Ok, I was just gonna kind of leave you to it, but fine... I don’t think anyone is saying THIS <<<- is racist, in and of itself. They are saying this is a race issue. Those are not the same thing, but I’m losing faith in your capacity to understand nuance. So here goes. Nothing happens in a vacuum. Culture is a meaning…

“you guys would be throwing out the same complaint...” That is coded. If you dont know, perhaps you just aren’t as educated on the subject. You clearly do not understand the hurtful history that dark skin and big lips and wide noses and curves has in this country. And fuller lips on white women being seen as a…

@digbette did a really good and thorough job in explaining why this is in part a race issue. Your coded language is troubling. You immediately going to the “you are saying white girls can’t have big lips” reeks of this new found white victimhood and denial of privilege that seems to be running rampant. Understand that…

Ok. Well, the fact that it’s “not fair” is the race issue. Racism is not fair. That is why it is racist.

OK. Well... let’s take it back a few steps?

I think the real question is how hard are you straining to not see this is a race issue?

Sooo, am I the only person that read the article?

It's also a joke that has been done to death by various comedians already. See Jim Gaffigan:

LOL, wut? YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH, weeds! It's all the same!!!!!!!

"...chalupas, or quesadillas, or crunchwraps, or...look, does it matter what he wanted? They're all the same damn thing anyway..."

Full and total rejection of the gender binary in such a way as will benefit whatever minor aggrievement they face as cis folk.

Lol best comment ever! His name and all spellings of it ie. aiden aidan aden adenn ayden aydin are actually a joke in the trans male community because its such a commonly chosen (and hideous) name

Didn’t know I was going to need a ‘Go fuck yourself’ form letter for this comment section, but I guess that’s what I get for assuming for once cis people might try and think about an issue from a trans perspective instead of their own. An out trans man on the cover of a men’s health magazine tells the world, and…

Well he should probably be black too, otherwise he isn’t sufficiently fighting racism.

She was absolutely, 100% unequivocally wronged and had her property stolen.

My first instinct was to dismiss this comment, but I’m not going to do that. Many readers, including myself, like Kitchenette and enjoy used to enjoy Pinkham. I personally don’t mind if he keeps writing here as long as he (or someone) addresses the horrible things he wrote, head on, like an adult would. Not everyone…

Speaking of Uber, is no one seriously going to make any statement about the fact this site is willingly employing a racist and sexist. The man called Spanish a ghetto language for christ sakes. He harassed a crap ton of readers with violence. Does that not warrant, at least some kind of acknowledgement? I don’t care…

Of course he has an answer. 'Get cancer and fucked by a rake."

Any response to the 1000+ comments concerning your writing here, on Groupthink, and on Live Journal?

Are you saying that without viable role models, minorities tend not to enter certain professions? That systematic racism reproduces itself and leads to disparities like this? I’m SHOCKED.
