Their clothes are definitely good quality, and I like that they're made in America, but I still refuse to shop there. It's cool that their ads aren't overly madeup and photoshopped, but they are way too sexualized and gross for my tastes. I also can't stand their cultural appropriation. Remember their Afrikan line?…

yeah...that's not okay.

OR accept the reality that while we want to make the world a better place for everyone, terrible shit STILL is going to happen right now, so maybe learn how to protect yourself from it where you can? Obviously, you can't always and no one expects you to. But some things are simple.

Jesus Christ! Not knowing or remembering The Color Purple does not make one "culturally unaware." I am betting you don't know who Satan João is.

The people on this site, I swear to God, are the biggest bunch of self-congratulatory twits.

It's a weird thing to see all the reactions basically saying it's her own fault because she posted the pictures. I get that there's no "don't be an asshole" law, but does that make it okay, morally? Are we at the point of the internet where we're just like "whatevs" when stuff like this happens?

it's a reference to the movie The Color purple. You being culturally unaware does not make you not racist.

A lot of white people just do not understand how these microaggressions, day in, day out, can break a person. I'm actually quite surprised that Marquel's experience resonated with this show's viewers but I'm glad it did. Not that I think getting angry is an invalid response! I do all the time- but I also know that…

In a universe where I not only had reason to walk a red carpet but a dress that required me to wear one those, I can guarantee I would still be enough myself in that universe for the bit of the c-string that's supposed to settle in the butt crack to jut up and out enough for the dress fabric to hang on. Any attempts…

ok, as per Amazon explanation

I'm now having a fit of existential horror. WHAT HAVE I JUST SEEN

Strapless thongs. Like a weird semicircular snap bracelet for your pussy. You're welcome (? :( ?)

This is from Next Stop Greenwich Village:

Have you all seen him in his younger years? A damn fine looking man. I'd even say he was beautiful.

Never say I don't love you.

Me. Literally. Through this entire video set. COME TO ME TINY RHINO. I WILL DRY YOUR TEARS, SNUGGLE YOU, AND GIVE YOU MUD BATHS AND AVENGE YOUR MOTHERS DEATH!

As a Black man, I can understand how some Black people feel about the word "articulate" being used to describe us BUT as a gay man interested in trans issues, I think articulate is the appropriate word to use. Laverne really 'breaks it down' in a coherent and accessible way. She is really good at being able to…

I used "classy" to describe Cox, which I thought might be construed as ... genderist? IDK the words here. but I used it figuring if I was being unintentionally offensive I would be called out on it and learn. Which is kind of the point Cox is making so...

In most cases, I would agree with you, but in this case it appears that Katie Couric was not coming from a place of entitlement. In fact, she appeared humbled, and (as LaVerne Cox pointed out), willing to make her mistake- and be corrected- publicly. That takes a fair amount of humility.

These women are both inspirations I think. Cox showing us how to deal with ignorance being directed your way, and Couric on how to deal with the realization that the ignorance is coming from you. I greatly appreciate Ms. Cox's patience, it must be exhausting to have to constantly educate people about who you are. She…
