The actions of one are not the actions of many Opinion

The actions of one are not the actions of many

February 25th, 201953 In recent news, actor Jussie Smolett has come under fire for allegedly staging a hate crime on himself. Because of this, the legitimacy of other victims reporting abuse suddenly has a negative light shone on it. So often those who report crimes of abuse of any kind–specifically sexual–are not taken seriously. They are written off...
It's time for acceptance in positions of power Opinion

It's time for acceptance in positions of power

February 18th, 201932 Hatred for the LGBT community has always been a topic of conversation, especially in today’s political climate. With the U.S. Vice President being a supporter of conversion therapy as well as having a record of opposing gay rights, it doesn’t come as a surprise when other lawmakers share similar negative ideals regarding the LGBT...

It's time Hollywood went totally gay

February 11th, 201986 In a recent interview with Gay Times, former Kyle XY star Matt Dallas spoke out about  Hollywood producers encouraging him not to come out as gay because he "could not be successful if you were openly gay in the entertainment industry.” This is striking for a number of reasons. Queer characters are slowly becoming a staple on...
The importance of intersectional feminism Opinion

The importance of intersectional feminism

February 4th, 2019667 Here’s the thing: feminism affects everybody. Men. Women. Children. Non-binary individuals. It doesn’t matter. Feminism has an impact on us all. But something that often is not given attention is the concept of intersectional feminism. Intersectional feminism is the idea that feminism affects not just cis-gendered, middle class,...
Why do we watch reality television? Opinion

Why do we watch reality television?

January 29th, 2019292 “The Bachelor” and “The Bachelorette” are able to strum up nearly 8 million viewers per week to watch two people fall in love. “Keeping Up with the Kardashians”, a show perhaps about family but on the surface certainly seems like a show about rich people living their richest lives, brings in 1.3 million people per week...
Why fake news is so dangerous Opinion

Why fake news is so dangerous

January 22nd, 201964 There’s no denying that each one of us carries some kind of bias, whether it be political affiliation or from liking Kourtney more than Khloe. However, it’s when we crave validation in our beliefs that things can become dangerous; when we refuse to view forms of media that challenge our ideals in any way. This is when the plague...
Mental health in the modern world Opinion

Mental health in the modern world

January 14th, 201934 A survey from the American Psychiatry Association found that millennials are by and large the most anxious generation. Women are reported to have higher anxiety than men, and people of color scored 11 points higher on the anxiety scale than Caucasians. So what does this say about the state of our world? With statistics telling us...
Social media is more than meets the eye Opinion

Social media is more than meets the eye

November 14th, 201892 I, like many members of my generation, am addicted to my phone. More specifically, the forms of social media that I can access on my phone. Twitter, Facebook, Instagram. Any time we unlock our phones we are immediately sucked into our many social media platforms... but certainly, this can't be any good, can it? As much as it pains...
Safe sex is smart sex Opinion

Safe sex is smart sex

November 7th, 2018199 Sex is a part of our culture. Everywhere we look were being subjected to it - it's in Hardee's advertisements, it's in the movies, it's on TV. We live in a society with sex on the brain. A subdivision of our culture is the fast-growing realm of hookup culture. With apps like Tinder, Bumble and Grindr our next sexual partner is a swipe...
