Seriously though, why do so many people in the comments keep ignoring that part of the story?! She clearly stated that she felt uncomfortable and made a run for it. Given his creepy behaviour afterwards I daresay she did the right thing.

Based on this guy’s INSANE overreaction and creepy AF efforts to track her down to get his money back, my guess is the date had already been going horribly and she was looking for a way out. I can’t believe there are responses on this thread saying they’re equally shitty people. She texted in a movie; he is contacting…

I’m not going to comment on the details of her crime, sentencing, or incarceration-those things have been endlessly litigated and I won’t change anyone’s mind at this point.

I assume that Assange is at this very moment packing his belongings and getting ready to turn himself over to US officials.

I hope she has a support system waiting outside. Living depressed is a struggle, living as a trans person has some challenges I can’t even begin to imagine, getting over systemic abuse on prison and being an ex-con is super hard, and having half the country hating you added on to that must be really fucking hard.

I’m not going to go into the ins and outs of her case, I’ve expressed those many times before regarding her crime and punishment and what my views on both were.

For Christ’s sake, it’s been long enough to be done with this bullshit. She did NOT “willfully endanger lives.” She revealed crimes. Any retaliation for those crimes is on the people who committed them and those who covered them up. She’s a whistleblower. Not a traitor. We should be pinning medals on her.

While I admire your strength and power here, we have to remember this is also about protecting those without the strength and power to stand up for themselves.

I’ve never had a tiny waist or cute butt (but my tits are surprising perky even now) but I have some perspective on this. Ive never felt great about my body, I lost 100lbs and I still don’t most of them time, but sometimes I do! My arms are the worst of it. I have so much extra skin and thanks to allergies I have…

I never fit what’s considered attractive, even as a teen/young adult, even when I was thin (for me). My shoulders were too big, my thighs too thick, my jaw too square. I never had the perky bosoms or small waist. But it was still a shock to age and become invisible to other people. I can’t help but think it must be…

On the other hand, many people who had the looks really struggle with losing them because they defined themselves over their looks. Like, how do you think dani mathers will deal with aging?

But I really do wonder if it’s as easy to have this perspective if you never had anything to be “proud of” in the past?

Honest question: If you never “had a cute butt, perky tits and tiny waist” ever in your life, would you feel so confident at 67? I’m pretty positive you’re saying you’ve experienced both ends of the spectrum, so you have some perspective. And that’s valid. But I really do wonder if it’s as easy to have this…

Right on! Have some tigers:

When I was in my 2o’s, I had a cute butt, perky tits and tiny waist. (But no silicone tits right under my chin.) Now I’m almost 67. After two pregnancies and a hard bout with breast cancer 18 year ago, I have a saggy ass, thick waist, poochy tummy and lopsided boobs. I still go to the gym to increase my muscle mass,…

“No one that I can think of (including myself) would wish to be photographed and posted on social media in such a private moment. It is a serious invasion of body autonomy and privacy no matter how “ideal” a person looks naked.” Exactly. The body-shaming is a completely separate issue. First, it’s the violation of…

I remember when “People of Walmart” became a thing and everyone thought it was hilarious, and all I could think was that in my worst embarrassing moment, someone will snap a photo lol

As a woman who probably falls into the category of ideal Western beauty standards, I find this woman’s actions incredibly repugnant. No one that I can think of (including myself) would wish to be photographed and posted on social media in such a private moment. It is a serious invasion of body autonomy and privacy no…

I hate it when people do awful things and then distance themselves by saying “That wasn’t me! That’s not who I am!”

When this happened I felt visceral vicarious shame as a fat person who goes to the gym. I couldn’t bring myself to go into the locker room for weeks. Fuck this woman and her sorry excuses.
