1. He received a mailed death threat to his studio the week prior (but turned down a security detail because it was “intrusive”)

And this is what happens when people without advanced scientific degrees get to thinkin’ reeeaaal hard about how to justify their own racist biases.

The composition of a fast-twitch muscle is literally millions (if not billions or trillions) of times LESS complex than the human brain.

Yes, because socialization has NOTHING to do with that. Are there a bunch of Asian moms encouraging their kids to play basketball? How about black families living in areas that offer mathletics at their schools?

Kareem Abduj-Jabarr, noted scholar and Doctor of Philosophy, would probably have a lot to say about why more…

Don’t worry, he was a misogynistic, racist asshole even when he was younger. Just ask Rosalind Franklin, and read about how he treated her in the lab ;)

He didn’t get stripped of an award - he was stripped of his Emeriti titles, which is completely different. It’s basically like a symbolic position on an Advisory Board.. He still has his Nobel Prize - he just sold the medal for cash a few years back.

No one is erasing Watson’s legacy - they are simply adding the nuance…

It’s possible that you have a slight latex allergy, then!

Re: expensive waxing, I really recommend Sally Hansen’s line of at-home waxing. It’s like... $14 for a big ole jar of microwaveable wax, and the company does one specifically for sensitive areas like face/neck/bikini line. Literally has saved me (and my 3-hairs-per-follicle Eastern European hairiness) a fortune over…

So if men share naked photos of their girlfriends or exes it’s (rightly) labeled fucked-up, but if a woman does it, Jezebel links to the story? Yikes, y’all. Noooot a good look. No one should have their naked pictures shared without their consent, not even an evil billionaire. 

You might be thinking of Peppermint. Here’s a good list!

Yep, a lot of us are (admittedly confusingly) discussing drag and the appropriateness of “appropriating” women’s experiences in a larger context than just RuPaul’s Drag Race (which only shows a tiny sliver of drag culture). It’s a fascinating community, if you ever have the time to delve into it!

Wow, that is a super false equivalency, and gay-ification is just a terrible portmanteau.

Calling a gay sex scene that actually has no or very little nudity “gay porn” where straight sex scenes are just as - if not more - explicit, is pretty lame. We see more of Theon’s dick while he’s having VERY HETERO sex (or just…

To my knowledge, the show has never had a trans man (read: transitioned from female to male) compete. I can’t speak for other commenters, but my comment was in the context of your question of why the CIS part of CIS male is an important qualifier in the context of menstruation, not necessarily in the context of Drag…

Yep, that’s true up until this season on All-Stars. They changed the policy recently and Gia Gunn is, as far as I am aware, the first out trans-woman on the show. She didn’t come out on the show, and transitioned pre-show.

That’s not to say RuPaul’s Drag Race guidelines haven’t been (and still aren’t) problematic, but…

Although if your erection lasts more than 4 hours, I guarantee you there is going to be some pain involved ;)

Botox 100% has a code (used for migraines in addition to plastics).

Because trans guys can still menstruate, depending on whether or not they have chosen to take hormones or have yet to transition physically.

There is a trans(itioned) queen on the show this season, actually.

Knowing most men, I’m sure they think they’re telling the truth - because they don’t know what a woman seeming uncomfortable even looks like. 

Some of us actually don’t have much of a problem at all with Marie Kondo-ing abusers who also make things we used to like.
