Don’t ever compare the emotional burden of being an unwanted parent to being raped.

Hahahahaha I wondered how the “All Beyonce does is shake her ass” crowd would find a way to hate on this.

lol Cases involving capitol punishment cost on average 5 times more to prosecute. And defending a death penalty case costs about four times as much as defending a case where the death penalty is not considered.

She’s always come across bitter as hell and whatever issues she may have had during that time should have been dimmed by time. The fact that it has not definitely makes me believe the rumors that she’s difficult and maybe unhinged.

Jesus, it’s like people here don’t understand that the very concept of a dress code is intended to enforce class and gender norms. Like, yes, this is sexist. It’s also classist. All dress codes are, and intentionally so.

Uhh, you know that not everyone takes birth control solely to prevent pregnancy, right? There are other benefits that people can’t get through use of a condom.

I think if, after hearing this, people can’t empathize with her and see that she is a woman - a rich, famous woman - but a woman, vulnerable to violence and rape like all of the rest of us, they never will. Having this happen is awful. Having this happen BECAUSE you are famous and rich and then being more or less…

And who tf cares if she does? It’s her trauma. We don’t get to say what she does with it.

Exactly. I don’t quite understand some people’s aversion to adoption, but if there is a moral imperative to adopt waiting children, then it applies to all of us, not just to infertile couples.

Ditto. I made it clear to my employers that I will not be doing any travels to the US (from Canada) until they completely reverse their policy.

Girl Guides/Scouts, always a few steps ahead of the boy equivalency.

Since this comment section is 85% garbage that is somehow both sopping wet AND on fire, please respond with A) your favorite Viola Davis performance or B) a work of art you love that celebrates the living of life.

It’s not just about “not doing” what we do everyday. It’s about using that time to focus on women’s issues. So if a SAHM tells her spouse he needs to take the day off so she can write letters and volunteer and protest and call her reps, that sounds very valuable to me.

If the purpose of the day is to show the impact of women in the workforce, I still think staying home (even if it means your kid stays home too) is worth it. Not that you need to be reminded, but if a school day is disrupted it proves the entire point-- You (the general you) depend on women to do their jobs so you can…

I’m not sure, but I think going to work and pointing out the void left by the women would be more effective.

Aside from being Adele’s third-best album, the Album of the Year award is supposed to “honor artistic achievement, technical proficiency and overall excellence in the recording industry, without regard to album sales or chart position.” This includes production, songwriting, structure etc; divorcing Lemonade from its…

I mean, she’s the best, right? I’m a 40 year-old straight, white dude. I’ve lived through every other dominant male or female recording superstar for the last 35 years. She just destroys everything in her path. I am in awe of what she is able to do to impact music.

Hello. I’m not American. Can someone tell me why America thought it was a good idea to make a functionally illiterate man with severe personality disorders the President of the United States of America?

fences should be seen, but imo, wait and watch it at home, on demand. it’s an “ugly sob and curl into a fetal position” kind of emotional rollercoaster.

Jesus Christ removing pubic hair DOES NOT MEAN a vagina looks prepubescent. How fucking insulting.
