@someguy: Are you under the impression that women are rarely or never exposed to the viewpoint that consent is silly and that men want to touch us without our permission? Are you under the impression that we need more insight into how some men want to rape women without feeling guilty about it so they construct

@someguy: Oh what the fuck. Nobody reads Mein Kampf without knowing the context of Hitler for fuck's sake.

You know what bothers me most about this? That Jezebel has been skewing younger and younger lately, and there are high school students who read this site. And I was a teacher of high school girls, and the attitude of this rapist is the attitude of most of the boys I taught, and the attitude of most of the girls I

@leightenhet: Consent is OUR credit card. WE get to say when it is used, how much is spent and what our credit limit is"

@womanofsteele: WHAT DUDE JUST CHILL OUT. If you had just waited a second I bet you would have totally enjoyed getting your ass grabbed like that. I mean you totally love getting your ass grabbed during sex, right? So what's so different about it when it's a stranger in a public space grabbing your ass without your

@Adah: Nobody ever means for some shit to be pro-rape. But they are pro "toning down this whole consent business" and pro "why can't women just chill out and let me fuck them" and pro "consent is so silly everyone relax and show me your tits" and joe francis isn't pro-rape but that doesn't make him not a rapist.

"I'm not suggesting that a woman have sex with someone she doesn't want to, but I'm hoping we can start having more guilt-free sex by any means necessary. If we turn the volume down on consent, perhaps we'll get closer to this kind of liberation"

@miss.terious: Yes, as long as the power dynamic was similar.

I am so glad to be reading about how people support arguing with your dumb conservative family about their dumb conservative and evil politics when your family is actually in a position to do something about it.

@ohheyy_monet: "The only thing he ever lies about is whether or not he ate all the food or not"

@miss.terious: Part of what's unethical is necessarily tied to his gender. A man pretending to be a woman, and giving advice/information/creating relationships in which people put themselves in vulnerable positions based on assumptions about said person, including said person's gender, is unethical because of the

@jespree: There are homeless kittens and cats all over my neighborhood. We took one little guy in (on top of our two rescued cats and a crazy, neurotic, 70 lb german shepherd rescue dog) because, well he was real real cute, but also because he clearly didn't have it going on to live outside on his own. We've figured

@Bad Ash: Ah! You killed me! I'm dead from cuteness! Dead!

@miss.terious: Because we live in a patriarchy in which male sexual predators prey on women all the time, leaving us in a constantly vulnerable position especially vis-a-vis our bodies, sexualities, and other intimate details? And even though women can be sexual predators, there isn't the kind of widespread social

The step-daughter one is the worst, for me. Oh my god. It makes me so angry, and there's nothing I can do with the anger, and I want to find her and tell her, and tell her mother that her step-father is a creep.

@lt1218: Right, but this is still an expression of how "just like me" = "man," because "cool" = "like me" == becomes "cool" = "man."

People say I'm like a guy all the time, but I take it as a compliment because they just mean I can write my name in the snow by peeing accurately.
