    Yeah, but she was not a WASP and she and JFK got shit for being Catholic. It’s a really good example of how our definition of whiteness has changed, since they ARE the definition of whiteness, and yet in the late 19th century the son of an Irish immigrant would never have been considered white.

    YES. Plus both Jackie and Michelle were both “firsts” and gave hope to the nation. Jackie - first Catholic couple in the White House, things looked bright. Michelle - first Black couple in the White House, things looked bright Both so smart.

    Kim has the body type of a lot of Mediterranean women. She is still white and gets all the privileges thereof. And JLo was famous a few years before KimK came on the scene and is actually a POC and has a talent.

    Except... Jackie wasn’t a WASP. They were the first and only Catholic couple in the White House. It was a huge deal. And Kim is white,

    Awww, I like that version better.

    I want to fuck other people, cool? I’d say, more like, “babe, I’m already fucking other people. I need you to be cool with it.” I do not buy that he’s asking for permission. Even if he were, fuck him for waiting 2 years.

    What the fuck? They’re only boyfriend and girlfriend? They’ve been together longer than a lot of married couples, and there’s clearly a commitment, currently, at least, only on her part. Breaking up is less complicated because they’re not married and there are no kids. But for fuck’s sake, plenty of unmarried people

    Eh. I think a white reporter with a very Jewish name would probably get shit from these white nationalists. Hell, I’d imagine a reporter from Venezuela, whose grandparents are all from Germany, if the first name sounded Spanish, would get zero luck either.

    You know there’s that old joke, that during WW2 there was an army base in the American South, and a woman in the area, a very wealthy woman, called up the base and said she wanted to host a dinner for some of the servicemen, but she asked for “no Jews, please,” and so her request was obeyed. She opened her door to 4

    He is absolutely already cheating on her. And if he isn’t, he deserves props for nothing. He’d deserve props if he spoke to her after a month, not 2 years. And he’d deserve props if he worked with her to find a way to make sex more satisfying for her and him, not telling her opening up is the only way.

    That seriously sucks if you’re a straight person in a relationship with someone who figures out they’re gay while they’re with you. But wow, that is fucked up. I hope your friend is happy and his ex apologized at some point.

    For the third letter, it sounds like he’s already opened up the relationship and has now gotten to letting her know about it. Otherwise, I’d imagine he’d be more open to other solutions.

    Why is that stupid? Behavior IS always a choice. Just...heterosexuual people are also choosing to engage in a certain behavior. Acting on attraction is always a choice. The problem isn’t saying that gay people are choosing to behave in a certain way. The problem is that he is acting like only gay people are making a

    Ok. So yes. Engaging in lgbt behavior IS a choice. So is engaging in heterosexual behavior. We make a choice on whether to act on our attractions. I don’t understand what that has to do with pedophilia. Like, I am sure there are some adults who are attracted to children but choose not to act on that attraction. But, I

    You are kidding? I seriously thought she was in her mid-40s.

    I am ashamed of how many books I’ve read about Leopold and Loeb. I think if they hadn’t come from such wealthy families, they would never have been caught. The eyeglasses did them in.

    I get what you are saying. I just think of a few people I know whose spouses/partners cheated on them, and the other side was, “I was unhappy, I met this great person...” Like, ok, that is your reason, but so fucking what?

    Huh. I haven’t watched in forever

    Sometimes humanity does not disappoint. That is really cool.

    Wtf? How did I not know this was a thing? Sigh. My ass really needs to get on twitter.
