A guy on Grindr once greeted me by asking to see my “sexy shit pussy”. If you wanna find the absolute grossest uses of language, look no further than hookup apps.

I think the importance of all this is to send a message for the next generation, that this conduct should NOT be tolerated and that if you are a 14 year old or 16 year old today, you should be able to talk about it NOW and have some sort of reaction happen because of it.

That old Teri Garr interview seems somewhat prescient now.

Sounds a bit like some people just want to stick their heads in the sand, eh.

November drew a line in the sand where one side is comfortable allowing this sort of conduct to happen behind the scenes while everyone else has decided it needs to end.

Never, in the history of spoken language, has anyone uttered a less sexy phrase than “soft-boiled clitoris.”

Anne, sweet Anne... don’t you know that he’s a Saint now? He performed all the miracles required from the Catholic Church (even the one where he got over in spite of being Jewish but mostly atheist) and was CRUELY MARTYRED (even though he’s still very much alive and very much a Senator with all that entails). His…

Look, he said:

Well, I’m not giving him the benefit of the doubt because he signed the same super predator bill as Hillary, and then made it seem like he had nothing to do with the negative parts of the bill, only the parts that sounded progressive for women.
If you ate the shit sandwich, you can compliment the whip cream that…

I can understand why readers of the root might be skeptical of criticisms laid at Sanders. Other writers love to throw around the BernieBro crud when ripping on him and his supporters. I know that you didn’t here, which I appreciate. I think his approach can work though. Whether you’re black, white, brown, gay,…

Aren’t he and his wife quite wealthy?

Here’s the problem I have with how Bernie sees things. He sees everything through an economic lenses. And thinks that economic equality or opportunity will solve everything. While economic equality or opportunity is a very worthy thing; it does not address systemic racism, sexism, anti LGBT sentiment and similar…

I might be out of line for talking, I’m white and didn’t trust Bernie. But through my cultural filter, his quote is a bullshit dog whistle to get racist white people to support him. I was pretty appalled when I read it, but learned a lot more about his record on race from you and commenters replying here. So thank you…

The man has spent his entire life as a politician. Don’t tell me this is his lack of experience.

Sanders doesn’t actually give a shit about any of the social justice stuff his followers think he does, much like most of his followers who are Facebook activists.

he spoke out about being against gay marriage as late as 2007 on cspan, he only supported civil unions in his state 2 days before the vote for them when it…

I’m seeing something other than how his words were (stupidly) structured, but I think he meant to include everyone in his statement about “ordinary Americans.”

Sanders is a veteran politician with decades of experience. Please do NOT come at us with the ‘he doesn’t know any better’/Trump defense. Just don’t. If Sanders considered marginalized communities the actual equal of ‘ordinary Americans’ ie lower and middle income Whites, he certainly knows how to say that.

If that’s so then why he does he consistently frame it like this? EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

If that’s so then why he does he consistently frame it like this? EVERY. SINGLE. TIME.

If he meant to include everyone, then we don’t have to “work in two ways.”
