The irony shines bright.

You're right. I just think he's the cutest fake newscaster that could be.

Well, sure made me cry. I wish Seth Meyers the best with his career, family and life, but I'm going to miss his adorable face so damn much.

It sounds like she had a lot of issues with herself.

PLEASE don't apologize for this post! I think you are so right about the whole situation. Most bad parents are not bad because they don't love their kids; it is that they were raised by parents who did not know how to appropriately/healthily express love and so they "love" just as their parents did. Every one of us…

AAH MULDER/SCULLY GIF YOU MADE MY NIGHT!

I apologize if it came off as condescending; it certainly was not meant to be. The acknowledgment of white privilege is an ongoing process for me, and I appreciate you calling me out on what you did. Another woman responded with a very similar opinion to yours—that whites need to just be quiet and we will hear the…

As a white woman who has become aware of the issues surrounding mainstream feminism and the lack of black women's voices, I'd love to get your opinion of how to better popularize intersectionality in feminism, or simply, what do you think it would take to amplify black women's voices and experiences? What steps can…

Indeed. My mother always called them "Blubbas" which I liked because it seemed like a humorous way to talk about something that we were both self-conscious about. I don't think there are real people who actually lack them..?

You're definitely not delusional. It all depends your body type. I'm very straight-figured (barely any waist) and I also am thin, but tend to carry my weight in my lower tummy, thighs and hips (pretty normal?). I find peplums cover my problem areas and also make my waist look smaller. I think a lot of women with…

AMEN. The peplum to me is the holy grail of masking problem areas and making my waist look smaller.

As a very straight-figured woman with almost no waist, I can say that yes, the peplum certainly works for me. It makes my waist look smaller and makes me look more hour-glass, which has obviously been deemed to be more attractive by media.

Oh, absolutely; I don't think it's conscious at all. I believe it to be utter brainwashing (as you put it). Underneath the feeling that they did it for themselves is the echoing of quotes from commercials and everything else the hegemony cooks up to make us feel bad about ourselves. Are there women who…

I'm really glad you said this. As someone who has not given birth, a labioplasty seems really silly to me. But thinking about it within the context of having had kids, it definitely changes, and I think that perspective is often missing from the conversation.

JESUS SOMEONE COMPARED A PART OF YOUR BODY TO GROUND MEAT!?!?

Amen. With such a limited view of actual human bodies (as opposed to photoshopped celebrities), I spent the majority of my adolescence searching the internet for a woman who had a body-type like mine, I guess in order to validate myself in some bizarre/fucked-up way. Unsurprisingly, I was pretty unsuccessful. I…

It's terrible that anyone would say that to anyone and seems simply downright mean :( But I kind of understand your feelings; as someone who has always been self-conscious about my breasts, I simultaneously kind of wish I could do something to change them, while also hating surgery and not liking the typical outcome…

Yeah, I think you're spot on with that. Because, personally, when I hear "I did it for ME," what I really hear is "The patriarch/capitalism/media has used advertising to tell me that I'm not good enough the way I am—especially in terms of being sexually attractive and pleasing men—and need to change to be better, so…

Since when has New York had a ban on plastic grocery bags? (Honest question). Every time I go to the store they're double-bagging the plastic MFs like it's ticker tape. Is it simply not enforced??

Not sure if you were around in the good old days back when Jez was a baby....that was actually a feminist blog. When Anna North was head, things were great. Jezebel was something that I needed as a 14-year-old blooming (intersectional) feminist. But goddamn....with time and Kinja...things have just gotten so…
