"There is no room for the idea that Kyle might have been a good soldier but a bad guy; or a mediocre guy doing a difficult job badly; or a complex guy in a bad war who convinced himself he loved killing to cope with an impossible situation; or a straight-up serial killer exploiting an oppressive system that, yes,…

Her original costume was clever. It was iconic. The character design told you everything you needed to know about who she was. Her new costumes are just "Look, boobs!" No style, nothing to tie her to her namesake. They're yet another example of DC trying to cater to the stereotypical basement dwelling nerd.

I agree, she looks like a Suicide Girl reject.

As long as Avril Lavigne is alive, Hot Topic will never go out of business.

Batman is one of those comics where the hero is basically a villain and the villains are sympathetic. Harley Quinn is the best example because her story is so tragic. She's been abused, brainwashed, she basically has severe Stockholm Syndrome, her relationship with the Joker is seriously unhealthy and often not funny.…

• The investigation of Dol Guldor has been completely excised
  
  Like, all of the Sauron/Necromancer stuff? Because I know most of it wasn't in the book, but it was one of the better additions to the movie. Most of the rest, though, yeah, cut the shit out of it. Especially the weasley dude with eyebrows who for some reason…

I think it's important to distinguish between porn for profit (which includes page 3) and amateur porn that people make for fun with no attempt to profit in any way. Porn for profit has a history of exploiting women for the amusement of men, and it's gotten steadily worse. Lots of feminists are against porn for…

Having womens breast at display for male enticement, once again an instance of reducing female attractivity to body parts presented on a plate for men is not about objectification? Right. This free choice argument is silly, it ignores all the conditioning and self-objectification women go through. Take two rats,…

I wouldn't say it's the same for men but I get what you're saying. The way I see it, showing naked people in and of itself isn't the worst part. It's the context. What we should do is dial down the sexist connotations, such as showing women acting as tables or rugs and women being dominated by men in gang rape-like…

yeah, I know that, but still the mainstream feminist current seems to be against page 3 but pro (mainstream) porn. I am really interested in understanding the arguments

For me personally, it's more that objectification has been so one-sided for so long. I sort of accept that there will be demand for pictures of naked people, but I'd rather there be some diversity as long as it exists. Why it's always women or white women or a certain kind of woman - that bothers me. That, and this…

Because not all feminists agree with each other?

Slut-shaming is absolutely no-go territory, but I do not see any problem with pointing out the absurd degree of hypocrisy here. Holly made a name for herself in the rwnj-o-sphere trading on her status as the loyal, good Christian, patriotic military wife. She threw her metaphorical street cred around to demean other…

I am very confused by the empowerment vs. objectification stance people take. How comes this is objectification and not ok and for instance porn is? I'm not against porn per se, and truly hope for a future where women can be as open & adventurous sexually, but according to the "free" choice argument (which imo…

Sooo, who else is guessing that this "civil conversation" involved a not-so-subtle reminder that he's a trained combat veteran who's qualified to use several ex-military firearms?

This dude's entire life is about humiliating women. It clearly doesn't matter what side of the fence they're on.

Wowwwwww he pulled that "she needs to ask for forgiveness" bullshit on her husband?!

Republicans. They can dish it but they can't take it. If this was a high profile liberal's wife, the gloating and smarmy tweets and Fox News stories would be innumerable.

Little do they suspect that once puberty hits, those boys will all gain superpowers. Puberty gives boys the ability to juggle semi-trucks with their testicles, and fire lasers from their mouths, thus improving their basketball ability beyond the reach of girls, who upon puberty only gain boobs.
