Something I appreciated about Wurtzel, and she specifically covered in “Bitch”, was she acknowledged that white, and conventionally beautiful, women get more attention and sympathy when it comes to mental illness. The other Wurtzel piece posted here a couple of weeks ago covered this, but people tend to have time for…

Yeah, but I think the average age of a Jezebel writer is about double that, at which point there’s no cute excuse for being unrepentantly poor at your job and stubbornly refusing to improve.

U must be new, because it is well know that they don’t  have proof readers. 

This is the 3rd Jez article I’ve read TODAY with errors...

There’s a significant error in your post that is RIGHT THERE IN THE IG CAPTION - this is the founder’s SISTER, not the founder himself, whose opinions (and unsavory way she expresses them) he does not necessarily share.

Do you mean cable-access? That’s not the same thing as cable TV. YouTube is somewhat analogous to cable access than to cable TV, but cable access celebrities weren’t really a thing.

You really think SWERFs are outing porn stars? These seem like deranged fans.

I don’t understand why wikipedia is singled out? Wikipedia and imdb know how to get their sites at the top of the search results, but when I googled the names in this article using the search terms [porn perfomer name] real name, I got tons of results from all sorts of sites. Quora, answers.com, reddit, tumblr, even…

Yet another former Disney kid trying real hard to be provocative. 🙄

I am decidedly not a Hillary fan, but this is a very uncharitable take on what she has said here. 

I’ve seen some people make that arrangement in comment sections and on Tumblr before.

What on earth. This woman can’t do anything right. I’m sorry her honesty is not pretty enough for you. (pretty enough!!!!! How did you end this piece saying that!) 

he punches everywhere and you only dont like it when hes punching the direction you dont like

You’re such a bad faith piece of shit. Do you honestly think people being criticized is “silencing” them? Or is it more likely that you find any criticism of “anti-PC” behavior (in other words, racist, bigoted bullshit) as intolerable and you believe you should be free from consequences of your backwards ass views?

that you...

Exactly.

Do people now discount Brokeback because it had straight, bankable actors in the lead?

The thing is she didn’t take a job away from a trans actor. Without her the film didn’t get made. Not one trans actor was helped. In fact it just got a bit harder to make a film like Rub and Tug

Does anyone even remember 1999's “Boys Don’t Cry”? Hilary Swank won the Oscar for best actress. It was one of the best reviewed movies that year. So I don’t see why Scarlett shouldn’t be given a chance.

So you made a film that was about transgender issues drop the highest paid actress in Hollywood to make sure that it gets either dropped or flops?

Is it? Or do you not know what “acting” is?

It’s okay for actors to do their jobs. In fact, we used to celebrate and reward actors and actresses for taking on difficult roles that required them to learn to depict the world through someone else’s eyes. That’s what acting is. It’s literally their job.

Typecasting, like…
