I’m glad someone said this. I know that our criminal justice system is incredibly broken and I think that we truly do criminalize somethings that shouldn’t be...but how do you hold someone accountable for this? They didn’t charge her the first time, they told her it wasn’t okay, and then she did it anyway. In the…
This seems like a good time. *ahem*
I agree the recordings and other evidence do not make her look good.
Perspective is everything.
We (white women) grow up being told that feminism is over. Feminists got what they want, and anything else is just crying out for attention. Oh and bra burning, because the idea of burning a garment is somehow always noteworthy.
So, when a young white woman starts to get it together and tries…
Same here! I was never the dream wedding planner as a child. I was never one to play house, and I remember one time a group of friends wanted to play “restaurant”, I was a customer, and when asked can I take your order, I said no!
I think “customer service voice” is another extension of this. When I’m performing customer service my voice is several notches higher than my resting bitch voice. I know there’s been some controversy about hijacking the phrase “emotional labor” and applying it to personal relationships but I feel as though I have to…
“Those in charge of and responsible for overseeing the show failed to recognize or anticipate the racist references and cultural insensitivities that were obvious to almost everybody else.”
I was thinking on my way to work today that the Weinstein case ended sort of how we wanted, but will the new narrative be “Now that MeToo has been solved...”
“There are huge consequences when [black women] express our rage because we’re seen as threatening,” she said in an email, even noting that her post likely wouldn’t have been as popular “if I wasn’t code switching and couching my profound disappointment and anger in ‘eloquent’ ways.” And while she’s heartened by the…
Thanks for grossing us out with this dick’s face that looks like a dick- reminding everyone he brought on trump because he refused to support the woman that beat him in the polls.
The only people I know who have ever intervened are women. Men will pretend that “protecting the women” is part of their masculinity trip but really most of them are cowards.
Hard. Same.
You’re not interesting because you jerked off in front of women for decades. Why does that mean I have to listen to you? Why does that make you interesting. You didn’t get your career ruined by a vindictive creep. You spent 20 years harassing your colleagues and threatening them with retaliation and now I gotta…
I did acknowledge Grande has a dreamy voice. But she does not enunciate. What is she saying?? I thought both voice and enunciation were important to be considered good....no? We have good pretty recent examples of that: Adele, Amy Winehouse, and others. I did not say Alanis has a better voice than Grande if you look…
How cool is it that a real artist decided to make a real life version from the painting in Bojack’s office?
Me:
Ok, this (among other reasons) is why people here don’t believe your story: it reads like very obvious Kinja wank fodder written by a bored man. I know no woman on the planet who’d send identifiable nudes to a stranger from the internet, but refuse to meet him in a public place first - or see a picture of him - or…
