“Hey remember when you were in that movie where they didn’t cast any black people? Even though you didn’t have control over that, we are going to go ahead and have a ‘gotcha’ moment to make your miserable publicity tour even worse.”

She’s not wrong, but I’m not sure I give a shit about Whoopi Goldberg says about this. She routinely says unbelievably offensive things on the View.

God I hate it when she does that tired faux Valley Girl accent. Besides being extremely dated (c’mon now, it was cute when she did it in her infamous one-woman show back in the 80’s), it’s simply irritating, and in this case, comes of as pure condescension. Ugh. And why put Jason, your guest, on the spot as if he were

I’m sure that wasn’t awkward for Jason or Adam at all. She had no business bringing them into this. Take it up with Wes Anderson.

I think I have seen about 10 talk therapists in my life. Maybe more. Not a single one brought up timelines and end dates. Not one. Am I just the unluckiest depressed person out there? Also: not a single medication helped either for more than four weeks. Fuck this profession.

Yes, other people call them prayers or wishes.

Your “men are saying this” indignance would make a much bigger impact if it wasn’t coupled with the “wahhhh Jezebel” rhetoric.

Because a lot of them believe it to be true. They’ve internalized the idea that men are monsters and there’s nothing you can do about it (although, yes, there can be something done about it when they choose to fucking do something about it). These same men go on to teach their daughters that men are monsters and they

Why are more men not speaking out against this bullshit idea of their biology leading them to rape?

You’re not grey because you’re a man and that doesn’t fit the narrative. Lose the persecution complex. Lots of people, even women who tend to agree with Jezebel’s stances, are also grey.

Why are more men not speaking out against this bullshit idea of their biology leading them to rape? Or being the reason why there are so many crap gender-specific dress code rules in school so the boys don’t get distracted from studying?

Me too. If I were as upset and humiliated as she was, I’d definitely want a few friends to just come up and hover inches from my face, kissing my cheeks every two seconds.

Since when is pay based on Need? It’s no bosses business why someone wants a raise, only why they deserve a raise based on their work.

I reported to my boss’s boss just yesterday that my boss (are you still with me?) told me in multiple salary negotiations that I don’t “need” more money because I’m a young woman with no children. Although I only mentioned it him for context in my current salary negotiations, I’ve been unsettled ever since that I did

Yep, pretty much this - they don’t see it. As with most privileged groups, they don’t see their own privilege and think their experiences are the norm/what everyone experiences.

don’t forget the always loved “SMILE” comments. (blargh)

Everyone who rolls their eyes at terms like “rape culture” and “misogyny” is an enabler to this kind of violence.

“Learn to take a compliment damn it! You’re not even that hot. You’re fat! You should be grateful someone noticed you! Slut!”

1. Sexually harass a bunch of women

She didn’t appreciate his compliments and drove him to it, obviously.
