A few aspects of the excerpt you quoted reads as incredibly self-righteous and self-congratulatory to me...

...that's not actually the case.

Unless your friend with the ruler-shaped naturally skinny body is a Hollywood starlet, she's probably not being referred to here, as the context seems to be the norm/expectations in Hollywood.

I found this a good sum up of some of things I see on tumblr (albeit the title says twitter) but others may disagree - your mileage may vary:

Well, I think it's certainly true that part of the appeal of 'JLaw' is that, despite being a Hollywood starlet, she seems very down-to-earth. And not down-to-earth in the 'I'm so humble, I'd like to thank my Mom and Dad and God' kind of way, but in a vicariously embarrassing, socially awkward, blurting,

I've seen a few of those 'yourfaveisproblematic' things linked for different people now, and they've all seemed like they were reaching.

Yeah it's absolutely true. Only really changed to be a girls colour in the 1940s.

Huh. Can relate to this little kid a lot. I was the same at her age (short hair, opted for trousers, friends with a lot of boys) and yeah, some kids would ask if I was a boy or a girl. One teacher brought my mother into school for a talk, and he told her that he was worried I was confused and not able to understand

"Scarlett Johansson would like you to please STOP calling her "ScarJo" because ScarJo is a nickname and nicknames are for friends and Scarlett Johansson is NO FRIEND OF YOURS. "

baps and fur-burger?

Yeah, I used it as a teenager (when it was called Imac or something) and it stank. Properly foul.

Not if it's two a way thing...

I don't. I have no problems with my partners back hair at all. I don't find it unattractive.

"Entitled to stop"?

Jesus Christ /o\

boobs and poon?

It looks too much of a modern style - neat and gelled.

...Yup. Policy - encouraged to do it and penalized if they don't meet targets. Not that it's an excuse. But the issue is centred much higher up than the average bobby on the beat.

I don't think that's what it means here (I think it's just saying "it's suspected that five women were attacked, but could be more in actuality" rather than suspecting the women of anything) but I agree the alternative vampirewithoutsparkles suggested is better - if anything it flows better as a sentence and is less

Re: femininity and masculinity...(the bit you quoted and disagreed with, as you thought it sounded like 'men's rights')
