go have some therapy. Seriously. ASAP

Perhaps you could stop projecting your insecurities onto French women who-gasp!- don’t all dress in Chanel like you’ve somehow been led to believe. Just an idea.

catherine deneuve doesn’t speak for France or feminism. 100 French women don’t represent France. Crazy concept I know. https://www.newstatesman.com/politics/feminism/2018/01/catherine-deneuve-doesn-t-speak-france-or-feminism

Thirty French feminist activists have published a letter on francetvinfo.fr to counter the misogynistic one signed (among others) by Catherine Deneuve. Is Jezebel going to report on it? I’m not holding my breath: it wouldn’t fit their agenda and the one of its readers who love to hate on French people too much. It’s…

Women who have internalized misogyny exists everywhere. Like in your delightful country for instance where a large number of women voted for Trump who bragged about sexually harassing women. But sure, it’s the French who have a shitty attitude towards sexual harassment. France is no feminist paradise but feminist…

Well judging by this thread here everyone is totes fine with casting random “brown” people to play Arab extras. Even though Indians look nothing like Arabs. But I guess to Americans they do. Super weird.

no they don’t get called out as shit. Seriously in what world do you live in? Off the top of my head: Jennifer Lawrence (American) in her upcoming movie is playing a Russian ballerina, Jessica Chastain (American) played a Polish hero in the Zookeeper’s wife, Rooney Mara (American) played a Swedish hacker (in…

lol you made the WORST possible comparison because actually Russian/French/German parts are NOT played by actual Russian/French/German actors but by American or British actors doing a terrible accent and hoping for an Oscar (and sadly often getting one).

Pakistanis or Indians are not Arabs. But since you are using the “brown people” term then I guess you don’t care. Hey they should also cast Japanese! Why not? They’re not white, right? It doesn’t make sense as this story is set in an Arab country? well who cares, right?

Aladin is supposed to take place (at least in Disney’s version) in an Arab country (Bagdad? so Iraq). Pakistanis are not even remotely Arabs. I find it funny that eveyone is outraged! but somehow as long as the production casts non-white actors (even if these actors are CLEARLY not Arabs) then it’s all cool. Because…

Why American actors insist on getting accents for characters that are supposed to be foreign (yet for some reason speak English) is beyond me. She’s not speaking Russian so we already have to suspend disbelief, why add an accent? It’s dumb and offensive.

Are you surprised by these comments? because I’m not. It’s always the same stuff: “Europeans are racist assholes because they don’t want to open their borders to everybody. Plus colonization happened therefore they must atone. Besides immigration has always a positive outcome”. It’s like what? Do these people een know…

The situation in the US vs Europe is very different. Americans don’t seem to realize that in a lot of European countries unemployment is around 10% on average (that means it’s even higher in some countries/regions). Europe can’t just open its borders to anybody who wants to come in, especially if they’re economic…

Yep. great songwriter, awful human being

Yeah basically. Italy is not exactly a vegan-friendly country. Thank god for that: veganism and vegans are exhausting.

Churchill War Rooms are amazing but so expensive! I did it once and it was great but I won’t do it again

And the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam is 17,5 euros (21 dollars) which is fucking crazy. I mean it’s worth it. But still super expensive.

Thank you. Since when is it edgy to paint a penis? They’re fucking everywhere. Personally I would not like to look out the window and see YET another fucking penis.

Yeah how dare Jessica Chastain not be perfect!

Seriously. Expecting actresses to turn down a magazine cover because there are only white women on it is completely unrealistic. Following this logic, men should also refuse promotions because of the glass ceiling. We all know it’s never going to happen, let’s be real here. Nobody would jeopardize their career like…
