Yes but does that mean that the term can't live on and be redefined, while ignoring the asshole who coined it? I mean, the Nazis invented the volkswagen but the cars are still around today and no one goes around saying we shouldn't drive them because of the Nazis.

Great piece. This line especially jumped out at me:

I would try boob-butter. But then I'm gross and would try anything once.

One of my best friends is vegetarian because she hates the taste and smell of meat. It's not moral at all and she has no qualms about wearing leather or silk.

And vegans wonder why they have a bad reputation...

I'm not opposed to this law. I think the law means well and it's not going to change anything in the sex lives of people having consensual sex in California. I just don't think it's going to change anything in the sense that no would-be-rapist is going to read this law and thing, "oh man so this means I can't fuck…

What the fuck are you talking about? Does the website in question even mention being a woman? Is it aimed at women? It's not even specifically about rape. It's tips/advice for people (of both genders!) to avoid crime (all crime! Not just rape!) on campus. Because not all campus crimes are about women getting raped.…

Or, you know, walking around in a dark street with a clearly expensive set of headphones on, while holding up your clearly expensive iPad, and wearing a big diamond watch or something. It doesn't mean that some guy is right to mug you but maybe if you weren't wearing headphones you would have noticed the mugger…

It's cop writing, obviously it's not going to be a subtle, well thought out piece but it's just safety tips to help people be safe and maybe prevent some crimes of opportunity. It's not directed at women specifically nor is it only about sexual assault so I'm having a hard time understanding what is so awful about…

The article isn't specifically about rape. It's about crime prevention. All crimes. It's not even specifically directed at women. And while you can't prevent all crimes from happening, you can keep your guard up and observe your surroundings. Just like when you travel, it's not a good idea to walk around in bermudas…

Exactly. I don't like cookie-cutter beauty, I love interesting looking people but yeah, I don't need dumpy and plain in fashion spreads or photos.

I want to read the Jeffrey Steingarten piece. He's my favourite food writer and possibly the only reason I still buy Vogue every once in a while.

I don't even know this brand. I just think it's hilariously predictable that whenever Jezebel has a post about a magazine or company featuring non-model models, the first thing people bitch about in the comments is that the models still aren't fat or ugly enough.

They don't make plus size clothes so why would they have plus size models?

Can't wait for someone to complain that none of the comedians are fat or ugly.

I see you obviously didn't see my comment about how I would feel the same if a man refused to go down on me, and that sex is a two way street and that it's not just about receiving pleasure but about giving your partner pleasure as well? So spare me the bullshit about how my opinion of this is really the result of…

You're really into your Outrage Porn, aren't you?

LOL you're joking, right? And they say Germans aren't funny.

LOL I didn't know that I was on trial and that I had no right to specify that I was only expressing my personal opinion. Does this mean I should hire a lawyer? I have an opinion, you don't have to agree nor am I saying that what I say is law. You're free to disagree with it and think I'm an asshole for holding that…

i had wondered if you ascribed to dan savage's idea of a good mate.
