I think it’s pretty plausible that homosexuality is a choice for many people (as is heterosexuality). This idea that everyone is born with a particular sexual orientation which remains fixed for the rest of their life doesn’t do justice to the complexity and variety of human sexuality. When homophobes yell about…

Really? We’re running cutesy gossip about Katy Perry’s love life right after she’s been accused of sexual harassment by two people? Seems like a bad call.

Yeah, this guy’s a dick, so who cares if he was sexually harassed, right? Let’s reserve our sympathy only for those victims who behave perfectly.

Warren spoke more than anyone else on stage. Not complaining — she’s a great candidate — but I thought it was odd that you highlighted how little time she was given.

I agree with you. But it’s entirely consistent to believe that touching a person’s tattoo without explicit consent is icky behavior and demonstrates disregard for boundaries while also believing that it is not a firing offense. I think he needs to be less touchy-feely, but I don’t think he deserves to be fired for…

I think Stern’s persona and the aura associated with his show does a lot to lower his guests’ inhibitions, so they often end up saying scandalous shit they wouldn’t say on a more buttoned-up show. That’s where his reputation comes from. But I agree with you that his actual skill as an interviewer doesn’t seem all that…

She slapped and threw things at crew members?! Why is just being fired, rather than being charged with assault? I’m pretty sure that if I started slapping people working under me, my employer’s response would be a bit more serious than “I’m sorry, we have to let you go”.

Uh... did you read my entire comment? I make this exact point, that not all speech is protected by the First Amendment, and that the question before the court was whether this counted as protected speech. Not sure what you’re disagreeing with.

You can’t face legal consequences for protected speech. Defamation isn’t protected by the First Amendment.

That’s not how the First Amendment works. It’s not simply that nobody will stop you from speaking, it’s that you won’t face legal consequences for your speech. If I write a book the State doesn’t like and they throw me in prison for it, they can’t say “Well, we didn’t ban your book, we just put you in jail. We haven’t…

I believe women when they say they have been sexually harassed or assaulted. There is a strong ethical reason to be predisposed to believing women in that situation. This doesn’t extend to believing women in every context whatsoever, such as their version of a business dispute.

Her response to his sexual harassment was to address it in private and continue to support him in public. Her response to him shilling for a competing brand was to go public about what an awful person he is. Tells you something about her priorities — “I can be friends with a sexual predator, but someone who endorses a…

On what basis do you say they were most likely co-authors?

I agree that Springsteen is awesome and Jezebel is often unnecessarily mean, but I don’t see any shitting on Bruce in this article.

I’m assuming the reason this shitty three-year-old post is now being recommended is some sort of weird April Fool’s prank. If that’s the case, then at least the editors are aware that this post is ridiculous.

Once again, the Kardashians and their hangers-on commit to kayfabe harder than professional wrestling ever did. Impressive.

With all due respect for her hustle, the few videos I’ve seen of hers have been obnoxious and painfully unfunny. To be fair, most big Youtubers are obnoxious and painfully unfunny, probably because they’re catering to an audience largely consisting of children and teenagers. I don’t see that schtick working on network…

True, there are many articles about this on Jezebel. But every single one of those articles mocks Bezos.

This flippant tone seems really inappropriate when covering a horrendous invasion of privacy. Revenge porn is a form of sexual assault. This is not a “dick measuring contest” between two men, it’s one man revealing threats of sexual assault made against him by another. I get that Bezos is not a pleasant person, but I…

As far as I’m aware, there has been no allegation that Klitschko was abusive towards Panettiere, and I doubt that if he was she would believe that it was best for their child to be in his custody. So why insinuate that he might have been abusive, based on nothing more than the fact that she suffered postpartum…
