Why are you being purposefully thick that when the person responding to you said pimps, they were smearing sex workers? Rather than talking about, you know, pimps- men who traffic, exploit, and enslave women so they make the money from the sexualization of their bodies? They’ve existed since the beginning of time, in

As a historian of women in culture, I find that such an odd take. Do you not at all see the value in using history as a tool to understand how we’ve got where we are? No one asking you to do the research, but why wouldn’t especially matter in the era of #metoo and trump?

Hahaha. Haha. This article is a pile of hot garbage, and that’s being charitable.

If you don’t understand that a powerful man cheating on a woman, let alone sleeping with his work subordinates, has DEEP patriarchal and misogynist overtones- I don’t know why you even read this site. Is feminism an empty set to you?

Absolute rubbish. Male cheating is a deeply patriarchal and misogynistic act most of the time.

A. Man. Who. Abuses. Women. Is. Not. Feminist.

Because he sets himself up in the culture as a male feminist icon? Because powerful male cheating on a woman is an inherently patriarchal and misogynist act? Like, what is so hard to understand about this?

The fact that you so completely and obtusely overlook the MASSIVE patriarchal and misogynist overtones of heterosexual male on female infidelity, like several other people here, is, frankly, astounding.

Nooo, Smails was stuffy old money. Czervik was a nouveau riche vulgarian. That was the whole point. Trump is 1000% Czervik.

Armenians were in some of the worst concentration camps leading to genocide, decades before the Nazis, before the term was well established. In fact it was coined by the British in colonial Africa. You should probably know history before you try to shame people for no reason. I’m a historian.

Right, I’m a historian and you’re wrong.

How absolutely naive and foolish, mate.  Do you understand a fascist takeover of a country? Let’s say you were Jewish, or gay, in 1930s Germany. Trying to figure out if you would flee with your family or not. Let’s say you were living in Chile under Pinochet, or a hundred other examples. Let’s say you’re a Muslim, or

Oh, honey. They said an entire bottle of wine, not an entire bottle of whiskey. If we all got help every time we drank a bottle of wine, there would be no economy left.

I mean, he would obviously just lie. He would also say he’s never raped anyone, or committed fraud, or any of the thousands of horrible things he’s done. I don’t think “asking for an honest answer” is a tack to ever take with such a person...

Ha! Someone on here posted before the election about being at college with Trump, Jr., and Trump showing up to the dorms, slapping him in the face, calling him names, and telling him to go put a suit on. In front of his floormates. It was quite the read. I am 100% sure that he was Trump as evil authoritarian father

Uh, not writing a research paper with citations, dear. I’m saying I’ve heard it for years from both online gossip sources and people I know who work in Hollywood, so to pull some faux-outrage “oh, so you think every man who dresses well is GAY? Indiana homophobe!” is both lame as hell, and super out of the loop. It’s

Take it easy with that strawman throwing homophobia and “Indiana” at others. It is widely reported/gossiped about/”known” depending upon who you ask in Hollywood that he is gay.

You people are such absolute fools. You’re the ones fixated on Hillary, not the left, the moderates, or the majority of Americans who did not vote for Trump. Talking about Hillary is the past. The present is the crisis of a mentally ill madman taking fascist power of the US. It’s about HIM now and what HE will do, not

That’s because literally everything he does is trash. What are you not getting? This is an unprecedented crisis and an unprecedented bad actor, sepearate from the normal “us versus them”, “I hate Republicans” whining you seem to be equating it with.

It’s too bad you people have so much trouble FOCUSING on what is at hand. TRY.
