I’m not sure you understand what the word “literally” means. Or the word “zero.”

haha.

I live in Boston. Those theories are working much better than “cute” here, but since you’ve decided to be so grossly condescending, I’ll just invite you to go fuck yourself.

I agree with every word. Being scared to walk to my car because I have to pass a group of men. A man putting his arms around my waist at the grocery. It has to stop.

Mom of a typical (left coast, strongly Blue State) suburban 13 year-old football- and video game-loving boy here... We purposefully don’t have a door on our small rec room because I want to be able to listen to—and interject if ever necessary—what he and friends are doing/saying in there (you don’t get 100% privacy as

No, that’s not what I’m saying so take your outrage elsewhere. I didn’t say it was ok. I’m not fooling myself to think that some guys don’t talk about women’s bodies, because yeah, some guys do. And it’s completely stupid and immature. And it’s a discussion that should be addressed as well. But the point is this:

I wrote this earlier, but the way Trump and his mob continue to threaten reporters and our Free Press is one of the more disturbing aspects of this election. He is a would be dictator. A tyrant.

I am not American, I can not vote and yet I am crying because I am hearing all she is saying and she is so right and makes me a little sad she is not the president of the world right now.

My brother was a bit of a “bro” when he was a teenager. He’d grown out of it by the time he got to eighteen. He’s now happily married with a two year old daughter. He’s absolutely ashamed of the things he said when he was young and an idiot and is worried about his daughter when she hits pre-teen/teenager. He grew up

Let’s be clear here. It’s not the language he used. It’s not the fact that he said “pussy” and talked about sex. It’s the fact that he BRAGGED about ASSAULTING WOMEN. Do people really think women are horrified because a man said the word pussy?

My husband insists that he’s never heard locker room talk like that. In his younger years he said it wasn’t uncommon for some guys to comment on an attractive woman or make a stupid comment about boobs or something but says if any man had joked about assault there would have been a fight in those locker rooms. That

I wept at my desk as I listened. Too much of what Michelle said resonated. I remembered the times when I was followed to my car by a man I did not know. The times when a strange man stared just a little too long. The time when a man asked to see my chest in exchange for the product I was buying. The times (yes,

I was in a hockey locker room from age 3 until 17, and various others from then until I was 28, and I never heard that. Messed up stuff about how many women we would be getting, but never anything that bordered on assault (Variations on “When we’re in the NHL, chicks are going to be dying to date us”).

So what you’re saying is that Trump’s “presidential” temperament/behavior is equivalent to an asshole 13-year-old virgin’s. On that, we agree.

Junior high? Sure. Grown-ass men? I do not frequent men’s locker rooms but my husband, who played his fair share of sports, including ice hockey (not known for its delicate players) said he has heard some real trash talk but never bragging about the stuff Trump did. But he also said any guy who waltzed in and started

Indeed. The past week has left me feeling dirty, discouraged, and diminished. Even more so by the men and women who insist that lewd, crass behavior by men is normal and that the women who complain about it are hysterical. The men and women who are now talking about repealing the 13th amendment. The men and women

Basically I’m thinking a half-melted Peep

You lost them at “semi-coherent.”
