You mean just like the owners and employees of the businesses that were destroyed by these “peaceful protests”?

Eh Like protestors wouldn’t have a perfectly good reason to lie about that as well.

We get it, you have daddy issues.

I may be out of touch here but I thought bull dyke was one of those phrases that was only a slur when used as a slur?

Yet another column on Jezebel ramming ‘sex work is OK’ down our throats. It’s not OK. I pity all the little third wavers endlessly trotting out their favourite word, “empowerment,” leading themselves to the patriarchal slaughter with painted smiles on their faces. And the rest of us have to put up with the crap world…

It is not their priority to deescalate. The priority is to force submission.

“I averted the eyes of the waiter as he set my plate of eggs down in front of me.”

Congrats. A guy is entering a marriage he doesn’t want because you let your baggage trip you up. Ironically, you are more likely to lose him now than before if he ever resents you for it. I also don’t have a lot of faith in your vision for this relationship.

I recall that there were plenty of people who said maybe we should pump the brakes on this story since parts of it aren’t adding up. Granted, those people were tarred and feathered on Jezebel and Gawker, but they certainly existed. One particular person was roundly ridiculed for daring to question the story and…

you shoulda heard merlan when she defended the article.

I hope they sue your stupid ass next. How are you still employed?

Even people with journalism degrees from Columbia.

You lost me at ‘Um’.

If this was aimed at say Melissa McCarthy or Leslie Jones, Jezebel would be in stage three meltdown right now.

I think this is absolutely about his weight. I don’t even understand how that could not be the case.

If someone made a similar joke at Melissa McCarthy’s expense this place would be up in arms.

This wasn’t a joke about power dynamics. This was an insult to his appearance, and he didn’t appear to have done anything to deserve it. This isn’t some sort of feminist stand she’s taking. This is just a mean-spirited “joke” at the expense of someone who was just trying to do his job. It’s inappropriate in either…

I get the idea that punching up is better than punching down. However, you’re really saying it’s okay to fat shame a dude, who is probably very insecure about his weight, by telling him he completely undesirable just because women get that kind of thing much more than men? That seems bizarre.

Maybe, but I don’t think it’s particularly appropriate to directly insult the appearance of anyone who is just trying to promote their movie. It’s shitty either way, and he did nothing to deserve it.

And in my mind, the only way Ashly can be redeemed is by turning the goddamn bunk bed into a giant bong.
