fuck “class”. she’s trying to make real change in the industry. expecting women to be “classy” while they work hard at things is just another way of policing them.

The Duchess came out in 2008? Maybe she’s pickier about her roles now?

Are you saying that she thought Aziz Ansari might assault or murder her if she said she didn’t want to have sex with him? I saw nothing in her account of the evening that indicated that possibility ever crossed her mind.

We really need to stop with that “do you know how many women are killed if they say no“ shit. It’s fearmongering. how about how about we tell women to use their best judgement? Why must we scare women into fearing men?

I deeply resent the argument that asks why a woman doesn’t leave a situation like this is victim blaming. This was not a case where she was threatened or intimidated. It was an evening where she felt uncomfortable with the sexual activity she was actively participating in, and did not stand up for herself and say no…

My takeaway? Old time views on courtship and pursuit cannot co-exist with modern feminism. Do away with “non-verbal cues.” Millennial women cannot harp on affirmative consent and then say “But I gave you non-verbal cues.” Can’t have it both ways.

She also expressed her feelings to him the next day. He heard her out and apologized. I see no reason to doubt the sincerity of his apology. His statement on the matter affirms that he took her words to heart.

What power imbalance? She isn’t in his industry, he has no control over her. If she had left on her own accord after dinner, nothing bad would happen to her.

I’m not sure what the power imbalance was in this situation, unless you’re implying that he physically threatened her.

This was a bad date. She had a horrible date with a clueless guy who thought he was being sexy and hot. She was made to feel uncomfortable, and it wasn’t right.

The story reads to me like a groupie dissatisfied she was treated like a groupie.

So this is pretty much what we expected out of the #MeToo movement right?

Correction *your brain is too big* for Zara clothes.

As someone with an enormous noggin, I feel your pain.

The thing that shocks me is when the woman’s head looks way too big for her body. That’s because the skull prevents the head from reducing while the woman’s body can get down to almost skin and bones.

I legit once realized my head was too fat for Zara. I tried on a size large shirt when I am usually a medium everywhere else, and it got stuck on the top of my nose. After I untangled it, I checked to see if there was a zipper or button or anything. Nope. My head is too fat for clothes.

We’re doing great! Cats have taken over the new blankets we bought for living room so they’re great too.

Mine’s Genevieve, which is the French version of my actual name!

I did *not* expect to have an update related to the SNS theme, but here we are: Some Jezzies may remember my freak out last weekend after I deleted a very important database at work. I was *convinced* someone would point out one very specific thing I absolutely should have known better than to do, and I would be…

Joker and Thief, what I am about to write is very direct, and so if your posts are accurate and true, please brace yourself, because this is not subtle.
