This isn't Hope Solo first time being involved in a drunken brawl. She got into a fight with her husband the day for her wedding he was arrested and Jezebel is not the only ones covering Hope this way. If you look at any article about Hope Solo they pretty much are saying the same thing. U.S. Soccer is seriously…

Jezebel has done WAY more coverage of Elevatorgate than on Hope Solo
Well alright MISS JACKSON!
The 'brand" of the network definitely plays a part in people's TV choices. Think about how well HBO has done in aligning itself with quality programming. Consider Game of Thrones in which 14 million viewers pay to watch the show. Or compare AMC (which is non subscription) at it's peak The Walking Dead brings in…
LA Times the same paper owned by the oh so conservative and fan of race baiting Chicago Tribune yikes! Yes, the Post has a smattering of conservative jackasses but so does every other "national" paper. The Post does amazing local coverage if you are a local you're still stuck with The Post until Amazon feels like…
No, what I am saying is that pale skin or lighter skin has never been a "preference" pre dating slavery and that there are African cultures where to be light skinned, lighter skinned or pale considered ugly and that there is no "universal" beauty standard.
Because colorism when it relates to people of African descent is a directly cause from the racism that fueled the colonialism. In the case of African women who have been subjected to hundreds of years of dehumanizing treatment tied by their oppressors to their skin color, colorism is a sub growth of the affects of…
What I am saying is that prior to Europeans arrival Africa and a rich cultural history and if one were to do research they would find that there were many myths, stories, traditions where having pale skin was a negative not a preference. Some historians attribute this to instances when people became ill and or died…
Here's some info about the wave of Albino murders throughout Africa which is rooted in fear of pale skin
But in Africa, not China, there is a direct corollary between colonialism, racism and the preference for light skin. If you look into the history of Africa, white skin/ pale skin has traditionally been viewed an indication of death or disease and if you look at cultures that have had less contact with European…
Or this one...
A King Jeffery - is what we call folks at work who are supreme douches.
If you hate a character that means the character is well written, LOL... I see I missed the Season 1 point on the thread. However I will respectfully disagree having grown up around B-More I found the female characters to drawn quite well and realistically. I loved the school principle who took no shit, freeze curls…
I beg to differ the sexual violence is very glamorize the soft key lighting, the close up angles of the thrusting, the lack of body diversity (most of the victim's are large breasted and slim and some are professional porn stars) and focus on the emotional excitement of the rapist(s).
They did some great character arcs for the straight women on the show... I listed those characters in a post to Emma. I think that people forget because there were so many characters, LOL but they were their the State's Attorney for one comes to mind.
You didn't watch "The Wire" did you otherwise you would not have had a hard time listing the female characters, LOL! The Wire treated women way better than GOT because it was based in reality and the women were given something to do outside of breed future kings, get raped and murdered and this is someone's fantasy???
Sorry the pic didn't stick... here's my dog side eye
And I will cosign with some side eye...
