Doesn’t quite sound like I’m the one who’s triggered here.

Well at least your name is accurate. Rude is a good description.

Not really, I just don’t buy into the “gender spectrum” idea.

Huh, weird. It would almost seem like if more liberal leaning people actually voted, donated money, and volunteered their time, more liberal leaning candidates would win. But that’s just nonsense. Let’s continue to do the exact opposite of the work that batshit crazy right wingers put in to make the Tea Party and…

Waked: As we gather to mourn the loss of our mother, let us not dwell on our differences, but instead celebrate her life and wish we had more time to mend our relationship with her.

Shame on you. The people you’re painting with that slur were around then; it’s just that the patriarchy had yet to figure out how to infiltrate feminism and turn women against each other. You have no fucking idea how much you owe to those women.

You had me until you hit the “non-binary gendered” nonsense.

Yeah, it’s just a matter of time before this whole thread (and possibly my account) gets banned. This site is what male-identified feminism looks like, and it’s frightening and depressing. Just more women bending over backwards not to offend the patriarchy and calling it “empowerment.”

These absolutely homophobic replies you are getting is beyond disgusting. Telling lesbians that they should be open to penis is what passes for lgtb rights nowadays. Unbelievable. A lesbian is a homoSEXual. They are attracted to the female sex. They do not need to “examine their preferences”. They do not have to…

Just a little solidarity. This “feminist” site has turned itself over to where 1) there are no lesbian authors (Rich Juzwiak covers the lesbian beat), and 2) dare say anything in defense of what makes a lesbian tick, you’ll get flamed. Instead of maybe being alarmed with the trend, they attack you.

Gross. Revolting. The almighty penis always front & center, a banner of aggression, anger, discord and lack of compassion. I am a hetero woman of the plainest variety. I have no dog in this fight other than rejecting such attacks on lesbian individuals, regardless of their personal beliefs, with all my being. As long…

We need to stop adding letters to this anagram or we need to come up with a new word that encapsulates it all. This isn’t fair to pedants like me.

Apparently lesbians who don’t want to sleep with people who have penises (because they’re lesbians, go figure) will not only not be allowed at Pride but will be punched and/or threatened with lynching:

I’d argue most Americans still don’t know many of those things. I blew my mom’s mind when I told her about our overthrow of Iran’s democracy the other day. And I’m no expert, I just read her the Wiki page. She’s a Trump voter who was wondering “What the heck do we owe to Iran anyway?” Well, quite a lot, some might say.

What else don’t we know? What sort of question is this? Nearly everything.

This is next-level tribalism. “Let’s go burn down their fucking cave and laugh but my goodness how dare they do the same to our cave!?”.

Nope I will choose screen addict child every time. They’re quiet and they’re not bothering anyone.

Quell horreur! Someone snarked at you! ON THE TAKEOUT, of all the nerve! You’re right, I’m exactly like a smug dick holier-than-thou school principal. I’ll spend the rest of the day entertained by this.
Although I will question - how is pointing out the potential legal ramifications of actions mentioned in your comment…

Y’know what? Sometimes mommy deserves a mimosa and discussing the latest political developments with her friends. And sometimes daddy (conspicuously not figuring in your version of the problem) wants twenty minutes of uninterrupted conversation about a topic other than whatever cartoons are popular now. Our parents…

Honestly, what happened to RAISING children? We would have been sitting in the damn car so fast our heads would spin. Poor Mom - but she only had to do it once per kid and we were very well behaved after. Nothing like everyone else getting a treat that you’re denied due to your own behavior.
