I think the video made the point well that wearing an ethnicity as a costume is bullshit. However, I don't think a white party would actually be terribly offensive to white people because we're the privileged group. Poking fun at and stereotyping us just isn't that bad. I'd get no more offended at a white party…

People of any gender or sexual orientation can make poor choices due to sexual attraction. But Farrell is claiming that men are not the privileged group despite having the power, the money, the majority of seats in congress etc. because of oppression sexy butts. That's just ridiculous.

This is all the women's fault. They should have known better than to shower naked. If you don't want someone to take pictures you naked and distribute them, you should just never ever get naked.

Nice try, but no. The criticism of "the shirt" is that it added to the overall culture of hostility towards women in STEM fields. A culture that was in place long before an offensive shirt was worn. Nobody was ever arguing that the shirt by itself prevents women from working in STEM. I would expect a simple…

But having an athletic build doesn't make you a "bad boy." Joseph Gordon Levitt, Terry Crewes and Tom Hardy all seem like nice people. They haven't been in trouble with the law that I know of. They don't have reputations as out of control partiers or womanizers. A lot of men still buy into these one dimensional…

Uck. Perfect example of what I was talking about.

Having gone back into the article to read the comments that have been made since last night, I noticed that the top comment is this

only ones celebrated.

only ones celebrated.

only ones celebrated.

Yet they are far from the only men with progressive views on gender. Just the only ones celebrated.

If we acknowledge that misogyny is a cause of violence in and of itself we must also acknowledge that feminism is important and things still need to change. We can't have that now can we?

That's a really good point. A lot of times when I've read about black men being lynched for rape the accuser was a white father or other male relative upset because he checked out their daughter or even, god forbid had a consensual relationship of some sort with her. It is more than a little disingenuous to act like…

Cops have a responsibility to not kill children in two seconds before they even a chance to drop the gun and inform that it is a toy. As for your last sentence, are you seriously arguing that people (kids at that) should be given the death penalty with no trial because he might commit a crime?

I wish Deadspin and other sports sites would be willing to talk about other sports besides football, basketball, baseball and hockey more often. I feel like sports that have a traditionally female fanbase like figure skating and gymnastics just get ignored by sports media. Out of the four dude approved sports I only…

I get way more stars on Gawker and Jezebel than Io9. Yet I get recommends and replies from authors much more often on Io9. Not that that's enough to get ungreyed. I've pretty much given up on getting ungreyed anymore. I really don't know what more I can do.

It really pisses me off when men bring up racism in order to silence victims and give black men a free rape pass. Most rape is intraracial so this attitude effects black women very negatively. How are we going to fix racism if we send the message to black women that in the interest of keeping black men out of the,…

It can be hard for anyone, whatever their gender to figure out where their personal problems end and societal issues begin. I haven't figured it out either. I have a history of disordered eating and body image issues. How much of that is because of a patriarchal beauty standard that values thin compliant women and…

I absolutely agree that it's important for feminists who parent, teach or otherwise care for children do their best to socialize boys as well as girls to not be required to conform to gender roles.

If you can't understand why access to birth control is an important health care issue, I was very much right about this conversation being over your head.
