Bowing is optional, apparently.

They didn’t have sex in the bathroom. Wouldn’t it make sense if both ppl have to pee you go at the same time so the aisle person doesn’t have to get up twice? I’ve done this before. 

He was not supposed to bow. I hate Trump and he did a lot of awful shit but he wasn’t supposed to bow. He and the queen are technically equals.

Because he’s marketing himself off of something that not only made the woman he’s constantly referencing extremely uncomfortable but had a horrid impact on her life. It’s gross.

I disagree. There’s an implied wink and nudge that goes along with “a gentleman never tells.”

I don’t believe “a gentleman never tells” was a better response to an invasive question about what may or may not have happened in an airplane restroom than just not responding at all.

Of course, darling.

please share the story!!

Look around your office today. What if somebody asked you if there were any red flags about Joe from accounting? or Susie from HR?

Good thing she's in no way responsible for his actions. "I don't fucking know" is a perfectly appropriate and justified response to such a question.

The way people act you'd think the military was either a Golden Valhalla or an evil nest of fascists. It's a necessary tool and, usually, any moral problems with it's use can be laid at the feet of our leaders and ultimately 'us' collectively. Since theoretically we're a democracy. If we can ever do without a military…

Think what you will of the military (I come from a military family, and am married to a current service member, so I’m biased in favor of the military as a general rule), but any person willing to put their life on the line for this nation is an American in my mind—and infinitely more deserving of citizenship than…

While I do think it’s right to expect an activist like Tamblyn to be talking to her husband when he fucks up, I also don’t think we should expect her to be able to perform the miracle of being able to transform her oaf into someone properly woke or to air their marital disputes on these issues in public.

Talent will only get you so far. You also have to be willing to play the game. That doesn’t just apply to Hollywood but pretty much in all sectors. Call it respectability politics or whatever you like, the fact is, no matter how good you are at your job, people still have to want to work with you.

I get the sense that when it comes to this whole debacle, the best summary of “who’s right and who’s wrong” probably comes down to “a little from Column A, a little from Column B”. 

Don’t be stupid. It’s definitely, totally normal to get engaged to someone you’ve been dating for eleven minutes.

that’s not a Kennedy, but rather an unholy union of Sean Penn and David Duchovny wearing Jonathan Franzen’s favorite shirt

That’s very valid.

This criticism is... off. I suppose biology also could’ve driven home the point by making Brandon Teena AMAB. Trans men, by definition, are AFAB. The difference between a trans man and a “woman dressing up like a boy” is strictly interior to the individual. It’s not visible to the human eye. It’s oddly self-defeating…
