I think ultimately it’s her choice alone. You make the choice to possibly support a child for 18 years every time you have sex. That’s just how it is. That said, if my girlfriend/wife/significant other had an abortion without even telling me and I found out it’d be a breach of our mutual trust I’d never forgive and…

Curious how third wave feminists feel about this topic, honestly. Two people make the choice to have sex. The decision to abort or not is ultimately the woman’s as it is her body. However the decision could require at a bare minimum 18 years of financial commitment from both parties, which seems like grounds for at…

Jenji Kohan is like that too, unfortunately. But lord, at least none of either of their shows is LOST.

It doesn’t matter. Because it’s not going to fix the show, which is completely unwatchable.

The only thing wrong in this article is the lack of Allen iverson. Seriously wtf Kara

Sacred hair? Please go on.

thanks for introducing me to a new word! i will be working “quisling” into every conversation ever from now on.

Speaking as a common trans woman, I have neither the time nor the patience to be the face of the trans movement. What good are celebrities if they can’t provide a bit of advocacy for their communities? It seems like the Wachowski sisters are fairly well educated and self aware, and we also have Laverne Cox, and Tiq…

Yeah lets hate the the guy who made a gaffe while speaking off the cuff even though we know he fought for civil rights and supported Jesse Jackson for President. I am black and I wouldn’t even do that. Lets blindly support the woman that took money from for-profit prisons (up until October 2015) that have made tons of…

It’s almost like if context was important, no one would be complaining, because his point was pretty obvious to anyone with a tenth of a brain.

I don’t mind that as much as how it was taken out of context. He was actually addressing the issues that people are using the comment to accuse him of not understanding. Fucking Clinton. I’m going to hate voting for her conniving political ass so much. But hey, she wins, right? And an evil manipulative monster…

Here’s a longer, more subtle conversation between Sanders and Cornell West, Nina Turner and Killer Mike about systemic racism in the black community, for anyone interested in Sanders’ thoughts on the issue;

When an old Polish-American Jewish guy can’t say “ghetto”, you realize how much times have changed.

If you haven’t been following this, the key here is that the hotel employees facilitated the video by telling the stalker where her room was and allowing his request to stay right next to her, I guess because they thought it would cute to let him perv on her.

The commenters also no nothing about his background. Young people who commit these kind of crimes are almost always victims of crimes themselves. One of the reasons why the Supreme Court found that mandatory life without parole for children is unconsitutional is because children have little to no control over where…

While “an eye for an eye” is tempting, it’s a bad model for society.

I’m torn. On the one hand, this guy did something absolutely horrible and deserves the full punishment of the law.

Making abortion illegal doesn’t stop abortions, or even lower the numbers of abortions. It just makes it illegal and unsafe. The best way to reduce abortions is free contraceptives and comprehensive sex education for all.

Read the entire Slate piece, it is fantastically done. These women are total badasses and had absolutely zero patience for Keller. I will add that Breyer’s moment in the sun was pretty spectacular as well. (emphasis mine)

When I lived in Atlanta, I lived in an area that had six Baptist churches within three square miles of my house. Even though neither of us were religious, my girlfriend at the time and I decided to attend hoping to witness the singing and whooping and hollering and such. It was everything I hoped. Everyone was super…
