Thank you. I’ve been saying this for six goddamned years now. Politicians are not your boyfriends or your girlfriends. You do not need to love them. You need to vote for them so evil shit like this cannot and does not happen.

I sometimes have to wonder if Jezebel is a front for a right wing propaganda blog with how dangerously misinformed and poorly researched some of these blogs are. Please stick to celebrity gossip if your takeaway from this situation is to not vote and passively allow fascists to take power.

This is Jezebel’s MO and has been for a while. I think they ran out of money to hire anyone who isn’t totally clueless.

True. But Cynthia Nixon never had a chance. She was the wrong choice to unseat him in the primaries. Progressives aren’t the majority of the party, and the majority of democrats weren’t going to vote for someone who’s never held office, not against someone like Cuomo where voters at least know exactly what they’re…

Or maybe we dont need another fuckin’ actor running the government.

Honestly this is probably not a popular opinion around these parts, but hey...the sexual revolution cut both ways. We got increased freedom of choice not to marry, to remain childfree if we wish, to have multiple partners if we wish etc...and so did men. Of course, given the choice and absent societal pressure to marry…

I think it’s the most stigmatized for several reasons.

My friend has BPD. She is often hard to like. She blames everything in her life on the disorder. She won’t work because she believes everything should be given to sufferers of BPD. She survives off government help. She has also conned many of our mutual friends into giving her gifts and money. You only hear from her…

He is right but I believe what her fans were saying is that dating a guy whose BPD isn’t cured yet will cause HER unhappiness. Its her they are concerned for. BPD is heavily stigmatised precisely because those who have it seem like the most loving and vulnerable guys until abandonment fears (real or imagined) kick in.…

He’s a racist who talks about “white genocide.” He believes his semen can’t transmit STDs. He doesn’t believe date rape is a thing. He wanted to hire private investigators to stalk Anita Sarkeesian and Zoe Quinn. He wrote a book called “Gorilla Mindset,” which is just hilarious. Dude was charged with rape once. He’s…

jesus, someboy likes ColorTooth

And what’s wrong with playing devil’s advocate,generally speaking? It gives an opportunity for actual discussion instead of a circle jerk of agreement.

“The Times Up movement has prompted me to pause and reflect upon some of my past behavior and why it was inappropriate. After careful consideration I have decided that it would be best that I do not present the Academy Award for best actress and instead take time to listen and learn about the importance of respect and…

Even without all of those issues, everything I said stands. The current criminal justice system is fundamentally incapable of being the primary source of justice for victims of sexual violence.

Come on, that’s not totally fair. If you don’t take a selfie while protesting, how else will the world know how incredibly and completely woke you are?

Excuse me, signing those Sea.org contracts where Scientology owns you for a billion years is totally legal because it is done in international waters. That is how international waters work, pfft.

I’m not sure discomfort is actually as obvious to others as it is to the uncomfortable person. I spent my college years going limp and silent when my boyfriend tried to go farther than I wanted. I thought of this as negative reinforcement. But to a 19 year old boy, focusing his attentions on some cool new experience,…

Why isn’t the conversation that men need to learn not to take advantage of people’s obvious discomfort

My takeaway? Old time views on courtship and pursuit cannot co-exist with modern feminism. Do away with “non-verbal cues.” Millennial women cannot harp on affirmative consent and then say “But I gave you non-verbal cues.” Can’t have it both ways.

This was a bad date. She had a horrible date with a clueless guy who thought he was being sexy and hot. She was made to feel uncomfortable, and it wasn’t right.
