Thanks for the example! The reviewer is a total hack. Didn’t even know what the word “tessitura” means... just throwing out musical word salad.

This is bullshit.

I also hate how the music industry assumes that we all want to hear the higher range all the time.

Seriously people? Do you not listen to ANY hard rock with female vocalists? ‘Cause that’s how it sounds and it is awesome. I’m kind of impressed that Lady Gaga gave this style a try. Always love people stretching themselves and trying something different. Also, you are doing yourself a major disservice because there…

Interesting read! I definitely did not expect this amount of Ariana stanning, I will say.

Why do they do that, when they *pride themselves* on problem solving skills in other areas? (Well, I know why. Because they were taught that it works.). But listen, dudes, I’m all the time googling shit like how to cook a thing I’ve never cooked or how to get a stain out of a thing, as well as “man” stuff like how to…

Or how about the feigned ignorance to get out of anything? “How do I make spaghetti? So I put the water in the pot? How much? What is ‘boiling?’” I’ve found myself yelling “I REFUSE TO BELIEVE YOU ARE THIS INCOMPETENT” to soooo many men (my father, brother, husband, some random co-workers, etc.)

Ahh, thank you!!! I’d seen it before and lost the link.

Yuck- I would have been livid! Once I realized it, that is. Took me long enough to notice the holiday gender roles thing, where the aunts retire to the kitchen to clean up, and the uncles retire to the TV to watch sports. -Even the ones that don’t give a shit about sports.-

“No one plays the PR game like Yoko.” Except, of course, for pretty much every other successful entertainer, artist and entrepreneur. But, yeah, Yoko’s a fame-whore, eh?

I’m interested the most in hearing everyone’s smallest ones. One of mine, for example:

You know what gets me? This was the first thing I thought of: how Ono seems to be throwing a little shade Sean’s way, take that Sean, etc. And then I realized—

That was my first response, but good for her, having the integrity not only to launch this product but to also ignore her son's idiocy (he's an adult, she's not responsible for his actions anymore).

I’m hard on Yoko but oh my god—What if you had a child and that child grew up to be a Nice Guy?! The horror.

But...she’s a grown woman. There is no evidence she is incompetent. She can decide what level of safety is appropriate for her.

The state where you can literally have a gun range in your back yard a hundred feet from your neighbor’s house and they won’t let her live in a tree?

99% of accusations of cultural appropriation are utter bullshit anyways.

Last year I had pieces of cloth and clothespins in my kindergarten classroom that the kids would make outfits out of. One day at sharing time two little boys proudly stood in front of the class to show off the dresses they had made.

I disagree! That middle sash looks similar to me. Anyway it’s just my opinion, maaan.

I kind of read the exact opposite from this statement. It feels like Alexis’s brother was being very careful in his use of language and was very respectful of Alexis’s preferences/wishes.
