    As Eldritch already pointed out Plan B =/= the abortion pill (RU-486). Beyond that though, their insurance may not cover elective abortions. If they have their insurance through the state exchange, it's outright banned from covering abortions under Pennsylvania law. Twenty-five states total have similar bans on

    Hey! We're both in Renakitty's "turning words around" club. High five!

    Quick reading? You posted this thread 50 minutes ago.

    Maybe YOU should read your comments before you post them, because I read them all and YES, you are being a sexist asshole.

    It's a shame people like you think that women who took photos which they never intended to be distributed should have to protect their "dignity". It shouldn't affect their dignity one damn bit, and that attitude is totally sexist and only applied to women. It's a shame that you're not judging the people that stole

    I fail to see how sex positivity plays into this at all, this is about objectification. It says so right in the article: "She was treated like a literal object." Notice that he referred to her as something compelling to watch, not someone.

    Even though he's from Santa Rosa (as I've just learned from the comments) +1 for mentioning Barstow.

    This makes me so mad. That he's hiding behind "logic" while illogically conflating one variable (if the rapist was known to the victim) with another (the level of trauma/violence experienced) makes me really fucking sad because I know he's not the only one who thinks like this. I also can't for the life of me think

    Ugh, thank you. I'm currently posting up a storm in the Gawker version of this story. The number of people defending him acting like an asshole.. is... wow.

    Pink Pad? If not, what period app do you use?

    ITA. What makes the husband's spreadsheet so fucked up is his use of passive-aggressive shaming as a form of communication. Oh, and that he sent it to her during her important business trip then refused to answer his phone. He set out to cause the most amount of damage that he could.

    Yeah, I'm from Michigan and I was unaware this was a suburb of Grand Rapids. That this story never said Wyoming, MI was unnecessarily confusing.

    Because being used as a warm body for someone else to masturbate into is such a thrilling prospect.

    I was thinking the same thing.

    Would that be because they question a turn off or because upon being asked they realized they didn't actually want it? That someone might say no, leave, or just not have sex with you when you check for consent isn't a valid reason not to check. If someone really isn't into being asked more than once I'm sure that

    I am sick of this this idea that asking for consent ruins the sexual experience. Most of talking dirty to someone in the moment involves telling the other person what you would like them to do to you, or asking someone if they'd be into you doing something specific to them. There are lots of ways to verify and affirm

    I'm not defending NS but being a pop star and fellating 20 guys at a bar for a bottle of Cava are 2 distinct things.

    Every woman has different needs for birth control, and all should be covered. Also, emergency contraception is a key component in rape kits. They shouldn't get a pass for failing to go after all birth control (not that you are giving them one, but just in general, they shouldn't).

    That's great but they're NOT abortificants and it shouldn't matter if they falsely believe that they are. Health insurance is part of a workers compensation. If it's up to anyone to make moral judgements outside of scientific fact about what is or is not an abortificant, it's the person who would be using that form of
