Here's the thing that bothers me: We all know Harper Lee is incredibly private. She may not wish for this book to be published, she may have changed her mind, or she might be losing her faculties. But all of this speculation is only heaping more attention on someone who DOES NOT WANT that attention. So even those of

Asked why she had not provided more detail about the discovery, which might have quelled suspicions, she said: "I am a lawyer, not a celebrity. The focus should be on the gift Harper Lee is giving the world."

We have no evidence that Lee is feeling hurt. We only have the word of a lawyer who is going to profit off if this handsomely and who "found" the manuscript just a few months after Lee's sister and fiercest protector died.

Option A: Harper Lee, literary queen, is ill with dementia and is being exploited by those around her. She doesn't have a clue what's going on.

It's OK everybody, as long as it's one man and one woman and not those gays, the sanctity of marriage will be preserved!

This story + my ovaries = exploded

C'mon, she's been sitting on this thing for what? Fifty years? Clearly she never wanted it published. i'm not buying that it was "lost" either.

The craziest thing I have ever seen was when I was bartending at a strip club. Guy comes in and he's weird. Tries to hit on every person lacking a y chromosome including myself. Anyway, he starts harassing one of the dancers. She is a quiet, sweet woman that just so happens to be wearing thigh high boots that night.

Honestly, cleanses like that are TERRIBLE FOR YOU, so you should just stop right now. Eat lots of veggies and lean protein if you want to do something food for your body.

Ignoring the golden rule, it's just not wise to piss off people preparing your food behind your back. Why give them an excuse to do something disgusting to what you're about to put in your mouth?

I had to read this three times before it hit me that ballparking was not a sexual technique you needed to work on.

Didn't you know, gay people speak GAY.

Who leaves a cheap tip on a date? I'm in a long term relationship now, but that's an instant dealbreaker. I don't date cheap assholes who want to steal from waiters...

So, this is a feminist website, and yet plenty of regular Jezebel commenters are mocking a clear case of sexual harrassment, just because it's happened to someone we don't like?

I have massive problems with Iggy's racist ass and her faux accent but this is a completely shitty thing to do to anyone. That's private information that shouldn't be shared. Not funny

It doesn't matter that her music is terrible, this is an awful thing to happen to anyone.

Yes, I would defend that position, because to not defend it opens the door to absolutely crazy distinctions about when an adult human has the right to determine what goes on inside her body and when she doesn't. And to say that there are situations in which an independent person's rights are secondary to the "rights"

KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK. P.S. could you please date and liberalize other men as well pls, maybe a couple hundred million, tyvm.

You turned one? WOW.

It's like the old saying:
