I actually got a polite catcall last night. I was wearing my kittycat CowCow dress, going in to Walgreens to get a snack at midnight. A guy calls across the parking lot: “I like your dress.” And by his tone of voice, I could tell he actually meant my dress and not my body. I said thank you and we both went on with our…

Yeah, a friend who worked on a movie set with Freeman said he was a real dick, altho nothing about harassment of women. Since then I’ve been Meh on the Morgan. But knowing that, the harassment doesn’t surprise me.

Thank you for this. Also the talk of bullying and social media. There is no evidence that this shooter was bullied. There is evidence that he was harassing a girl who told him no. But will there be roundtable discussions and press conferences about toxic masculinity? My crystal ball says No.

Eureka did deliberately push The Vixen’s buttons in their first fight in Untucked, so she’s not completely innocent here. But Vixen let her dislike of Eureka impact her own performance. Vixen seemed so concentrated on what Eureka was doing to annoy her that she was sabotaging her own performance. Her anger at Eureka…

I don’t feel great saying this but I’m a little glad the Vixen is gone. From what I’ve seen on the show, when she’s hurt, she lashes out at others in anger, instead of admitting she’s hurt. I understand. Maybe it wasn’t always safe for her to be vulnerable. Anger feels powerful; hurt canfeel powerless. She mistakes…

The hypocrisy is what bothers me about the Vixen. She presents herself as a “This is who I am, take me or leave me.” That’s fine. Admirable, even. But when Eureka or other girls behave in a way she doesn’t like, she expects them to change it. She is not the arbiter of how people should behave, particularly if she…

Why should sex be only for the young? You might not have it as often when you’re older, but I’ll wager older folks have better sex than younger ones because we’ve learned who we are and what we like.

Watch Grace and Frankie on Netflix. There is a whole storyline about their vibrators for older women. Hell yeah!

I don’t necessarily agree. I chose not to be a mommy to kids of my own. I certainly don’t want to be a mommy to the kids of the guy I’m dating. My worry about dating a guy with kids is that he will think “Oh, women naturally love taking care of kids. When I have the kids I won’t have to do anything.” Unh-unh, chief.

Yeah, somehow all those lonely women who don’t find intimacy or sex are just called “Crazy Cat Ladies” and laughed at by society at large. Yet, they don’t drive cars into groups of innocent bystanders.

I was just thinking that. Any director who asks you to cut off your supply of oxygen for the sake of a fucking movie does not give two shits about you. And any director who needs his actors to actually be choked in order to act the scene is a fucking hack.

Because lowering teen pregnancy rates and STD transmission isn’t the goal. Making sure sluts keep their legs closed is.

Throughout history, people have become minorities in their own homelands through physical invasion. Happens all the damn time. She should be happy that wholescale war and genocide aren’t part of the equation for white folks in North America.

So maybe the point is that the US should make these concessions easier for more working women. This is classic “We can’t be happy she got it because not everyone has it.”

WHEN ARE MEN TOLD TO DRESS CONSERVATIVELY TO AVOID HARASSMENT AND ASSAULT? Your point would be understandable if harassment were distributed equally. Surprise, it’s not. Men don’t have to worry if they’re “showing too much skin” and women will verbally or physically assault them. We’re telling you to fucking knock it…

Chuck Tingle is a goddamn American hero and should be treated as such.

Well, women certainly know nothing about that. /sarcasm

That’s really interesting, and contrary to what I would have thought. Can you share those studies with me?

As someone who works in administration in higher ed STEM, I can assure you there was no need to do a study on this. The number of times I have had male faculty assume they knew how to do my job better than I did would be laughable if it weren’t so depressing. I’m sure if you asked them they would say they respect my…

He’s 62, hardly a doddering old man who can’t remember not to say the N word.
