I miss Mark :(

Jezebel: we’re really horny and we care deeply about racism.

Every time I accidentally star a months or years-old post, I have a sudden guilt about it. God knows I get my fair share. The worst are not the weird angry responses, it’s the few times people wrote thoughtful replies to a very old post of mine, and I'm like.... But no one will see that, dude.

Speak for yourself; notifications remind me I’m alive.

When I first moved to Florida, I was tickled by all the “Shalom Y’all” signs.

I think there seems to be a certain homogeneity among the authors now. They all seem to be kind of a bland soup of copy paste from other sites with little original to say about it. No one has really distinguished themselves as humorous, or serious, or insightful.

I do agree it has seemed less focused as of late, and frankly, boring? I don’t know if I blame that on lack of singular vision, or a lot of new writers who haven’t completely found their voice.

Yes -and part of me understand their reasoning especially in context to this article; proclaiming yourself directly as a feminist site opens you up immensely to all sorts of criticism and backlash. This is an article about someone talking about the problems of editing a feminist blog but technically, they don’t…

Sometimes. I think a sustained general consensus has to emerge over time concerning what the major issues at least, but after that is agreed upon you can gain traction politically.

i’ve learned so much from the commenters here, in both a “thank you for the knowlege!” way and creating my own opinions on things. It’s nice to know that everyone is a constantly evolving person, always changing and learning. No one is a finished piece at any one point in their life.

Of course it’s always easier to see the complexity in our own identities and thoughts while simultaneously simplifying and categorizing those of others, but I guess I’m not clear on how Jia’s positioning herself wrt to the notion that stating what type of feminist you are not is insufficient to indicate what kind of…

Guess I’ll get slammed too then, because I loved this. Some paragraphs are simply dazzling. It may be the best piece I’ve read this year.

I always thought it was a celebrity gossip site for people who thought they were too good to read celebrity gossip sites.

I thought the other Big Reason for this film is that now Richard Gere is not alone among Hollywood royalty for allegedly getting an animal stuck in his butt.

This article is really myopic, IMO. Discussion is valuable, and simply discussing these things regularly has changed the course of public discourse. Politics moves slowly by design. You can’t go from unequal pay to paid maternal and paternal leave in one cycle. That’s not realistic. But to discount the value of…

I loved it too. Even if I didn’t agree with all of it. It was a subtle, thorough and very analytical piece that I wish we saw more often. I wish I had more time to sit down and really write a proper comment about it. It’s not the first time Jia has written a piece that made me react this way either and it’s why she…

I will say this: I’ve been a long time commenter and reader of Jalopnik & Deadspin that occasionally visits Jezebel. Your group’s writing has definitely influenced my views on gender equality, feminism and the institutional marginalization of women.

I loved this. I loved ALL of this. I know I’m going to get slammed for kissing your ass Jia, but I don’t care. This is the piece I’ve wanted to read from a Jezebel EIC for a long time. The promotion has changed you for the better.

First they came for the thinskinned assholes who made dumbass comments and then whined when people called him on his shit on twitter, and i did not speak up because I was not a thinskinned asshole who made dumbass comments and then whined when people called me on my shit on twitter....

You’re my hero, Anna.
