SPOT ON.

And men call us irrational.

Totally. It's heartbreaking to be reminded how far we have to go as a society... the kind of conversations that are still happening about domestic violence, the number of women who are still being abused and the blame and skepticism that is still leveled at women who's abuse is made public. It's astonishing, yet not…

This is essentially what this conversation is like:

Right?! All the right ups I've seen about this have barely even mentioned Janay or what actually happened... Just that Rice "made a mistake" or "the incident". It's like she doesn't exist. Except when she apologizes for herself, then they make her the center of attention.

I had to watch/ help my mom take care of her parents when they were dying of cancer, and I could NEVER have handled that on my own in my 20s. I'm sorry you had to experience that yourself :(

All of this. It would be SO hard to take care of a sick, elderly parent when you're in your mid-20s. That time of life is super hard and precarious and poor, I cannot imagine having to take care of my mother on top of everything else. Not to mention losing your mother at a young age... I know a few girls who's mothers…

Never more appropriate.

It's only polite, I'm sure he'd appreciate the question. Can you imagine what God's dick would be like? Jeepers.

God doesn't care about your boner.

Suck a bag of dicks, Ray.

I don't see this so much as "LOL skinny girls with no ass can't dance" and more "look at these very young, starved models who have no muscle or dance training, try to do some difficult dance moves that they've just learned so that people can laugh at them on the internet."

So how is this anything but a fight lost by a woman?

The only point you're proving is that men get upset when age appropriate, respectful pronouns aren't used for them. You were the one that had to point out that Harvest Moon called a group of male persons "boys", instead of "young men".

Oh the sheer inconvenience of being a man in our new matriarchal world!

I love (hate) when men get upset when the term MAN or YOUNG MAN isn't applied to them, when 60 year old women get called "girls" every day even in professional settings. Also, when men become furious if someone calls them "dear" or "honey"... welcome to our daily lives! The casual condescension is as annoying as it is…

This is only a thing NOW? Like as of September 8th, 2014?? WTF.

Now THAT sounds like the compassionate, selfless work of people who claim to love and support every fetus, baby and mother (HAHA) regardless of circumstance (as long as they go to term with every single fertilized egg).

Yep. Even the most shallow digging into how the female reproductive system actually works reveals how completely and utterly full of shit the anti-choicers are about their love of feti.
