I didn’t see it as a dig, quite the opposite. Faye Dunaway is a fucking legend but she doesn’t have the economic power to match, and the only explanation for that is sexism.

fuck “class”. she’s trying to make real change in the industry. expecting women to be “classy” while they work hard at things is just another way of policing them.

She’s not dragging Faye, but rather pointing out how dispossable women are in Hollywood. Faye was huge in the late-60s/70s, was in films that made money, had massive critical acclaim, and an Oscar to boot. Then, she made two films that flopped, and her career was dead. She has tried resurrecting it - even going over…

Lesotho depends almost entirely upon diamond exports for its economy,

Why exactly do we need to not forget that?She was neither a politician nor an activist who is leaving behind a legacy of harming many others through her backwards views. Do you go to funerals and walk around reminding people of the deceased’s faults?A woman whose music obviously touched the lives of millions of…

I appreciate that society is considerably more derisive toward fat people than thin, but that does not make thin bodies fair game for judgement/snark/policing/concern trolling/&c.

Well I assume skinny people eat sometimes. I also assume they may eat with others on occasion as well. I know I do. Although I do prefer to eat alone. I don’t think it’s due to my small frame though, I just don’t like people watching me eat. Too many comments about how I’m able to eat such massive amounts despite my…

Nobody cares what you find attractive. That’s not what this is about.

My problem is less that there are very thin women modeling fashion, but that very thin women are pretty much the only ones modeling fashion*. Thin women should be represented, and should have clothes options that fit well, wear well, and come in a range of style options. But, so should fat women, so should short…

Thank you for mentioning this yet again. Way back when, Jez had a balance of male and female commenters, but Jez was a different, more lighthearted beast back then.

What is the discord app?

I am a man

obvious guy misses obvious point

Uh, is this like a meta thing you’re going for?

Them on every new sexual harassment/assault reveal: “Wow, noted creep is a creep.”

This is why I don’t comment anymore. Every time I see a few usernames I want to scream at them to shut the fuck up and listen for once in their goddamn lives, but I don’t want to be re-grayed for starting shit. If you’re a dude who comments repeatedly on almost every post and are reading this right now: please know…

It’s frustrating and aggravating that despite the numerous times this has come up-it came up again yesterday-the worst offenders refuse to be mindful of how much oxygen they are taking up in a space specifically for women (it’s in the tag line even!) and continue to manspread on every post, including those posts about…

I’m sort of bummed with Jez currently. The commentariet seems to be taken over by a lot of dudes who get in first to mansplain all the sex shenanigans, give their hot takes on Trump etc., and generally dominate the threads. This really used to be a place for women to give their opinions, reveal their stories, and…

I don’t want to pile on. I know you said you know it’s irrational.

What the hell are you going on about? She seems like the type of person who would vote for Trump? Seriously? I’m not like, a Nancy Kerrigan fan, but damn you seem to hate her for no reason (because she’s “not appealing”). As long as we’re bringing politics into it, you sound like the type of person who would have…
