Why does it matter is Reeva Steenkamp slept with her boyfriend? I don't understand why her mom would offer up this info. He still didn't have a right to shoot her.
I... You don't get it. You don't get what people are talking about when they are discussing representation in media.
There's a difference between showing people's faults and having them act in a completely unrealistic and demeaning way.
From the very first clip I saw of this show, I was completely turned off. Where it is supposed to be funny, I found it crude and disheartening. It reinforces the ideas that women are not worthy of judgeship. I'm glad that a chapter of the FAWL are taking a stand.
Seriously- her problem is that she doesn't like any decisions he makes, and steamrolls them. That doesn't make her masculine, or him feminine.
Honestly, no, I don't have an issue with people being nude in public, or doing something like masturbating in a semi private place like their own car. Most people who are actually arrested and charged for "lewdness", and I think the only ones that should be, are those that target other people, exposing themselves to…
She's also clearly self-identified as a feminist and constantly talks about the glories of female friendship. But there's this constant media message to judge and dislike her, for a variety of "reasons": she writes about ex-boyfriends! (yeah, male writers never do that); she's rich! (yeah, unlike ... all the other…
I don't think Monica deserved to be vilified, the media was particularly cruel to her.
"Homewrecker" - - how very 1950s of you. Sure, getting involved with a married man is a horrible decision, but it takes two to tango.
This dude's success is the most mysterious phenomenon ever. What we have here is a predatory creep who even looks like a cartoon stereotype of a predatory creep and is a terrible photographer to boot. Why does the fashion world love him? I can only imagine it's some kind of uber-hipsterism, like pretending to like…
Agreed. Whenever Terry's defenders (like the article's writer) defend his actions as "his art is wild! It's artful porn!" the difference between a porn set vs. a TR set is that in porn, the performers know they are going there to get naked and have sex on camera. There is no question about it.
Nothing makes me angrier than people being dismissive of others' experiences simply because they experienced it differently.
Sena Cech: "I was abused by Richardson when I was 19, while I was working in debt to my modeling agency that sent me to his casting, and I was quoted in the article. "
Just so the people defending him know, THESE are the types of models he targets. He doesn't go after financially secure models with a strong command of…
Yep, the university where I'll begin teaching (my first tenure-track position, yeah!) does not have maternity leave behind the limited federal mandate because male union members thought it was unfair for women to have an additional "vacation." Hahaha, like any mother ever has seen maternity leave as "vacation"! Also,…
One of the most enraging things about my work as a professor is the lip service administration pays to "academic freedom" and "freedom of inquiry." Questioning social establishment is perfectly in lecture and discussion, but the second students and faculty try to move it outside the classroom, all bets are off.
Women's colleges have huge rape problems too. That you haven't heard of them is likely due to systems in place not unlike what is written about in this article. No college is a safe haven from sexual assault, and if they act like that or seem that way, there's probably a lot they are hiding.
They value reputations and sports more than safety of their students....mostly female students. They simply don't fucking care for you as long as they can raid your pockets with ever increasing tuitions and loans. American college system is becoming a joke.
You're the reason these guys are able to exist and thrive. That attitude right there. It's why casting couches are par for the course for anyone aspiring into the arts. Because nobody gives a shit, and everyone is willing to blame the person without the power for being so powerless.
I disagree. Sweeping this under the rug and attempting to act like it's not a problem is just going to lead to more young women being victimized by this perv.
