Harry Styles: Yes, #MenToo



While performing at a charity event the singer, Harry Styles, was assaulted by a deranged fan. As you'll see in the video he was kneeling down in front of a group of girls when one decided to take advantage of the situation and reach for his crotch, Styles quickly pushed her hand away. Though he didn't stop his performance he was obviously shaken by the incident. He avoided that part of the stage for the rest of his show.




Although many fans and others alike were quick to get onto social media to denounce this act, there are some who still sought to normalize this attack and imply that it was somehow nothing more than an accident. It's no wonder why men don't speak up when they feel as though they've been assaulted or raped. Society makes male celebrities feel like they are so lucky to have women completely lose it when they see them. Society questions men for "complaining" about "getting ass." If you think sexual assault and rape can only happen to women pull your head out of your ass, it is not a hat.

Harry Styles hasn't made a comment about the incident and it doesn't look like he is going to try and press charges. I don’t want to speculate because I understand how dehumanizing assaults of this nature feel like. As women, we have a hard enough time getting friends and family to believe our stories so I can only imagine what it must be like for men.

Lastly, Ms. Donna Karen, I'm just wondering what your thoughts were on Harry Styles' outfit choice. I mean you did say women ask for it with the way that they dress. Here is Harry Styles fully clothed in that awful red suit and he was still attacked. I guess I'm still trying to figure out your thought process when you said what you said.

Gabby Douglas: I WAS ROOTING FOR YOU! WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU!!

 It is with a heavy heart that on this day, November 18th, 2017, I hereby order the official cancellation of Gabby Douglas. Around 5 o’clock on November 17th, Gabby apparently lost her goddamn mind and sent out an ignorant ass tweet in response to her former teammate Aly Raisman’s #MeToo. Aly recently opened up about how she had been sexually assaulted for years by a team doctor. While many praised Aly Raisman for her bravery, her teammate for whatever reason felt the need to throw in her two cents stating via tweet, “it is our responsibility as women to dress modestly and be classy. Dressing in a provocative/sexual way entices the wrong crowd.”    I could scream. I’m not going to go in on what she said. In previous blog posts I’ve made it very clear about what it is exactly I think about women, and just people in general, who choose to place blame on victims. I will say however that Gabby’s statement seems to be a default for just too many people. I shouldn’...

Radicalized Alt-Right Terrorist Kills 17 People in the 18th School Shooting of 2018

MAGA Supporter and Alt-Right Domestic Terrorist, Nikolas Cruz, shot and killed 17 people this past Wednesday at a Parkland, Florida high school. The 19-year-old who had been expelled from Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School for his past violence and disciplinary issues returned to said school with an AR-15, a semi-automatic rifle, and apparently weapon of choice among mass murderers of his kind. The AR-15 was used in almost all of the deadliest mass shootings in the United States, including but not limited to Las Vegas, Aurora, San Bernardino, Orlando/Pulse Nightclub, and Sandy Hook. Investigators believed he pulled the fire alarm in order to draw people out of classrooms before opening fire on students and faculty.  Cruz had been kicked out of two private schools and had been held back twice. His social media presence can only be described as really disturbing and super suspect. Cruz was an avid Donald Trump supporter who posted a variety of gun and violence rela...

Kylie Jenner is a Culture Vulture, but I Ain’t Mad At It

First off, there are WAY more important things going on like Net Neutrality, the GOP tax reform, the new, new (new) Muslim Ban, and etc. that you all should go read up on, but since you’re already here let’s talk about my least favorite Kardashian, Kylie Jenner. Kylie Cosmetics is set to debut a brand new line of concealers that feature 30 diverse and inclusive shades. They will be released on December 13th along with her bullet lipsticks that I'm not gonna buy. Any one of my family members, college roommates, or best friends will tell you that I LOVE makeup, so I have to admit when I first saw the picture I was impressed. Kylie Jenner still can’t collect my coins because at the end of the day she’s gotten it wrong so many other times. She is the literal definition of a culture vulture, but so is Drake.  As a WOC, I quite simply cannot, but good for her for showing us brown skinned queens some love.  Since the Kardashian/Jenner Klan can’t breathe or ...
