, I want to ask you to please PLEASE go into politics or philanthropy or something where you are able to change the lives of people in need. I say this because you are CLEARLY AMAZING AT YOUR JOB and could sell…
Gossip Girl should have been some rando blogger journalist played by Kristen Bell IN REAL LIFE.
Oh yeah. I hear white feminists calling black feminists "combative" all the time...oh wait — I guess not, because that doesn't fucking happen.
We can debate the whole "ignore him" or "call him out" position - both have their merits. But, I am toootally on your side about him being a troll. I hate Maher - what a prick.
That Religulous movie was an opportunity to discuss discrepancies in religion. Instead, it was Bill prancing around shaming people, and…
Here is my issue. There is an INSANE amount of pictues on facebook and instagram. These stories get publicity because it offends someone who decides to make it public, probably because they face discrimination in their daily lives and figure it is happening again. Without knowing how many thin women (or men) this…
So, how do we know that they don't often make a mistake and delete the accounts of thin women? Isn't there a selection bias going on here? Due to the viral social justice outrage culture, incidents like this go viral while all the other ones remain unknown. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, but it means we can't…
I don't think it was a democratic Jezebel staff vote; it was up to "Gawker editorial director Joel Johnson". If it was up to the staff I'm sure Dodai would have the job. http://www.capitalnewyork.com/article/media/…. Even the article you mentioned puts it down to "Gawker made a bad move" although its entitled "Jezebel…
i feel like if anyone mentioned the taliban, you would piss everywhere about people not mentioning SA. if someone mentioned ISIS, you would lose your shit about them not talking about palistine.
