Wow I am overwhelmed by this, the post, the replies, but it brings a tear to my eye to know that there are other people who understand what I am going through. Yes, I’m going through it too and I wish none of us […]

I like(d?) early 30 rock, which I watched in a feverish haze last winter (I am again in a feverish haze and watching Kids in the Hall religiously). But I will definitely agree that the treatment of Liz is […]

Thank you for talking about this! I mean, it’s important, but it’s easy to forget.

For me, as a film student and a feminist, movies (especially mainstream movies) are all but ruined for me. But comedies are the […]

Honestly, I love this series, but this post almost made me cry. The whole self-flagellation thing, that’s me too. Even though I’m in therapy or whatever, I’m still unrelentingly tough on myself. I love everything […]

I’ve got green eyes and I’ve done it with grey/silverish tones too. :) My problem is that I have greasy skin so it all collects in the crease of my eye, but alas.

I was never an avid reader of the site and I remember a controversy back a long time ago over one of the [former?] editors being confronted on her own experience with rape(?). That (though I only remember it […]

I think its fantastic that Adele is confidant and doesn’t bow to the pressure to diet, however, it doesn’t sit well with me that she always names names. Like she could have said what she says in that quote with […]

This makes me wanna punch and hit people with cartoon-y hammers.

I am Italian-American and I have a Spanish last name (Spain ruled Sicily from ~1400-1800 FYI). People always ALWAYS seem to think my ethnicity is […]

Which PDs do you see in Aura? Just curious…

But let me be clear, because when I say nasty, I do not mean Webster’s Dictionary nasty. I mean the hard knock, say and do what she wants, take no shit and look fly as hell bitch-goddess nasty. I mean nasty as an […]

I totally second queSarahSarah! There’s something about burlesque that is so naughty… but it seem SO FUN.

Also, I’m writing about Olive Thomas (it’s like this novelized biography… idk how to explain it) so […]

I agree and appreciate all of the points you have made, but I feel like you have left out the group of people who feel marginalized by the previous incarnations of the Women’s Rights/Feminist movement. Some of […]

I got to a counselor through my school (she is training for her licence) and she’s like the 4th counselor I’ve had and the best. She gets me to talk about all those things I try to repress and never think/talk […]

Thank you for writing about these movies!

Honestly I found the both insufferable, but I guess I was more sympathetic to Mavis. Mavis has a disease. Addiction is a disease. Addicts deserve a level of sympathy in […]

Haha not the drug! Primary Care Physician… I’ve heard a lot of people who’ve gone to a PCP for certain symptoms and their diagnosis is always: “You should lose some weight!” Good to know that they go to medical […]
