I like that advice— don't help anyone hurt someone.

How does "Being a feminist" equate to supporting a woman actively engaging in affair with a married man, while blindsiding the wife?

You want to know how I advised a friend in a similar situation? I told her that ultimately I think her actions stem from the fact that she doesn't respect herself. I also told her that even when I still cared for her as a person, I couldn't respect her for her actions and therefore couldn't continue our friendship.…

Something I've always thought about cheating: In this case, and I guess in a lot of cases like this, the 'Other woman/man' didn't apparantly trash the wife/SO, but having sex with her husband kind of is trashing her, surely? It's saying that she doesn't think she is worth being in a relationship with. Also I think its…

what she was doing was wrong. Full stop. It makes her a person with questionable morals. If you know someone stole money from another and buys you a gift with it and you accept it happily, it makes you a crappy person. Sleeping with a married man makes you a crappy person too.

This is something that we SHOULD be judgmental of though! A person who knowingly dates a married person whose spouse is completely unaware is selfish and deserves to be called out on it.

I went through this. Best friend survived some shitty life experiences, and her behavior changed, and one of those changes was that she became a serial "other woman". I wasn't okay with it — for the reasons you mention, and also because I don't support the concept that being an "accomplice" in someone else's breach…

My mom had lunch (when she was 7 months pregnant, high risk pregnancy too) with the woman my dad was cheating on her with. She asked her to please leave the situation and let her and my dad finish the pregnancy. My mom told her, if they split up after that, whatever. What's done is done.

I would advise them to stop it; first that situation is not ethical and they are both morally wrong. It's doesn't sound as if it was an open relationship or polyamorous. He was cheating. They both were hurting the wife. I'm sure your friend would just have loved it if her husband was cheating on her.

South Park didn't make fun of Lorde. South Park made fun of a writer for Spin Magazine who wrote an incredibly stupid article about Lorde.

This is what those privileged, middle aged, white guys said making fun of poor Lorde:

Why is it that half the time Grammar Nazi's try to correct someone else's grammar on the internet, they turn out to be wrong? It's embarrassing. And what is more embarrassing to me is that 333 people did not see what was wrong with this correction.

This is a good stylistic guideline, but it's not applicable here—his rampage was entirely insane, but it was not entirely masturbatory. Though you may be more interested in the masturbation (and hey, who isn't?), it was only a small part of the rampage and so carries less importance than the adjective "insane." As for…

What bothers me is that any attempt to say that, ethically, there is no difference between what Jezebel and, by extension, their readers are doing, and what some sub-Reddit board did, is distracting and derailing.

last time I checked, people weren't forced to have children. It's a choice, and with that choice comes sacrifice.

Eh, try cicadas fried in peanut oil. Pretty good! I think it's an acquired taste and it'll be a while before the West gets over itself and starts eating them, but insects are really not that bad.

Sorry but her work speaks louder than her words and that is what matters, she is helping some of the most underprivileged women in the world.

She could remove the child from the building until it calmed down. Like most parents would do. Like my parents did with me at restaurants so my tantrum would not cause other people undue distress.

This site is really hypocritical and has no room to talk on the celebrity hacking issue. Their company litigated for the right to have the Hulk Hogan sex tape up. A week before the celeb nudes were released and they acted outraged Defamer put up a video (vine maybe) of a boy band member's dick which he had sent to a…

Not at all, I think. I'm agreeing with Ms. Union and also saying that we have to look at the totality of what we do as feminists that demeans or degrades others.
