Lewinsky’s XoJane?
1) What does XoJane mean? unabashed self? A self that is encouraged?
2) Does "all that ***-shaming" mean "all that attack and humiliate woman adulterers"?
Context:
So now, Lewinsky is attempting to lean back into the personal brand she never asked for. This time, she hopes that explaining what it “feels like” to be her will lead to a more productive (and financially sustainable) outcome. It just might work. Lewinsky’s attempt to centralize her own experience—“It may surprise you to learn that I’m actually a person,” she writes in Vanity Fair—seems all of a sudden like a promising tactic in 2014. We now have enough space from the scandal to begin to question how we treated its participants, and our media landscape is fractured enough to support all angles. If the scandal broke today, Lewinsky’s XoJane “It Happened to Me” essay would be deluged with supportive comments. Sites like this one wouldn’t stand for all that ***-shaming.
