Paid protesting is real, but doesn’t mean the cause isn’t just. I have 2 friends that are “community activists” and their job is to rally people and groups into protesting. They usually speak at a church or school and pass out flyers for the protest. Like a party promoter really. But for a cause.

All women have experienced some form of sexual assault, and most have been made to feel it’s normal or that they were part of the problem. I’ll never forget when, at 11,I had a dance recital and was waiting for my turn on stage. I dared to walk around backstage in my leotard, and a patron saw me as she passed by, an…

The criminals here are the mother and father. The father for being abusive in front of his children and mom for allowing it for so long. Parents have a responsibility to protect, even from another parent. Shame on the mom for putting her burden on that young girl.

I volunteer with charities for the abused and men are overwhelmingly the perpetrators of sexual and violent abuse. It is almost always due to misogynist cultures that expect women and children to be second class citizens; however organizations and industries run by men tend to have this problem. Another piece of the…

Thank you! Especially considering her own past with NOT helping black actresses and wanting to slam the door shut on her way up and out.

Gabby, you were and always will be a male-defender at all costs. You are not for women on any level, and especially not black women, like the black ex wife whose marriage you helped break apart and kids you keep referencing as your own,or the many black women you admittedly mean-girled in Hollywood. Nice attempt at…

Ex-teacher here who quit because u couldn’t stand the parents, loved the kids tho. Fidgeting really is s thing with little kids and can be disruptive. Usually you reach out to the parents first, and I’m willing to bet this teacher sent home notes and maybe even spoke with the parents. She probably just snapped, which…

The drug addict who liked to trash hotel rooms with Kate Moss in the 90s gross? No way.

Your friend was the exception, not the rule. She sounds like she was living in an abusive home which is a problem in itself that the law should’ve handled...for families health issues include abortion and parents have a right to know.

I could cry I’m so happy you posted this rational, logical, well-meaning comment. WTF? Teenagers are effing children. They can’t- and shouldn’t- vote, can’t work full time, can’t have sex with adults, can’t buy alcohol, but can get an abortion without consent? This isn’t something to be proud or happy about....this…

Proud Texan who also hopes that Texas never changes. We have a far lower gun-crime rate than most other states, fewer school shootings, and fewer gun crimes in general than super liberal states with a similar elementary-school thought process as the author of this article. I’m not going to go into a long rant. I’ll…

When someone rich and prominent moves to a struggling neighborhood, gentrification soon follows and “the people” soon are pushed out. Many working class neighborhoods loathe when the rich stay moving in and raising property taxes and home values. You’d think the writer of this column would know that.

You clearly don’t pay attention. These women desperately want a voice because they’ve been denied one for about 20 years. They actively campaign their stories to the media but have gotten no where. Just like with Bill Cosby, it takes another man to give many many women a voice, but they want their time to speak out…

Because she was a very young woman. Turning 18 means you’re an adult legally, but mentally and emotionally what’s so different about that one year? Most teenagers don’t mature until well after college.

Great source....

The irony of jezebel writers, simultaneously supporting a pos like hillary Clinton who did exactly what Camille is doing while writing hit pieces on Mrs Cosby. And why do we love to blame victims? Especially when the victim is a woman? Mrs Cosby is just as much a victim in all this as the raped women. Anyone who knows…

Thanks for the clarification. I loathe when people talk about diversity in terms of surface-level appearances. If there is no diverse middle class, then it’s really not diverse because people aren’t actually mixing company.

No they won’t, because the gender issue is nothing like the race issue. I despise people like you who belittle the black community by comparing gender and LGBT issues to our civil rights plight. They are not similar, at all.

Susan has made her mark and doesn’t need to politic any longer, so she can make truthful statements and real talk, while other celebs are just too scared for their jobs.

Am I the only one who thinks she’s referencing the women in her family and also using the cheating symbolically to represent the way life has cheated so many black women? Am I the only one who thinks if Camel did cheat, she’s bout it enough to cheat as well? This woman is not an international superstar for nothing,…
