Seconding the less gossip/more analysis on gossip stuff. I mean, I don't want to read about the Beyonce/Jay-Z potential divorce, it's none of my business. But an article about the strain that the wife's success puts on a marriage? Or about why we feel so invested in celebrity marriages? Sign me up.

There actually is a Jez/GT book club on GoodReads (I can't freaking find the link right now, sorry) that's been really well run and works great.

Stiiiiillllllll racist. Like hugely, shitty racism.

And rampant shitty racism against a minority that often gets cast as neutered and too smart for their own good.

Sounds like you might really enjoy SuperFight. I've found that it pushes the humor much harder than the offensiveness.

Thank you. I love it when people don't believe that story because "No man would do that!"

I mean that women get treated that way regardless of their sexuality. Ask a lesbian about how men treat them when they say no to advances.

I saw them at Mars Cheese Castle.

no I understand what your point is. You're pulling a #NotAllMen argument in the face of my #YesAllWomen evidence. And the thing is, it doesn't matter that not all men are assholes because the ones that are don't go around with tattoos on their foreheads declaring their status. I can't look at a guy and know if he…

The root of my argument is not that I hate men (I don't, I actually like men a lot, which is why I date them and am friends with many). The root of my argument is that one of the worst case scenarios for a woman being hit on by a man she doesn't know is sexual assault, and that it's so common that women operate under…

I don't think it's just "crass and silly gamesmanship." One of the guys I asked out called me several terrible things, including a homophobic slur. Again: I (a woman) was asking out him (a man) and apparently that made me a lesbian. And worthy of threatening physically.

I'm sorry that my fear of getting assaulted is hard for you to stomach. That's such a burden for you to bear.

Like what? Voting with your wallet? Making your opinion known, perhaps via social media? Serious question though, what else do you expect people to do?

As someone who's organized two of those at this point, that is a full time job filled with a lot of sacrifice. I'm not saying no one will do it, I am saying that there needs to be something between that level of effort and a hashtag.

"Getting a date" is not the same as "dating", though.

I asked a guy out once and he told me I was too aggressive for him. I think threatened is a perfectly reasonable word.

Have fun getting raped when you reject strange men that pursue you! Because it might be easier to get pursued than the other way around, but I hope you've got thick skin because everything from verbal to physical to sexual assault will be your "privilege" as a woman being chased by straight men. Notice I didn't say…

Thanks to the beauty of an IUD no. Which is good since I live near Lake Michigan.
