Yes, that's inconvenient that he isn't white, isn't it? I know how that goes.
In the few months I've been following his posts, he's spoken up for women of color like me about, oh, 100x more than anyone else who isn't a woman of color. In light of that, comments about porcelain vaginas don't bother me that much. I prefer occasionally offensive support over serene indifference.
