little light commenting at feministe:THIS IS THE GODDAMN PROBLEM. To you, WOC and queer people are allies to feminism. They are adjunct groups, special interests, separate causes distract from women’s issues.Let’s unpack that a little.Women of color, in bringing up their concerns, are allies to ...

Dammit, Ren, you had to make me look. Speaking of trainwrecks in progress...the whole tl:dr thing, no doubt, chock full o' erm erraticness, but I was particularly drawn by the touching advice of dear Satsuma in these troubled times. (oh, follow the link from there) ...I’m from the tough love schoo...

Re this: Hi, witchy, stormcloud, delphyne, Heart, whichever other of the "radical feminists" who just can't understand why this is a particularly big deal for those of us who aren't among the Elect, or what the difference is between this guy and, what is it now? all the other porn "users" in the wor...

I really shouldn't bother, but since we're all about lies and the lying liars and all. She fisks: Examples of what I’m talking about from the pro-porn/prostitution side about anti-porn/anti-prostitution men: I find what appears to me at first to be yet another garden variety (as these things go, t...

But, procrastinating on -shit I actually need to do-, I went to check in, idly curious to see if Internets monikering himself after an infamous case where the doctor in question murdered his wife is his i...

Very short version: there's this...person? calling himself "Dr. Crippen," who apparently took exception to a woman posting on her own small blog about her own traumatic medical experience.

Yeah, it's That Time again, apparently. I'm sort of going off a general overview of the thread, any number of previous threads which sounded a -lot- like this one, and the understanding that I agree with RE's rant here, and have taken pretty much that tone in previous go-rounds. Because for whatever...

(image via Feministe) amirite? Y/N? I mean, granted, I'm a well-known "anti-feminist troll" as well as being a tad thick, so clearly the fact that I'm still having trouble distinguishing this sort of thing from the time-honored gossip rag tradition of snarking at female celebrities because they're "...
