I had a shit 2017 because my boyfriend of several years left me and moved away within a month. I am late 40s and was completely in love with him. We were the best of friends, and he admits he stayed too long because he didn’t want to lose the friendship. I believe (as much as people tell me not to) that I found my…

This is not a very feminist response and I’m sure it’s not a comment you need to hear, but it’s from a feminist who has decided it’s okay to say. I started watching and immediately thought, This woman is beautiful. I didn’t realize “this woman” was Lindy West because although I’ve enjoyed your writing for a long time…

Knowing this actually makes me feel better. Thanks.

Why does “gift” need to be a verb?

That bay area salary comment, however nonliteral, is misleading. Most of us who have grown up and/or made our lives in the bay area and haven’t yet been pushed out by insane rents and evictions are barely making it. Good jobs are very hard to find in most fields unless you know someone in the organization and are…

And why would anyone with hyperemesis (severe “morning sickness”) have a third baby?

Since you commented without even reading Dylan Farrow’s article from yesterday, are you going to read up and take back your comment? I hope so.

They don’t care and they don’t want to lose their spot among the cool kids.

I found out that Kylie Jenner and other family members regularly buy houses in LA and flip them. In the middle of a horrible housing crisis when most native Californians will never be able to afford to buy their first home, these rich bastards are making money from speculation, helping to drive up real estate prices,…

Problem is, everyone’s definition of being a dick is different. Most commenters on this site thought Bernie was a sexist dick to HRC because he was critical of her during the campaign, which every candidate in history has done with their opponent.

What a buzzkill to have all the bored people of the western world trying to propel your relationship forward. They didn’t even get to enjoy that honeymoon period when you start telling your friends you met someone. If they are both ready, way to take the magic out of that moment. Or what if they’re nowhere near…

They ask so they can make a non-story story out of the response. Any little bullshit on this topic is clickable.

Alright, keep the racial hate going. Enjoy Trump term 2.

Alrighty. Just keep stereotyping and qualifying people by their race and see where that gets you.

No, she’s not the epitome of a white feminist. She’s the epitome of a bad white feminist (I guess). Not all white feminists suck. If you put your points in these racially generalized terms, good white feminists stop listening to you.

Great gif. Is it Jason Momoa?

I always feel empowered when I hear a woman say “dusty ass bitch.”

The way Mia discovered Woody was sleeping with Soon-Yi: one day she was in his apartment waiting for a kid’s therapy session to end. She found a stack of photos of her naked daughter with her legs spread and her face showing. And yet after that, and after Dylan reported abuse to her, Mia still allowed Woody…

You really should read this Vanity Fair coverage before you defend Woody Allen. Below is my comment also posted above. Mia was not the one who chose to publicize the abuse. She even tried to resolve it by getting Woody to do therapy. It was Woody’s camp that blamed everything on Mia. All other records show that her…

Nope. Nope. I read the Vanity Fair article from the 90s plus all the court transcripts of Woody and Mia’s custody trials (public domain), because I wanted to believe it wasn’t true about Dylan. Since then I’ve been thoroughly convinced it’s true. There’s so much to the story that never got out. The narrative that Mia…
