This kind of post is the best →
Everyone spews their sensitivity all over the place.
I’m in awe of people’s ability to read an article, then internalize one small part of the article and make that the main focus of the comments.
COTD for best use of a gif →
Reader submission:
You’re probably going to get someone telling you that “stupid” is now ableist, lol. Basically, you can’t win with the tumblr language policers. Thanks for standing up to them.
Yeah, that already happened. It was fun.

Reader submission:
Two requests: could you please include more details on Jezebel posts, for those of us who don’t want to give them clicks, since clicks is what they’re going for anyway? Could you please not use the word “bitch” (at least pejoratively) since it’s a misogynistic insult? It’s a bad choice for a feminist blog to make.

Just some of the comments. What?
Also…the article? This boring bitch just discovered sex toys, and yet she’s able to write about them? What?

persephonemag:
From the article:
To repost images of a victim’s rape without her permission — the last two images in the post are graphic, if blurred-out, screencaps that specifically depict the attack — is to deprive her of her dignity and her right to preserve her privacy. It victimizes her all over again. Her blurred-out body does not get to be sacrificed on the altar of “raising...

FUCK YOU
feelinghellastabby:
“Editor’s note: We have since added additional pixelation to all of the images, including those of the attackers. This post is ultimately about the existence of a video, thus the images ARE the story — without them, there’s nothing. To remove them would be, in effect, to un-report the story. Which is not going to happen. -JC”
GO FUCK YOURSELF, YOU ARROGANT PIECE OF SHIT....
Also, about Jezebel's alibi
redlightpolitics:
They claim they are not a feminist site as the reason why they post “controversial” stuff, which is fair enough, if their business model is better served by distancing themselves from feminism, I believe it’s their prerogative. However, Jessica Coen had no problem being featured as one of the “new faces of feminism” in her role as EIC of Jezebel at The New York Magazine. So,...

I know! Let’s watch the video and post screen shots from it!

I love when MRAs find jezebel →
Drink whenever he accuses people of “misandry”.
Apparently, the definition of “misandry” is “women calling out men on their shitty behavior”.

“mrsbuzzed” is ridiculous.
I love her breeder logic. “You’re selfish if you don’t have kids! I have kids so someone is forced to take care of ME.”
People like this confirm my choice not to have children because they sound so miserable. Happy people don’t go on rampages about what they’re missing out on but how it’s all “worth...

Reader Submission:
Eew. Jezebel is kinda terrible and I feel bad for reading it. The comments are horrible but the writing is bad too a lot of the time. Can you recommend any sites that are similar to Jezebel that are less cringeworthy?
Hmm, Thegloss is bad. Neither is The Hairpin. I think I linked to Persephone before, they have a lot of good articles that cover a lot of different topics.

redlightpolitics:
Yep, just what the title says. And here’s the opening paragraph (also, I was angry when I wrote this. And I regret nothing!):
Jizz on your face! A FACIAL! Let your guy cum on your rosy cheeks because it is the latest act of feminist empowerment! Moreover, IT’S CLEANSING! Didn’t you hear? Jizz on your face is better than a detox diet! It has “purifying” properties. Or so says...

95+% of the comments on this are stupid →
Between this:
And this:
I can’t decide if this commenter is serious or not. The vast majority of their comments are absolutely insipid.
