I gotta admit, Madonna looks pretty amazing.

Part of what makes rape so bad is not the anatomy of it - it is the hate crime aspect. Being denied a seat at a lunch counter would be a mere annoyance if it was done out of petty interpersonal meanness; being denied a seat at a lunch counter as a reminder that your entire race is both casually and systemically…

Well it wasn't so much that she was baking, it was that it was so obvious that it was something she never does and was only doing it to impress people. Like, if they had walked in and she was baking cookies and she was like "I do this all the time. baking is a hobby of mine." it would have been one thing, but she was…

She did a Vogue spread during their marriage that featured pastel colored sheep, but the thing that struck me was that it mentioned how when the journalist arrived, Madonna was trying to bake cookies, and was pretty stressed about it. I remember thinking it really weird, because you know Madonna's not the type to try…

I am a former fattie. I had a good life before I lost weight, and do now as well. I don't make more money (tiny cost of living raises) than I did when fat. I don't have more sex than I did when fat. I had great friends when fat, and still have the great friends.

A-fucking-men.

I am horribly sorry that you were raped, and that you've been victimized even further by people who were supposed to have your back calling you a liar and making you feel like you were responsible for what happened to you.

The OP (who originally said Madonna was lying for attention) dismissed several of my comments re: how his/her argument is harmful. How it is a part of rape culture. My comments were not aggressive. I did not call him/her names. I wrote that saying someone loves attention = she's lying about having been raped is…

The victim shaming in the comments to this story were disgusting and should be embarrassing to us as a community. How a commenter can call themselves a feminist in one breath and then dismiss a woman's account of being raped in the next because she's a 'fame whore' are more telling to me about the hypocrisies in our…

My original comments to @gayghost and @sendmebacktohellagain were not, apparently, approved.

Yeah it's exactly the reason why she probably never discussed it. Because of people like this who immediately look at her professional behavior and say, "stop fucking lying. You weren't raped. This is just another way for us to pay attention to you."

I think the people claiming she's lying are doing it because they don't want to feel sympathy for a celebrity they don't like, which to me is terrible. If you hate her music, fair enough, but don't blame her for her own assault.

I have one thing to say about this whole fucking fiasco of an article and the reprehensible comments underneath it: fuck you. Fuck Jezebel, fuck the comments. In fact, fuck you Jezebel even more than the comments, I expect better of you than pulling the same sensationalist bullshit that every other celebrity gossip…

Loving the comments on this article. So great to see women who claim to be feminists or at least to care about women's rights calling Madonna a liar. They're taking about her Sex book, her stage performances, her persona, her attention seeking behaviour. I'm so glad that all that means she must be lying! She couldn't…

Thank you! I thought the first comment was just a troll and that the rest would be calling her/him out on their bullshit. WTF?? She's doing this for attention? Of course because only "certain" women should be believed when they say they were raped, right? Can someone remind me who those women are?

Agreed. The comments suggesting that are all sorts of fucked up.

Yes, this. For fuck's sake, sex workers get raped all the time. Wanting attention is not mutually exclusive to getting raped.

So, wait. Some of the comments here don't sit well with me.
