I don't even know who Juan Pablo is.

I was hoping he was asking a real question, but apparently he was hoping for a reason to bitch about feminists always winning the argument! About uncomfortable shoes and photos! I guess.

Not necessarily. I prefer to judge people based on themselves, not what they put on their wall. Maybe he has an academic interest in historically significant murderers? Maybe he really really likes the song Helter Skelter?

I would think he has questionable advice in wall hangings, sure, but no, not the second one. That is quite the leap of logic, and one that makes me feel like you are prone to extremist assumptions. (And not because of any picture you displayed, but because of actual words that have come from you.)

Admiring a movie star photo does not put forth the pretense that you want to live the same lifestyle as they.

Admiring the visual aspect of something doesn't mean one wishes to live and breathe it. Hanging a picture is not the same as having the era's attitude toward gender/politics/whatever.

Do you normally go around accosting randoms who have nothing to do with a case for proof? He was found guilty. There was some sort of proof. No, none of us have it. None of us were associated with the case. You don't have proof he's innocent (which considering he has been found guilty already, the burden of proof…

It's a "thing" because there are still anti-gay hate crimes and strong anti-gay sentiment throughout the world. It's good to be reminded that there are queer people everywhere and in all walks of life.

This entire thread is like "lol, opinion? ;) Please... OPINION! ;)" and I am sitting here amazed that there are people (theoretically adults?) who actually seem to be getting defensive over the hot-guy-they-will-never-bang pecking order.

Ah, I'm not arguing that it ISN'T common in Korea, just that you framing it as knowing that it's common because of your two years living there is disingenuous. Just link an article or some data and it'll come off less shady. Anecdotal "data" when it comes to observing a foreign country/people as an outsider is almost…

Man, you could at least do some cursory research before mouthing off. From Wikipedia:

Then nearly every tattoo would be a disaster, because most tattoo artists despise the shit they get asked to tattoo!

It's a part of the culture: skinny women are told they have more to fear than heavier women. And that it's a "compliment" - I'm not saying overweight women don't have to worry about rape, or that they don't get raped, I'm saying that skinny women are taught that all eyes are on them (because their beauty is valuable)…

I know everyone is bitching and moaning about UGH PLEASE THAT'S NOT THE POINT! SKINNY BITCHES GET OUT YOU HAVE THE REST OF THE WORLD TO VALIDATE YOU!

She's dead because of her uterus shooting up into her chest cavity and enveloping her heart, I'd wager. Though really, what's with the more recent internet trend of women expressing delight over cute things (and sometimes sexy things) by screeching about their reproductive organs? It sorta freaks me out, no lie.

You say, "I'm sorry, but you have [the window/the aisle] and your own arm rest. I am stuck in the middle seat, so I would appreciate use of both armrests."

Then we can all laugh when it comes out that he really is gay. Until then: still think it's kinda gross.

Right, and using a term associated with gay people as a way to mock others doesn't sit right with me, no matter how you frame it. I know about the history of the term and why people associate it with strongly anti-gay men, it's just uncomfortable seeing homosexuality reduced to an insult yet again.

I think we should all be able to have no beef with Miley calling herself a feminist. Good for her. What I think makes her statement obnoxious is her lauding herself as "one of the biggest in the world" - no. Just no.

Speaking personally, it confuses my girlfriend - English is her third language, after French and Cantonese.
