There are three cardinal rules of doing well on Drag Race:

You don’t “sound insensitive.” What you do sound like is you’re ignoring my (and millions of other womens’) personal lived experiences so you can play a game of “men have it WORSE!” We all, women and men alike, go through this shit. It’s not a zero-sum game.

Well, yeah. As a woman (a woman who couldn’t get laid for a whole decade) I can’t think of anything less appealing than some dude I don’t know and have never spoken to asking me to go to the back of his car for oral.

Yep. I was constantly romantically rejected in high school and in college. People lost money when I got married because they had all bet on my never finding anyone, that’s how bad I was at getting dates. But I never blamed men or screamed about how they owed me attention and sex. I just blamed myself for being born…

Thank you for writing this. Reading it made me feel less alone.

During that phase of your life, did you ever think there were women out there who were just like you - unsuccessful with the opposite sex, feeling ugly and unloved, completely unable to date or have sex? I ask because these guys don’t ever seem to realize that women like them exist.

$10 on this guy’s dad being a “owning a gun is a god-given RIGHT!” kind of guy. 

Shit like this makes me so glad I don’t have kids.

It never happens the other way. That’s why people are finally telling the NYT to knock it off with the “let’s understand Trump voters!” pieces. I have never seen a piece in any conservative outlet that examines why liberals were so upset after Trump’s election. I saw a ton of “GET OVER IT, CUCKS!” pieces, but never a…

Q1: Why are you seeking an abortion?

I don’t know why more of these guys don’t go in for open relationships. If you can’t be monogamous, fine. But that would require open communication and honesty (plus the primary girlfriend getting some on the side as well.)

I doubt Ryan has any involvement in criminal activities, but I bet he knows about some GOP nonsense and he also knows that once whatever the FBI has on Cohen comes to light people are going to be making a lot more noise about impeaching 45. Instead of doing what he’s been doing and ignoring it, he’s probably retiring…

Give him the finger for me next time you see him.

The youngest millennials were born in 1996. Common core was introduced in 2009.

100%. I truly believe this is the root of all MRA bullshit—they cannot conceive that every single woman walking around on this planet has her own interior life, her own hopes and dreams, and is the hero of her own story. It’s the same thing that causes men & boys to call women “fake geek girls” or “fake gamer girls”…

I completely forgot about these!! (Holy shit these are creepy)

I grew up in Colorado. Any time those clouds went green it would hail like crazy.

I went to see a movie in Buffalo, New York in a theater with seats like that. You know, rich, wealthy Buffalo, New York.

That’s not how #MeToo has been framed, though.

You’re right that it’s not about attractiveness. But when you’ve never had what everyone tells you is a universal experience for all women, you look for reasons as to how and why.
