Have you missed that Jezebel is a feminist website? I'm just wondering because this is the second place I've seen you in the last few minutes bemoaning the fate of men. Just because an article is about a women or women doesn't mean we rejoice in misfortunes that happen to men. It just means we're NOT TALKING ABOUT…

I believe the "judge" was acting very traditionally in that he let her run. Surviving your execution like that was generally allowed as they considered your sentence served, in a way. If she survived and could get medical help, I don't think she would be pursued again for the same "crime".

You realize your argument against smart phones is the exact same argument people had against the internet and computers in general when I was a kid? We — as in people right now — have no idea what changing tech will bring and how it will change the way people interact. To presume we do is just silly.

So keep our kids isolated in the stone age, while the rest of us sit in the digital age right? Because that's going to work out sooo well, and never have any ramifications as they grow up.

seriously. Isn't that law intended to protect minors? not punish them? like if a child was a prostitute, you charge the John of having sex with a child prostitute. Not the child for engaging in child prostitution. You could charge the child with breaking curfew, or truancy, etc. - but not with the actual law meant to…

Alright, and this is where I gotta step in and say that you're actually just succumbing to what I call "small world syndrome." Again, the "prevalence" of sex at a younger age isn't actually true. In fact, sexual activity (and pregnancy, etc.) among younger teens has been declining the past couple decades. We just hear…

all reportedly between 13 and 15 years of age. Police are recommending to the district attorney's office that they be charged with first- and second-degree sexual assault of a child.

That obituary was a disgrace, and got the thrashing it deserved on Twitter and in other media (The Australian is a Murdoch paper) yesterday. My fav response with this article imagining the obits of male writers if they were subjected to the same treatment as women.

I don't really have strong feelings about this one way or another.

It is interesting to me how people have so many different views on this. Personally, I'm generally OK with the Mr., Ms., Miss, and Mrs. Thing, but I'm quite a bit uncomfortable with the Mr. And Mrs. Guy's full name. (I'm a recently married cisgendered heterosexual man), so when my phd having cousin sent us a holiday…

Seriously.

How about we just stop with this "open letter" crap? To me it feels like a desperate bid for attention in the vein of "boo, nobody noticed my change of status on Facebook and people don't pay any attention to meeee, so I'm gonna write three pages of crap where I pull out my ex's dirtiest laundry for all the world to…

THIS. Get the fuck over and move the fuck on. No one wants to hear about how bitter you still are all these years later, even if you pretend to be over it (you're not, you wouldn't feel compelled to write a letter if you were). Trust me, not even your closest friends want to hear that story again. And guess what?…

Why the HELL is the stock photo chosen for this story of a "sexy" lawyerly/bookish type woman giving her best "come hither" stare? Seems to defeat the purpose of the article - that we shouldn't be reducing accomplished women to sexual objects? FFS! #fail

You can sort of understand it? Her child was injured and in need of medical treatment. She denied him that treatment. She wouldn't have automatically lost custody... She only would have if she dumped the guy who intentionally burned her child. She chose herself over her severely injured child.

Ok, normally I'm always on the staff's side, etc, but Anna Holden's story is kinda dumb because obviously the lady wanted a Cafe Latte and just didn't know how to pronounce it or whatever. Starbucks spells theirs like Caffe Latte.

I really hate to be that guy and to stick up for coffee latte lady, but doesn't "cafe" literally translate from French to English as "coffee"? As such, isn't a "coffee latte" really exactly the same damn thing as a "cafe latte"? Suck up the fact that she's an idiot and can't comprehend it is supposed to be cafe and…

my sophomore year of high school i decided i wanted dark purple and blonde highlights (bad idea from the start) but i have dark brown hair. so the dark purple only showed up where i put the blonde, and it turned out bright fucking pink. so my part and bangs were bright neon pink and i had a teeny bit of blonde…

In high school, my hair was waist-length, auburn, thick and wavy. In retrospect, it was lovely. So of course, I had to ruin things. I bought black hair dye (black like my wannabe goth soul,) and went to town.

When I was 15 or so I finally convinced my mom to let me dye my hair. I did it myself, tried to go blonde and ended up bright orange. Like BRIGHT ORANGE.
