So what? People are superficial. Shit like that happens all the time. You don't think short guys have it tough, too?

And maybe drum up some business to help stimulate the economy.
I don't understand the gripe of this article. Their primary purpose is to try to make videos some people think are nonetheless sleazy but that their audience finds amusing by virtue of girls doing sexual things (or whatever). It's not really any different than normal pornography. Just think of their baseline video as…
Honestly, I am a staunch feminist and I don't understand the big problem here, assuming participation is fully voluntary/non-coercive (which it appears to be). Nor do I think it makes sense for organizations to reject donations unless the funds were obtained through abuse or fraud. Is this fundraising scheme in bad…
No, thanks. I'm not watching that video. Not on a bet. But I don't see how these women are being manipulated. Are they really that incapable of saying "I care about this issue, but I don't want to ride a sex toy in public and have you videotape the whole thing"? Is that really so hard? I don't think so. I gotta give…
yes, it's stupid. no, it's not funny. but it's ultimately harmless and you're creating controversy where there is none. (big surprise).
I know your job is to manufacture controversies, but this is stretching it a bit of far. The women in the video see it's all in good fun, and they aren't being forced to do anything. Try yanking the enormous stick out of your ass.
Oh those creepy creeps just being creepy and all these women laughing and joining at their own volition and engaging a part of their body that is being cut off in certain cultures. Good god. Just pretending to think that way makes me wanna tell myself to lighten up.
Um they would say no, just like every single one of these women had the opportunity to do. As long as everyone is a willing participant where's the harm?
the saddest part about this is that the organization rejected the money they wanted to donate.
Can lesbians donate blood? Yes?
Matt, you are using a BS argument to foment outrage where there should be none. Your notion of rapidly detecting blood borne pathogens like HIV has no relevance to the world of Blood Banking. Blood Banks use screening tests, not diagnostic tests (if you don't immediately understand the difference you should recuse…
Feminism is about empowering women, not ridiculing the entire male gender in a combative manner. The later does nothing but reinforce and justify negative stereotypes.
The victim elects to use the University system instead of the police. It isn't as if when you are raped in college you aren't allowed to report it to the police and press for prosecution.
Are you under the impression that the college could have done anything at all against this student besides tossing him out of school? They can't, at all, and if they withheld his credits he can sue the crap out of them because they have no authority to determine his status as a rapist.
"My biggest thing is really sisterhood more than feminism. I don't know how we as women expect men to respect us because we don't even seem to respect each other. There's so much jealousy, so much comparison and envy. And "This girl did this to me and that girl did that to me." And it's just so silly and heartbreaking…
She looks like a Skyrim character.
Well I disagree that thoughts are harmful. There are a lot of older Americans that still harbor racist and bigoted thoughts, but don't act off them in any way. There are also a lot of younger Americans that are growing up in fairly homogeneous communities all over the country which unfortunately foster bigoted…
I don't like it. I don't get the uproar over this, I've seen your comments and I think that you're very intelligent - how do you reconcile the breach of personal personal privacy that occurred during this whole controversy, as well as the balancing of his positive/negative affects on minority communities.
I don't like…
Saying "most men" are sexist is different than saying "a lot of men". No one is pretending that everything is hunky dory. I just think it is important for everyone to be intellectually honest when discussing sexism. If women don't want to be stereotyped, generalized, labelled, and painted with broad strokes, doesn't…
