It’s so simple, but so widely misunderstood. People want to be able to say whatever they want without anybody else having the freedom to respond.

The people who throw around “free speech” the most are usually the ones who don’t understand what it means.
Yes, this is much better. If she cut off the little flipped out parts at the bottom, it wouldn’t read so old.
Exactly. That song was basically, “This body type is better than this other body type because men like it more.” It’s problematic on so many levels.
Nobody can help what situation they’re born into.
There was also a racial component to the article, yes. I was reading so many comments that I lost track of that part of it. I was talking about the conversation being had here about recognizing the help you’ve received and realizing that not everyone gets the same. You said that you strongly felt owed your parents…
This is about people not recognizing or appreciating their privilege. If you felt entitled to your parents’ money, you are who this article is about.
The point is that you recognize your privilege. And because you do, you’re likely not going to have the shitty attitude that we’re all born on a level playing field and those who don’t succeed are lazy. I worked with a little princess once whose parents paid for everything, and she looked down on less fortunate…
More and more, Jezebel is turning into an ad for all things Kardashian.
Seriously! If there’s going to be a continuous stream of articles about how amazing her lips are, it should be mentioned EVERY TIME that her lips are made of filler. I don’t care if people want to have cosmetic procedures done, but if feminist publications are going to idolize those results, at least let the average…
Dealing with a bipolar loved one can be incredibly trying. It can take over your life and your mental state. At what point is a line drawn between victim and manipulator? Is it fair to expect any level of accountability? Was blaming her children for her suicide and most likely ruining their lives completely out of her…
Neither does he.
Love the headline. If we’re going to be inundated with Kardashian coverage, it should at least be funny.
By this logic, if someone had sex with Sheen and contracted HIV (even though he didn’t disclose it), it is her fault. So yes, let’s please make sure we don’t hold him accountable, because it’s those sluts’ faults.
Nobody in this comments section is saying that he deserves HIV because he’s an asshole, or that he’s disgusting because he has HIV. Most people are saying that he was an asshole before we knew, and still is, regardless of his status. Charlie Sheen is the one who dehumanized sex workers, implying that he got it because…
While I agree that the media needs to be careful not to stigmatize HIV further, people with STD’s need to inform their partners. This article, while it has a lot of good points, suggests that expecting people to disclose their status to a sexual partner is equal to shaming them. Even if the risk is small, it’s not one…
You all know that this person is trolling, right?
Why are we upset about this? People are already aware that breast cancer exists, so anybody who tries to raise more awareness, albeit with “good intentions,” is a jerk? Huh? Is it because they’re police and we have to hate everything they do? I’m so confused.
While it was tacky of the bride to send a bill, the guest was pretty rude as well. She should have sent a gift after the fact. There’s an unspoken agreement of “covering the cost of your meal.” If you’ve RSVP’d that you’re going, you’ve told the couple to go ahead and buy you a meal because they’ll be receiving a…
