Okay, what?

Not to be the Debbie Downer here, but...

“People have told me “It’s cleaner!” I have to wonder, have they heard of soap? Ripping out your pubic hair so that your ladyparts are “cleaner” is like having your arm amputated so that your arm pit will be cleaner.<\q>
No, it's like waxing your pits. Which plenty of women do.
Jesus pube-shaming Christ, this is easily

Why have you deleted Ninjacates post from the comments it had 31 recomends. Oh yeah this will solve your marginalization of WOC problem, just silence more Women. [please recomend this to move it out the greys]

Your article or ABC has taken what he said out of context. He specifically made a point about wanting his kid to know about Africa because he said he has a passion for the plight of endangered species in the region:

It's interesting that a light-complected, smooth-skinned, high-cheekboned, red-lipped, blue-eyed, straight(ish)-haired white woman was selected to grace the cover.

Hmm... I seem to recall something similar happening to WoC recently... I can't seem to call it to mind... What was that thing? Where some people stood by and let WoC be abused and did nothing? And then didn't apologize?

Now there can be no BS response from editors saying "This isn't a feminist site" as an excuse.

A 'guide to feminism'? Are you going to quit it with the 'Jezebel isn't a feminist website' cop out when you publish questionable things now?

Please don't lump "Europe" into your huge over-generalization. The majority of European nations DO NOT favor circumcision. In the UK it almost never performed (under 4% of the male population).

And all just leave this here for all the HIV prevention people: FALSE

That's actually not accurate. The scientific evidence for these "benefits" basically vanishes on inspection; the studies are based on African adults who opt for the procedure (not on infants), and don't control for the months-long period of sexual abstinence that happens when you basically have a piece of your dick

Fraternities. Will never understand them. Seems to be just college-sponsored entitled douchebaggery. We don't have them in the UK and I hope it stays that way.

The fact that this comment got 50 recs is depressing as Hell. So much for fat women having thin women's backs. I'm out.

As a black, immigrant woman who happens to be thin, I'd like to know some more about this amazing privilege I possess.

God, please think before you type. "Privilege" is something one is typically born into and cannot control. Weight does not inherently fall under this category. And the insinuation that thin/skinny people are somehow completely immune from some from of condescension, discrimination, or habitual stereotyping is also out

That's not reasonable at all. The United States is one country, with one language, one president, one government, one set of federal laws. Europe has no ruling body that overrides the rules of the member countries. We have different languages and cultures. To act like the difference between, say, Spain and Ireland and

You literally said comments under articles and the opinions of the people you communicate with are representative of the society. You said that. Don't make me go up and quote you.

Did you seriously just tell someone who was kidnapped and tortured that they were "loser-ish" while living with their parents to recover from that experience? REALLY? Asking someone to analyze whether they were a "sadsack" while recovering, with a great support network I wouldn't have in similar circumstances, from a

You know, this is all striking me as extremely ableist as well. You realize there are disabled people who depend on others, family or professionals, for care? Who are incapable of complete autonomy? Creeps/losers/sadsacks?Undatable, in your opinion?
