I think this article would be greatly strengthened by actually defining what it means by “second-wave feminism.”

The last time I went to France (about 6 years ago admittedly) so many young women were wearing rolled-up light-denim shorts over black sheer tights. They all looked like they were wearing diapers. It made me deeply question why we think the French are stylish.

Whatever dude. Your comments have about 30 different shades of victim blaming.

All I can say is that Bjork was pretty dismissive of feminism before “Dancer,” suggesting it was like someone screaming in a cage that they’re trapped when the gate is open. She did a complete 180 wrt to women’s oppression after that movie,…

Well, no, it’s because they think it’s committing murder. I don’t agree at all but I can at least understand their point.

Did you read what you literally just quoted? It’s not platonic, it’s a romantic affair. Fucking hell. Do you really think she’d be considering going solo with a fucking newborn over a secret *friendship* she didn’t approve of?

I gave an open welcome for my ex to hang out with a former girlfriend who’d move back to the city because I didn’t want to be THAT girl (jealous, controlling) even though I sensed something was up. Two months later he dumped me for her. So yeah, it works both ways, honey. This woman had a bad feeling about the…

You can retroactively justify yourself by strawmanning the OP all you want, but someone who throws around the term “gold-digger” with respect to a soon-to-be new mom who just found our her spouse is a had, in her words, a “full-fledged affair” behind her back for five years has at least some internalized misogyny to…

Don’t you have an MRA rally to get to?

Diversionary nonsense. You didn’t bring up her racism until people rightfully called you out on your disgusting frat-boy comments about her body. You don’t care about intersectional feminism one iota, otherwise you would never use the tactics of your oppressors (namely de-humanizing women by reducing them to their…

I wonder when all the self-described feminists on this site will clue into the fact that they hold Lena Dunham to a much higher standard than they would literally any man ever.

When the rhetoric you use (body shaming women) is no different from a misogynist troll, you are, ipso facto, a misogynist troll.

The fuck is this comment even getting so many likes on a so-called feminist website?

Hey asshole:

I don’t think the OP was implying that gluten causes autism. I’ve heard some people claim that certain foods can trigger behavioural issues in some people on the spectrum. *shrug* I have no idea if that’s actually true though.

When you think about the displacement and projection needed to defend your victimizers, it’s pretty much the height of cognitive sophistication. Nothing animalistic about it, unfortunately—it’s uniquely and depressingly human.

They won’t. The victim blaming narratives will kick right in. From a bully’s mindset, she just proved just how pathetic she really was by killing herself. Rest assured for many she’ll continue to be a figure of ridicule for years to come.

And no, bullying has not become ‘worse’ lately. The violence my parents and…

Looked over this POS’s Wikipedia. His list of assaults is miles long. How is he not in jail? From the looks of it this stunt should put him in violation of his probation if nothing else.

I agree with your sentiment, but let’s lay off the hunter-gatherers (which includes some of the most oppressed and endangered populations on the planet). Modernity =/= morality.

Biden has always been a strong proponent of clone marriage.

She also ferried him frequently to a gay bar. Her husband. To a gay bar. I agree it’s troubling she didn’t go to the police but if she has learning disabilities and is paired with an abusive SOB? I’m willing to give her the benefit of a doubt that she might not have been capable of taking action.

Not all learning disabilities are the same. In her case, it sounds like she has trouble with abstractions. She might not be able to connect purchasing bullets to a larger “plan” for instance. She may still be complicit, but if her special education teacher is willing to publicly go to bat for her and claim she would…
