This is kinda why it’s confusing. Maybe it shouldn’t be called “Rape Culture”

hahahahaha

Just pull your shorts up over your belly button lol. Is your torso that long?

Most guys I know tuck the chord in their shirts. Never had it ripped out

"Fuck Frat-PAC!"

True, but honorable is subjective. Chances are that if he was expelled based on that he'd launch a lawsuit that Columbia could potentially lose or be forced to settle. I can understand from an administrator's perspective that it might be less costly based on what has been established to just let him finish his degree.

I love Em, but that's just fucking sad. Wait, I do think Wiz Khalifa's Black and Yellow topped the charts, but that was around the Steelers vs Packers Superbowl in 2011. I think that might be the last rap song by a black lead artist that topped the charts. (The abomination that is Flo Rida definitely count).

Kendrick's so talented but the direction he's chosen to go is one where few of his fans can follow.

Wage gap is not that easy to understand. I've read so many of these studies (including a few that you posted) with conflicting implications. Here in Ontario, the regulators behind the Pay Equity Act explicitly state that statisticians estimate that only between 10 to 15% of the overall pay gap is attributable to…

well either our standards on pedo depiction are currently too high or our standards on rape depictions are too low. So I agree that the net effect is that there is a double standard. I just don't see that changing any time soon, also thanks to 50 Shades and shit

if people could get away with making virtual pedo porn, they would. They can get away with making rape porn regardless of how distasteful, so they do. It's like that study thar showed that more men would rape if they knew they could get away with it. We're just another kind of animal really so I wouldn't be suppressed…

funny how no gamergaters are talking about this, I didn't even know it was a thing till I found on good ol' Kotaku

Well creepiness (as subjective as that term is) and aggressiveness are not universal male characteristics. If a girl sees a guy she finds attractive, your statement kind of assumes that she does not approach him because he might be creepy and aggressive, which doesn't make sequential sense. Some women do approach, but…

To me that's just like saying Justin Timberlake's first solo album was a rip off of MJ. Who didn't think that was MJ's music the first time they heard it?

Have you compared the two songs? Besides the instrumental which bears the greatest similarity, one song did NOT rip off the other. Justin Timberlake's first solo album was mostly stylistically inspired by Michael Jackson, under this precedent, MJ's estate could sue and say that it "invokes the feel" of MJ. That's why…

I commend what this lady did in her capacity as a parent of a child. What I'm saying is that you can't extend the application of her counsel to society at large effectively, because it doesn't address one of the fundamental causes of this imbalance.

They will eventually, following Japan's lead in adopting an "otaku" - like culture that's more apathetic to romance relationships and sex in general.

Funny how "i" won grammy for best rap song, but I rarely heard that song on radio and it finished outside the top 50 on the Billboard 2014 Rap/R&B Top 100 chart.

I agree and as I mentioned in a previous comment, if we're pursuing true gender equality in society, the expectation of the approach needs to be more evenly spread across the genders.

The biggest problem here that no one addresses is that boys are taught/expected to pursue, while girls expect to be pursued. In a society that embraces true gender equality, that needs to change.
