I did a BDSM scene with the man mentioned in your links, and I 100% believe her (although I believe any woman who speaks out; it’s a very scary position to be in). While he did not rape me, he did not maintain my boundaries in the slightest and I had to kick him out of where we were playing. And I thought, as we all…

“The amazing thing is it’s election season. This could cost the president the election. He put women and girls first, this could negatively affect him, but this shows he cares more about women than losing people’s votes.”

Egypt banned it ages ago but 94% of women there have undergone the procedure. To say Africa is decades behind when it comes to women’s health and gender attitudes is the understatement of the century. Without getting too specific, I work at the United Nations and as a regional group they oppose any language that would…

I love you too, Nancy. Mostly because you are my sister but also you aight.

Losing Millihelen is the Deepest Cut of all.

I STILL GET TO HANG OUT WITH JANE AND JANE GETS TO ABSORB MY ADORATION SO TRULY THERE ARE NO LOSERS.

This news is trash. This blog is not.

My rage at the loss of Millihelen has started to mellow a bit, but hot DAMN! I’m still mad. As others have said, this was a welcoming, non-judgy little part of the Internet for Laydeeeez, full of insightful commenters bringing their own real world experience. I met Don’tBeSuchaBoobPunchTina, my fellow fortysomething…

thank you for all of your hard work and making this site really fun. i love you, jane!

First time commentor, long time follower of Jane Marie. I am beyond upset about the transition occurring at Jezebel. It breaks my heart that this amazing, inspiring, supportive community is being broken up. I will follow you to the toast and beyond.

I am really sorry. I loved millihelen, and was in the process of crafting a piece for it, about what it’s like to be over 50 discovering makeup (mostly fun but a little strange, sort of like discovering makeup at any other age). I specifically liked that your target audience wasn’t the usual “beauty tips and…

Sometimes i forget what a blessing it is to fucking live in a cool ass place like Seattle.

More filler talk please, Jane.

As someone who has read you for years (I remember your wedding photos!), I wish you the best in this new stage of your life.

fuck yeah, jane! you make the best faces!

Weirdly, my obgyn’s office pushes botox. They have signs up in the office and I get periodic emails from them about it.

OMG SAME! I thought that scene was mega-rapey. It reminded me of those old movies where a dude would like, forcefully kiss a woman who didn’t want it but after she’d be “seduced” into doing whatever. Blech.

I was excited to see what they would do with Monica Bellucci and it was to provide some key information, have sex with Bond, and make way for a younger woman. I thought the scene came off as rapey, Bellucci actively hated Bond until her dress came off.

I thought this season of Project Runway had an inordinate amount of mediocre-to-shoddy designers. Frankly, I was amazed that the majority of them lasted as long as they did. They should probably go back to having Tim in on the auditions.

I vote delusion. I think the comparison between Facilitated Communication and Ouija board is apt. I remember playing with those as a teen. It can be easy to convince yourself that you’re not the one answering the questions with the planchette if you’re really invested in that whole “communicating with the dead” thing.
