People are fuckin weird

Lead roles going to black women is progress. I think this is a step towards better representation than "the sassy best friend" or "wise old auntie" role so many black women are forced to choose from. Of all speaking characters (not even main characters) in movies last year, only 30% were women, and only 8.1% were…

Awesome. I'm surprised and glad they cast a woman of color! That's rad

I just read Prozac Nation, and I've struggled with depression, but not like described in the book—never enough that I was so desperate and in so much pain to want to end my life. It takes so much from a person to commit suicide, and I fully realize that now. I'm so sorry that this talented woman didn't get the help…

Warning to girls (pale girls?) who take Shailene's advice: you WILL get freckles on your clit. - ex-nude sunbather LOL

Right, I think the main similarity is that men's attitudes towards women are dangerous in both countries, and that it's just expressed differently in what typical dress is the norm for women. They're both intertwined with the fact that men see women as sexual objects—ones they are entitled to see or ones that they…

Ooh I can see Sarah Paulson as a tightrope walker, and Kathy Bates as a bearded lady, and Evan Peters as a clown, and Emma Roberts as a girl that gets cut in half, and Angela Bassett as a fire breather.....

My parents told me about death when I was really little, too, and I remember crying about it one night when I was five, but it didn't like, traumatize me in the long run. It mostly just made me feel like a snobby asshole in preschool because no one else knew the truth (about death OR Santa Claus). One time when this…

This is so surreal.....I mean I know we're a youth-obsessed society but this just gives me like, creepy dystopian vibes

I wasn't making an argument for "the basis of selfie popularity"......and neither was the article, actuallly......LOL

Hahaha this reminds me of a boy in middle school who asked a bunch of us girls "When you put in...you know....the tampon......does it feel good?" lmao

Damn girl you held in there.....i woulda just slapped that geek with my purse LOL

"ALL men?? Don't you mean s-"

Alright. Some women might not believe their friends and family when they are given affirmation by their loved ones. I assume you mean that this is for compliments about their appearance, though. Some individuals may accept compliments on their qualities like kindness and humor, but think that they are being "lied to"…

I wish that we could all get rid of the pressure to not ever have wrinkles! Or look your age! It's so toxic that there is pressure for women to look young all the time.

I don't think so! It's normal to want when you have something about you that doesn't conform to the beauty standards shoved down our throats all the time.

Well, the thing with "society," a word we all use but that's really pretty broad, is that it encompasses everyone and everything. It's the reason we eat with utensils instead of our hands, drive on the right side of the road, get married, pay for things instead of stealing them. I would say American society influences…

I think the "rise of the selfie" has contributed to this plastic surgery boom, but that it only exacerbates a trend that has long been pushed by other forces. Women and girls seek plastic surgery because of the sexist representations of women in American media, everyday instances where men feel entitled to women's…
