Since when have men faced any lasting negative consequences for rape even when it’s convicted, let alone just accused. The only one who is going to face any lasting damage over this is the victim, because that’s how our society works.

I dyed my blonde hair a dark red/auburn for awhile. When I dyed it back, my dad told me he was relieved because the red hair made me look like a whore.

I was on a first date; we walked out of Transformers 2 as well. Right when the sexy blonde woman morphs into an evil robot and tries to kill Shia LeBoeuf with robot seduction sex or whatever the fuck.

Here’s your “hint”:

You do realise that nobody gives a fuck how you think we should do our hair, right?

Nobody is saying that slaves didn’t work. They are saying that using the term “workers” instead of “slave,” “captive,” “unpaid labourer” etc sanitises the truth and implies a level of choice and/or compensation.

Yeah probably the latter. That with the sheer embarrassment and not knowing what to say.

Uhhhh look up white male privilege, especially as it affects opportunities and public positions.

If you want to immediately lose your job, sure. Especially if they complain to your manager or owner.

Do we really have to go the “thin people suck at sex because they’re twigs” route?

Because when you’re mocking someone for their weight, you have no idea if they have a health issue or not. You’re just assuming they are lazy and eat pizza and nachos every night. That’s why she is upset—because people like you mock her all the time without knowing her health status. And either way—why do you think…

Don’t use your work email for your personal shit! It’s not that hard a rule to follow. It’s inappropriate, a lot of places have policies against it, and it leads you wide open to having your personal affairs (in this case: literally affairs) read by your boss.

When a person with an illness is missing, the police and media need to know about that illness. Not disclosing her mental illness and medication issue would have been a terrific way to get her shot by the police.

Her delivery? She didn’t write this article. Her quotes simply state that her daughter lives with mental illness and is off her medication—vital information for the police and public to know to find the kid and get her home in one piece.

Once information gets out, the media will keep reporting whether you want them to or not. The important thing here was for the child to be found and brought home safely. Unfortunately, that means that health issues will be released to the public.

I just read this aloud to my boyfriend and we are howling with laughter. That is hilarious.

I’m so sorry—that’s horrifying. My mom was extremely anti snooping—I once asked her to read a journal entry of mine and help me process my feelings, and she was visibly uncomfortable and said she doesn’t believe in reading your kids’ private stuff. I had to ask very earnestly before she relented and read the passage.…

It’s not that women think being nice will work—they just think it’s unforgivable or impossible be any other way.

Must we with “the boo-hoo the poor little rapist patriarchy hurts men too he’s just as much a victim as she is!”?

No, I don’t think so. It is simply not true that boys and girls are socialized to be equally polite in situations like this. This is 100% a misogyny thing—that women are raised from birth to be as polite and accommodating as possible in all situations. Men are praised for being outspoken, boundary-pushing, assertive.…
