I thought you meant that it has nothing at all to do with religion, just that it celebrates a successful battle. Sorry.

Firstly, the idea that this woman weighs 275 lbs is laughable. Secondly, yes, she is muscular and strong. SHE’S A PROFESSIONAL, SUCCESSFUL ATHLETE. It’s her job to be muscular and strong. I guess because she’s a woman her muscles are too big for your liking? Lastly, you did not provide any citation to back up your…

This is also on her list, I know I am not the only one thinking it....

I don’t think anything is “pretty clear”, and frankly I’m ashamed of whover promoted you out of the grey. The facts have been laid out and there is plenty of reasonable doubt, but there is also, for me, plenty to cast doubt on his innocence. His DNA in scratch and bite marks, for instance. Yes, that could be…

I heard that one time Julia Child used cake mix.

Elizabeth Wurtzel is a problematic writer but she sometimes hits the nail on the head, as when she used the quote “the reason sex with minors is illegal is that while girls may look and act like nascent Sharon Stones, they don’t have the slightest idea what it all means.”

Serious question - I’m a mid 30’s attorney and my boss recently hired a very attractive 18 year old filing clerk, and she was super flirtatious with me right from the start. I advised her that I was flattered, but that that sort of behavior was inappropriate and I’d prefer that she stopped. She did not, and persisted…

Imagine how he responds to Jolie Kerr: “You suggest washing Santorum off your sheets with cold water first? What if that’s PURE ELEMENTAL SODIUM?? Jolie’s advice could KILL YOU!!!”

Didn’t realize that my current shit worth is zero or in the negative, and that canned haggis, global thermonuclear war, and daylight saving time are all better ideas than “Ask a Lawyer.” Thanks for this moment of self-realization. Going up to the cabin for few weeks to fix this for you.

I am a[n emotionally stunted and/or sociopathic] 26-year-old man living in Michigan. I have a 17-year-old [and therefore, I assume, highly susceptible to manipulation through implicit or explicit threat of physically and/or emotionally abusive behavior] coworker [around] who[m I have constructed an elaborate sexual…

Do you think normal men have sex with 12 year olds? Do you think normal, sane men have sex with anyone in the bathroom of a cvs? Do you think normal men take their dicks out in public? This person is disgusting, and a predator.

No! No! No! No! She's a child. Do you imagine that there are a lot of super worldly 6th graders?

26 year old man: put your fucking shmonse back in your pants and download tinder or some shit. Don’t bang your 17 year old coworker, I do not need a law degree to tell you that.

There’s a quote from Hard Candy that sums it up pretty well: “Just because a child knows how to imitate a woman does not mean she is ready to do what a woman does.”

A 12 year old may imitate adult behavior, or a child may learn over-sexualized behavior as a result of repeated sexual abuse. That should not be confused with mature sexual desire.

Nevermind that she’s not even a fucking “teenager” — she’s 12 — in what fucked up universe does a much older, strange man coaxing a 12 year-old into a bathroom = “consent”?

What’s more likely here: that a 12 year-old, who just so happened to look 18, also so just happened to run into a romantic stranger who coerced…

Having the strength and courage to address it after so many years of destruction deserves some serious kudos. It is incredible that you were able to listen to the part of you that was still advocating for the goodness you deserved.

“She was not necessarily all that unwilling, but at the age of 12 it doesn’t matter,” said Kelly.

Oh good Christ. Just because a 12 year old is compliant doesn’t mean she wants to have sex—it means SHE IS TWELVE and accustomed to taking orders from adults, which is exactly what makes children vulnerable in the first place, you HALF WIT. Never reproduce, Detective Kelly.

What kind of parents would let their teen daughter anywhere near Tyler Seguin?
