If I could have Adam Rippon and Lin-Manuel Miranda as my personal life coaches, I could take over the entire galaxy before lunch.

Is anyone going to ask men about #metoo or is it only potential female rape victims who get interrogated endlessly as to whether they’ve been raped? Maybe she feels she can’t afford to be truthful. What an ungrateful dumb bitch.

To clarify, Tina twice gave the police fake names during that traffic stop. She eventually told them her real name; when asked why she lied, she answered that she thought she might be “in trouble” with the police (she had taken off from the hotel where CFS had placed her).

Great!

I showered and washed my hair. I have been in a real deep depression funk for a while and the self-loathing got worse with the not showering and then I felt like showering even less and queue more self-loathing and so on. Depression is such a cruel monster and I wish everyone suffering from it well.

Happy Monday to you, too!

Woah. It didn’t even occur to me (white privilege, ugh, goddammit). It was a terrible reference from The League. Thanks for pointing this out to my ignorant ass, the phrase has been deleted from my vocabulary from now forward. I am so embarrassed that it never even occurred to me how racist that was. Again, ignorant…

This is generally true for more architectural clothes, BUT —

The only thing that makes some sense to me would be adding stretch to their fabrics if they don’t currently use if for straight sizes. I straddle the straight/plus size line and for a retailer like eShakti where I can be very specific about how things should fit a 100% cotton works just fine. For anything off the…

I just want cute tomboy clothes sans lace up, off-the-shoulder, peplums, frills and furs. I’m sick of resorting to menswear just to get decent shirts in natural fibers.

This! Just give me the same clothes!

2/3rds of Americans are “overweight”/obese. So let’s conservatively say that 40% of Americans need plus-size clothes. Clothing companies are making a quarter the profits off of plus-size clothes as they could be for no reason except discrimination and laziness. That is bad business.

Hopeful allies should be reading and learning. They don’t need to post on every article, and especially not about things that aren’t relevant to the issue at hand or are meant only to get a high number of stars.

If they were really allies they’d listen to and respect that women miss when this was a predominantly female community with a generally shared foundation and see themselves out. Not every space is your classroom.

As a buying director for an apparel start up (none of the brands mentioned in this article), I have to say the hardest problem is finding a factory to make plus size clothing. I don’t know why it’s such an ordeal, but even adding 2xl/sizes 18 and 20 to our line took months and months of begging and deal-making to get…

I know you mean well, but fat girls hear similar shit from skinny girls all the time. Your struggles are real, but not the same as the struggles of fat women.

“We need to launch plus as a separate brand with new fits, new models and new fabrics to ensure that the styles fit and look great.

You know what we didn’t have ten years ago on Jezebel? Male commenters derailing on every article.

Also, dermot is such an ugly name. At least its original Irish form has style and gravitas.
