But the whole purpose of the red carpet tradition is to parade around in your couture! You will not take this away from me. ;)

In fact they are published here on Jezebel too! It's about the only fun part of award shows for me.

Obviously the interviewers are in on this too...

nominations, i think the writer meant.

pretty sure "your mom" didn't send her a free dress.

not literally. only in the sense they are disproportionately snubbed, especially this year.

If these actresses do not like to be asked about their very expensive garments, then they should turn down all those free dresses. They are essentially walking advertisements for these fashion houses. That's just the way it works. Sorry, this is not sexist, with the exception of the undergarment comment.

I do not consider the Vagina Monologues to be trans-phobic in the least.* It includes monologues about vagina pet names, menstruation, sex, rape, war, love and self-love, even about men who love vaginas. At the time they were written, it was not mainstream at all to talk about your vagina or your experiences with your…

Cats are abandoned by cruel, ignorant and irresponsible pet owners. Should those people own cats? Absolutely not.

The bottom line is that the vast majority of veterinarians do not recommend this invasive surgery for your pet.Of course I have been scratched by cats over the course of my life, but that is a superficial injury compared to REMOVING MY JOINTS. I am sorry that people are so materialistic as to declaw their pets over…

It's as if people have never heard of alternative products to deter cat scratching. There are sprays and tape that make it very unpleasant for kitties to scratch. Not to mention that if you fill your house with pet appropriate cat scratchers that they will happily scratch at those instead. It's a behavior that can be…

And why exactly would it have not been possible for your family to have an "intact" pet? I simply don't get it. As I mentioned before, I am an antique dealer so I simply don't understand people who don't want their furniture scratched. I adore my collection but I know that a cat is more precious. Don't you understand…

I disagree that there is a huge risk that people will attempt do this surgery themselves. What trends do you know of to support this claim? If anything, I can see people opting not to adopt cats instead.

It's a great movie, one of the few that received nominations.

The Academy Awards, and movies these days in general, are garbage.

Right? I'm an antique dealer and collector and I have a sweet little kitty that has scratched up one couch and one prized mid century arm chair. I throw a blanket over the damage and cuddle away.

But what are the benefits of having the cats declawed? Aside from scratching, which is a behavioral problem that can be dealt with, why would we allow people to declaw cats? Most of them are affected by the practice, even psychologically. So why shouldn't we ban them?

This seems to be a good place as any to have this discussion though. Pop culture intersects with political issues. No one tells the writers of Jezebel to quit whining about identity politics when Lena Dunham experiences success. We can have our discussion here and now.

As a community, Latinos should strive to know each other and appreciate our differences. The problem more lies when we are stereotyped in popular culture as a whole.

You are quite incorrect about your definition of Latino culture.
