I’ve always preferred drag kings to drag queens. I think society is more comfortable with seeing femininity as performative, but turning a spotlight on masculinity and making it performative can make people uncomfortable - it forces people to question how much of masculinity is innate “being a real men” and how much…

There it is, just for you: “Lesbian identities have always been sidelined...we’ve always slid under the radar,” Julia Applegate says. “I don’t think people are as interested in what women do, period. I don’t think we’re as interesting to people because we’re not as valued.” 

Alternate title: Publicist Does Her Job, Jezebel Writer Doesn’t Understand His.

I bet it’s really frustrating to try to promote your work, only to have it derailed and ignored by someone throwing a tantrum because he only wanted to talk about his interests, even though you’ve already made your views on that topic clear in the past ... just not with him.

The bigger issue here seems to be why you feel entitled to her answers, and why you think that she should have to talk about Matthew Weiner just because she has spoken out about sexism in the past.

Drag Race? In my gaming sub?

I think it’s concerning because it connotes that hating Nazis is a uniquely “liberal” trait, in contrast to conservatism, which, ummm, doesn’t hate Nazis according to your implication? Seems like you’ve really painted yourself into a corner here, but hey, if the shoe fits? I think we’ve seen enough from the…

I don’t think you’re a Nazi. You’ve said nothing over the course of the portion of your comment history that I personally am familiar with that would make me think such.

I do, however, think equating Wolfenstein II with Liberals is concerning. It doesn’t make you a Nazi at all—it just makes me wonder what the hell you…

Meme school. As would be expected of a place found by Jerry Falwell.

Isn’t this Jerry Falwells training ground for good little christian soldiers to learn young earth creationism as “science”?

I’m surprised they wouldn’t all get in trouble for playing satanic music at Jerry Falwell U.

Ugh. Nothing necessarily against these students, but Liberty University is just... ugh. It was founded by Jerry Falwell, who was probably responsible more than any single person for transforming the Republican Party into the party of religious zealots. You can draw a straight line from Falwell’s Moral Majority during…

I’m just so mad at Red Sparrow because I wanted the “real” Black Widow origin story instead...

These are the 33 Democrats who probably think Lucy will let Charlie Brown finally kick that football too.

I can totally see Aronofsky “confidentially sharing” in an interview that he has converted his wardrobe to all black turtlenecks so he can wring every drop of creative decision-making into his “art”.

Do you feel the same about medical research studies in which subjects with specific conditions are paid for their participation - when the treatment may not even do anything for them (or they may even be receiving a placebo)? Should doctors be required to forego payment for such (elective) procedures for patients that…

Team Lee.

She’s right; she is normalizing something a lot of people are embarrassed about and therefore less likely to seek medical attention for. There’s nothing exploitative about this since (at least in the ones I’ve seen) the videos don’t ID the patient.

This is the worst kind of article. The author simultaneously wants her condition to be de-stigmatized, but contests the destigmatizers. She can’t imagine that her experience is not the universal experience of anyone who would be in, or observe, a pimple-popping video.

Look, what he thought was gross but he thought it. He didn’t do anything or claim he assaults people. That is a completely different bag then Spacey being lauded on-screen while his horrified victims watch.

CBS Chicago says he was picked for a panel that ultimately wasn’t needed.
