Part of enjoying sex is unlearning years of shame you are taught to feel about your body and your genitals. I had read this piece one by a bisexual man who said when asked what's the major difference between sleeping with women and sleeping with men and other than the obvious he said that women constantly apologize…

There's a lot left out of that though, perhaps most predominantly the idea of social power. The same things can be said of monogamy, including now (people still marry in the West in order to escape bad circumstances which oftentimes can leave them dependent on their partner, and there is also still religious pressure…
You could also say that about marriage in monogamous societies up until the last century or so. Monogamous marriage was for centuries a property exchange that also led to the unhappiness and oppression of women. By this logic, why should we allow couples to get married?
Which is why you edited your piece, right? Don't worry, guys! She has a bit from Grace Dunham about how she doesn't feel it's abuse and there's a whole Tumblr now supporting Lena (like that's fucking news) so it's cool. Saying you ought to be embarrassed is the least of it. Great fucking job minimizing child abuse,…
So why should he take precedence among the avalanche of backlash against Dunham? If you search Twitter, most of the condemnation appears to be coming from women, feminists of color in particular.
Given everything she wrote about, how she worked to bribe her sister for affection and did many overtly manipulative things to gain that affection, I think it's very troublesome. She described HERSELF as predatory, yet so many are quick to insert the "that's not what she meant" explanation that I think is bullshit.…
How about you acknowledge that you made a mistake instead of being flippant towards commentators who are right?
Frankly you should be. In ignoring the actual content of the controversy you fail to add anything of value to the conversation. You'd have been better off simply ignoring the topic all together, but now that you've waded in it's pretty sad to see you do so disingenuously.
Everyone has different opinions. Being flippant about sexual abuse and leaving out giant chunks of relevant information IS embarrassing. Your snarky response is gross.
Except that you've preemptively dismissed her critics as 'small fedoras'. What purpose did that serve except to blunt and mute the negative reaction to her?
A home run? This article completely ignores multiple other examples of Dunham's disturbing behavior with her sister. Was it done on purpose or out of the author's total ignorance of the actual details of the story?
Holy shit. I thought it was only the pebble story. That is some very bizarre behavior and maybe a developmental psychologist could convince me it still within the range of normal but to not include it in a defense of Dunham is totally irresponsible.
Yes. Tolentino chose the least troubling of all the incidents Dunham describes and pretends that alone is the issue. A straw man.
AND, her sister Grace said, "Without getting into specifics," she said, "most of our fights have revolved around my feeling like Lena took her approach to her own personal life and made my personal life her property."
They want to defend Lena and the only way to do so is to omit.
Why are we acting like this is only about her touching her 1 year old sister's vagina when she was 7 and not also about emotionally coercing her sister into sleeping in her bed and then masturbating while she sleeps? And about paying her sister in candy to give her long kisses on the lips? And about paying her sister…
I didn't see any body shaming on here... there was no "his dick is uncut and that is GROSS" or "he has a below average penis length because he is not a real man" or anything like that. just different descriptions of different penises... without regard to whether one is better than the other. I really liked that almost…
Men won't be equal (on this issue) UNTIL cartoon porn like this is a real thing. The Princess porn (which is not to my taste), nevertheless shows the great variety of ways women can be sexually attractive ... the different hair colors, body styles, heavy or flat-chested, etc. An Alice in Wonderland or Little Mermaid…
You're offended by nudity? Really? You are offended by the simple idea of a person not wearing clothing over their completely natural bodies? But you went out of your way to come here and look at it anyway?
They have not "critiqued" them. Most of the princes were given average or shorter than average penises. When was the last time you saw princesses/fantasy women/heroines/mainstream female porn actresses with cellulite, droopy or uneven boobs, a jiggly belly or butt carrying a few extra pounds, or ungroomed pubes? This…
