Yes, pregnant women should lift exceedingly heavy things, be on their feet for hours, be put in stressful work situations, etc. under threat of losing their job for not being able to ‘perform’. BUT GOD FORBID that same woman wants to have a sip of wine while pregnant or (gasp) get an abortion and she is evil…

I would love to see some Anti Choice politicians take up this cause to protect fetuses.  

They are not being forced — and it’s notable that in the absence of forceful coercion, none of them are taking action. They are just laying low.

Are there really only two members of Insane Clown Posse? For some reason I thought it was a whole big ensemble kind of thing. 

Fuck this person. What an asshole. As a survivor of incest, fauxcest porn DISGUSTS me because it promotes and normalizes incest. I could barely read this article so I don’t know what sort of shit she’s doing, but a lot of it on the front page of pornhub is like “brother coerces sister to suck his dick so he won’t tell…

I’m a straight woman of color and my dad sexually abused me. Let me spell out to you what incest meant to me. I can remember only a very few moments of my childhood ever being happy. There are no childhood photos of me smiling. I spent much of my childhood in my bed, under a blanket, crying. I was completely…

Um, I think these old white guys know a little bit more about the emotions that female victims of sexual assault go through than the actual victims, thank you very much.

Good points, all. I personally wouldn’t classify JKR in the “appears to be an ally” label, and those words were probably poorly chosen.

OOhhhkayyyy yeah I was living in Toronto when they were working on this. Here’s the thing....I thought we wanted to teach people about consent? I thought that was a major current goal? But we’re laughing at someone talking about that, because they're religious so they must not know what is even falling from their…

I don’t think there’s an argument to be made that participation in athletics makes you a bad person. I think there are a lot of potential benefits of team sports in terms of building physical fitness, confidence, learning about the relationship between practice and improvement etc.

Eh, not really. I’m sure there’s some guy out there who sees you buying groceries or washing your car or whatever and thinks you’re “totally cringe” for not buying the superior brand of toilet paper or using the wrong kind of soap on your taillights.

But he needed it. Sex-u-al-ly. Needed. Small price for her to pay, a few hours of fear and a lifetime of horrible memories. He needs to be fulfilled. (My eyeroll just threw my back out.)

Truly, fuck all the women who are ready to pony out the ‘well, he didn’t do it to me, so he couldn’t have done it to her’ defense.

This is going to get to him bigly.  She could have written that his presidency is the worst thing to happen to America since 9/11.  She could have written that his wife is hideous looking and braindead.  She could have written that he is a grade-A asshole and dumber than a nutless squirrel.  She could have called his…

The most baffling thing I find about the “good boy who made mistakes” take is that it can somehow exist alongside the “if she’s telling the truth, why didn’t she go to the police?” takes.

The argument by conservatives that it’s just normal boy stuff is a waste of their breath. Kavanaugh is saying (just like with the confidential email stuff) that it never happened at all. If he confronted it honestly and said, “This is something I did as a drunk child,” and tried to be very, very sorry, conservatives…

Honestly, I think dating profiles for straight men should have a box to check if they’re housebroken.

MULLIGAN!

The RNC supported and funded the pedophile Roy Moore all the way to the end, well after they found out he was a pedophile. The republicans are absolute hypocrites on every level.

And I was like, “Ugh, here we go.”
