So it’s basically, “if I’m fucked, then you’re all going to be fucked with me”?

“it made me want to go around and apologize to every black person I see.”

For when you don’t get to see things labeled racist enough during your day-to-day at gawker.

The media shows Americans what they want to see/read. They aren’t the problem. Americans are.

I would consider auto play videos, and popups that make you wait 5 seconds before a page load are good examples of obnoxious.

if you guys ever adjust your ads to be less batshit crazy obnoxious, please write an article alerting us. until then you will remain adblocked.

I’d honestly just rather stick with Dollar Shave Club, which I’ve been using happily now for... nearly two years now, I think? Looking at the design of this razor by Billie, it looks like every other shitty women’s razor that I tried in the past that not only didn’t do the job well, but irritated my skin to boot.

You sound the yeah but whitesplaining folks. Let me blunt so you don’t misunderstand again. Both parties was is and always have been racist and for the preservation of white supremacy. The article said what it said. 2017 was filled with tons of white Democrats being exposed for their hypocrisy and complicity with…

All Starbursts are delicious. However, only green M&M’s are good, all the other colors taste awful.

I get this from years of reading articles, books, and the criticism on this site and other feminist sites online.

“(including sexual harassment, which shows that the author just wanted to bash 2nd wave feminists for some reason)“

First wave, get the vote.

2nd Wavers (like me) were raised believing that, indeed, women were born with the ability to navigate the power structures they inhibit. They just needed a fair chance to succeed.

Yeah, third wave is terrible. The only positive thing about it is the first appearance of intersectionality. I hate choice feminism almost as much as I hate Cheeto Mussolini. It is completely derailing of gender equality.

1st wave (19th-early 20th centuries): suffragettes and adjacent movements (right to work, to education, to divorce, to BC, etc).

I might personally say, “you do what you want,” but that I wouldn’t call that a feminist position.

The point I am making is that thinking that feminism = “I get to make my own choices, about anything” is misunderstanding feminism.

I haven’t read theorizing of the 4th or 5th waves, but the way the way it breaks down is this: the first wave was named retroactively by the second wave, and it was a term they applied to the 19th-century suffragettes (Susan B. Anthony and so on).

Actually, I think some of the most interesting authors like Ariel Levy are technically Fourth Wave. But you have to contextualize that people at the time had been brainwashed into thinking that all feminist battles had been fought, and the most important thing a woman could do at the time was to be in a Girls Gone…

You are correct. The author of this piece doesn’t know what she’s talking about.

Third wave is mostly considered to be “choice feminism”. Like “I choose my choice so it is ok, and it has nothing to do with the patriarchy if I do porn/get plastic surgery/pretend to be dumb to get men etc”.
