Yup: what if I draw the line and he crosses it. I remember thinking that once in college: right now this is just sex I’m not into and don’t particularly want, but if I say no and he doesn’t stop then it’s rape. So, I resigned myself to it BUT, then I puked on him and that took care of that.

YES. I call this “rape by attrition.” There are men who’ve learned they can force women—or anyone—to do whatever they want, simply by being relentlessly persistent. They’re like predators who wound their prey and follow it until it succumbs to exhaustion and blood loss. These fuckers have made passive-aggression work

If there is a woman alive who has not had this experience, I’d like to meet her, because she is a rare, rare creature. I’m so grateful to you for sharing your story and elaborating on the complexity of consent. So many people want to make it a black-and-white, yes-or-no issue, and the more people who stand up and say

Oh yeah. Too aggressive often comes up for me.

Bullshit.

“I’m just telling you what my childhood was like. Not my childhood, but someone else’s.”

I mean...clothing in general is optional only for a few, but that doesn’t stop people from wanting to talk about it?

I think Rapunzel is a notary.

Yeah, this really rubbed me the wrong way. Singing about drugs does not mean one is actively on drugs. Besides, she knew who he was when she chose this man to be her child’s father.

Not to be all “Leaning In” or anything but...thoughtful partner selection is actually really important and helpful

Right? These guys are all about going out in a blaze of glory. They are not about going out hungry, cold, and with the only bathroom non-functioning. Close them off and their "rah rah militia freedums" bullshit will cool off real quick.

Well, you can be re-convicted. For example, you’re convicted, your conviction is vacated, and then you’re convicted after a new trial. But, in this case, the conviction wasn’t vacated, only the sentence (because it was illegal).

I hear the best way to win a legal custody battle is to bitch about it on twitter...

I would disagree, Ammon, “peaceful people” rarely take over Federal buildings with arms and then refuse to leave and threaten to engage in violence if they are forced to.

“had their sentences vacated, and were re-convicted this fall”

Hi. Why do you continue to refer to them as “Armed militia”? They are white men armed to the teeth and have taken over government property. Illegally. They are not a “militia” and you, and everyone, knows this bit of information. What is the guideline you are following that requires (?) you to refer to them with that

Woman Has Brain, Doesn’t Understand Dumbass Men

I’m of the opinion that there’s no bad time to wear gorgeous jewels. Wear it!!

Well, yeah. When you land a Corellian YT-1300 light freighter on it, there’s bound to be environmental concerns. That’s not exactly a starport, Rey, geez.

I feel they liked the location a little too much.. I strongly felt that the closing shot should have stopped about 15 seconds earlier, on the close up of Ray. That image stood out for me immediately. Not the 360 sweeping heli shot.
