My anti-choice mother, when I told her I would be getting a Mirena IUD: "It doesn't stop eggs from being fertilized; it just stops them from implanting!" *wrings hands* Me: "I sure as hell hope so!" I don't owe anything to any goddamn egg.

Dude if that looks belongs to her husband alone I have fucked her husband like, 12 times.

It sounds like, either way, you run a legitimate risk of ending up exhausted and cleaning up poop. Damned if you do, dammed if you don't.

Manegeress? Good Lord. She had no problem taking the feministic approach with her name.

I sent that prince my money; what the fuck is he using it for?

A lot of rape isn't sexually motivated. It's power and manipulation.

I usually think about rape as sexually motivated, in terms of the attacker's belief that he has a right to another's body. But this story shows very clearly that rape is a conscious tool of violence. There was nothing sexual here other than the organs. In choosing to rape this women rather than beat her (or…

In my experience, victim blamers love this type of story, because it lets them set up a false dichotomy between "real" rape and sluts who are making up accusations to ruin a poor man's life. They'll be loudly outraged because it's safe; it involves another country and a holy woman.

to be clear, the gays are responsible for EVERYTHING

If if were simply a group mentality thing, wouldn't we have, at some point, discovered a propensity for these overt displays of racism across other campus groups as well? Clubs? Sports teams? ROTC? Even just tightly knit social circles? The reason this behavior flourishes specifically and with alarming frequency…

To be clear, Jack White didn't play Elvis in *a* film.

hella mad white dudes in the comments as per usual

The Rialto, CA experiment with them reduced use of excessive force by 90% and all use of force by over 50%. And that was in a department that already used cameras on their tasers, audio recorders, and cameras on their cars. In jurisdictions starting from zero for police monitoring the effect would be even greater.

No, believers in evo psych think psychological traits are inborn and are unchanged over the millenia. It's a reductive and narrow view that is based on human minds being static, the exact opposite of what you are claiming it does. That is why people laugh at it and the people who subscribe to it.

Evolutionary psychology is one big hypothesis without any empirical evidence to back it up. It's a thought experiment, not a hard science. There is no way to prove through experiment or data analysisthat the cause of a particular observed behavior is rooted in evolutionary needs. For one thing, very very very few…

I dismiss this because I'm an actual scientist who understands important things like empirical data and confirmation bias.

And you cannot just attribute anything involving our psychology to speculation of evolution and ancient societies. That's not how science works. And once again, no one is denying evolution, we're just pointing out that these bullshit evo psych speculations are easily refuted by basic anthropology and sociology. You…

Does this...are we... are we echoing evopsych bullshit about men being driven by sex and women being driven by money?

"Not everything is racist"
