Obviously important to teach boys to ask for consent, but it is just as important to teach boys how to react when you do not get consent.

Maybe i’m stretching things.

Even in my lily white community.

My heart breaks for Atatiana and her nephew.

Let’s be clear: White people are wrong.

Hey it’s really disappointing that you don’t offer subtitles for the deaf and hard of hearing. I always looked forward to reading these submissions and the winning stories but now that they’re done in video format, you’ve excluded at least one portion of your audience. As a website that prides themselves on being…

My fear as well.

I was mad as hell too but I’m glad she brought it up, did it right. Leave less room for her defense team to find a sympathtic white Judge and have her conviction thrown out on some technicality.

The story is always the same; these chucklefucks want to be monsters, but never have that exposed to the public.

I’m really reconsidering the unpleasant thoughts I sent the Judge yesterday when she included in the jury instructions basically the Stand Your Ground Law.

I’m confused.....

I always struggle with the difference between coercion and being clear about what one needs/wants in a relationship. I’m fortunate enough to be in relationships with people who are on the same page as me about non-monogamy, and I dislike drama to the extent that I entirely avoid monogamous people who are ‘willing to…

One thing as a plus-sized person who got married in 2013: they need to be bluntly honest about sizing: bridal wear is still outside the bounds of vanity sizing and stretchy fabrics. I imagine it’s bad enough for a GAP size 6 realizing she’s a wedding dress 12, but to be a Lane Bryant 20 when you can barely find a…

Thank you for your excellent writing on this subject.

Seeing as VS was made for male customers to create their own sexy fantasy using their partners and not for women who would actually be wearing the lingerie, yes women would be more likely to buy from VS if they were less VS.

I haaate VC underwear and lingerie. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY FUCKING STRAPS?! Do these people have any idea what straps do to a body that isn’t totally toned and firm? It ain’t pretty.

VS isn’t going to be Aerie, and VS doesn’t necessarily need to cater to all sizes (it might be in their best interest, but sure, they don’t have to in order to be successful, and it does get expensive in this market since it’s such a specific fit),

Maybe people shopping elsewhere is what is already happening? Maybe the people shopping elsewhere is why VS is not doing well? Just a thought...

It’s almost as if catering to the male gaze, which barely understands how female bodies are built inside and out, is a terrible idea because the actual consumer ends up being a woman who has always known that breasts aren’t ever supposed to be parallel to the owner’s chin so why buy a sports bra that promises that?
