I’m a ride or die Schitt head and am so delighted that more people seem to be watching these days! 

It’s not alarmist...a video of a child playing in a pool in the very story referenced got over 400,000 views. It’s right there in the text. 

I dunno, I find this pedalisting of women a bit ehh and counterproductive. Some women suck and are awful because some humans suck and are awful. I’d rather get the perspective of a black man, or someone from a different culture than a Becky from the valley.

>“It used to be that when a 13-year-old wanted a binder for school, it meant a trip to Staples. For today’s tweens and teens who identify as gender-nonconforming or transgender, shopping for a binder may mean a compression undergarment worn to flatten breasts.”

The whole, “what if these kids damage themselves for a TREND?” angle has always been weird to me. In my experience, trans communities themselves are the biggest advocates for the health concerns surrounding binding and transition. When I first started, it was other trans people who warned me about binding for longer…

.... You’re explaining Inuit history and naming to an Inupiaq person.....

... Yeah, no. Funny that you would assume I wouldn’t be vocal? 

I hire people to work in Alaska, and you wouldn’t believe how often people ask if they need a passport to get there from the L48.

I mean, for me Botox is definitely self care. But I use it to prevent debilitating migraines, which is very different than using it cosmetically. So I definitely agree with you there.

Okay..... Botox is now “self-care”.

Gods damn it.

No.... it’s not. It’s a slur, that white people decided referred to our tribes and villages, based off of incorrect translations from other Native tribes.

Good. I am against the whole idea of Influencers as a profession.

See but this is to bind breasts, which is a cardinal sin. Men need to be able to look at breasts, otherwise what’s the point of breasts and the meat-scaffold they’re attached to?

Not that I have a horse in this race, but I was definitely a little surprised to see Eskimo used in this article. Although, as a Canadian, I think its a bit more relevant to me than someone from wherever Megan is from.

This is the same “liberal media” we’re always being warned is turning kids transgender, making being trans a trend. Realistically, there are still huge emotional and societal hurdles to transition. Bigots like TERFs and right-wing nutjobs get as much mainstream attention as people who are literally just trying to…

I mean, it’s definitly racist to call us Eskimos, so maybe instead you could use what we call ourselves? Inuit, Yupik, Inupiaq, Supiaq? (Also, if you don’t know which group name you should use, then you don’t know which group you’re talking about, and you shouldn’t use us as a joke for an article about cum).

So the same society that wants women to bind themselves to be skinny says binding is unhealthy, huh? 

Obviously this article was written to instigate a fight but I’m going to fall for it anyway and stand firm in my belief that LaCroix is actually good. Some of us want something that is very lightly flavored because it’s more refreshing and I don’t like the sweeter stuff. Also, I think the decline is probably heavily du…

It’s basically impossible for me to think about this particular celebrity couple without thinking of that old movie they made together:
