And mass graying and banning. Don’t forget that part.

YYYESSSS. I sooooo miss the old Jezebel.
I’m sorry but I had to.
Thank you. This is offensively counter-productive and insulting “advice.”
Countdown to the predictable “IT WAS SATIRE, DUHHHHH!” response in three, two, one...
This Column’z Not Okay.
I miss Caity Weaver.
Every time someone calls this shit out for it’s unending stupidity, vapidness and utter lack of empathy or compassion— I feel an enormous sense of pride in the Jez commentariat.
What, you don’t resolve sensitive intimacy issues with the person you cherish by blurting “fix yourself” on the way out the door? Figuring out who to blame and then refusing to participate further is at the very heart of the complex dance of love! Sigh.
I know! It’s embarrassing that The Root is even attached to garbage like this and “Slow Tuesday. Isn’t it RELEVANT that Elisabeth Moss is a scientologist?!”
Right? It’s excellent to see so many commenters calling the writer out.
You’re dead-on about the XO Jane disease, but I am pretty proud of the Jezebel commentariat this morning for being all “This is bullshit. Don’t be an insensitive asshole about the boner problem.”
Preach
Dr. Nerdlove seems to be serious though. I disagree with some of his opinions, but at least he takes it seriously. I think Jane might be a parody, because there is no way this is real advice.
Yeah, I really appreciate the furthering of the “Women order their boyfriends/husbands about who they can or can’t hang out with! It’s a totally normal thing to do!” schtick.
Lemme get this straight; an acquaintance is doing the dip on her when she tries to become better friends, and your advice is “it’s cause you’re too pretty, duh!” WTF.
If you think like this, you’re an asshole.
Letter writer, he probably doesn’t like you very much. And it may be due in part or whole to the fact that you…
Just say, “Our sex life is a little, um, weak these days? You know what I’m talking about and you need to figure it out. I love you; call a doctor.” It know this might sound like I’m oversimplifying or being too curt, but with stuff like this, it’s best to just be direct and brief. Blurt it out one morning and go on…
It’s odd to me that Dr. Nerdlove over at Kotaku, a video game website, gives more empathetic, reasonable, healthy relationship advice than Jezebel, and he manages to do it with a far less condescending tone.
you give really bad, dumb advice
Yeah, that’s definitely how managing people works!!!
There he is everyone! It’s “that guy”!
