You’re part of the problem by saying #notallmen instead of saying #nothing.

Seeing a lot of people replying to his tweet calling him “brave” and “courageous”, and, nope. I’m glad he realizes what he did was wrong, and hopefully he’s sincere about his desire to change, but he doesn’t deserve to be rewarded with praise for this.

Sarah Paulson is 42 years old. She’s a big girl who can make her own choices.

I also liked that he complained about being infantilized, and the solution involved dressing him in an oversized hat, colorful robes, and giving him a big wand to hold in the air. All undoubtably accurate, but I though it made him look like a big baby.

I sometimes speculate what The Crown would be like if this was more in line with British royalty dramas set in more remote time periods, i.e., with more dramatic license. In that version of The Crown, Lascelles kills Eileen with that rifle he was reintroduced holding, as a way to keep a lid on the scandal.

“Needs more cats.”

The whole thing looks obnoxious. And can someone please explain to me why inspirational quotes are so fucking popular with women? I feel like half my social media feed is women posting this shit in some stylized mock-handwritten font.

Good for her!

I explained it in terms of power. ‘All throughout history, men have had the power. They have spread ideas that are wrong, like women not being smart enough, or only existing to stay at home and have babies, to stay in power. Women have to work twice as hard to have what men do. Men still want to stay in power. One way…

It really is changing. My 8-year-old son is a stone-cold feminist. I explained the concept of ‘male privilege’ to him over lunch the other day and he totally got it.

I have now learned to be terrified that the men who are our best allies end up being named by someone as abusers. That’s how I read these now: if someone is just as awesome as John Oliver, all I feel is dread that he’s a wolf in sheep clothing.

I dunno he looks like identical to his grandpa.

Michelle Obama changed that for me. Until then I - independent! feminist! free spirit! - had also swallowed my pain and fear. And then there was this amazing woman, saying: “IT HURTS!” and I felt as if for the first time in my life, I was given permission to feel this way! I had gone straight into the trap of “wanting…

And still is. Playing the cool girl, changing you’re name after you’re married, all of choice feminism, taking sex positivity to the extreme. Pop feminism is still about women fearing men calling them stuck up, prude, drama-causing, etc. Internalized misogyny is difficult to kick if you aren’t already ok with being…

Generational note.

My husband and I used to have this problem. If we have a stressor, I want to discuss it to death and he wants to leave it alone until he’s ready. We finally agreed on a ten minute venting session where I can let fly, and then we put it away. It’s been surprisingly good for me, he’s much less stressed, and we don’t…

Just gotta get through this, Melania, she thinks as she walks through the whispering wood. Just gotta get through this.
