YES! Feminism is literally about breaking down social norms. That is inherently uncomfortable and not easy to shoot into the mainstream. It means taking long, hard looks into the reason why we do things, and accepting that we might have to change our behavior, even when that is difficult. It means accepting that we…

Stay in your lane, Kim!

My extremely jaded and pessimistic heart truly believes young feminists (and hell, older ones too) that take up this mantle do it as sort of the feminist version of edge-lording. Like, i am SO feminist that only *I* understand how the Kardashians are feminist, the rest of y’all are just fuddy-duddies.

Oh, see I was going to say yeah, I think that’s this guy.

It annoys me, too. They are some of the most shallow, superficial, money-grubbing people to ever walk the face of the earth, and yet there is always some freshman writer willing to do a breathless “Is Kim’s Fake Ass Feminist?” piece about them.

Why is there such a cottage industry around “the Kardashians as feminist” think pieces? It’s weird, and gross, and patently untrue.

I’m glad someone posts this on every article about this jackass. Don’t let the nerd makeover fool anyone.

This is the guy who raped a 15-year-old and bragged out it to his friends, then his claimed repeated confessions didn’t count because he was just lying to impress them. He’s also the guy who was sent to jail after repeatedly violating his parole and then promptly released by the judge because he wasn’t enjoying the…

I am a survivor and I will always be a survivor. I will never get to know what my life would have been like had I not been raped. So, yeah, he can carry that for the rest of his life, just like she will carry what he did to her for the rest of her life.

The makeover they did on him gets me every time. I know it’s a standard tactic, but man. They thought it THROUGH, right down to forward-combing his hair.

no - that’s the asshole out west who was literally caught in the act of raping an unconscious woman behind a dumpster, and then got a six month sentence because the judge didn’t want to ruin his life.

Yes. It wasn’t enough to lure and then rape her. They really should have gone a lot further in damaging her credibility. What a stellar specimen of the human race.

I don’t watch the show, but I tried watching the first episode and just couldn’t get past how unlikable the characters were. That to me is separate from Lena Dunham as a person, who also gets on my nerves. But as far as the criticism of her show, I absolutely would agree that women are more easily criticized and held…

Oh give me a break. She is not a fucking victim, sorry.

It’s not about including everyone. The point is that she is exemplifying the outlook of the young white, rich, Brooklyn set that is pervading this city. The gentrifying horde.

Ehhh, that’s bullshit, sorry. Dunham created this “voice of a generation” show, and it’s really just Sex and the City redux. It’s nonsense, and while I’ve watched most of it, and it is funny sometimes, I really can’t stand most of the characters, especially Hannah. As a black native New Yorker, I find the shows…

“You’re not wrong, but I get supremely ticked when women/minority creators are held to a higher standard than white guys in entertainment. There’s this double standard where when women/minorities create something, they have to include everybody else who has been historically excluded too whereas white guys have…

I so agree. I used to like lawyer shows. Then I met my husband, who is one. And every time I’d watch L&O, CSI, NCIS — all the acronyms — he would provide a blow-by-blow commentary about how such crime detection is simply not possible (think “the electrified pickle”), complete with a lengthy and lawyerly explanation…

No you’re right, but the ways in which Lena Dunham messes up seem extra gross because she spends so much time doing “progressive” things. It makes her obliviousness a little bit more stark.

Jeff placed a person into a potentially dangerous situation because of a fucking game, and he claims it was because he was ignorant of transgender issues but is now educating himself. Fuck you, Jeff. The only reason to be misinformed about transgender issues in this our year of the lord April 2017 is because you…
