Personal anecdote as counterpoint: the time that kind of mediocrity line was said to me was by an emotionally abusive asshole who thought that love meant drama and difficulty.

TL;DR She picked Bryan after sending Peter and Eric home before either proposed (usually the Bachelorette gets two proposals). Bryan’s red flag is his Mom and smooth talk, Peter’s red flag is his inability to commit, and Rachel only had eyes for white guys so Eric was out.

Agreed. While Peter is super beautiful, he was so boring.

He would’ve strung her along. She chose for herself.

Nope, it’s not. I never said that, or it’s opposite. I said it’s NOT about her whiteness, it’s about her feeling entitled. Black people, in my experience, usually welcome all sorts of people. BUT THEN, those guests plant flags, declare war on the neighborhood culture, start calling the city, complaining about…

Ha! Bryan reminds me of Joey Fatone.

I am biracial and I really appreciated this piece. She is not attacking biracial people, she is (gently) critiquing the idea of white womanhood as aspirational across brown cultures.

Sorry - is this a contest called ‘who has it worse?’ What the fuck is this?

Happy Endings had my favorite black man/white woman relationship ever.

lol stfu ignorant

Second, to say that Asian men owe it to Asian women to marry them (which is the basic gist of this article) is just plain ridiculous.

So DeMario says he was too drunk to consent, and Corinne says she was too drunk to consent.

Its literally his lawyers entire job to present the best defense he possibly can. He can be disbarred otherwise.

On election day this week, I found out that I got an interview with Boeing for a paid internship this summer. I was elated. It is literally the path to my dream job. I was prepared to get smashingly drunk that night to celebrate getting an interview opportunity and seeing the first woman President. We bought champagne…

You’re one of the good ones. My partner who is not jewish went on amazon while I bawled and bought himself a star necklace to wear so I wouldn’t feel alone. We live somewhere where I know only one other jewish person. Thank you. We need more men like you and we all should be eager to accept your support.

It’s fun and unifying to have a mega-talented entertainer with the broad appeal of Beyonce. She’s our common ground. Our Breakfast at Tiffany’s, if you will! Wanting to be part of something as grand and widespread as Beyonce fandom is easy and completely understandable.

Can I have that dress plz. Also, no shade to the Dixie Chicks, I’ve always had a soft spot for them, but it seems like performing live next to Beyoncé was a bad idea. They seem like a dive bar band next to her vocals and show-womanship.

I wouldn’t wish a dead dog on my worst enemy, and that includes Mike Pence. I’m glad his furbabybeagle had a long life and, unlike American women, was probably treated very respectfully by Pence.
