All you need to know about purity rings you can learn from serial adulterer and all around sin-sational guy Donald Trump, and his comically high approval rating with the morally “superior” Talibangelicals.

I’ll disagree on the “suck balls” part. I refuse to buy into the internet hive mind that the movie completely sucked. The second weakest of the movies of the movies? Sure. 16 years of directoral rust coming off the hull? Sure. But I don’t feel that it’s the extinction level event disaster like The Hive Mind claims it…

JFC, stop using Weinstein as some sort of standard to measure terrible behavior. When you do that, the initial reaction will be, “Oh no, not like that,” which downplays the original behavior in question and further contributes to this problem.

I had the most interesting discussion with a pro-Trump guy about this today. He’s very much anti-DACA as “immigration reform”

Ooh, I wish I’d put THAT on my sign at the march today.

The leopards are coming for all your faces, assholes.

And also, it’s going to put off the Norwegians.

Nah, you know what divides us?

She said multiple times in different ways she didn’t want what was happening. Why does everyone just gloss over that fact?

I get it. You don’t think this was so bad. Here’s a counter: if we accept that it WAS bad, it means that many of us have to accept that we have also been assaulted, and that many of us have assaulted people because we didn’t bother to care how they felt. I get that you don’t want to accept that -you and 80% of the…

And, just to get a head start on the trolls, I want to emphasize with regard to the fingers down the throat thing and your head-holding comment-there are those of out there who are into both of those things sexually, and still expect you to wait for clear, enthusiastic consent before you start any of it!

Ah yes, sit down with the dude sexually assaulting you or who did and see if you get an apology. Then get told by people like you, why are you still talking to him? Why aren’t you leaving? Assault victims can’t do anything right because certain people will always blame them, no matter what happens.

Leaving doesn’t always feel like an option in the moment. I’ve had bad sexual situations that I’ve felt empowered to remove myself from, but I’ve also had bad sexual situations that I felt stuck in for whatever reason. Sometimes those reasons for feeling stuck were good ones and held up to scrutiny in the more…

I’m glad you were never forced or coerced into a sexual act that you didn’t want to perform. I’m sorry you were placed into a situation where you had to compromise on your comfort and safety to “get it over with” which I think is the point. Those aren’t bad dates, those are assholes that need to be culpable for their…

It’s distressing how old lady this response is. I own my own story. I have the right to talk about anything that has happened to me. If someone thinks I should say nice things about them, they should treat me well.

This is my perception after listening to others who’ve been in Grace’s situation. Grace doesn’t know she’s met Jekyll & Hyde yet, so when he starts acting crazy...she still thinks it’s sweet Dr. Jekyll...so she stays. She wants Dr. Jekyll to comeback.

I recently re-read Obedience to Authority, in which Stanley Milgram describes how he asked people how they would act in a scenario that involved saying no when circumstances pushed a yes, and they all said they would stop and say no as soon as they wanted to, but when he put people into an actual experiment, very few…

I hear you, girl. I hear you. I can’t even tell you how many people I care about that I was disappointed with — not even because their opinions differed from mine, but because they were not just dismissive of this poor girl but vitriolic — all were convinced that whatever happened, it was clear she just didn’t handle…

This Aziz Ansari story has really shaken me. As some of you may remember (or maybe not, I’m certainly not that important), a month or two ago something finally clicked in my head- that I had been sexually assaulted when I was a teenager by my boyfriend at the time. We were both 16 (plus or minus a year, I can’t quite…

That’s what happened..... now the awkward part is going out of my way to avoid him since we both work within a block of each other and frequent same social places ..... ugggg ( too bad .... his dick game strong tho)
