It also seems possible that someone could just make the term out without having previously heard it. I mean, its not a very complicated term - it makes sense that you and your white friends would think, “He’s a boy I only fuck - he’s a fuckboy.”

My then 15 year old had his new girlfriend over to the house. I’d only met her a couple of times. I was cooking in the kitchen and they were at the table playing a boardgame. He would things like “want me to make some Crystal Lite?” and she’d be like “whatever you want.” He’d ask what flavour, “whatever you want. I…

But I have come to see that humility is a far more important attribute in a relationship than pathological individuality. In order to demand anything from anyone, you’ll have to be willing to scrutinize yourself too.

Does anyone actually still think that tattoos make them cool?! I mean, lots of people are proud of their tattoos, but I’ve never seen anyone act like someone without tattoos is uncool.

Bravo! You said it so perfectly. Carrying your story through blood and muscle and bone so proudly should be a clarion call for those wanting to define their own individuality through such temporal means. How sad and tiresome to hear one more essay on justification of ink on skin as a sign of defiance, when it is no…

I wouldn’t get a tattoo related to issues of commitment (I can’t commit to a piercing so a tatto is definitely not my thing), but the author actually says:

Huh, my mom went with “We need to do lots of research first to make sure it’s healthy and safe. We could talk to people who have tattoos to see what they feel about having it done. I want to go with you when you get it done, to make sure the person doing it is doing everything right. Maybe we can watch them tattoo…

I’ll never forget the ex-boyfriend who excitedly told me he’d seen an instructional video on the internet where someone had trained away their gag reflex and thought it could work for me. He then proceeded to show me a clip of a woman hooked up to a machine that operated thusly: the more she deep-throated a dildo, the…

Sometimes it kind of seems like the writers saying “no homo.” Like, they want to indicate that they do not find this person attractive... but other people seem to for some reason. I really wish there was a neutral area between being slightly insulting and fawning over the person.

I wonder how many watchlists you end up on if you start researching your state/country’s necrophilia laws?

“Honestly officer it was for research purposes...”

Yeah, I’m on the continuous pill so no ovulating and no periods at all, so good.

Agreed. She knew/knows her brand— I mean, it’s not like Gawker called her up to talk about anything else but that from the get-go? I support her for naming and rebranding her truth, but let’s be honest about things, Ms. Steffans.

I think you answered the question in a much clearer way than she did!! That's exactly that.

I agree. Merchandising derives from the brand, they are not separate, it’s basic marketing. It may not be who you are but its part of your brand. As a former marketer, when I read this, I was like “what the hell is she talking about?”. I feel like she doesn’t want to be associated with her past anymore and she’s…

Right? It was weirdly defensive, and in some ways very contradictory? It would swing wildly to “that’s not me, that’s not how I am when I’m not working,” to “why in 2015 are we having this conversation, I can sleep with whoever I want.”
