Maybe some, but where it tends to really show itself most clearly, down to some of the exact same vocabulary, is in the machismo culture of rural parts of places like Italy, Spain, Latin America, etc. (Not so) fun fact: our word “virtuous” is essentially derived from “virtus,” the Roman concept of masculinity.

I took a whole seminar on “Roman Sexuality” in college (still have a pretty great textbook) and there is cunnilingus (which, of course, is the Latin word for performing oral sex on a woman) on the walls of a brothel in Pompeii. Interestingly there were different verbs for the active and passive roles of most sex acts,…

Agree with others that the song and video are both pretty boring. Also, for something so obviously wanting to signal “SEXY!!!” I left the video more flaccid than I started. Other than those taped boob close ups and her sitting around in a man’s suit you don’t really get to see her body. It felt like an online dating…

Fair, I’d just assumed since they were everywhere in Stockholm.

I was delighted to find out that “kebab pizza” (which is what I saw it called - I think of Turkish pizza as lahmacun) is the Swede’s dirty junk food to eat hungover or drunk. One admitted to me, “it’s like our Taco Bell.”

Or kardemummabulla. It’s actually rather funny, since last time I went back to New York there are now Swedish coffee chains on every corner, e.g. “Fika “ and “Joe and the Juice.”

I don’t think it has anything to do with centrism, which is about where you are on the political spectrum (and sometimes a shorthand for actually having sat through an economics class). I think I’m a centrist, but thought this was generally pretty funny. It’s about being spineless, milquetoast, and having no…

“comedian was worst since Imus insulted Clinton’s”

Neither Billy Elliot nor his dad pronounce the T, which is my only point of reference.

Right, I’m just glad the Gal Gadot Wonder Woman wasn’t sexualized at all. /s

While I don’t have an Excel with the gender of every Western Hemisphere vice president, I think you’re probably forgetting the Caribbean and how, unlike the Latin American mainland, many of those countries are black majority. Also, there’s the Guyanas which have large black populations along with a lot South Asians…

“Of course, we all know the heartbreaking story that follows...”

It literally does.

Sure, whatever.

I was thinking about the Iggy Azalea comparison the other day too. It’s so obvious this woman is going to be totally forgotten in two years when the novelty of her awful boob job wears off. I’m ready for Jezebel to start posting weekly articles on some other no-talent, stat.

Sick burn.

I stopped reading at “At the same time that Santa Fe and Taos undergo a massive and perhaps irreversible gentrification process.” FFS, Taos is a goddamned ski resort and has been an artist colony since 1899. Georgia O’Keeffe moved to Santa Fe in 1984. Both these places were gentrified before this person was even born.…

While I don’t question the ultimate point, isn’t it a bit of an unfair question to ask if you’re smarter than the person next you at Arizona State? http://www.phoenixnewtimes.com/news/10-times-arizona-state-university-got-dissed-in-pop-culture-8240630

Thankfully I could dismiss your opinion as soon as you said “Cali,” and don’t even have to get to how fucking stupid it is.
