Like, what did they expect? Unless you are featuring anodyne celebs like Mario Lopez or Tracey Edmonds (and no‚ as soon as Extra comes on I change the channel— I had to Google the show to find out their names) who have no known position on abortion or guns or Obama— someone, left or right, is going to rise up in holy dudgeon. It truly is a shame.

So now not only will the loony right boycott Lands’ End for having run Steinem, the sensible left and middle will ditch them for having purged her.

Well ya know, what does she expect when she goes around putting down the all-american pastime, porn?

She was great on Finding Your Roots, btw : http://www.pbs.org/video/2365661035/

Watch, listen to what she has to say at 6:20–>, that part of the audition for Playboy Bunny included a gynecological exam. “You can’t make this stuff up.”

Freedom, freedom, freedom. And now our daughters are expected to take it up the ass. Trump perfectly represents the patriarchal american dream.

“It was an opportunity for us to provide this interview with Gloria because she’s known for doing great things. She’s a legend. It was never our intention to raise a political or religious issue,” Casper said.

Good god! Where did we put that ‘Butt-Hurt Cream,’ again?

I was disappointed in Steinem for doing something commercial. As to LE apologizing for interviewing her, fuck them, I will never buy anything from them again.

Someone at LE is doing a bang up job, and the thousands venting their anger on FB proves it.

administrator Sue Head said its decision to feature a “well-known abortion activist” helped lead to the school’s decision to shop elsewhere. Head said the college has spent more than $150,000 in the company’s uniform division.

Religion and money go together like milk and honey. If the fear of God won’t bring you around, then perhaps a little drop in the old stock price instead.

they don’t like her abortion advocacy?
but i bet they love her comments on transgender people.
so it’s kind of a wash really.

Two can play at that game. I am no longer going to shop at Lands End because they caved to the radical Right. BOYCOTT LANDS END.
