I would love to know why it seems like we're regressing on so many fronts as we are getting more and more progressive on others.

I just hope it's a death cry from the homophobic, racist, classist, misogynistic assholes.

Sorry, I think my point kind of got lost in there. Basically what I was trying to say was that this was a woman who 3 years ago did not have the self-confidence to choose an outfit for herself because her partner had made her doubt herself and punished her for her "mistakes" thousands of time over the years. Within a…

Oh absolutely. I want to acknowledge how manipulative and fucked up an abusive situation is without taking away from the courage, strength and capacity that abuse survivors have. We're not lesser people for being victims. Essentially, being a victim of domestic abuse does not make one less capable, but rather it…

That is horrifying and I am so, so sorry your wife and her family went through that. :(

Also, I don't know where you got your information but HE spits on her. Twice. As she's trying to maintain her distance from him. Jesus christ.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAAA

Like Janay Rice, I would keep walking by and try not to escalate the situation.

What the fuck is wrong with you? I bet you think that that time in the elevator was the first and only time Ray Rice hit his wife too.

Dude, instead of hiding behind this devil's advocate bullshit, why don't you grow a backbone and admit you're a piece of shit who wants to protect a man's right to punch his woman's face in?

So what happened to him that he went from loving, compassionate, non-violent partner to someone who lies in wait for his partner to walk by, spit in her face, follow her into an enclosed area, pound her unconscious and then drag her around on the floor?

For most decent human beings, that's a line that NEVER gets…

I just want to say that I agree with everything you've said, except there's gotta be a better way to acknowledge that abuse victims are often severely financially dependent on their abusers, without saying that they're staying for the money.

There are a multitude of excruciating factors that make leaving damn near…

It's a start.

This is fucking gross.

The whole anti-reproductive health thing gets me so fired up I can't even be bothered with eloquence. Also, every time some dumb shit tries to "calm me down" by saying that I live in Canada, where this will never happen, I point to all this regressive bullshit happening in the States.

That woman is a fucking disgusting human being.

I know you're not looking for validation from white people, but I just wanted to say that I'm on board with what you're saying and I could give a fuck about white people's excuses and feelings (even as I'm telling you about my own ha).

I think we all need to seriously…

"________ as fuck" are my favourite adjectives.

I really don't understand the glee some people have in righteously claiming that people who did not follow DEFCON 1 security levels in order to enjoy a little bit of fun sexy times deserve to be violated and humiliated.

I also don't understand how these people delude themselves into thinking they're safe from every…

With every previously silenced person who steps forward and demands to be seen, to be heard, demands justice, more and more will add their voices until they cannot be ignored. Those of us who can afford to get angry and push for change need to stand up with all victims—and stand up for them when they cannot.

I applaud…

He reminds me of Brian Littrell of Backstreet Boys and the 13 year old in me is swooooooooooooooooning.

Radio stations are the worst*. Especially those trying to appeal to hard working, straight, red blooded males. Never go on their social media pages unless you have a full day to lose to rage and weeping.

I'm sorry to say that I doubt the real world he lives in will resemble anything like hell or hard work.

Lady, the entire point is that put togetherness, like fashion, is subjective.

In fact, I personally find any outfit that involves yoga pants instead of jeans, trousers or other actual pants to NOT be put together. However, I do think that women (and men too!) can look pretty damn cute in yoga wear.

See how useless…
