“but I kind of felt like they were making fun of me as a woman during some parts.”

It’s great that there is some exploration of drag/sexism in the interview. It’s something that I’ve always struggled with as a feminist. On the one hand, when I was in high school and working as a youth activist for LGBTQ causes, having a drag show was a very liberating experience for a lot of the fellow students I…

That tile is ugly as hell, but I am still super jealous that she has a dad who views his children as investments, rather than as ungrateful demons/a long-game plot by their mother to embarass him by producing individuals that aren’t also him.

100% of my husband thinks that he does half of the household chores. (He thinks there are maybe 3 or 4 things that need to be done around the house and he does at least half of those things.)

Pastor Kioko added: “But we noticed the man was determined to leave. So it was agreed that they live in peace in their separate homes

I am of two minds on this... the customer can F*@ck Off is the European service model, which when dealing with awful customers, might not be a bad thing. However when your just an average lady on vacation and expect someone to whom you’re paying money to give average service - it get’s really old, really fast.

“It’s not a glass ceiling, it’s a thick layer of men.” I can’t remember who said it though....

“We have a bunch of talented, creative females, but they reach a certain point in their careers ...”

To be honest, my take is this: the vast, vast majority of Bernie supporters (including me) will vote for Hillary in November. The current polling predicts more Bernie people will vote for Hillary than ‘08 Hillary people voted for Obama, so we are talking a lot about a relatively small percentage of voters.

Every political party is corrupt. Why do you think there’s something special about the Dems?

In Hillary’s convention speech, she said she was adopting Sander’s college plan, and would partner with him to make it happen. I know these promises don’t mean anything until they are delivered, but that was her one point where she spoke about taking one of Sander’s policies. I could not afford to go to college, and I…

Honey, she may be so excited about the baby that she doesn’t notice how zombified you are. Or, she may have had lots of women fussing over her and her baby after she delivered, and loved it, and, as a result, assumes that you, do, too. Just tell her, gently and sweetly, that while you appreciate her fussing over you…

Girl, get thee to Chicago. I totally get it being scary to upend your life—and at 28, you feel like you should have this all sorted by now (I’m not much older than you, so I’m with you on your late 20s being hard!)—but you owe it to yourself to go for this opportunity. He doesn’t have to move for your job, but it…

Sometimes having distance from an issue also brings a healthy perspective into play. As an American I agree with your observations and feel your viewpoints are right on target. Some of the Bernie supporters strike me as incredibly immature, sorry. Not trying to be cruel, but come on. Whatever duplicity or manipulation…

Take the job. You need to focus on yourself and your future.

Let’s be honest, HRC had the popular vote going into the DNC.

I’m so pissed that I have to comment again.

Right. The woman was killed. Not the man. Women get caught up in the toxicity of patriarchy for complex reasons, mostly having to do with surviving by the skin of their teeth. Show me a matriarchal culture where women are buried in holes up to their necks then stoned to death...

Oh FFS. You already got people whining at you. There is an epidemic of violence against women either directly or indirectly caused by men, but we can’t even call attention to that cause it might hurt some innocent man’s feelings. Their feelings > our lives, and I’m done with that.

Dude, I don’t think you get to police the response of the oppressed to their ongoing oppression, ESPECIALLY as an ally.
Dialogue? Sure.
Empathise? Yeah babe.
Police/gaslight? Nah mate.
