As a flailing, one-foot-in/one-foot-out member of the evangelical world, I can confirm that the majority of father/daughter dances are centered around the idea of preserving sexual “purity” and promising dad (ew) that you will remain a virgin until you marry (again, fucking ew - why does dad have to be so involved…

I’m with you there. My daughter and I went to father-daughter dances and it was a nice bonding experience. I thought it seemed a little squicky myself, what with us both being dressed to the nines, but she was always super-stoked about it year after year and still hangs on to the pictures from those dances. We’d…

That is still what is being taught in my nieces’ schools. I also see textbooks posted regularly with the same ish.

1. A lot of Jezebel readers don’t read The Root (although they should).

White women, put your money where your mouth is. Since you are the most “coveted” by men, and hold the most ‘pussy power’, you need to use that power to voice and enact change.

I am PRO “Hey White Women!!!” but I mean like... HALF OF THEM DON’T GIVE A FUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK.

Which is so weird, because we’re not that long removed from Harry dressing up a Nazi or the recordings of him in the army using racial slurs. I’m someone who remembers this, and somehow even I still like him better than William, whose only real fault has been ceasing to be a teen heartthrob

RIP beautiful locks. RIP.

lorddddddddd almighty darren criss is hot as hell. he’s like if you combined max greenfield with chris messina. with maybe just a dash of brendan urie. so, basically, my ideal man.

Why do only really shitty rappers ever get covered? Chief Kief, those two assholes from Oakland, and a few others.

Not just in Maryland, sadly. All over the country. I wonder how these things will age.

I don’t speak Italian beyond the three pages of common phrases in the back of Rick Steves’s Italy

$25 is too high. Looking at comparable institutions: The Louvre is €8.50 (~$11.00) and the Prado is €9.50 (~$12.00) for adults.

Just because he was the boyfriend of Taylor’s that I remember.

I would say Katy Perry is one of those few exceptions however as she’s a safe easy target who’d already fallen out of public favour.

Katy is a very sexualized white woman though and she donated $$ to planned parenthood recently. She’s an easy target; a slut who loves abortions!! Kim is too in some ways.

I still go on there quite a bit for the political stuff like The Slot but I agree there’s definitely way too much “White Feminism” on there. That thread during Charlottesville where a bunch of commentators randomly started chatting shit about The Root for being “Anti-White” was a fucking mess.

Taylor won’t attack a White Woman probably not because of that person’s individual privilege but more, as you reference towards the start of the article, in that her entire thing since the fame she got for being upstagged by West years ago has been to make herself into the musical equivalent of “Easy Listening…

I said it once, I’ll say it again;
