On a more cultural level, there are many women who go into OBGYN specialties with the distinct goal of refusing to provide abortions and fighting against them whenever possible. How this squares with the hippocratic oath, patient-centered care, or not being a complete traitor to your fellow woman is beyond me. A law…

Thank the religious right, which began to rise to power in the 80s and have successfully infiltrated every government in every state as well as on the federal level. Good times.

Part of the blame lies with the ‘Safe and legal’ language used during the clinton administration. The democratic party in selling abortion as something that is rare weakened it’s argument against the people that wished it’s abolition. This weakening meant that antiabortion nuts still had a foothold to fight against…

I cannot believe that abortion is still a contentious issue in 2019.

I mean, it’s pretty on-brand for an American teacher of the French language to be linguistically pedantic and a religious bigot in equal measures.

I’ll preface this by saying that I don’t typically do auto. Mostly liability like product liability, slip and falls and other stuff like that.

I mean, if your vehicle hits something while you’re using that feature, I’m going to hold you accountable.

Man...as an adjuster I can’t wait to hold some smug Model 3 summoning douche at fault for damage to property.

It was not progressive, and it certainly wasn’t “bleeding edge progress.” It was explicitly intended to be a compromise position, and that’s what it was. The result of the policy was that being openly gay meant discharge.  Source: I grew up in a progressive household and remember consternation over this.

Why are you gals so sensitive.............here, let me give you a back rub; you hair smells nice!

Lana Del Rey immediately seemed ridiculously out of place in this video/song. I’m kind of surprised she agreed to it, but yeah if it nabs her some more notoriety or the mentioned Bond song, I’m fine with it

100% agree. Nothing against the other two, really, but Lana, oh my...

Lana’s 30 seconds of singing was the most interesting part of it all.

Oh please. Lana shits bigger than the other two put together. This looks like someone’s older sister making a music video on TikTok with the two girls she’s babysitting.

I say this as someone who enjoys Lana Del Rey’s work — how is she in this music video? Her style is nothing like the other two, as evinced by her having nothing to do for most of this song at all. Did no one at the label know another female pop singer? Did Camila Cabello not return their phone calls?

In any case, this s…

Not only is Tessa Thompson bisexual, so is her character Valkyrie. She has a sapphic storyline in the upcoming Thor.

She went on to say ‘I don’t want to work with people like that’ which implies it wasn’t a friend but a professional in the field. I’m guessing a prospective agent or casting director.

I guess the case could be made that “cis” in this context could specifically mean the way cis women are handled, but it falls apart once you remember the actual things women who are trans get asked, which includes shit like... “are you a top or a bottom?”

Rich has the worst takes sometimes.

Right? I don’t see young cis pop stars being asked shit like “Do you like reverse cowgirl?” or whatever.
