It’s absolutely fair to say that when the one coming up short was an active participant in normalizing Trump and is still giving weak statements today. If Fallon wanted to stay out of politics, he would stay out of politics. He doesn’t get to have candidates on his show, goof around with maniacs who have built their…

Where would you possibly get the idea that Black women have to be in positions that they are not qualified for, and that every decent job we get is because of affirmative action? (You know, besides from racism, I mean.) I guess you are not aware that white women are actually the most common recipients of affirmative…

I am a black woman who has made more money than her white male counterparts most of my life. And yet, I know that 1) I should have been making more for what I contributed, and 2) I was still kept out of the upper strata of various positions for no possible reason than my being a black woman.

69 percent of black women perceive that there is pay inequity, compared to only 44 percent of white men.

Well I for one am shocked, simply SHOCKED, that a guy who videotaped himself committing statutory rape and urinating on a child only to inexplicably get away with it without any legal or professional consequences whatsoever would go on to continue behaving in an inappropriate fashion. Who could have possibly predicted…

Looks like they blew the special effects budget on a Snapchat mustache filter.

Absolutely they can have an opinion. Whether or not that opinion is worth a damn is another.

How much do you want to bet these men who say it’s “Too dark” for them to watch are the same men who enjoy the heavy, complicated storylines of The Walking Dead or Game of Thrones? “It’s dark” means “It’s going to make me think deeper about my privilege and the struggles of my female companions, something I’ve been…

i feel sorry for rory gilmore for the first time in a very long time.

Two things.

Cummins and the teenager, Elizabeth Thomas, have been missing since March 13 when the pair fled Culleoka (they were facing an investigation into their supposed sexual relationship after a fellow student claimed they saw them kissing in an empty classroom).

I was married (am no longer!!) to a chiropractor that LOVED places like this. I have many opinions on chiropractors (I actually helped put him through school- I was young!!) and none are very positive.

This is a great point. As someone who has had‘fantasies’ that disgust and horrify myself, the entire narrative that anything and everything is okay as long as it is fantasy is very harmful. One has to disengage from that sort of thinking, keep a strict distance between the fantasy itself and indulging in it and…

About five years ago, my husband Adam and I decided that it was finally time to start looking to purchase a house. We had always talked about buying an older, fixer upper home because we’ve had the idea that they hold more charm and character. Plus we can appreciate a place that has it’s own quirks and we love the…

I feel like it would turn my boobs into two disobedient obese housecats who keep running off into inconvenient directions when I need them to sit still.

I think most (maybe not all) feminists recognize that it’s possible to make good jokes about rape. It’s all about punching up versus punching down. The Reductress articles are perfect examples of rape jokes that punch up—the thing being made fun of is the perpetuators of rape culture, not the act of rape or victims of…

my (former) uncle brought his mistress to the hospital where my aunt had just had their second child and announced that he was leaving her because she'd let herself go. When he died some years later in a homeless shelter in Baltimore everyone was real happy

I've told this story before here. But.

I have been inspired to create a series called "Ripps."

Judging from all the defensive and whiny-ass responses, I'd say not all men realize how funny this is.
