The best explanation I've heard is one of "are you wearing the clothes or a costume?" Wearing a costume is bad. Wearing the clothes is fine.

? But it's okay for Indians to wear jeans?

I really loved the rebranding, but have mostly gone back to Macy's since they started reversing it. (Sigh.)

Hmm.

I suggested we send him back to the Gold Coast, since the hotels liked him there. My Australian fiancé shot that down real fast.

Psst.

Come sit next to me, we can be the worst together.

That's a particular line of thought ("generalizations against MY group are wrong, but FINE for other groups") that has been coming up a disturbing amount in Jezebel comments lately.

I know. I had the same disturbing thought. "Wait, she's advocating it would be better if girls took pictures of themselves out doing something/achieving things, rather than standing in a bathroom, holy hell I agree with Sarah Palin IS THE WORLD ENDING?! ARE THERE PIGS? FLYING PIGS?!"

Speaking of Bieber, he may be deported back to Canada.

I suspect the bigger key to the whole thing may be her comment about not wanting to be alone. (She doesn't want to be alone, she wants what her parents have, so she keeps trying, without realizing that likely, the first step is to be okay being alone. Because another person isn't going to fix whatever it is that's

What the what?

There's a line from a Cowboy Junkies song that a person once said was the perfect description of me: pale as milk, bold as a promise.

If she's fair/porcelain, I'm apparently "ghost". :/

I nominate Winnipeg and/or Edmonton. Both are unnaturally polite places. :p

Well, your second two points seemed specifically directed at Ari. I did reply with some general thoughts about deciding someone else is an Alpha, because I've had a chance to hear from men, over the last two years, about the kinds of pressures they feel that description pushes on them. But I removed it since the rest

Sorry, but I do respectfully disagree. Asking people to remember that microaggressions to outright hostility isn't directed at them, just the people who deserve it, is a really good way to drive allies away.

FWIW, I don't think it's click bait season. I think it's new writers and interns season, and there isn't as much editorial oversight as there should be for new writers. (Altho that still doesn't excuse the sex toy story angle; I think Jezebel does have a problem treating men well and equally, which is why the canard

It was too bad about the sex toys thing, too, since it was actually a really funny article worth mentioning. Slightly re-writing it so that it didn't shame men would have been easy enough, while still keeping the overall content of "this was a hilarious thing to read."

Yeah, my fiancé's ex was a real bitch about berating him for not providing for her while he was in grad school, so he's doubly sensitive about it now (and he cannot legally work for a few months after he moves here). It's fun. THANKS SOCIETY!
