Bravo to Jezebel's New Year's resolution "Calling it Quits on Nasty Nitpicking"
And by the physical, we are talking about any comment referring to a woman's body, whether she gained weight or not, whether she's looking old and haggard, etc. The fashion and the woman's actions are fair game, but no derogatory comments about her appearance are allowed. Hallelujah!
Personally, one of the things that really bothers me online, mostly in the celeb blogs, is the cruel, and unnecessary comments criticizing or putting down a woman's appearance, and as many of you have seen yourselves, some of these comments, truly are hateful, misogynistic, and down right abhorrent. Scary is that common offenders are other women. Ladies, let's strive to be kinder to each other.
Kudos to all the blogs who hold their audience to a higher standard of behavior! What other blogs do you know of that do a good job of keeping their reader comments to a high standard?
