Reminds me of the way a lot of Finnish men celebrate International Women's Day: by buying flowers for their wives/girlfriends/etc... Okay, maybe it's not sexist per se, but don't you think there'd be better ways to honor the day dedicated to gender equality?
― Tuomas, Thursday, 12 June 2014 11:42 (nine years ago) link
That's fairly common across the world. IWD has its roots primarily in socialist countries where "gender equality" was supposedly enshrined in the culture so the emphasis was on expressing appreciation rather than activism. It's slowly moving back the other way so it'll be interesting to how the concept develops over the next couple of years.

I was riding my bike through downtown Boise on Mardi Gras once...this guy was trying to convince a woman to flash him for some beads. She reached up into her bra like she was going to flash him, and pulled out pepper spray and sprayed him in the face. Everyone in the balcony bar above clapped and cheered. It was awesome.

Jeffrey Wells, he has opinions and more opinions about Amy Schumer's appearance and the concept of "Schlumpies & Dumpies"
― Don A Henley And Get Over It (C. Grisso/McCain), Thursday, 12 February 2015 22:35 (nine years ago) link
I grew up in a world in which conventionally attractive or semi-attractive people used to be the ones who got laid the most often. Trust me — I used to do quite well at the Westport Players Tavern in the mid to late ’70s, and I had a good sense of what worked and what didn’t.
Well, yeah.

jeffrey wells is a 2015 tastemaker whose findings have been derived from self-serving memories of his heyday as a flannel-shirt-wearing wolf frequenting the westport players tavern in the mid to late '70s.
― estela, Thursday, 12 February 2015 23:44 (nine years ago) link
there was some other segment on Inside Amy Schumer where she was doing street interviews and made some asian guys = small dicks joke, I don't see it online tho
there's tons of this stuff in her material and unlike w Sarah Silverman, the jokes aren't about how racist she's being, they're about how real and funny racial stereotypes are. which, when they're being perpetuated by a white woman, they aren't.

The irony of all of Wells's dumbshit kvetching is that Apatow, who is one of those "schlumpies & dumpies" is married to Leslie Mann, who is a stone-cold fox.

Rogen's wife is a looker as well.
In the comments on the second Wells piece, a reader points out that he isn't being sexist because he's being equally critical about less attractive male stars. Which is all well and good, but (A) It started with a less than enlightened set of comments he made about Schumer, and (B) if this isn't as a whole defined as 'sexist', the shoe certainly fits for 'shallow' to the degree that a sample spoon from Baskin Robbins is at a Grand Canyon-level of depth in comparison to Mr. Wells.
― Don A Henley And Get Over It (C. Grisso/McCain), Friday, 13 February 2015 20:41 (nine years ago) link
Yeah, that.
Also, isn't/wasn't Schumer dating Anthony Jeselnik? I mean, he's no Jeff Wells but
