I’m not really sure who these “communities” are supposed to be for. My partner and I are maybe in, or adjacent to, their stated demographic (income- wise, potentially mobile, working in tech, etc). I don’t really know anyone who would want to go to a cheese or wine tasting in a communal room in a glorified apartment…

I went to Josie and the Pussycats because it was free. I said no and my uncle said I will by your ticket, your niece wants to go please don’t make me go alone. So I went. I spent the entire movie being stared at like a lunatic because I thought the movie was funny as hell. I am happy the movie is finally getting the…

I went to high school with her. That's the whole story. Hi Rachael :)

I think there are 2 kinds of people not vaccinated at this point:

My mother would have flipped tables if this had happened to me. I would have been pissed and certainly not forgotten about it by college. I’m not that young, either. This is not only misogynistic, this is tiresome. I’m tired of it happening all the time because people keep blaming women for being women. Boys have…

And you know these are the same damn people that would harass a Muslim woman for wearing a hijab.

I tell you what, if a high school principal asked my teenage daughter to unzip her zipped jacket so he could see what she was wearing, he and the district would have been slapped with a lawsuit so fast and hard their teeth would have flown out of their heads. Asking a teenage girl to unzip her jacket? What a fucking…

Those boys can fuck right off and go do online learning or something, if female presence in the class doing normal female things is “distracting”.

Suddenly I’m thinking of my mom’s senior picture. She graduated in 1966. She (and all the other girls in her yearbook) was wearing an off the shoulder shawl thing with what was probably a strapless dress underneath (I’ve never asked her about this and all the girls’ pictures look like they have on the same thing, so…

My school was smart. They just added the cost to some other BS “fees and incidentals” and everyone got a copy.

Ugh. My sixth grade daughter got in trouble with one of her teachers for having a bra strap that slipped out from under her tank top, because it was “a major distraction to the boys in the class.” At a certain point it just gets to, do you need her to wear a full on mennonite full body covering dress?

So I live in St John’s County, which is very red, very conservative Trump evangelical country. And this doesn’t really surprise me very much. There are a lot of people here who think showing some skin makes you a slutty slut and Jesus hates you.  They cheer for a president who has sex with strippers and porn actresses…

I also saw on another article, (not sure if it was this school or another just quoted w/ similar problems), where a girl was taken to the principal’s office for having her shoulders uncovered, and she and her faculty escort passed 4 (!!!) boys in tank tops on the way and no one said a word....

If I recall correctly from reading about this on another site, too: One of the girls in the example photos had asked to make sure her outfit was appropriate before getting her picture taken & was told “yes” by the administration. 
So not only do we have gross sexualization of children who are in fact dressed very…

Oh the irony of wearing a run of the mill ladies’ top, only to be told your body is something to be ashamed of. We’re not sending mixed messages to these girls at all. 

That male teacher mentioned in the linked article would be having to explain to a court how it is not at least sexual harassment to insist that my daughter, that was choosing to wear a hoodie as a shirt that day, had to unzip the jacket in front of him and other male students to show her bra, particularly since a…

So somehow these girls made it all the way through the school day on yearbook photo day without being asked to change their clothes, and nobody noticed anything “inappropriate” until they started putting the actual yearbook together maybe several months later? Sounds totally legit and normal.

“Riley O’Keefe—one of the girls who had her yearbook photo edited—said many of the students who got the citations were asked to unzip jackets on suspicion that they were wearing something inappropriate underneath.”

Why not just put the pictures in the students submitted?  What’s wrong with them?

I’m unhappy that they edited out minor cleavage and thoroughly incensed that the yearbooks cost $100.
