I DON’T KNOW WHAT WE’RE YELLING ABOUT!!!
Roman Polanski drugged and raped a girl who never consented. And I don’t want to give children consent to have sex. I just don’t think that a rock star having sex with a 15 year old groupie in the 1970s amounts to anywhere near what Savile did and honestly I think it’s offensive to his victims to compare the two.
So....here’s the thing. Young women either have agency, or they don’t. They either have the right to make their own choices regarding their sexuality, or they don’t. You can’t champion a teenage girl’s right to sex education and birth control and abortion without parental consent and then turn around and say she’s a…
I think at the end of the day it’s what Solonit said, it was the social norm (though not acceptable by any means) of the time and therefore its impossible to make a clear black and white claim, 1970's standards are incredibly different than the standards of today. By todays standards it is 100% rape. The only way to…
This is very well written. My feelings on this are complicated, but my instinct is that women should get to own their sexual history, whether its morally problematic or not. If Maddox says she’s okay with it, I believe her. If she had said she was raped, I also believe her.
Dr. Seuss (Theodor Geisel) was a liberal Democrat who certainly would not have approved of Cruz’s use of his book.
Occupy was kind of funny, the people who it started are more like the Sanders supporters we see now. The more professional super-lefty activists who are skeptical of Bernie now were skeptical of Occupy at first as well. Then they jumped in and took over and made sure it would never actually accomplish anything by…
But see, this is where I'm totally confused and why I've mostly just shut up about his run for mayor: if getting an office is the wrong thing to do — and if their motives are purely selfish then yeah I'd agree — what exactly is the right step to take? There needs to be a dismantling of the entire system, but how are…
Not to be a huge downer (which means I’m about to be a downer) but I’m glad they don’t mention what the rumor was.
You seem like fun.
It’s an inflammatory auto-immune disease that hits not just the joints but one’s organs. It can be quite fatal if you get uncontrollable inflammation in the heart, lungs, brain, or other vital organ. You can also get a whole host of secondary problems, plus you have to take some fairly harsh meds. RA used to kill…
I appreciate the comedic tone. And yes, these guys are jamokes. But they’re also dangerous jamokes. And the way we respond sets a precedent. If the government ignores this, you will embolden these guys further. Now it’s a wildlife refuge (“haha you occupied the least important federal building in the country”), but…

Throw them in clown prison.

It’s amazing how they never see the correlation. “I’m oppressed because none of these stuck-up feminazi bitches will fuck me! And Jennifer Lawrence is a fat, ugly whore who I wouldn’t fuck with someone else’s dick!”
Holy shit. That teacher was an asshole, I’m so sorry you had to go through that D:
Also - confident people are SCARY! Especially if the person is a woman who gives zero fucks about your boner.
