I guess his logic only applies to metaphorical boundaries, not actual, physical, legal boundaries that can be found on any map.

Is because...

"when people push boundaries too far, it is not because they are strong but because they are weak."

a) I think you mean secretary of state, not security :P

And don't even get him started on that weak, ineffectual Moose and Squirrel.

Yes! Thank you for justifying my love of WNTW.... It's the only fashion-y show I find remotely interesting. Mainly because I can apply "the rules" when I, with my real, imperfect body, am out actually shopping for clothes.
I went with their recommendations, got a purple cotton blazer, ad I've never failed to look

i've hardly ever watched the american version with stacy and clinton but the original british one is great for that too. they're excellent at explaining to people that it's not just about fat or thin, there are so many different body types and it's amazing how clueless people are about what clothes flatter them. WNTW

You, and everyone he went to school with.

Oh, PLEASE. Like we can't do BOTH. IT'S CALLED STAR TREK: VOYAGER and also the FUTURE. SPACE FEMINISM, LADIES, FEMINISM IN SPACE. WOMEN GET TO WEAR SHINY SILVER JUMPSUITS ALL DAY WHILE DRIVING SPACESHIPS AND AIN'T NOTHING ANY MAN OR MALE ALIEN CAN DO ABOUT IT. GET WITH IT, LANA.

At this point, I think people need to stop asking celebrities about feminism because you're rarely going to hear an intelligent response from them.

That's why I always thought What Not To Wear is far better for fashion and learning how to dress. Stacy and Clinton, besides being fabulous, were always very body positive and all about encouraging plus sized guests to dress for their body, insisted everyone could look good at any size, and actually showed why certain

I will say, Project Runway has its faults, but I can remember multiple contestants getting BLASTED by judges and especially Tim Gunn for acting as though dressing bigger-than-a-size-2-women is some impossible feat.

Has it occurred to you that she may be showing up wearing less attractive dresses because she doesn't have many options to choose from?

I think the event was filmed as very dark up until the fist pump. Her fear was very real as was her disgust. It was also very physical. The way it was filmed really highlighted the difference in their strength along with how claustrophobic the apartment became. She was trying to get away but he kept pushing her

Not sure if trolling or just dumb.

100% agreed that he gets the benefit of the doubt here. the way i read that scene (granted i haven't seen the whole episode yet), was as a feminist acting out why #notallmen is bullshit. because even he, a feminist man who recognizes rape culture, could be that man who ends up date-raping his friend. because all men

Yes. Good for him. I believe that he gets it. That there is a complicated power dynamic between men and women and patriarchy makes it toxic. Toxic for how men think about themselves and their relationships to women. Toxic for how women think about themselves and their relationships to men. There is a little that

His willingness to call out himself and other men on this type of bullshit is the A-number one reason I love him.

Yeah, the quintessential rape apology narrative is that, once it gets going, the woman is overcome by the virility of her attacker and enjoys the rape, or that a little bit of force was necessary to overcome some token resistance (Rhett Butler, Stanley Kowalski). Those rape apology scenes end up affirming the man's

I thought it was a middle finger to that trope of woman-pretends-to-resist-but-secretly-loves-it.
