Oooooohhhh... You’re a troll. Thanks for clearing that up.

If I were one of those people who knew how to embed, this would be a great opportunity for <FLAMES. FLAMES ON THE SIDE OF MY FACE.>

They make engagement rings in “removable” now, but thanks for playing.

In no way do I blame you for recognizing what you were smelling and playing along. I do want to point out to others who may read this that—though I understand this may not be the chosen path for so very many reasons—any employer who asks you about your childbearing plans is also begging for an expensive lawsuit. Many,…

Oh, how I wish that that attitude was (or were still) limited to men...

When I was job hunting a bit less than a decade ago, the “common wisdom” among my fellow interviewee ladies was also that you shouldn’t wear an engagement (or wedding) ring—but back then the reasoning was not that potential employers would assume you were high maintenance. Rather, the rumored thinking was that an…

Silly rabbit—most poor people won’t be able to afford a trip to Mexico (although I suppose it’s time that low income women in Texas and Arizona catch some kind of break), and rich people will always be able to get abortions if they want them.

Indeed. As far as I know, PP won’t let me earmark my donations as I’d like— “Specifically to help pay for abortions.” So I also give to direct funding organizations like Fund Texas Choice.

Ok. I think makeup is fun and that I’m beautiful with or without it, but you do you.

Why?

For concealer, check out Amazing Cosmetics (available at Sephora)—for years, I used their palest shade, which is perfect for paper ghosts with just an allegation of a golden undertone, and is utterly immoveable.

I find her semantic juggling act (at whatever speed) troubling. I find yours boring. Bye now.

I don’t consume her “real life”. I don’t give a shit who she’s friends with (and that also goes out to those who think her friendship, or the friendship of any other “feminists”, somehow absolves Metzger). I give a shit about who she employs. I give a shit about how much of her ass she thinks she covers by playing…

If I may offer a suggestion: perhaps“feminist” (including the scare quotes) would be more accurate?

True, they might be. And if they come to my attention for publicly displaying repulsive behavior/attitudes, as Metzger has, I’ll call them assholes too.

I’m always so grateful when men fight the good fight against my enslavement by protecting my obligation to wear less clothing in public.

And? So I read his Facebook post. Doesn’t really change a thing for me. Then, shockingly, his friend likes him. And?

Feminism can be learned, but it’s not contagious by association. Plenty of feminists have friends who are assholes. Plenty of feminists have even, *gasp*, married assholes. “I have feminist friends” is not a get out of jail free card to be an asshole. Audiences aren’t obliged to judge Kurt Metzger on how he treats…

Where is Stefon when you need him?

I think you meant upside down.
