Well, duh, if we tear it down, we ladies are actually going to have to try at something other than growing babies and vacuuming. Ugh, that sounds just awful. Pass the bon-bons, please.

Those smart ladies probably didn't bother to attend this speech. They were too busy stocking up on birth control, fornicating outside marriage, and pondering which poor bloke to emasculate next with their shrill feminist diatribes.

Just YES to your entire last paragraph. It's possible to critique his stuff from a white POV, but it will never, can't ever be, a complete analysis that gets down to brass tacks as to why his films are popular, and why they're even more problematic than they seem on the surface.

It does make me wonder why Dodai isn't writing about it. I'd welcome a rebuttal, nay, rather, a companion piece to this article. The comparison of the two would prove rather interesting.

Spitballing here: I wonder, though, if he's not supported with such fervor solely because he is one of the few black people in Hollywood making shows and movies about the black experience, for black folks. There aren't many other options - perhaps they're latching on to the few pieces of work that actually come the…

All the Being Human GIFs forever from now on, please and thank you.

Either you've never listened to a rape apologist or you've never seen a football game. Or perhaps both.

I don't think that's what that square is implying though. It's not a person asking in the moment, it's the general public questioning later why a victim was drunk/was she really so drunk she didn't consent/dumb whore should have known better than to get drunk.

If you're going to publish the name of the accused, publish the name of the accuser in every case that doesn't get a conviction.

Thanks for reminding me of that story. Needed that.

The shittiness of the statement is twofold, and do not stem from what you're saying:

In 1997, the Ninth Circuit ruled in favor of a Russian lesbian seeking asylum, saying:

First of all, that's a terrible link because I am not going to go digging around their archives for whatever proof/study you're trying to enlighten us all to.

They can do that, make your areolas smaller with a breast reduction? I would have thought they'd just appear even larger on smaller boobs.

Tattooing one's body is in no way comparable to literal torture that crippled a woman for life.

I think if I were to tattoo myself there, I'd do black on the areolas and red on the nips, and then get nipple clamps shaped like light sabers. The nerd boys wouldn't be able to take their hands off me. "Pew pew! Zoom!"

I'm laughing because you included the old "white people can't dance" trope ("the rhythm," really? How WOULD one buy that, anyway? Do bigger tits instantly give me the ability to samba?), but olscrumby is probably closest to the mark as to your cultural questions regarding white women tanning, getting implants, etc.…

Your name makes so much sense now. :)

I used to serve at a restaurant where we had to hand-write and tally our own checks. When those inevitable jerks came in a group of ten wanting five separate checks, I told them straight-up I was naming their checks with names of my own making, and would tell them on the spot. Demanding old lady? "Miss Daisy." Helpful…
