So depressing seeing women on Jezebel so moved by this person who adds nothing interesting to our culture. I see the Kardashian clones all over LA when I’m there. These K women are not college educated; they do nothing to promote strong women. The longest lasting relationship among them is with a Trump supporter with

Also, if the examples I gave are low key and minimal, please PLEASE offer better alternatives.

Yeah I get you. But if a white woman complains online about other white women not doing enough, I hope she’s actually doing something herself.

Valid complaints, but the delivery should take into consideration to the desired outcome. Do you want white women to improve or do you want them to go away? I don’t think it’s realistic to expect anything else with this approach, fair or not. If any group is repeatedly told they (the whole group) are THE problem,

But you didn’t shut up. You commented to criticize other white women for being silent, generalize that men don’t get it either, and tell us there’s no hope. That’s what I’m responding to. You’re also getting my reaction to similar comments, made by others, because yours was closer to the top. I don’t see how these

So it’s negativity and generalizations, comparing actual feminists (activists) to pop stars, and vaguely suggesting white women “do something.” There’s so much unproductive blame, which is understandable if it’s coming from the people who are suffering from the named oppression. But if white women debate even these

Yeah, ego all the way. I’m not touched by this at all. He just made himself the headline and re-traumatized and re-embarrassed his three daughters trying to prove he’s a protector (which has been called into question about all the parents in this story). There’s enough evidence out there that violence doesn’t achieve

Second time today I’ve read of someone at the high school calling his actions “just allegations.” I guess they’re not talking about his proposition of sex to a girl he knew was 17, which is documented in Instagram messages. You can watch his non-apology for that (and Kelly Ripa forgiving him) on Live With Kelly and

Three black people and no pedophiles in that shot - Hollywood finally gets it!

I’m going to suggest that anyone who is unfamiliar with his past go ahead and search “mark wahlberg hate crimes.” While I believe he has probably genuinely changed, it nauseates me to know he continues to over-earn to such an absurd degree. WTF is wrong with this business?

I’m bumming so hard because the original show was one of my favorites ever. It was the chemistry and the mutual, relatable cynicism among the characters. They were progressive for working class white midwesterners. The show dealt with classism, racism, sexism, and homophobia when almost no mainstream entertainment

We’re trying to “end flirting” by a boss to a subordinate in the workplace, fucking yes we are. So I guess forcible stranger rape is the only thing they want us to complain about.

But those hashtags do not represent the majority of women, not even the majority of feminists. Anyone can feel like their group is victimized if they read too many hashtags and comment boards. That is where civility goes to die. Also, people who have been mistreated need to vent sometimes, without editing. Some do it

Who the fuck is being accused of sexual assault who hasn’t done anything?

If I were to guess, men didn’t comment because there was no way to do so in a way that wouldn’t provoke someone with a megaphone.

James Franco did thank his extremely supportive mom - for what? - for giving birth to his brother.

I often make a similar argument about not trashing groups of people by race and gender because it hurts everyone, including the oppressed. But it’s also important not to be too defensive. There’s a lot of history behind the irritated responses. It is disappointing, and stark, that not one male winner mentioned the

Okay, I know she sucks but that photo of Sarah H. S. is just mean.

Chris? Who dat?

Setting aside whether his looks are good, he doesn’t seem to like that bag he’s holding.
