Well, yeah. That is why I have problems with third wave feminism specifically. A culture has been created that makes people so terrified of being labelled anything less than "perfect progressive" that they don't even QUESTION or think critically about anything anymore.

I get the point, but I feel like this comic is unfortunately quite simplistic and I fear it makes feminists afraid to question anything they see that they think is sexist or oppressive.

I tried it on and it was SO short that it felt like a practical joke. Granted, I am pretty tall, but never mind not being to bend over - I wouldn't have been able to WALK without flashing everyone.

One time my older brother was slowly pulling into the driveway in his truck, and I was standing outside. As soon as he saw me he leaned out the window and flicked me off,staring at me, while still pulling into the driveway. Then he crashed into my dad's barbecue grill, and a bunch of other junk that was there. It was

I can't believe I am about to ask this, but does weed really help with that? I suffer from migraines and nothing works........should I start prescribing myself marijuana?

I find it disgusting that cops were so adamant about fucking hookers that they actually rallied together to stop the exemption. I am happy to hear that this nonsense won't continue.

No, because pretending things don't exist and living in ignorance is almost as bad as celebrating it. We can look at Gone With the Wind as a good example of Hollywood's attitude toward race in the early twentieth century.

When tumblr ventures outside the house.

Why is pop music so terrible these days? And I don't mean "lol mainstream music is soooo lame obscure bands forever," because I really do think popular music can be catchy as hell and really fun. I mean that's why there are hit singles. But I feel like all the new pop music being churned out these days is genuinely

Eh, yes, but a lot of sub-genres implement performance art, either mild or intense, into their stage presence. I saw a punk band a few months ago, for example, with a singer who walked around the room while singing and interacting with audience members. It wasn't a big deal but it was different from the standard "stay

I see a lot of comments pointing out the sabbatical and number of preps being the reason they rescinded the offer, but I kind of think it may have had a lot to do with her start date. Now, I am not in academia so I don't know how this works, but I'm assuming that if they're hiring now, then that means they need

"Women, especially queer women, are highly sensitive, highly emotional beings"

Have you discussed Tumblr on Jezebel before? Because I'm about to completely agree with you and I feel like we've done this already, haha.

Exactly. I feel like a lot of feminists have taken "sex-positivity" so far that they end up shaming those who DON'T have a lot of sex. And it goes even beyond virginity. I know so many "feminists" who unintentionally shame or embarrass monogamous women simply for not having "enough" sex with "enough" partners.

Exactly. I've also noticed that some people say "I'm sorry" before saying something actually quite cruel, haha. Its kind of like when people say "no offense" before saying something VERY offensive. Just be upfront!

Sylph's comment takes the cake for possibly being one of the dumbest and most hilarious things I've read on Jezebel in a WHILE.

This is not the point of the article, but lately I hear every woman preface a complaint with "I'm sorry." My good friend has been doing this a lot for the past few months. I'm going to make a better effort to not say "I'm sorry" before I'm about to be critical.

What the fuck university do you go to that has professors who say that? That is completely out of line, limiting, and separatist. I think its wonderful if a white person majors in something like African-American studies, because courses like that will FOR SURE open their eyes and teach them more than they'd learn

Sylph said students who major in it though. Not students just taking one class for an elective.

"Weep not for the street urchin who had to claw her way to the top" - everything you're saying is actually completely proving that she sort of DID have to claw her way to the top. Kaling knew that to make it anywhere in the industry, she needed to have connections. So she built those connections on her own. That isn't
