I think it's more "that will punish her for not giving me what I want because I am a two year old in an adult body who doesn't understand that women are a) not all my mom and b) exist separate from my opinion."

Sometimes I feel like I am the only person on earth who fully does not give a shit about Beyoncé. Why do people worship her? I just do not get it.
saying that women love hearing it implies that old stereotype that women are helpless and egoless without men. it's a victimizing statement that legitimizes the harassment of women. dude needs to take some time and think about what he's saying.
Religion has A LOT to do with it in this case. Every single aspect of Iranian life and law are based on religion. Furthermore, religion tends to give basis (by claiming it's the "Will of god" or some bull) to authoritarian rule.
The doctrine of Islam and the Islamic Republic of Iran are directly linked. The former…
You know what else goes south? The ability to see everything in black and white terms. The ability to speak with authority about shit you know nothing about, like aging and what constitutes cool. Knowing you are right about everything. God, I miss that.
Didn't we all go through some sort of a hippie phase in HS? Like, lots of crappy poetry and art and stuff? I sure as hell did.
Kinda makes me like him more. He looks like a human person. Not like those damn Jolie-Pitt children who look like if an angel had sex with an even more angel-y angel and they had a baby and the baby's portrait was drawn in pastels and then airbrushed and brought to life by Walt Disney.
This is really difficult to say, but if you want to fix the problem, it seems relevant to me. There is a strong cultural component to street harassment and sexism in general; your cultural background is likely to strongly influence your attitudes towards these issues. I honestly believe that the "taboo" about bringing…
I'm pretty sure the authors of the Bible would be completely flabbergasted to hear that women have sexual desire at all.
That said, I don't really care if the haters are hating on "gays" specifically, rather than "gays and lesbians" or bisexuals or trans* people because we are all members of the same queer community…
This attitude of "Holy shit a religious person said a reasonable thing! What???!!!" is condescending and ignorant. There are literally billions of people who hold some kind of religious belief, with a huge variety and diversity of views on any number of subjects. Assuming that "religion" = "fundamentalist,…
Let's see. It takes me at least 15 minutes just to dry my hair, even if I skip showering and just wet my hair down a bit to get rid of the bedhead (If I shower we can add 15 minutes for showering and an extra 10 minutes for fully wet hair to be dried.). Flat ironing/styling is another 10 (I have lots of hair - even at…
There's no way in hell I'm leaving the house looking like a slob. I'm perfectly aware of how much money I spend on "grooming" (are we dogs?) and still, I don't spend money on outrageous beauty treatments or stuff like botox, so I'm more than ok with what I spend. It's my personal choice to shower daily, fix my hair,…
Take me with you.
Screw that. There are many religions with crazy rules against what females can and cannot do. If everyone invoked these crazy religious rules, many women would lose their constitutional rights and their jobs (depending on occupation).
Celebrating All Saint's Day on Nov. 1 dates back at least to the 800s in Europe, so it's a stretch to say that the idea of the holiday was lifted from indigenous peoples. It's not an uncommon human instinct to celebrate the beloved dead.
Okay, so never do anything _ever_ that might be construed at any time as improper. Man, this list of rules of How To Earn Your Right To Be Treated As A Person While Existing As A Woman just gets longer every day!
Stripping, especially male stripping, is so tacky to me. I couldn't handle Magic Mike. It's just not my form of entertainment. And I'm not a prude by any means, I just don't get the appeal of watching strangers dance seductively for money (especially when IRL they're not half as hot as Channing). I imagine everyone at…
Well yeah, I don't love her. But mostly I just kind of ignore her. I understand mocking the claims she makes, but this level of aggressive animosity and spite...don't we have anything better to do? I get saying, "Ugh Bristol Palin wrote a book and it is THE WORST." This chart is so forced and cruel, because as…
I do wish we could move past the whole "princess" thing entirely, but at least this princess sounds like she's an active character.
