I am starting to have an almost violent reaction to the use of the word “females” in reference to women. It’s so dehumanizing.

Yes!! You should get a ‘grab her by the brain’ hat for you and your female dog to commemorate! You are doing some amazing female empowerment work my friend!

How about you don’t grab them anywhere. Not the pussy, the brain, or anything in between.

I recently empowered my female dog to not barf her expensive prescription food all over the kitchen floor. She embraced the empowerment and barfed outside.

I know I love empowering females. Female kittens, female rabbits, female goats, female cannabis plants, female ducks. YOU NAME IT!

When I was about 22 ish (back when the Loch Ness monster was just a tadpole) a 60ish man put his hand down my skirt and squeezed my ass at a charity function. My then boyfriend tried to make me tell someone, but all I wanted to do was leave.

I wished for an October Surprise. This is like a month of Halloween. Like, after a few days, it’s not fun, anymore. You ate all your good candy, you have a stomach ache, you have to figure out what to do with the shitty candy, and your parents won’t let you take off your costume or wash off the day’s old makeup.

Double standard? What double standard?

Prison is for rehabilitation, not for retribution.

If anyone did deserve it, it would be him... But if we’re going to say that women prisoners being assaulted is wrong, I think we have to say the same about prisoners of all sexes and genders.

It’s not cool to joke about prison rape, so I’m just going to hope that he frequently gets the ever-loving shit beat out of him in a non-sexual way.

Wow I am in shock regarding someone making such comments regarding sexual assault and their experience working on the Island. I too work there and are you even aware of what a vulnerable and powerless person is? This just points to how civilians should be screened before stepping foot on the island. Ignorance of the…

OK, but how many years has it been since Nick Denton has seen Suri?

As a hairstylist that made me so sad. I’m like please dry your hair and do not do stressful things to it while it’s wet because that’s how you get ten million flyaways and also this person should get to touch no one’s hair but her own.

Most self-called beauty experts don’t have the first idea what to do with curly hair, let alone black women’s hair.

I don’t spit but I do grab them when they touch my hair. People get really freaked out and lose their shit about it.

I've actually spat on someone who touched my hair on the subway, albeit on their pants, not their face. When asked why I did it, I said I wanted to feel his leg.

This is why my effortless, under 1 minute style, consists of having 3/4 of my head shaved.

It’s distinctly possible that she is crazy and her fiance also is an abusive motherfucker. Dealing with mentally ill people is a test of character, and perhaps he failed.

Good. I work in DV advocacy. DV is already way under-reported.
