I've actually had people pull me aside to inform me that they just noticed how big my butt was. It got to the point where if anyone tells me how I have a big butt I act really surprised as if I hadn't noticed until they so kindly told me.

Also, I'm really sorry that happened to you. I don't know about you, but it's hard for me to let stuff like that, whether its just a whistle or a sexually lewd comment, just roll of my back even though it happens to me almost daily. It pisses me off equally every time.
As someone who was a canvasser on the street, i can tell you that its his job to be super pushy and on the verge of annoying because it's what gets people to stop. However, it is super easy to be pushy and annoying about your cause without harassing people. "I knew you'd come back to me" is NOT ok and is sexual…
Going the Distance is really good, especially if you like celeste and jesse forever! its not as frilly, for lack of a better word, as most mainstream rom coms and its more explicitly sexual and has made me laugh out loud every time. Plus, its Drew barrymore and Justin Long :)
I feel like when it comes to age differences, unless you know the people really personally, you can't judge. I have a friend who was 18 when she started dating her boyfriend (31) and now they've been together for two years and they're really happy together. Plus, just speaking as a girl in this age group, guys who are…
I wonder if this movie passes the Bechdel test, seeing as it is called "Her" and involves four female supporting characters. Somehow, I wouldn't be surprised if it didn't pass.
Hey so your response isn't showing up? Idk why but I got a few notifications that you responded
Wow, you put that beautifully. I try to be open to all perspectives, but there are some that I just do not even know about, so all I can do is listen and educate myself. You showed me another perspective and reminded me that, to be honest, I need to listen more. Again, thank you for sharing.
maybe so. its still tone policing. I've only ever heard that argument come from white women, so if I assumed wrong, I am sorry.
Also, back to Michelle Obama, it bothers me so much that people are so critical of her because I could not possibly imagine anyone handling that job any better than she is. She makes her children her priority while tackling really big issues in America (like Melissa Harris-Perry said better than I ever could) LIKE…
aw gee thanks <3
I really respect that you and your husband discussed the connotations around choosing to take or not take your husband's family name. I also really appreciate you explaining it because it's not something I'm familiar with (I'm nowhere near having kids so its not something I think about that much). It's so fucked up…
Its possible. There's definitely a lot of ignorance around the comments.
thanks for that last part because i legit thought i had a yeast infection for a year when i was fourteen
I know of plenty who reject the "mom" title, I just don't know any on a personal level, that's all I was trying to say. Other than that, I totally agree with Melissa's point and your points. I also love seeing people call out how white the feminist movement is because I think it is an issue largely ignored on Jez
This is what is called tone policing. It is also the same argument that a lot of males make when females talk about males perpetuating sexism: "You're making broad generalizations to throw at all [males]. I'm not like all males. I'm not sexist."
I actually don't know that many feminists who reject the title of "mom." I, personally, as well as most feminists I know, have so much respect for mothers, especially single working mothers, because they have their "job" job(s) and they have their mother job. I do think that in the "feminist movement," too much…
Your reason for taking the name on your husband's side is a really valid one that I had never thought about before, so thank you. I think it's important to recognize where the tradition of taking a husband's name came from because it did come from women practically being owned by their husbands, but I think that as…
After having not watched SNL for a while, I sat through this entire episode. It was awful.
