Please tell me why a feminist webpage is PEARL CLUTCHING over rapists? We have so many more important issues to deal with.

Sorry. I’ll start caring about rapists when they start caring about victims.
First, the FBI deals only with federal cases unless their appearance is requested by other government bodies. Second, I’m not simply watching the trials from the gallery, I am involved in ALL of the evidentiary hearings, so I know exactly what other evidence is there that the jury does not hear. No prior rape charges…
2 to 8 percent. also, does that number include only cases tried and acquitted? I personally have sat in many rape trials. More than half are acquittals of very, very, very guilty and scary men. See, the jury doesn’t get to know about prior accusations of rape. I don’t believe there are 2 to 8% of false rape claims. I…
I can take potshots at people AND be confident. The two are not mutually exclusive. We’ve exhausted your decision that I have feigned confidence. You are welcome to your opinion. Thank you for sharing it. My confidence is not reliant on your approval.
Do you always have to have the last word? I said I was confident. Why do you have a problem with that?
MEN WHO WATCH commercials that involved the mild objectification of women prior to interviewing male and female job interviewees rate women with the same skill set and resume as less hireable, worthy of less pay, and less promotable than men who watch commercials without objectification of women before the same…
Actually, arrogance or what I would call “confidence in one’s self” often takes people very far in life. It’s insecurity that slows people down. I’m unapologetic for being confident.
It’s important for women to recognize the deeply rooted reasons they wear makeup. IF WOMEN LOVED WEARING MAKEUP SO MUCH, they would wear it all of the time at home, when nobody is around and won’t be coming over. The fact is if we’re home alone and aren’t seeing anyone, we prefer to be makeup free. That’s a test of…
It’s about rejecting our society’s belief (and our own beliefs) that we are objects, rather than subjects in the story of life. Makeup wearing is deeply rooted in the need for male approval and female approval resulting from the male gaze. We self-objectify. Here’s the proof: Go to a fancy party or a wedding without…
I do know what motivates other people for the most part and if women deeply think about why they are happy “when they look pretty in their makeup” they will understand it is culture driven through the male gaze. I’m also a psychologist, so I know a tiny bit about what drives people.
Thank you! The more makeup a woman wears, the more insecure. People who are confident don’t need to wear makeup for the approval of others. I sure wish women would stop playing the AM I THE PRETTIEST GAME??? It’s a game all women lose and men win.
I think the heavy makeup relates to porn culture, where this makeup is normative. Also, makeup is oppression, whether makeup lovers want to admit it or not.
SEXISM. Men leave their children home perpetually and don’t get father-shamed for it. TIRED of this b.s.
She’s been in the business since the 1970s. She’s changed her style forever. She is a female icon and all young women can do is mock her. I think that’s sad. One day you will be old and mocked too. You’ll wish others would see older women as people worthy of respect, but you won’t get it. Nothing will change until…
It’s sad to me that young women don’t treat Madonna with the respect she has earned. Part of misogyny is dismissing older women as jokes. You wouldn’t do this to the Rolling Stones or the Beatles and she’s not only had as many hits as they have, but she is STILL creating hit records - they are not! - and filling…

I TIRE OF JEZEBEL MOCKING MADONNA. Part of supporting misogyny is the belief that old women are stupid, useless, “trying to be cool,” should be “putting it away” or dressing and acting a certain way. Mocking older women is what keeps age shaming and the perpetual fear of aging in place. It puts all women in a mental…
WHATEVER. Hillary didn’t rape anyone.
