The early seasons (1 & 2). That’s good to know they change reviewers, I’ll have to keep reading them.

Really? But Don is self-aware, he knows he’s a shitty person, and sometimes tries to make it better. Pete is genuinely under the impression that he’s one of the nicest, greatest, most competant men out there; his self-delusion knows no bounds.

No, Pete is the actual worst. And I judge people who like him. Like, I was reading the AV Club recaps, and they’d be like “well, Betty’s such a child, emotionally. But I really love Pete, he’s so easy to identify with”, and I just want to punch them all for it. Cuz no one is an entitled little baby like Pete. I’m…

Ok, that’s fair, I would agree with that.

Is it really a handful, though? Because, in my own personal offline experiences, this is by far and away the most common kind of feminist (especially, but not exclusively, on college campuses). There are, to be sure, some really fantastic feminists out there, but I have to search really hard to find them.

Like what? Do you actually have a question, beyond “these seem to be two viewpoints that exist, and one is clearly stupid, would you bitches like to fight over it again in front of me?” Cuz I’ve asked tons of questions on here, and not once has someone told me to butt out. But I don’t need to entertain some dude who’s…

Literally all you have to do is go read a few extra Jezebel articles.

Inclusivity? Progress? That’s what’s getting derailed. Rehashing this conversation for the 22 millionth time hasn’t actually gotten us closer to resolving it. But it has created yet another opportunity for me to be reminded that straight women are unaware of their own particularism, and that feminism does not exist…

That’s nice that you’ve struggled with those questions. I, too, have struggled with those questions. And I’ve come to the conclusion that people actually just need to stop asking the question. Every time the question gets asked, a bunch of straight ladies who have no fucking clue what sort of experiences have shaped…

Really, you call everyone else on here irrational and say they’re showing the WORST sides of themselves, and then when I tell you to knock it off, you reply to me 3 freaking times to call me vitriolic and condescening, and then tell me how disappointed in me you are?

Awwwww, thanks! That’s really nice to hear.

It was a valid question like 50 years ago. But since it was first posed, feminists have debated it ad nausium. Constantly asking if women can ever really be feminists if they wear the clothes they wear has severely hurt feminism; women don’t want to come march for abortion rights and paid maternity leave if they’re…

I dunno - you might not know that Ovid, specifically, loves a good rape joke, but it doesn’t seem hard to figure out that something wrote centuries ago is probably not going to live up to modern sensibility in one way or another. Literature and history seem emensly comparable, in that it’s fairly intiutable that a…

Shit like this is why every time I try to hang out with my local kink community, I have to stop. And it sucks.

I mean Jezebel used to publish Pot Psychology, so I think if the authorities were going to crack down on them for publishing this sort of thing, it would have happened long ago.

Do you have to know each and every guy on the subway who opens his trench coat and exposes himself in order to know why they’re doing it, and make a judgement about if it is or isn’t ok?

They aren’t exposing themselves, but the underlying drive is the same. And the drive is what makes the difference between exposing yourself (purposefully), and having an accidental nip-slip or not realizing your shirtdress needs an extra snap in the upper thigh region.

True, but kissing isn’t necessarily about anything more. This is more like exposing yourself in public - the point is to get all turned on by the idea of these strangers non-consensually looking at you, and then go home and masturbate/fuck to the memory.

Thank you! These two people are not the only people who need to consent for this to be ok.

I don’t think that this is degrading to women or that kink is harmful or whatever. BUT. This isn’t entirely consensual kink.
