Read the top story in the post. They have a screencap of his tweet. This article claims he was talking about something else, but he has yet to fully clarify. http://www.dailydot.com/news/stephen-k…

Yes! So many good suggestions in this thread. TBH I've been seething about this since I posted the comment, and I had to come back to air more frustrations. This Dylan Farrow story is exactly why women don't report sexual abuse and assault. First, she tells the truth and is forced to go through numerous invasive

Could you elaborate? I've heard a few bad stories, but I've always had a good experience when I've flown with them. I was under the impression the things reported were more isolated incidents than systemic problems, but I'm willing to change my mind.

I just feel the children on shows like that are being exploited, which is why Toddlers and Tiaras and Courtney Stodden are on the list. If they are popular, then more shows like them will appear and I don't want to encourage that kind of thing.

Welp, Stephen King has just been added to my celebrity/business boycott list. Others on the list include, but are not limited to: Woody Allen, Roman Polanski, Chris Brown, Terry Richardson, R. Kelly, Dance Moms, anything Toddlers and Tiaras related, Courtney Stodden (for her own good), American Apparel, and Carl's

The fact that they're on a bus has me scared. Kyle doesn't have good luck with buses.

To me, this season is horror in that it's very disturbing. Torture, incest, and abuse factor in heavily. I feel sick sometimes after watching it, but never scared. Season 1 was scary because there was actual danger involved, but that really isn't the case in this season.

I was wondering about this, as well. Where were the emergency responders? How hard would it have been to find an injured, impaired woman? It's not like she could have been moving very quickly.

Yes, exactly. Don't open the door and call the cops. It's not like she was in his house threatening him. The fact that he even had the shotgun was a complete overreaction. I remember saying over and over during the Zimmerman trial, "Why did he even get out of the car?" when people tried to defend him. I have a

THANK YOU! The Newsroom is so cheesy. I feel like we're supposed to think it's deep because of HBO and Aaron Sorkin, but it sucks. The whole Maggie/Jim thing seems like a copy The Office's Pam/Jim relationship, but with all the charm taken out of it. And I know Sorkin is known for his quick dialogue, but it

I started wearing makeup when I was 11/12, but I stopped within a year in an attempt to make some sort of feminist statement. These girls are at an experimental age, so I wouldn't worry about them just yet.

I feel like I've offended you, and if so I apologize. My mother actually gave me that advice after years of therapy. She was married to a man who was a cross-dresser, a sex addict, and who also might have been in the closet, so she wasn't dealing with your garden variety marital issues. The "Stepfordize" portion of

My mother told me that relationships are like a dance. If one person changes up their steps, or stops completely, the other person simply can't continue on with the pattern as before. So when someone says "change your behavior, change the relationship" it's totally true, but that change doesn't have to constitute

Can anyone tell me how this kind of environment has affected their brothers? My stepmother is constantly calling herself fat and making negative comments about her body. My half brother is twelve and he joins right in, calling her fat and patting her "belly." I always tell her to stop, not only because it's

Yep, pregnant right now due to the withdrawal method. Don't even think about it, people. I even asked my OB for a diaphragm, but she laughed in my face and said that "no one uses them anymore." When will Vasalgel ever be ready?

My friend is Latina and she has a white husband. Her sons both look Latino, not to mention exactly like her, and she still gets asked if she's the nanny. I have a white friend with a Haitian husband, and people tell her how wonderful she is for adopting. I was relating a story about interacting with a friend's

I went to BYU, where the campus is located on a hill above the surrounding town. There was a particular dark pathway referred to as "Rape Hill," but I never heard of any rape controversy on campus the entire time I was there. One thing I really liked about going to school there was that the campus was littered with

I've been a Mormon my whole life, and I've never encountered the whole "submissive woman" thing. The Church really stresses that marriages should be equal partnerships, and there is also a huge focus on personal revelation and personal choice. It seems to me that Mormon doctrine is a lot different from the

Fellow Mormon feminist here. I'm a little late to the party, but I just wanted to thank you for everything you've said in this thread. You did a spectacular job representing us.
