In an environment where a bunch of white people rage-shit themselves nearly every time a black public figure says anything about the black experience, can you blame her for carefully worded responses?

Read it again. That’s not what she said at all. She said “I feel that women have the same rights” as in it’s her personal belief if not the reality, and “If a man can do it, a woman should be able to. It’s that simple.”

How amusing! I don’t want Beyonce to ever give any media that kind of direct access. She is a Black woman with a Southern accent who spent her high school years in a studio and touring- her detractors would cut her to ribbons. Hell, Jezzies might join in if her word choice was problematic.

*sigh* damned if you do, damned if you don’t

What exactly did you want her to say? Are they not good answers? Are they not clear? Do you want her to sound like an idiot or scream fuck the police even if that’s not how she truly feels?

If celebrating my roots and culture during Black History Month made anyone uncomfortable, those feelings were there long before a video and long before me.

Oh, please. GamerGate is anti-women, plain and simple. Otherwise it’s a massive coincidence that the prime targets are all women, that it mocks the “feminist agenda”, that it is anti-diversity, that 90% of the posts on the “KotakuInAction” subreddit are targeting women or feminism in some way or another.

Oh yeah you are totally right. Nintendo is only responsible when things go great.

It’s very telling that Neo Nazis and racists are supporters of the Gamergate agenda.

I recently read an article about why developers didn’t think about these situations, and it basically said that it was because these situations are typically ones that happen to women. The lack of women in tech industries means that there’s less people who think about problems that women are more likely to encounter.

The vacancy is better then what we had. My bet is Scalia would have purposely misunderstood how insurance works, too.

This is how I picture the SCOTUS men asking questions on contraception:

I rip off a piece of the box and say, “Get me more of these.” He can’t get my takeout order right a lot of the time, but he always comes back with the correct feminine hygiene products.

Edited to add: Oh, one time Target was out of my brand so he called from the aisle to ask if “super absorbency” and “ultra absorbency”…

and you don’t ask a man, can you buy tampons for me?

Well, you know, back when Bernie had ties to the civil rights movement, he wasn’t a politician either, so if he gets praise for his work pre-politics, ummmmm, shouldn’t Clinton as well? I mean, that would mean your argument would have to have merit but ...

It’s the face you make when someone accidentally drops a sexual innuendo in a super-serious office meeting and you want to laugh but you look around the room and realize you might be the only one who picked up on it... From here on out can we just call that the Stacy Dash?

I’m 100% sure she did not get the joke.

The Weeknd low-key dying was the best part of this.

It's actually crazy, because I have insanely long and curly eyelashes. When I do wear mascara, my eyelashes look uhMAHHHHzing and I often get asked if I'm wearing extensions or fakes (this is not a backdoor brag, it is a billboard in time square brag get fucking at me) but when I don't wear mascara I might as well…

I too suffer from blonde eyelash syndrome. I also have very fair, skin which ensures that the morning bags under my eyes are purple if I don't put on concealer. Add in ponytail and throw a knit cap over the whole thing so you can't see my hair, and people look generally concerned about whether I can make it to my…
