Likewise, you could have saved time by simply stating, “I support the erasure of women at a time when their biological rights are under unprecedented assault, in favor of dogmatic adherence to an inflexible and exclusionary ideology.”

You disagree that sex is real?

I realize part of the goal with clickbait like this is to stir up a bunch of unnecessary conflict, but I think it’s a bit of a reach to call JK “transphobic”.

Because nothing she said was shitty? If she got the facts wrong on this workplace incident, that’s one thing. But to simply state that “sex is real” is objectively true, and your comments on this article are nothing short of gaslighting.

You are so brave. They're fucking books. get over it.

I can’t find it in me to be outraged over this. She literally says in the tweet to live your best life in peace and security. She’s not advocating violence against nor harm toward trans women. And for what it’s worth, I’ve never read a single book of hers in my life, nor have I seen more than ten minutes of one of the…

I always felt that the Pat joke was on the audience. It made us feel awkward that we didn’t know how to approach someone who didn’t fit gender norms at that time. It was cringe humor to think.. how would I interact with this person if I was in the situation being show.

Liz Holmes and I were freshman dormmates at Stanford in 02-03 (Junipero, in Wilbur Hall) and she was totally unremarkable. Obviously the voice is fake but she never talked about biotech or starting a company or anything like that. She was a Human Biology major, but that was more a pre-med track than research science.…

What a remarkable coincidence it is that R Kelly’s very, very specific type is compromised exclusively of black women 30+ years his junior who are estranged from dishonest, mercenary parents!

If I didn’t know someone personally who was groomed & sexually abused repeatedly as a child, who didn’t come forward till his late 20s and whose journey mimics both Robson’s and Safechuck’s so so eerily similar, I think I would have a very difficult time letting go of that deep, childhood nostalgia for both Kelly and…

Did anyone notice him unceremoniously letting go of the cat mid-air? I mean, the cat seems fine, but he could have bent a little to shorten the distance to the ground a bit...

Fuck everyone in this story except for the girl and the police who found her. I hope all of these terrible adults get exactly what they deserve. 

When I was single, I remember talking politics with some guy I’d met at a party. He tried to call me out for something, and I sternly nailed him back with facts and data. I sincerely thought he was a jerk because of the way he smugly raised his objections to my argument and rolled his eyes. I walked away.

I’ve been happily out of the dating game for decades (and was terrible at it back when) but I’ve always thought the modern hetero iteration, and especially in New York City, is just awful and hugely favors men who get ego and sexual gratification from an endless string of casual dates with women, many of whom are…

I’m open to learning how sex work can be separated from oppression. I just don’t see it. I guess I come from a perspective of having been approached multiple times as an underage child by pornographers wanting to lure me into the trade. I’m just lucky I never had the economic necessity. There but for the grace of…

I hear you. Many kinds of labor are physically difficult or even demeaning. I just have a gut instinct that there is something special about sex that makes it different than, say, carpentry or waitressing. Sex is a vital part of most people’s intimate lives. It’s how most people express love and create a family. …

Ermmm. That’s probably because no one is sticking a dick in my ass at work. Lol. Selling my work or sanity in my chosen career is not the same as giving my nalgas away to some dude(s) for money. Really? You don’t understand why sex work would be looked down upon?

No, I am not against celebrating women (or men) in service industries. I think there is something different about selling your body for the sexual pleasure of others. If sex workers genuinely get fulfillment and have meaningful lives from prostitution: fine. I’m happy for them.  I am just very hesitant about…

I did not say all sex work is exploitation. Demand for sex work will ALWAYS lead to exploitation. 

Once again jezebel, third-wave rag, writes about sex worker by featuring white, well-paid, women. A woman who would have other economic options. Never the women in brothels who are billed for every tampon they use and leave more broken and (literally) broke than when they entered. Or the numerous places where sex work…
