Can you give some examples? Most feminist stuff I’ve read focuses on women’s fear of retaliation rather than socialisation.

I agree that it was (probably) an attempted joke. It’s main interest is in showing us the inner workings of the GOP. How many Democrats made jokes about Obama being in the pay of a foreign power? And would they have been shut down like that?

So her lawyers tried to argue that the woman was not identifiable...after she’d been identified? What??

I’m not seeing where she tried to force him off the road. The article states that she followed the car, and banged on the windows when it stopped.

My first thought. Most of them go for murder-suicide. Although he showed absolute disregard for anyone else’s safety - he could have set the whole damn club ablaze. Others were injured, and it was good luck rather than good planning that no one else died. What a piece of shit.

At least you’ve stopped pretending it’s the fault of black people that they’re disproportionately shot by police.

APPLAUSE!

“This diagnosis is a sentence of its own.”

The sentence you quoted doesn’t contain any gender-neutral pronouns. It’s just an awkward sentence.

Sounds like a cause the Pro-life and All Lives Matter folk should be onto in a flash!

They’re not even well done tattoos. That shit looks like someone’s scribbled on his face in biro while he’s passed out drunk. His drunken crony with the tattoo machine from Ebay couldn’t even manage a symmetrical Swastika?? What a mess.

The 1% is Maori and Pacific Island people, where facial tattoos are culturally important. But yeah, Nazi facial tattoos are unquestionably a dubious life choice.

As an Australian, I find the American patchwork of local, city and state police forces to be incomprehensible. In Western Australia we have ONE police force, paid for by the State government. Every officer in the state is trained and paid under the same system, every police district is staffed by a central office. …

Quick reminder that people can wear what they want and don’t deserve to be shamed or sexualised for it.

Well, it is what he’s best known for...

You’re perfectly right, and no one should assume anyone is trans and it shouldn’t matter anyway. However, many people - especially those liable to belt women on the head with metal objects in the street - wouldn’t make that distinction. Modify my statement to the attacker may have assumed she was trans.

Discovered by accident when doing Halloween makeup...Dervian face paint makes the best eye-liner I’ve ever used. Team with a paint brush as fine or thick as you like for the effect you want. It’s water resistant but comes off with either soap and water, or makeup remover. And it’s absurdly cheap. It’s non-toxic…

Exactly. I’m not a fan of latex or baby doll dresses, but she looks fabulous.

I love Dove products but damn, I hate their bloody advertising. Look at us! We use not-white models!! We use models with a BMI in double figures! HOW SUBVERSIVE AND EDGY ARE WE even though all our models still fit into Western ideals of beauty (buy our shit).

Some trans people “pass” - that is, they look so much like a cis man or woman that people can’t tell they’re trans by looking at them (think Laverne Cox). Others can’t, or don’t want to, pass. Older trans women in particular may not pass, because they went through puberty and have stereotypically male features such…
