He is the most miserable gay man I have ever seen. She is quite the cook even if her show is pretentious and annoying.

Alton Brown is where it's at.

Which means Bill Cosby gets to rape all the women he can get alone? Come on. Marriage is not some sacred union that allows one party to do whatever the hell he or she wants while the other stands by. She doesn't have to respond to these allegations but I'll be damned if people don't examine why someone stands by when…

Not sure I understand your question. Does it matter in general? In general, yes, because it contributes to rape culture, which I believe is a thing that exists. Does it matter in particular? Yes, because she may have been able to serve as a witness, if she knew something.

On one of the rare occasions I actually listened to anybody on ESPN, last night I heard Chris Mortensen droning on about how "I'm sure everybody's pretty tired of hearing about this by now...hopefully it'll be resolved soon.".

I really, really wish that Diana hadn't (in good faith, I think she didn't realize at first) responded to this fucking troll and brought him out of the grey. I can't even believe that the top comment of this excellent article is a goddamn MRA. Fucking hell.

Except it's not a large segment. You asshole MRAs NEVER do ANYTHING except barge into discussions about how many, many men kill many, many women, and you screech and bitch and shriek that not devoting every syllable of every conversation EVER of ALL time is nothing less than extreme MISANDRY.
