Oh yeah, totally. Homophobic, sexist, gender-role bullshittery.

"it turns out that he's a bottom."
Huh. I always thought "witcho" was a preposition.
I call her Polly Prostitute, partly due to her fashion choices which includes boots, heels, and minis that barely cover her ass.
aaaaaaaand there it is, you have Godwin's Law-ed yourself in your own article. I'm not saying there is no way to relate these topics, but this is shoddy, bad writing. Its not even writing; all you've done is to shoehorn two images in at the end as if TA-DA! I've proved dolls = racism because book! See! See! .... This…
I think the problem she's expressing here is that Leia in a golden bikini, chained to Jabba, was the ONLY option. Leia is the lone female character in Star Wars minus a few ancillary characters like the female commander who was in that one scene that one time. For a young girl who wants to identify with a character…
I miss the old Polly Pocket. There was no dress up, just choking hazards.
I love the assumption she was pissy because Barack was talking to an attractive woman and not, say, solemn because she was at the funeral of a great man. It's gotta be all about the menz, amirite?
(sorry for the diatribe) Before reading this excerpt from Roxana Gay, I posted something similiar on Twitter. It really gets old to read and hear the constant posing of Michelle Obama as "angry" from many outlets. Even a black woman on FB posted the sequence of pictures promoting the "Michelle had to check the white…
The angry black woman is A Thing. There are different implications to assuming a black woman is angry than there are other resting bitch face sufferers. There is a history and a context there.
More importantly, it demeans a woman in a leadership position, with the default assumption that there is an implied sexual dynamic between any man and any woman who interact in any context. Two world leaders interact in a friendly manner, and because one is a woman, they are "flirting"?? If the Danish Prime Minister…
***ANGRY BLACK WOMAN ALERT***
...the response to these latest images of Michelle Obama speaks volumes about the expectations placed on black women in the public eye and how a black women's default emotional state is perceived as angry.
Actually, the constant perception that a Black woman doing anything besides smiling idiotically has an angry look on her face or is full of "attitude" is a racialized one. It is a perception that Black women are all too familiar with. It starts when we are teenagers and ends when we are dead. That some people don't…
It is depressing to live each day of your life, knowing you will never be as awesome as Michelle Obama, so I can see why people lash out, but really.
THANK YOU. It's like when people say someone "became a mother for the second time" — NO.
Both Kate Winslet and Ned Rocknroll gave birth? To the same infant? The mind. It boggles. I hope this freak accident of nature benefits humankind somehow.
1. Not okay with what Damien Lewis said.
Damn Peeta, the Hunger Games changed you.
To be fair, I'd be ok with 300 John Cusacks with boom boxes overhead.
