I feel like Buzzfeed has genuinely gotten really good in the last year or so! To the point where I wouldn’t even feel the need to through in that ‘I know’, which I absolutely would’ve done a few years back. Hats off to more good journalism!

Surely overalls are pretty good rape prevention, by that fucked-up victim-blaming logic?!? Given that with a skirt or dress, there’s no thick denim straps to saw through at all?

I think Tyler the Creator is quite brilliant; I always interpret his most violent lyrics as a caricature, as a magnifying glass held over the sexism and violence in society. Like the logical conclusion of the violent lyrics of Eminem and other who threw around rape threats like they were just turns of phrase. Tyler…

People are pointing out here that giving kids a bit of alcohol isn’t a foolproof method of giving them a healthy relationship with alcohol. In my case, my parents, knowing the history of alcoholism in their genes, treated alcohol VERY much as the forbidden fruit, and wouldn’t even give me a sip of wine at birthdays,…

Thank you for answering! No one else seemed to see my question, haha. I live in London but for the purposes of the question, I could be travelling out into the countryside where things are cheaper, too.

That was my thought- why exactly was he doing this? Teens do dumb things for sex, for money, or for social appeal- I don’t think this would help him in any of those areas.

It’s called RiRi, not Eleganza. Eleganza is a word I know from Ru Paul’s Drag Race that refers to a fabulous, glamorous look, which certainly applies to Rih’s oufit here.

ASOS is WONDERFUL, especially the ASOS brand stuff. Really imaginative and on-trend stuff that fits perfectly, at least for me, with my odd figure (narrow shoulders, big bust, short torso, bit of tummy, narrow hips, long legs). I often order 3 dresses with the promise to ‘only keep the best one’ and...yeah I always…

Honest, non-snarky question here. I’ve only just become a legal drinker by U.S. standards, so I’m not looking to walk down the aisle aaaany time soon. However, I’ve been to some older friends’ and relatives’ weddings recently, and I just keep thinking...is it possible to do it so much fucking cheaper? Not is it…

But what if you ate a salade nicoise with a piece of bread on the side? Would that be any different? Is it all about the geographical placement of the salad in relation to the bread? VIVE LA SALADE

YES. In Nice they also serve it as a Pan Bagnat- a hunk of bread, stuffed with salade nicoise, ‘bathed’ in the dressing (thus the name). It’s messy and delicious and so, so good.

I was a depressingly mature and forward-thinking 11-year-old who just did myname@yahoo.com. I’m always upset because I feel it proves I’ve been a 60-year-old woman since about the age of 6 :-(

But does anyone really, truly not think you’re at risk (more of mugging, I’d say, than rape) if you walk around drunk and naked at 3 am? It’s common sense. That information is out there and pretty easy to figure out even if your parents never tell you. It’s one thing as a parent to advise your kids (of both genders)…

I used to know a guy like that, always going from gf to gf. Honestly, it was because he was too self-involved to really care who he was dating. He needed someone to help battle his insecurities, boost his ego (they were always very pretty girls), and provide easy regular sex. When those are your only criteria, it’s…

I too wondered about her rent rising- was it because there was such a shortage of homes? Surely that’s straight-up price gouging. Awful.

But that would mean the weather allowing for exposed skin in Scotland in mid-to-late September, an occurrence which I’ve heard happens only once every 300 years.

I don’t have any problem with criticizing anyone’s fashion, male or female. I’m not comfortable with calling a teenager, who is just barely a legal adult and has grown up in the country’s most visibly exploitative family, ratchet. It’s a pretty gross insult with tinges of slut-shaming and racism to it. I’m no fan of…

I’m tearing up as I read these comments. You mean I’m not the only one with random old crap, dirt, pebbles, and probably Ebola hiding in the bottom of my purse?!

Feminism: all about shaming women for their choices! Oh. Wait.

I submitted a makeup diary in March as well that never got used. I pitched it first and got an enthusiastic response, then wrote the entire 2000-word thing and never heard back.
