Whoa, that's the same lady? I've used those lightening creams for acne spots and then when I went in the sun I felt like I was cooking. Dunno how you could rub it all over yourself.

Yea, you're right, pearls.You're right. I don't take most of Clash too seriously, I just haven't gotten into it with someone from there. Took me by surprise.
I feel terrible. Really really terrible. I don't wanna stay if I'm not wanted and I know Flouncy hasn't just been there for a couple months.
Shit pearls, I didnt mean to piss anyone off. I really didnt.
You too Joan? I either see all the comments or no comments. It is frustrating. If you get a chance to read it I'd appreciate it, it kinda explains why I hold onto Jez even though it isn't what it once was.
Noted, Flouncy. But who have you decided to be? I don't know you and you don't know me. You call me a teenager with a cutesy caps lock act, but I have shared real thoughts and feelings on Clashtalk. If I had to tell you who I thought you were, I would say someone who feels the need to police others behavior. Someone…
My stars! Doesn't that just make for a sticky situation? How about you just try to ignore me a little harder? It's not that difficult. I'm not there all the time.
Well thanks for giving me all my clues Flouncy. I am so glad that you took it upon yourself to do so. How about if you find me inappropriate you just ignore me and hope that I embarrass myself royally all on my own, hmm? But so far I'm not entirely unwelcome on CLT, except by you.
I see quite a few shared replies that come up on Clash. I am not alone in doing this. I also don't see why it is so tacky. People read a forum, they want to participate in it, they share some of their replies in discussions and hope others will weigh in.
How am I being dramatic? I explained to you how I felt, just as you did. I didn't say you had to appreciate my shared replies, or interact with me in any way at all. You came here and told me I am not welcome to share my replies on Clashtalk, I am telling you that your welcome doesnt determine my behavior. You don't…
Why? What have I done to you Flouncy? I was a bit stirred up when I shared the comments sure, so I didn't consider that not everyone would appreciate them. But from what I have seen Clashtalk isnt a place where people participate in things unwillingly. If you don't want to read or comment on something you don't have…
Ok, I'm sorry then that you don't find it interesting. You don't have to and I dont think everyone on a forum has to find every little thing other commenters do is interesting.
I dont continually link to my comments Flouncy. This was something I felt was interesting and important so I linked it.
Dunno if you're interested Joan, but I wrote a little bit about Jezebel and how I used to feel about it. Here (link might go to a comment on it by accident, but it goes to what I wrote):
It just doesn't fit the site that I connected with back then. If they wanted to embarrass Dunham, then they could wait until she opened her mouth on a day her pr people weren't around and said one of the more damnable thoughts we all know she has in her head. Jezebel used to be a place of body positivity for women.…
I wouldn't argue that Lena Dunham's politics are off, but her view of feminism is well known to be one from a privileged white woman. Why do they need to buy some pictures to get that point across further?
You are so welcome. You said everything I wish I could have said, but better. I wrote about my early experience with Jezebel and posted it to Groupthink if you're interested. Our experiences might be very similar. :)
Never said Jezebel wasn't a gossip site, pearls. But I remember it used to be one that didn't have to rely on picking apart a female celeb's image, it always criticized Star magazine and the like for doing that. This is some kind of mutation of what they did years ago showing that unretouched image of Faith Hill.
I have already commented but I am sharing comments and writing again because this needs to be taken notice of. I feel a connection to the op and every word written resonates with me.
This, so much this. I also started reading Jezebel as a teenager and the difference between the website I loved and read religiously years ago and its present form are vast. Former writers and commenters never would have allowed for such hateful language about women and their bodies. I remember days when it wasn't…
