Finally, Pinterest has provided some safe, high ground for women on the internet to talk about kale, crafts, and dresses while the rest of the web is littered with rude memes, semi-nude girly pics, and trolls. But now, men want their piece, and they are storming our castles, m’ladies! Clearly they have no idea what they’re up against. College Humor proudly present: The Fall of Pinterest.

I’m not a big Pinterster myself (although The Mary Sue does have its own Pinterest!) but this whole thing reminds me of those times when a person finds my Tumblr for the first time and likes or reblogs seven things in a row. On the one hand, I’m glad we share interests. On the other, I was just given a creepy snapshot of another person’s browsing history. And it was creepy.
Kind of like this video.

We already love Dylan Meconis (creator of Family Man), so there’s really nothing more to say about her depiction of all the major ladies of the first two Star Trek shows except that it’s great. (via Tor)

Well, well, well, look at this! Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg has decided to take a little peek at the internet’s fastest growing social network by joining it himself! Zuckerberg has created a profile on Pinterest, the site that has been called such things as “lady-centric” and “catnip for women” because 70 percent of its users are female. Is Zuck really into collectibles? Or is he taking a look at the competition?

Last week, the media discovered Pinterest. Mashable reported that it drove more traffic than Google+ last month and was on par to match Twitter in click-through rates. Soon after, tech analysts debated whether Pinterest would be the next Groupon, soon be usurped by myriad copycat sites.
However, another topic started to emerge that should be far more troubling to social media users. Tech journalists covering the site started using phrases like “female-centric” and “catnip for women,” in their articles.
It’s a curious choice of words and not just because men founded the site.

"SHARKS. Just when you thought it was safe to go back in the uterus." - A thing I just said in chat, sans context.

In a perfect world, that would make those men MORE sympathetic to women when they talk about objectification of women in media.
Susana Polo
But really the take away from this is that two seconds of quickly covered up Chris Hemsworth stomach makes some men feel objectified.
Susana Polo
Good to know that a broad trend across much of visual media has effected one man, in one shot. We can all go home, sexism is over.
Susana Polo
Whenever we bring up objectification of women in modern action movies, people always bring up the one shot of Chris Hemsworth shirtless.

Tell me that somebody, somewhere, has written Gandalf M-preg fanfic with the title "A Wizard is Never Late."

The Voyager crew is in 1996 LA. Also Ed Begley and Sarah Silverman are there. I LOVE IT when Star Trek does cheesy time travel.
