And she tries to situate them as “years later” the women interpret it this way, but it was at the time. The women immediately let him know it was a problem. This isn’t something that years later they decided.

What’s most troubling in that quote is that Yoffe has no notion of subjectivity for anyone but men accused of assault. Why is it that an accusation cannot be sufficient cause to result in the obliteration of someone’s psyche and desire to live, but that the obliteration of one’s psyche and desire to live sounds like an…

I used to read Dear Prudence and remember that while a lot of the advice was good, Emily Yoffee would go off the rails whenever anybody talked about rape or consent. It’s really odd that she would proactively choose write about rape and sexual harrassement stories in defense of the potential criminals. Even if she…

GodDAMN. This is classic “Look what you made me do” abusive shit. I am SO done with it.

I have had dozens of conversations with men from managers to the lowest level workers. And all of them now avoid any interaction with women they can. Managers won’t mentor them and even the construction guys I work with say they won’t get in elevators alone with a woman.

Your misogyny is pathological. Seek help.

Keep in mind, men are perfectly capable of reading situations and managing social cues when working with other men. They are not incapable of doing this shit. They willfully ignore it with women because they think they can get away with it.

I just don’t understand what’s so hard about it.

As a guy, I literally cannot understand how “attractive” is used as shorthand for “WOULD FUCK”, or more laterally, “CANNOT STOP FROM TRYING TO FUCK”. Mad people are attractive. Far more are ugly, but there’s lots of attractive people. So what? What does that have to do with anything? I don’t understand it.

Yesterday the guy at the counter at the little bitty liquor store I sometimes go to, and always joke around with when he’s there, complimented me on my dress. Then he stopped and said, “I’m sorry, I’m probably not supposed to say stuff like that.” I replied, “Of course you can! Everyone loves a good compliment. What…

But that process of deep moral reckoning involves coming to terms honestly with the terrible things you have done

Why do chinless conservative dorks like Miller and Seb Gorka think a goatee makes them look distinguished instead of making their mouth look like a bear’s asshole?

I know, I know, don’t feed trolls. But I gotta watch this bullshit disintegrate. I’m a sadist.

I had the exact same thought, but then was like no, that’s too specific no one will get it.

I’m not sure how that advice is even supposed to work from a Christian perspective. “We need to be more like those people who defied God, listened to satan, committed the original sin, and led to humanity being cast out of paradise.”

Any argument grounded in “just look at Adam and Eve” is trash and should be thrown in the garbage.

You wanna do an interesting alt history? How about one in which World War I didn’t happen, the great 19th century monarchical empires survived, and the Middle East was not partitioned. It’s truly the most crucial period in, I think world history, more so even than World War II, and you could do a lot with it.
