Yes, because she just “made” it without any difficulty or effort on her part and she’s certainly not qualified to speak about the sexism in the music industry after working her way through it... Let’s ignore the fact that she has stated that she was raped by a producer as a budding artist. That’s certainly not sexism

“bearded people need to be rounded up and executed”

She’s who I want to be when I grow young. Flawless always. In mind and appearance.

You better get a fucking refund on that (imaginary) degree if you don’t know the difference between a corporate board of directors and a studio chair.

Her attitude appears to be “there is no such thing as rape when alcohol is involved”, yet somehow also, “the choice of women and girls to drink alcohol causes rape.”

The fact that Mallory Ortburg is Prudie is the only reason I’m willing to set foot on Slate again. Emily Yoffee is a horrible person, and she dragged down the quality of the site.

She’s gone! Mallory Ortberg from The Toast is Prudie now.
