"And even if it was, even if the 8% amount of false rape accousations were true, that's still way too much."

Cops are paid & trained to uphold AND follow the law, not to be over-assertive in every situation or overreact to every perceived provocation.

Certainly not a trained professional who should know when to walk away.

I worked for years in a female-dominated environment, almost 3-1. And a great many of the young women were getting pregnant, some multiple times. At one staff party, there was a conga line of a dozen of the most heavily pregnant and I know there were at least 6 more that didn't attend or participate.

They could have a special event with prize money for who can run the distance fastest in heels.

Poe's Law FTW

I feel your pain. A little, light late-night reading lead me to a couple stories about honor killings incl one where the father, brother, uncle & aunt of a Pakistani teen shot her twice, stuffed her in a bag and dumped her in a river - but she survived.

I think he's in it for the poon; he's the tang.

Where's the hygiene manual for the players?

I guess that explains where there's nothing about making sure their assholes are clean too.

I'm pretty sure that the Japanese have topped every fucked-up kink that's ever been filmed in the USA and invented a few.

I'd heard about the sex toy case and thought that was hilarious. In all fairness, Dubya Bush is not a native Texan, even if he was elected Governor.

I think it's the hippo habit of splatter-poop that's the real problem

Yes, there are many wonderful things about it and I know some who've emigrated there and don't ever plan on returning - but that doesn't mean they don't have some very, very strange things by our standards.

Japan has hugely (no pun intended) tentacle-porn cartoons, fer fucks sake and you can buy used schoolgirl panties from vending machines at some street corners

You're entitled to your o-peen-ion

ONE person noticed to the point of taking offense. If you were present, I guess that would be a guaranteed total of 2, certainly a LOT less than "all other human beings".

Just because the lifeguard lost his shit over it and you find it sexual stimulating doesn't mean everyone else would. There are a LOT of men who are sexually excited by the sight of pantyhose & feet.
Should those be banned in public?

Go fuck yourself with your "think about the children" bullshit argument. No little kid would really give a flying fuck. And there's nothing decent about publicly shaming a person or going around beating those who don't conform with sticks because they don't conform to your idea of a "fucking functioning society".

I've thought, more than once, of taking my grandmother's maiden name. Of any of my blood relatives, she's the only one I've ever really felt a strong attachment to.
