I would say feminizing isn't exactly the right word here - 'pandering', 'marketing campaign', 'cheapening', 'consumerization'...those might be better fits.

So, feminists hate it, misogynists hate it, does this mean we can just freaking stop the travesty that is the NFL's faux concern for breast cancer?
Hey Andrea, guess what? I hate all that pink washed Breast Cancer Awareness bullshit, I hate pink jerseys (not my biz if someone wants to wear one, they just bug me), I definitely hate YOU, but I LOVE FOOTBALL! So put that in your sexist, stereotyping, smug-ass pipe and smoke it! Guess what else, dummy? They only do…
I think they also wore pink at Obama's Secret Muslim Jamboree Benghazi 2013.
How is this not a crime?
First they shall do NO fucking harm! Jesus Christ almighty, come collect your assholes!
No Fiddler on the Roof? For shame.
Camelot! No one remembers this one- a young Vanessa Redgrave as Guinevere and Richard Harris as King Arthur. "It's May" is one of the best musical songs as is "What Do the Simple Folk Do." I'll be off singing "In short there's simply not a more congenial spot for happily ever aftering than here in Camelot!"
His hair is really unsettling...
When I told my partner chances were we could not have kids without help, and I'd decided I did not want to go down that path, I was crying when I said it. I was disappointed and frustrated. He hugged me and said, "Let's get married." I was too upset to answer and said I needed to think about it.
Ugh, Side Show Bob really needs to sit down.
I don't bitch and moan out loud to flight attendants who are just doing their job. I sit down and shut up, or at worst, complain at my husband. Whining at a flight attendant about a delay is like bitching out a bookstore employee because the book you want is out of print.
That is a pretty interesting take on the whole situation. Even though I am not white or a man, I had never thought about the white male privilege inherent in this guys behavior. I agree that this piece is still worth reading because hoax or no hoax, the majority reaction on the internet would have been very different…
I'll watch Real Housewives for hours on end just like everybody else, but let's be honest, here—what's reality TV but endless humiliation of women so distorted by editing as to be basically fictitious versions of themselves?
To be fair, clam dip is fucking gross.
Every year?
I wish we could reframe this whole discussion from "Maria Kang can't tell whether I am healthy or not," to "It's none of her fucking business." Never should people of any size feel that they need to explain their health or lack thereof to another person. I feel like we are tripping over ourselves to be like, "I'm…
Her behavior is not normal. Someone who's truly confident in themselves would not put other people down because he or she does not live up to her standards.
What I love about Kang is not that she is barking mad and saying the most ridiculously ignorant things ever (though that is pretty hilarious), it's that she's convinced that people are irritated because she's not explaining herself properly, and not that she's a giant asshole.
