Right?! That’s what I’m wondering, especially since I can’t watch videos at work, lol.

Thank you! That is good general advice and a heartfelt message on the power of words. I am terrible about PII, so I will work on multi-username tactics.

This is a little, simple one that involves me assuring you my EX is honest, if a little weird.

You make a great point on encouraging rather than destroying. My only addition is that I do talk to my friends about why I won’t play a game, if I think the messages are harmful and disrespectful. But I try not to discourage them from playing the game, as it’s their money and choice. I just mention that I chose not to…

That’s a really good idea I hadn’t considered. I will go off to reddit to be loud there. But part of my fear of going to the really aggresive areas is getting my family hurt from my words; do you have recommendations on how to speak up without getting targeted on places like reddit or 4chan?

I am now confused; I was under the impression from lots of helpful men on the internet that all feminists ARE lesbians, and only lesbians can be feminists! This either/or model John gives seem to suggest you can only be one or the other!

I feel like these groups are gaining more ground than they have before, even with women. I see friends and see stories of young women joining these groups out of a need to belong somewhere and have a controlled environment (it’s the same thing cults do, in some cases). Do you feel like this ultra-conservative movement…

Yeah, but even the Nobeckastans wait for you to take off your contacts.

Especially vs. the number of HP people that donated to her campaign:

Yes, thank you! Maybe it does take a guy to say it? Because when my female friends and I tried and let a guy friend know he was not being charming by flirting with every waitress we had, he only doubled down on the behavior. Maybe if his male friends said it, he would get it, though? If it’s not too personal, what…

LOL, I think it’s an attitude thing, too. I only got harrassed a little growing up, which I took to mean that I was ugly (forgive my teenage self, everyone). I’m plain, sure, but I was told later by former classmates it’s because everyone thought I was too cold and bitchy to approach or bother. I am so grateful for…

And we’re taught it so young; to value that harassment and be jealous of the ones that get it. It’s so sad and we have to speak up so maybe our GRANDKIDS won’t think that’s the norm.

I understand how you feel. Getting only negative responses makes anything that holds positive value seem like the only way to go. I’ve been there and it huts so much to feel like a valueless creature instead of a human. And I hated the pretty girls for getting that attention over me, to the point of wishing men…

I’m pretty sure that idiot couple wanting raw ingredients was thinking of ‘Papa Murphey’s’ that sells only uncooked pizzas for you to bake at home. But if you can’t get the name of the company right and THEN argue about being right or not with someone that had to be in training to work there....then, no, you are wrong…

wait wait wait...I’ve been pronouncing that darn word based on transliteration/best guess. I’m in a Spanish-speaking state and people will say it like that...what am I SUPPOSED to say, dang it?!

Hmm...yes, you make a lot of good points on changing the registry. I feel like, at least on the job market, only jobs that require certain high standards, like government clearance jobs, should only be allowed to access those registries, so that a person can still get a job out of prison; being stable helps with…

I just assume we’ll take over because all the male devils will get sick of our ‘nagging’ and the female ones will want to join us!

Thanks! I think my boyfriend and I need to offer help...he’s the kind of guy that can intimidate anyone, but he only uses his power to stop fanatics, lol. And I’m good at fixing computers (is that something these groups need?) and it’s good to know they need more than just escorts!

A very brave person could wear that silly bow top and paint Minny Mouse on their stomach and have a great Halloween costume, at least?

Oh god, I didn’t even realize that part. That just took me from pissed to depressed.
