We really aren't more aesthetically pleasing than men. I can admire a woman's beauty, but frankly I find the nude male body much more beautiful. I hate that men are always sold short on this subject! Everyone is beautiful!
The last few pictures in MK's Instagram have displayed an alarming new duckface, and people are giving her shit about it. It does look like she's had work done - her face is suddenly a lot narrower than it used to be. Suddenly she doesn't even look like the same person any more. Not plastic surgery-shaming, but I've…
Short version: If you're not at least bisexual, you're not really a woman.
You do only put one space between sentences! The two spaces thing is a holdover from when people still used typewriters!
I unrepentantly love the Oxford comma. Don't be a heiney.
About Cameron Diaz's statement- when did our society start having an "all women are a little bi" narrative? I mean, it just seems like in my adulthood I keep meeting guys who try to convince me to try it so they can witness and I'm just not interested. And they aren't really convinced I'm not interested. It's fine…
Apparently, they didn't actually get to pick their dances, so she was making the best of what she got assigned.
You know, if you capitalized some letters in your username, it'd be easier to get where you're coming from.
About Cameron Diaz comment, being sexually attracted to and appreciating beauty are two different things. I think that probably all women can like other women's beauty, I'm not sure all women have felt sexual attraction to other women.
I'm glad everything on ONTD isn't center-justified.
Hey, come on now. We're all above this "real woman" crap. There's no one shape that's the right one for women to have in this world, so let's stop using language that dogs each other, regardless of the position of privilege.
she has a beautiful looking family
One of the best papers a student ever turned in to me was a final project on the rhetoric of tabloid magazine prices. Her argument was mostly based around Life & Style, which at the time was the only magazine in that category under $2.00. She had some interesting conclusions about ethos and audience and how people…
I did think about that, and it's a fair point. But I'm thinking more narrowly of the idea that she's expressing, which seems basically to be "this is how I want to dress. This is what feels right for me." And I feel like that should be enough, in that case.
Right? Take Jesus out of the equation, she's saying she wants to be more demure than 'sexual.' What's wrong with that? Or, for that matter, what's wrong with her expressing her own religious beliefs? From what I've seen on Jezebel's two posts on the subject, she wasn't cramming her religion down anyone's throats but…
I respect Candace for not caving into the pressure of dressing sexy. Shame on you for making fun of her!
"Mumford & Sons did not break up."
I'm not going to touch on the religious aspect of her choices (yes, I am, Jezebel is so hypocritical when it comes to women being modest for Islam and women being modest for Christianity), but I'm glad she's not caving to the pressure to be sexy. It sucks that women are even put in a position to have to constantly be…
OK, but...if we roll our eyes at Candace Cameron in this instance, aren't we basically saying that her reason for claiming autonomy over her own body is less valid than other people's reasons? Is there really a WRONG reason to exercise your right to dress as makes you most comfortable?
