But I didn't mention obesity. I didn't mention body size at all. I focused on a man's lack of stature, which is something he cannot alter, but tall men have been considered more desirable than short men throughout human history, too. If you want to bring this around to women's weight, you can find periods of history…

See, the thing is, what you're essentially saying is that women should consider whether or not the man can help the aspect of his physical being that they don't find attractive, and if he can't, they should stop finding that unattractive. Men get to remain "visual," but women have to stop being visual and understand…

No. We'll never have false equivalency if we continue to think that way.

Same, and similarly, this has nothing to do with wanting a white actor to be cast. I just want a hot actor. Who is really tall. Yes, I picture Armie Hammer. Not gonna be butthurt over any actor of any race as long as he's hot and tall.

Not to harp on you, but where did you originally get the idea that two condoms are better than one? I see other young men and women making the same mistake and I wonder if it's some myth repeated among young people or if it's an incorrect logic leap ("Two must be twice as safe!") made independently over and over.

A MPDG exists to drive the protagonist's change narrative. Men, writers, directors, whatever, have traditionally not been interested (and that is putting it mildly) in women's change narratives, and straight men are not used to thinking of men as muses because desire is wrapped up in that. Really, even to come up with…

Doesn't matter about the models. The can design skanks for itself.

Attached, the raison d'etre of Bret Easton Ellis's Twitter account.

Here's the porn monster that's coming after your girls.

So other men have taken their money and sold them strategies that do not work for them, they are envious of men they think are handsome and charming, their dependence upon other men to validate their choices in women means that their sexuality is actually being *controlled by other men*, and this of course means that…

This is a virgin reforming a rake story. It's just that the sexual "excess" from which she sways him is a matter of quality (away from monogamous kinky relationships toward a monogamous vanilla future with her) rather than quantity (since he is already monogamous).

I scrolled through some of the unscrubbed fic online the other week and other than the names, I would have had no idea it was supposed to be Twilight fic. But I did not read past the first book in the Twilight series and that was years ago. I actually read 50 Shades about a year and a half ago and did not know until I…

Importantly, when her choice of teams was falsely limited to Team Blaine or Team Duckie, she came in on her own with "Team Spader." This makes her a visionary and a hero.

Dealing with Concord making the beasts with two backs was...difficult. Dealing with the ensuing storyline was even more difficult.

Pretty rare that tv-only gets the cover, and then they're huge tv stars at the time, like Friends cast members. Sexiest Man Alive is almost never tv, either. I remember the first year that Mad Men hit it big...if buzz, perception and volume of drool/number of flung panties counted, Jon Hamm could not have lost.…

This is me every time he masterfully renders those fuckfaces impotent by choosing language so flawlessly that no flavor of their disingenuous canned outrage is satisfactory. Bonus points when he does it in this hokey 1950s dad fashion, so they can't even mock his mild pejorative without implicating themselves and all…

It's my daily Schmidt!

Mr. TCB and I had this discussion, and we came to the conclusion that Marshall needs to think this way, and since Lily is actually completely in charge of the group and is deferred to on all things and never criticized, everyone just habitually falls in line and no one examines it.

Well, to be fair, sitcoms feature actors, not real people who are married to one another. Usually. But yeah.

I'm fat and I've always dated tall, conventionally hot guys with athletic builds. They all had jobs, and I don't do anal, so I have to assume I'm awesome.
