The DV arrest was 2 years ago. If they really gave a shit they would've canned her before she stopped being useful. There is no reason to believe they're taking some big stand against DV for firing her now.

Agreed!! So stunning.

Wow, what a gross and dismissive thing to say? Yeah, lots of people have had “very bad experiences” with pornography. Victims of child sex abuse are often shown pornography as part of their grooming. And a lot of porn, while consensual, can look really fucking rough and that can be tough to look at, even for people…

I hate to keep harping on this,

My mom overcorrected and explained it to me as “people who prefer spending time with the same gender,” so in 3rd grade my girl friends and I all thought we were gay for a few weeks. Because boys were gross. Turns out I really was gay, but that took some further clarification!!

Is it really true, though? Clint was a young man when the civil rights movement was in full swing. And still wasn't particularly old when gay activism really came into its own. I don't think I buy this notion that the world of today is alien to him. Progress has been happening for a long time, and not just on the…

Well, I’m assuming your SO loves this stuff because they grew up with it, but apparently still turned out feminist! It would be good to talk to them about how they took these movies when they were a kid. But I see no reason to explain those concepts to a 6 year old with those movies - Pocahontas and John Smith are…

I totally understand why you feel this way, and more power to you! But it seems like despite your own love of Little Mermaid, you turned out to be a self aware, intelligent person - me, I loved Disney growing up, loved all the princess stuff, but I was a feminist from a very young age, because that’s what was modeled…

“Can” and “want” are different. Point stands that in the US alone, we have plenty of cities that have the infrastructure and facilities to put on an Olympics right now.

Same :(((

So did you just read half of the comment you’re replying to?

Babs is not a real person. She is not a woman with real sexual agency that we’re shaming. I take issue with the choices of these writers - these male writers - made with regards to her story. My issue is not with her finding Bruce attractive. This was supposed to be about doing justice to her character, and instead…

For what it’s worth, she wasn’t dating Jeffree Star; he’s gay, and they were friends through makeup stuff.

Oh, you haven't used this account in a while!

I was just answering your “who thinks of this as deviant behavior”- in no way an assumption of your own deal

Is that what you think of bi women generally? We’re all just trying to get dudes to notice us? I’m pretty sure naming your sexuality, and acknowledging legitimate attraction to women is the *exact opposite* of just catering to the male gaze.

I think bisexuality is given negative connotations by gay and straight people, in that partners seem to worry they won’t be “enough” - there’s a greater assumption that bi people will cheat. I don’t know if “deviant” is necessarily the word I’d associate with bi stereotypes, but there’s definitely a sense that bi…

I get that. I still think murdering a person with your bare hands is orders of magnitude different than lobbying for damaging and bigoted legislation. Honor killing is a specific phenomena and I see no reason to conflate it with anything just to prove a point. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with acknowledging…

Look, I don’t think Christianity is any better or safer for women, but that is conflating a lot of different kinds of misogyny and violence. I don’t think there’s any reason to act like being anti-choice or anti-gay is the same as literally strangling or beating someone to death.

It’s been a real thing for at least the last few years. People make thousands of dollars with youtube channels and other platforms. Hardly the most important take away of this piece.
