People say "poor thing, the photos are so revealing" because she did not agree to reveal herself, not because her body is shameful. They don't say this about men because it almost never happens to men, because our society generally regards men as having rights to control their own bodies.

I just read it. Thanks for telling me about it. She basically confirmed all the suspicions I had. I hate that this type of revenge porn mentality is such a pattern due to the entitlement on men's parts.

My DSM-V tells me that 4% of people have antisocial personality disorder and 0%-6.2% have narcissistic personality disorder, both of which involve not having empathy and taking advantage of people for monetary gain. It used to be hard for me to believe that as high as one in ten people have no empathy, but

They're not your property nor are they your enemy. What's with this weird sexual hostility that seems to be there too? Emma Watson seems like the nicest person ever and yet there's this weird hostility towards her and other female celebrities. It's like a type of revenge porn: "This is payback, bitch. Payback for you

Men have been creepy about Emma Watson for a really long time. There were countdown clocks for her 18th birthday, and apparently paparazzi were trying to take pictures up her skirt as soon as she became legal. I can't imagine what that was like for her.

Yeah, and on Reddit they were posting shit like "Don't worry, you're next. Oh, someone's panicking! I hope she's next. Get her!" And anyone who said stuff like, "Now I feel bad. She's right" got downvoted and insulted.

It isn't, because celebrity women are the women with the most social power - the women these men know they'll never have a chance with, ever, and when they get access to their private pictures and their bodies, it's like they've destroyed that barrier and asserted their rightful place of lording over all women,

It's very fitting Emma Watson is commenting on this because I heard that a lot of these jerks were requesting nude pictures of Watson. Having a celebrity crush is fine but celebrities are still people. She's right about the lack of empathy and it's shameful.

Yes, women aren't people. Everyone scoffs at this as though it's an overdramatic exaggeration, but it's true. In the world we live in, women are not people. They're a resource meant to be utilised, and if men want to look at naked women, that's their right, if women want privacy, they're restricting access to the

I completely agree. But, speaking as a completely nobody that has had this exact same thing happen, this isn't just a celeb problem. People feel entitled to women's bodies in general, but being a public figure definitely worsens it tenfold.

First of all, I didn't know that was what the shippers were called. Cute name.

Awesome gif. Extra points for featuring one of my many husbands.

I love this show. I enjoy that Abbie is an individual whose race and gender are irrelevant. As a black woman, I watch this show and say to myself "Hmm. So, this is what it feels to be a white guy; to have a main character look like you and just be an individual. Nice!" I want more of this. I don't want any romance to

The thing is, the movie adaptations (and now TV adaptation) get further and further from what the original play was supposed to be about. Higgins wasn't framed as a savior. He was framed as a bully who Eliza (and Higgins' mom) stood up to. Eliza defended her decisions and didn't allow Higgins' judgement to break her

I feel the same way too. The show gets extra points for John Cho but those same points get deducted due to the terrible gender politics. Why couldn't they do well in the race AND gender category?

Wow. Your 1 and 2 are exactly what my superiority complex-having teenage self needed to hear. I definitely suffered from the virgin-whore illusion and so I repressed my sexual desires, pretending I didn't have any sexual inclinations in public (meanwhile, in private, my friends and I discussed perverted things all

"Prince is too sexual. I wouldn't want my son behaving that way"-said nobody ever

Yeah, you can't have it both ways. Male artists (especially rappers) use women's sex appeal to make them look good all the time. In order to show their sexual prowess, they surround themselves with pretty, young women shaking their asses. But I don't seem him criticizing the men who use the women or the women who

Here's the thing. She's not a kid anymore. Whether he said 'want' or 'do', why even bring up the daughter comment as if it's relevant? When your daughter/son is above 18 years old, you're opinion of how they express their sexuality is null and void. And it's got to be annoying to be an adult, and still have people

I think they are the type to need someone rather laid back to balance them out tbh.
