Nancy Motes should just STFU about anything negative JR said to her, because JR is Famous. Also Paula Deen's employees should just STFU too- because when a Famous person is viciously mean, telling the media about it is "whining" and shows a lack of strength of character. Whether someone calls you a fat loser or a…

Why is it a secret?

Yeah, white women just aren't the people to dissect black male behavior (or any problems affecting black men and boys) b/c too much of the commentary has an obvious racial bias, and I just don't see the same criticism lobbed at white men known for outrageous behavior and yeah, they had that guy on staff who was an…

Hi, I think I can answer some questions about the not praying on your period one. I am a Muslim woman and we cannot pray when we have our period and I have never heard of another religion where this is the case (but I could be totally incorrect), so I am assuming the asker's friend is a Muslim. As Muslims, we have…

I SHARE THIS FEAR

The idea of cuddling is wonderful but the execution is rarely romantic. At least in my experience. If I am the little spoon, I am always, always nervous that I will fart on my boyfriend when I'm sleeping. And not cute, tiny, little ones either. Also we get hella sweaty - he's a furnace and so am I so we're both sweaty…

Oh boy, there it is. "...breastfeeding in front of God and everyone." Now your little diatribe makes sense.

THIS!!! I am outraged, truly. Most of us that have commented on the asshole-comment that is SO OBVIOUSLY prejudice against Muslims are in the greys, and most of the comments in this thread have completely ignored the fact that this person is an ignorant piece of shit. I'm really, really disappointed in Jezebel and the…

I had a weird hobby, too. It was called "going to law school."

Fair enough. We all are guilty of that.

Because when they get caught out, saying something racially insensitive in public, most white people in that position tend to trot out the old "But I'm not racist, I have black friends" to negate their obvious, glaring racism.

1. So they can justify their racism.

A while back a Jez reader asked how she could make a black friend and she got very publicly schooled on why that was so wrong to ask (I thought her intentions were honorable, even if the question was clunky). Personally, I am in the market for *any* new friends, but our neighborhood is literally the whitest place I've…

"...and about 25% of non-white Americans have zero friends outside their own race. "

He doesn't even care about interesting. Basically, he wants a non-existent individual considering how much he contradicts himself: Extremely polished and stylish yet not vain, nor (ahem) superficial. Very, very thin, an 8 out of 10, but, again, not vain or overly concerned with looks (read: genetically blessed beyond…

It's the inconsistent use of capitalization that irritates my eye. If you're going to go all lower-case, go full e.e. cummings. Don't half-ass that shit.

I went through this weird phase in college where I kind of accidentally became a club promoter - I was talking to the manager at the club one night and he basically mentioned that if I brought a few (female) friends the next weekend, he would waive our cover and give me free drinks. Being a broke-ass college student,…

So want do you get if they bone? Free boobs?

Well, it's Florida, so I guess they won't strictly speaking be breaking any laws if they DO kill any kids.

YOU GUYS. This is a SERIOUS rich white people issue. It should not be taken lightly. us PoC (or white people who don't tan or tan in the sun) would just never understand the nuances of this subject. Its like not being allowed to freely use the n-word or having to listen to people on the street speak a language that…
