She's actually super short. I saw her at Thirsty Crow in Silverlake one early evening and she is tiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiny like I could not believe her neck actually supported her head.

I see you, I hear you. And they ghosted me a while back for pointing out that this is sure to be an exciting collection of white women's feminism. (Did you notice today's post is "W as in Walker, Kara"? Like Jezebel hasn't contributed to precisely what Kara Walker's artwork is about...)

Seriously? Given Jezebel's history with black women?

Seriously? Die Antwoord? Please do some research on that in the African blogosphere before you employ them to specify "ways not to have a racist party"... I'm not being nasty about this, I genuinely think you may not know how their racialized appropriations are viewed by black and coloured South Africans...

Or, given Miley's general trends lately, is this just a delightful little letter from one oblivious white person who doesn't realize that that the other white person is simply misappropriating a cultural dialect not her own?

Yup. You probably won't even see this comment because I was recently ghosted by Jezebel for posting obvious comments about their own policies regarding 'commenting/blogging while brown' (in response to their own content matter).

They actually sharpen the razor blades when they get dull. If that helps? I dunno...

Well, it's already more diverse than Girls in its first iteration, so..

There are transwomen who ride with the OPC here in LA. The Times focused on what they wanted to, so check out the OPC in other spaces before you decide what we/they conflate (and remember that it is a large group, with many folks still learning the ropes of feminisms).

Actually, no. There is a Somali language with a number of varying dialects. Arabic is the other most widely spoken language, and the country's second language.

I am a Sophia from the long-ago days where that was a "weird" name, an "old" name, a "unique" name... I miss those days. It's terrifying that half of my female students are likely to be Sophias in 18 years.

She was also a devoted racist. I'll celebrate later.

I think I just came.

Yup. How typical.

I think I'll come up to SF just to help out with this conversation.

Seems my comment got dismissed. Quelle surprise.

I expect you all get ready for West Coast women of colour who demand answers regarding Schwyzer and Jezebel's related history of silencing WOC and allies in articles and comments. See you in LA.

Can Jezebel please stop pretending to care about women of colour? We still have NO ACKNOWLEDGEMENT of your history of sicking Hugo Schwyzer on us, despite the myriad of WOC and allies complaints about his explicit racism. Fuck that.

I understand this completely, I do. But it is also a moment of privilege-checking (which you seem amenable to, given how you phrased your question in the first place) - imagine what it's like to be constantly asked questions by folks who haven't done the work for themselves first. First rule of being an ally - do the…

It's not wrong to be curious but do you not have google? Asking "others" 20 questions to sate your curiousity is actually pretty draining for folks that happen to be the other in that scenario. Google is a good place to start.
