It sounds really judgmental and self-righteous, doesn't it? And then she clarifies it to refer to young gay men of color, and I'm like... WTF, seriously? Does no one at Jezebel understand how problematic that is?

So... it's like a bunny scalp massage? Oh my god that sounds like the most adorable thing ever.
I've seen everyone in my family naked multiple times. It's not even scandalous anymore, but it's not something I readily admit to because apparently that's not a normal reaction?
Ouch. Doesn't that hurt them?
Thanks for removing all doubt that you're an intolerant, ignorant, pathetic asshole. Enjoy!
Let me add on to that last comment, as I don't think my revulsion was clear enough: as a black woman, I find it really shitty of you to imply that the suffering of my loved ones and my ancestors is caused by our genetic inferiority to white people. Kindly fall off a cliff.
I was never lead to believe that physiological differences in race were socially constructed - just the worth we attach to those differences. I mean, even with the genetic variances, all people are pretty much identical at the most basic level.
...no.
This sounds like something my father would've liked. I only attended two sleepovers (not counting family) as a kid, mostly because my dad didn't trust anyone and fully expected I would get beaten or raped.
Yeeeah. Caught that little racist fuckery too, didn't you? I'm honestly starting to think that the ignorance of being a racist asshole is worst than the racism itself.
M'kay. I'll make sure to let Beyoncé know that.
Women don't live in a vacuum. You can't honestly expect anyone, regardless of gender identity, to be immune to societal pressure. That doesn't mean they still can't champion women's rights and equality. As long as women understand the hegemony implicit in the way they dress, I don't see why they should suddenly start…
Ah, I see. You're slut-shaming women for their own good. It all makes sense now.
I thought feminism was all about letting women do whatever the fuck they want without getting all superior about your choices in opposed to theirs.
With every insurance you have to decide what kind of coverage you want. Sure, you don't know if you will wreck your car, but you still get to decide if you want full coverage in case you wreck it or liability in hopes of not wrecking it. You have to decide whether you want your dental insurance to cover orthodontic…
Yeah, everyone does it. No, it doesn't sound particularly savory when you're from an outside group (especially one who is the brunt of the joke) but it's not meant that way at all. I think it's especially hard for POC because every day, we're told our outrage is misplaced. We're told that we're overreacting, or we're…
This is an argument POC have to counter so much, I'm not surprised you're getting so much flack. When POC say "white folks," they're referring to the stupid, racist ones. If you're not racist, then you're not an issue, so your outrage is ridiculous, and you need to step back so they can vent in peace.
They have vibrators shaped like rubber ducks and lipstick tubes... look for one of those!
That didn't just kill my lady boner - it wilted up and fell off.
Your opinion is your own business, but don't you fucking dare try to dump your bullshit, pompous assumptions on other people. You don't get to tell people whether their outrage is reasonable. And FYI, your status as a "coloured" person isn't some special gold star that makes any racist piece of shit that comes out of…
