LULZ, yes, people's reaction to your hairless head is TOTALLY comparable to how people react to women with hairy armpits! Thanks for pointing that out! And this "Stop empowering them by caving into 'societal pressure'" nonsense is pretty much the definition of privilege. Full stop.

Yep. After that VMA performance, the only comments I heard against Robin Thicke were here on Jez. Everywhere else it was all, "Miley's a slut!" Ugh.

It's easy to be a rebel when you had like half a billion dollars in the bank account before you turned 18.

breaking down structural barriers to equality in political, economic, and social spheres for all women, regardless of race, class, orientation, etc — it's not just 'doing whatever the fuck I want, when I want!' that's pretty frothy, surface, pseudo-feminism.

Considering how bad she is at dealing with the issues of women of color, I would say that Miley Cyrus is already pretty good at feminism.

Have to agree with you, Violet. For one, their bra sizes are perfect for me (non-lacy non-push-up small A cup that doesn't look like a training bra? Only VS!), for two, those cotton undies are the most comfortable thing ever (and non-scratchy cotton lacy bits if you want them), and for three, they last for years.

I have to agree with @VioletGatesy. I'm pretty hard on my bras (though I don't put them in the dryer), and most of my Victoria's Secret bras have lasted for many years. I know that dumping on VS is the cool thing to do here, but I just can't. I've never had a bad experience with them, and I say this as some one who…

I've had VS bras and underwear for years. If you don't dry the bras in the dryer (you shouldn't with any bras), they last for a long long long time. I completely disagree they are poor quality.

"Don't turn around."

You tell 'em Mr. Mark.

Sounds like she has a case....

I think she's going 90s grunge, which is sort of the opposite of 80s-90s hip-hop/rap she's doing now.

Folk. Or blues? She's got the voice for it...so, there's that.

PORQUE NO LAS DOS?!??!?!

This isn't true, this is him as professor macklemore, at 16 btw, sounds like he was listening to a lot of organized konfusion/kool keith, common, and guru and spitting it back up like a 16 year old would. This isn't in anyway what you're describing. You're lying.

I can find literally no evidence of the claim that he "dressed like a thug" (at least in any sort of satirical way) or that he ever covered anyone else's songs. But yes, he did once go by the name Professor Macklemore. Not sure how that's offensive on any level but that was totally his name for a while.

Not to mention you're not "keeping it real" to some of "your own people" unless you were raised in the Barrio.

C'mon, it's too early in the day for Godwin.

The critique, then, should be against the people giving Macklemore the media attention–like Jezebel–not Macklemore for trying to use his influence for positive change. It's not Macklemore's fault people listen to him, and if he didn't try to do something positive with his influence, he'd just be strung up for being a…
