“Just isn’t relatable”. More like it wasn’t a show about or for trans people...it was literally Caitlyn being as narcissistic as humanly possible.

A staunchly Republican Transgender Olympic Athlete is not relateable?

I watched and enjoyed it immensely while it was on air....when I was a teenager. I try to re-watch it now and it just doesn’t translate well into the present.

I think there’s a feminist case to be made for the characterizations of Miranda and Samantha, but not for the show as a whole.

Not surprising. Carrie Bradshaw was a terrible character. She was a terrible person and friend, but marketed as a modern woman. A good friend would not bail on her friend because she saw her ex in the same theatre. And she also wouldn’t harass her financially responsible friend for money.

I understand, SJP. I don’t like the color blue, I just think we should all wear cerulean and azure.

People who reject the feminist label to be a ‘humanist’, and people who believe in All Lives Matter over Black Lives Matter are examples of people who stand in the way of social progress. They’re obstacles to a better, equal society. They help to validate the opinion that disadvantaged groups aren’t actually…

LOL good now I can stop having arguments with people who insist Sex and the City is “empowering” because “feminism”.

We get it, you’re voting for Trump or trolling for Theil.

I like to think there’s a difference between a tinfoil hat fake news site and a center-left one.

The difference is that only one of those news sources was attempting to be objectively dishonest.

Putting Gawker in the same ballpark as Breitbart makes you look stupid

They should have known when they zoomed in on the photo and noticed more black people in attendance than will actually vote for Trump in November.

You’re not alone. And it was totally something I had to learn about racism. While oppression is oppression, just because I’m female and oppressed for that, I in no way can understand what it’s like to be black. I can TRY. I can be an ally. I can LISTEN (this is so damn important - thank you). But I damn well better…

Obama’s short essay is certainly trying to make a neutral appeal of women’s value, but the nature of that appeal strikes as outmoded as the very gender stereotypes he addresses. In the narrative of “dad feminism,” women’s equality is still bound and dependent on their relationship with men.

I think what you’re experiencing is totally valid, and as a white woman, something I’ve felt when trying to be anti-racist. For me, it was coming to terms with that discomfort and not letting it bother me. Stay educated, keep listening, and keep teaching your fellow men. People will come down on you for it. But are…

Damn, Sasha. Those frames are fucking amazing.

UGH I can’t get over how beautiful they are, every damn time.

Like many working mothers, she worried about the expectations and judgments of how she should handle the trade-offs, knowing that few people would question my choices. And the reality was that when our girls were young, I was often away from home serving in the state legislature, while also juggling my teaching…

So if you’re being sexually assaulted by a police officer it is now a hate crime to defend yourself. Cool.

Don’t. Go shopping!
