“When we find ourselves believing that killing a man makes us more of a man, but loving a man makes us less of a man, it’s probably time to re-examine our criteria for manhood.” —Jay Smooth

Prepare yourself for Hillary supporters that are indistinguishable from Trump supporters in their inability to admit their candidate was/is an asshole.

Is there? I’ve experienced everything from swats with hands to being punched and pistol whipped. The time my dad beat me for letting the dog in the house didn’t really feel any different emotionally than the time he punched me in the head a few times for trying to walk away from him. I was mostly puzzled when he…

Remember how a white person told you that racism is in your head, or that white people are now discriminated against more than black people or brought up black on black crime to derail a conversation about police brutality? Okay, well black women hear all of that, plus we get to hear black men recycle those same lame…

Will never come remotely close to the lifetime you force girls into women to spend looking in the mirror and wondering if today’s the day they can go 24 hours without an assault, a catcall, a talking over, an “accidental” grope, to move about fully and freely, to not be told to “smile for me...”

“So de white man throw down de load and tell de nigger man tuh pick it up. He pick it up because he have to, but he don’t tote it. He hand it to his womenfolks. De nigger woman is de mule uh de world so fur as Ah can see.”-Their Eyes Were Watching God.

It always interesting that Americans will put the onus of responsibility for ISIS/Al Qaeda/Taliban/mujahedeen back on the Islamic community for them to clean up and fix. It ignores the reality that terrorism is an inevitable by-product of empire building. Of course then we would have to re-examine American…

The problem with Christianity and Islam—and basically all religions—is that the violence, subjugation, “othering,” homophobia, sexism, etc. is codified in religious texts.

So he was caught in the act and his sperm matches but his defense was supposed to be “but her mom is a greedy bitch”? So, the Polanski gambit.

given the crime, stoning feels appropriate.

There is no misogyny in the ideals that P!nk put forth in her tweet. Saying that she has respect for woman who put there brains and bronze to get their $ is a better way of life than selling your ass.

But this video came out when Paris Hilton, Lindsay Lohan, Jessica Simpson et al were all over the media, and this was commentary on that period in American pop culture. Maybe you don’t remember Paris Hilton’s completely fake-but-used-for-all-filming “sexy baby voice” and Jessica Simpson, who went on to make a literal…

The sheer success of the fake products they peddle online says otherwise. The sold out lip kits, “waist trainers” etc say otherwise, as does the popular aesthetic changing to a Kardashianized version in the US.

But you realize she’s not complaining about other girls who just LOOK different than she does, right? She’s saying she doesn’t want to be a girl who derives all of her self-worth from material things or men’s approval. Maybe it’s an LA thing, but I see women all the time who might as well be wearing a T-shirt that…

Part of it is also that she’s well...right?

What’s wrong with making fun of idiots like the Kardashians?

I’m going to go back to ignoring Lindsay Lohan. But I’ll leave this here, possibly the last, best picture taken of her:

My guess Spike doesn’t know what pansexual is. He is a problem and a half when it comes to women.

I got a lot of whuppings as a child. If anything it made me angrier and also kind of got me to think that inflicting pain on someone was a means to show my displeasure with them. So I became violent. But what I saw was violence. My grandma would whup me for something and then later that day, my dad would too or maybe…
