So, I went to the store to get a cheesecake a little while ago, because I reeeeeeally wanted some cheesecake. It's not for anything special, I don't really deserve any cake, but I have never let that stop me from eating cake, or anything really; I just wanted cake is all. So I'm at the store, poking around in the…

Whoooooosshhhhh.

Where do you get that suggestion?
The point is that these are things people are looking up with alarming frequency, and is an indication of popular thought.

This campaign is intended to highlight the attitudes toward women in society. Not to advocate for the banning of search terms. I'm not sure if you've intentionally missed the point and are just trolling or what.

She is suggesting people take a look at contemporary examples of sexist attitudes so they can drop the "sexism is a thing of the past!" bullshit.

Where on earth do you get that from out of the above text? WTF?

it's not about 'allowing' it. It's that these are the things people are interested in with regards to women and how that's a commentary on society. It's not about "this should be illegal" it's about "sexism is still a problem, here's an example."

You missed the point. Try again.

tlc was never "classy" but "hit me" was def not their song to sing

RE: Gaga's letter from Instagram: it's sort of nice to see a social media site that cares about its users. Much better than the stories you hear about Facebook users alerting the company that there are groups promoting rape and Facebook saying "meh" in response.

Gotta say, I'm really on board with the email that Instagram sent to Lady Gaga. I haven't seen her Instagrams, but it strikes me as a really positive thing to do for users who might need a lifeline.

Yeah, she could have just said 'it's OK guys (monsters?) they're just song lyrics' or something. She may not have realized at the time, but It's pretty obvious that showing handwritten notes with the words 'I love you, I'm sorry' in them can cause people to worry, or trigger people with experience of suicide attempts.

I agree. I think Instagram may have implemented a feature where if enough people express concern or 'report' their concern, Instagram will automatically send you a 'warning call'. I think it's partly to cover their ass legally, but I think it's a good idea, nonetheless. Sometimes all people in (or in the beginning of)…

All of this happens in cities true. HOWEVER, the massive coverup and outright unchecked ridicule of a family (ending potentially in arson) because of the daughter being raped by one of the small town's golden boys IS indicative of a small town mindset. That shit would never happen in a city where the media, the…

Of course rape and victim-blaming happen in cities, but I don't think you'll get the kind of cover-up we're seeing here anywhere but a small town. In the KC Star article and elsewhere, there's a strong implication that the Colemans were victimized because they were outsiders, because they weren't connected to any of…

I have to say I'm surprised at the number of trolls who've crawled onto this post to vomit their "IT WORKED FOR A DACHSUND THEREFORE FAT PEOPLE ARE LAZY" rhetoric. Do they not realise that dogs are just slightly different to humans, or does their shortsighted self-absorption prevent that?

ugh i thought this site was BODY POSITIVE quit shaming

It depends on their arrangement. I was married and having a whole relationship with someone else, but my (first) husband knew all about it...we stayed married for a long time because he was a totally stand-up guy and said, "I married you, I care about you, and until you make arrangements for other insurance we can…
