Well, as a black male feminist, I'm not sure what to make of your argument. Dunham may very well be a racist, though it's un"known" to me. And per Moran, what's the problem with women OWNING their vaginas (as I do my penis) and moving from that perspective, you rubbish bloke?

I don't disagree with what you'd like to see achieved. I'd like to see that, as well. But I'm afraid the net-effect vis-a-vis white's writing blacks would yield to tokenism, because the white, male executives will get lazy, not hire black, Latino and Asian writers, and just allow for a bunch of black people who…

Been here, baby

+1...Money in the bank!

Is Grant burning a spliff?

Who the fuck said that quote in the end there? You can use that quote to justify legalizing narcotics, which would only make too much sense.

It sounds like you've made an argument against your initial point. Precisely because you're so complex, you should make the argument for more black writers, which would lead to better characters ("of color"). But you've undermined your point that white writers can somehow write characters (again, "of color") by just…

Hurrah for Ms. Moran! Her book's awesome (it's essential reading for men), and she's money in the bank. Dunham has no obligation to diversify the content matter of her show, nor would a quota system as you suggest towards the end of this piece be sufficient for the crybabies out there,

Not a threat, just an anachronism, which is something he probably recognizes, which is further evidence of a reason to not believe him.

An enemy's list is an underrated way to judge someone. I, too, must adjust of what I think about this actress. Ugh...

Can she contact Hitler? Why "random" dead people connected to other "randoms"?

There can't be a line. I find fascism intolerable, and vomit-inducing. Yet, I know there are people out there, namely alienated and poor, who find something to connect to in this kind of speech. Hate together creates a type of bond no MLK speech or Holocaust Awareness Week is going to forge is these instances. But…

I hope to God (fuck! I'm an atheist) this is coming to a country near me - or...just my country.

"Generation 'Y NOT ME'"...rich, again, since you (older people) told me I was fucking amazing. Unique. Special (and thanks to you, I know never to insult people by calling them that). One of a kind.

"Blogs and Tumblrs and Twitters-the status updates of the heart, the echo chambers of an era"

All this is further confirmation that Affirmative Action is incompatible with our capitalist society. On the one hand, you have elite, bourgeois blacks, Latinos and women who make the most of it. On the other hand, it's lower middle class to working class whites like Ms. Fisher who complain about its unfairness (a…

"in their 'work'" (again, to put it nicely)

And yet another example of why charity blows.

Here, here!! We westerners have our own problems, what with how we deify "Job Creators" and how we've built up the Entertainment Industrial Complex (sports, movies, paparazzi, 24-hr news) to be fuckin' Great Recession-proof. Still, we are advanced enough and know enough to have the MORAL OBLIGATION to stand against…

Can anything be more demeaning than the modern Political Wife? Poor boos (and I say that with serious love and concern)? When The Hill was running in '07/'08, was Bubba runnin' around displaying his fried chicken recipe, and giving moral support to all the brothers out there working as Stay at Home Dads? No, he was…
