A lot of people don’t realize this, but Hamilton was actually LMM’s second Tony-winning Broadway hip-hop musical about immigrants, and this won’t be the first time he returns to the starring role in his own production for a special run in Puerto Rico. Here’s a wonderful interview with Playbill about how important it

No, I say pathologically as it is a disease.

I have never read a single thing about this woman that makes me think she is anything other than a shallow asshole.

Just want to add (obviously not directed at all at Danielle): fuck whoever starred this misogynistic piece of shit who thinks women are (a) responsible for men behaving like creeps and predators (b) responsible for “changing” the behavior of said creeps and predators. Y’all don’t listen to us even if we were screaming

Thank you for sharing this.

As a dude (cis-het), I don’t think I’ve ever had to deal with something like this. I’ve been cat-called once or twice by friends back when I was in college, but that always felt playful—never derogatory, never as if someone else were trying to take ownership over my body, and never

This woman was at work. A women out in a social setting probably has different expectations for her interactions with men so flirting may not be unwelcome.

Ladies, please remember this. Doesn’t matter if the dude is a pastor, politician, president or police man...

Street harassment is a whole different thing than the original example though! People who work together or move in the same social circles DO have the potential to form romantic relationships based on time spent getting to know each other. If one initiates and the other declines it SHOULD be case closed. Continuing to

And if any party involved is at work, don’t hit on them AT ALL. That’s a reasonable rule.

I completely agree. A few years ago I was hit on while walking down the street and it wasn’t creepy because I could tell that if I said no then he would go away. That’s literally the only example of that I have. Women get really good at recognizing creeps. Be polite. Express your interest. Accept her response. No

I have heard several men make this sort of comment recently about how they could possibly be expected to discern between an appropriate and an inappropriate gesture of interest in a woman. As if the two are so terribly similar that one might “accidentally” harass a woman. Like, how could any well-meaning gentleman

I’m a black, disabled, queer woman from the south and I don’t resent a fucking to-the-manor-born journalist one bit. He hasn’t taken a thing from me and, with this gig, has given so very much back to me. Hush.

What gives me both hope and despair is that this sort of abusive workplace culture is not a force of nature - it is created and fostered by human beings. It can be resisted, brought to light, changed. That’s incredibly difficult when it’s just one person piping up to say this shit is fucked, but if you can truly

More likely, she doesn’t care. Not everything revolves around white people.

Yes, but this is only acceptable when it’s said to white women. Apparently.

She’s saying her music IS for People of Color and she’s not afraid to say it. I’m with it. I am a non-Black person who attends LA BLM meetings and before they allow any non-Black people in, they accommodate the Black people who come first. It’s not for me, but I want to support and I am okay with that. Her music is by

this is something that comes from the Riot Grrl movement of asking women to move to the front so they can be safer. Obviously it’s optional, but I think it’s cool she’s doing it.

Starred because you watched theee episodes of an eight episode (at the time) show to decide whether you liked it, and that’s plenty of time. Don’t know why people are jumping down your throat.

Please stop fueling the Tammy Lawrence Attention Train. That Becky will wither and die so fast once people stop caring what bland, lifeless “outrage” she’s pretending to inflict on “liberals.”
