Forever 21 back to its old, racist ways

I remember how much I loved Forever 21 (well, its prices) during my days as a struggling college student, but that romance is long over. In the past year alone, there have been a few reasons that turned our breakup from amicable to straight out hostile. In August, a leaked memo revealed the slashing of health care and other benefits for retail store associates. In September, they pulled NWA and Compton-inspired t-shirts modeled by thin white women thanks to much controversy after tweeting that they were “straight outta Compton.”

K-Y Intense to launch commercial with lesbian couple

Many of you have seen the commercials by K-Y that feature “real” couples talking about their experiences with K-Y Intense, a gel that intensifies pleasure during sex.

It acknowledges that gay people exist. It acknowledges that gay people have sex (and that it’s not “gross or an abomination). It’s perhaps the only ad I’ve seen referring to lesbians having sex that doesn’t portray them as oversexualized, objectified and not really gay but just performing for dudes’ pleasure.

Kudos to you, K-Y. Now can we get some free samples?

Update: We’re getting ...
