I hope one day we’ll have a society that believes the victims of sexual assault and rape when they share their stories.

Figeuroa doesn't seem to understand that one can be part of a marginalized, oppressed class and still hold prejudicial, biased opinions of other groups. There are, after all, white WOMEN who are transphobic. There are BLACK men who are homophobic. There are GAY men who are racist. Being part of a marginalized class…

I didn't know that Beyonce, above all other stars, was obligated to make a song about the protests. I wonder if she knows this.

Yes, rapes happen all the damn time. The numbers you've quoted are A: reported rapes and B: only in the United States.

We live in a culture where rape happens all the damn time. Where rape is dismissed, excused, and minimized. Where women are routinely not believed, and as a result, they don't report and they sit in silent torment for much of their lives. So yes, when a woman says she's been raped, I believe her, bc based on the odds,…

I'm pretty much thinking that I don't give a rat's ass what other people think about how I wear my hat. If I want to wear it backwards when I'm 75 years old, then I'm going to do it. It's not about what other people like or want, and I don't exist for their approval. How I dress is about me, no one else. The input of…

I don't agree with this at all. We live in a country where lies and misinformation about sex (whether hetero or homosexual) affect peoples' lives all the time. Accurate information is essential if people are to make responsible choices in their sex lives.

What a scumbag move. That poor woman is going to be inundated with sexist and misogynistic comments from the scum of the Earth. And Winston is going to continue facing no punishment.

That's nice.

It's nice to see someone else realizing the pope has only been shifting the tone of what he says. Just like his "shift" on homosexuality. He hasn't changed his opinion or the church's stance. He's changed the way he talks about things. That smooth talking has worked on a lot of people, probably in an effort to seem…

I'm an atheist too, and this is all just a load of talk. Evolutionary theory explains the diversity of life on the planet and there is not only no need for any deity (let alone any Yahweh), there is no room. The pope is trying to have his cake and eat it too. "See, science and religion can co-exist". Uh uh. They…

Oh gee, that time honored advice for women to 'travel with someone they know'. But where's the follow up advice for women who have traveled with someone they know...and have been raped by them? Given that a great many rape victims knew their attacker, this piece of "advice" isn't terribly helpful. Plus it once again…

::blinks:: People not only believe in astrology, but many of them are so callous and heartless as to get mad at Miller for getting sick and not getting them their precious forecasts?

'Campers' is not a term that's specific to any geographical region. I've been in the service industry for 22 years (started at a pizza buffet place and moved on to restaurant serving, and then bartending for the last 15 years), and I've seen people of all backgrounds camping at tables. The most annoying campers to…

Good job Joe! We need more people in positions of power to speak up against domestic violence!

Thanks for being an ally JK. People who don't like it can either deal with it or they can F*** off. I'm tired of people whining and moaning about homosexuality as if it is something horrible, or a marker of immorality. There's nothing wrong with being gay. Personally, I had problems accepting I was gay for years…
