BBC - Why are single women still mistaken for prostitutes?
I have only like once eaten alone in a real restaurant in america. i don't do it because i feel extremely self conscious. why? i really don't know. i see other people eating alone and i either think nothing of it, or i think "wow, that's so awesome; they're so brave." but, SHIT, to be mistaken for a prostitute. if that's not sexism i don't know what is.

Eater - Yelp Reviewers’ Authenticity Fetish Is White Supremacy in Action
when i think authentic, i think flavors. and, honestly, i only feel qualified to rate (other than socal american food) szechuanese food as authentic or not. i've been there to the region a half dozen times, eaten high to low (mostly medium to low, lol), had snacks and meals, altho i've never eaten at a home, so there's that, ha. but seriously, what to most americans, or most people from anywhere, know about what makes food authentic? have you been to that place a lot? did you grow up there? or is most of what you know of that culture and food taken from tv, movies, and tourist ridden vacation spots? i don't think authenticity should be on a rating scale. it practically promotes cultural generalizations and therefore racism.
