Well there's your problem right there.

No, she is not required to be nice to someone who is being creepy and stalkery and not accepting her boundaries just because he might be awkward. I don't give a fuck if some rapey asshole wants to get away with it because he's "awkward" whiiiine. Stop being a rapey asshole. End of problem.

Pro-tip: You aren't going to change people's minds about all this sexism

Literally, the minute a white person moves into a neighborhood , the roads are better paved, less potholes, more shopping areas, etc (all great things) but the things that make Brooklyn home like that mom and pop coffee shop where you could get great coffee for a dollar is now replaced by Starbucks.

I'm sorry, but with science being on the side of spanking = hitting as well as, I dunno, THE DICTIONARY, why do you expect that anyone gives a shit that you personally— as a spanking supporter— find it problematic to point out that spanking = hitting? Why is your biased personal interpretation of the issue more…

LOL Science says you're wrong and that means that you're rationalizing as a non-expert, so...

I know that not to be true. So does my kid.

Thanks for proving my point for me.

I'll take that bet. You can just send me the $50 since you effectively concede by neither reading the piece nor accepting the stance of someone who has.

The unsolicited dickpic issue does seem to be a problem. Perhaps there could be an exception for situations where the naked person had no reasonable expectation of privacy.

I'll also add that I'm sick to death of seeing victim shaming being put to use in regards to Gabby's shitty behavior whenever the subject of her being raped comes up.

I made that comment because she was contradicting the opinion of black women in the comments. She also commented on my chivalry piece that "she" clearly didn't read, hates Richard Sherman, hates when gay people mention that they're gay (if black), calls women whores all the time, and otherwise shows signs of being a…

According to a witness, the woman was jogging with headphones in and her arm was grabbed from behind by persons unknown to her, so she yanked her arm away. This is the initial resisting arrest claim by the officers, even though she had reason to fear for her safety in the very likely case that she was unaware that the…

Especially in cases where the arrest was based on her reaction to behavior that could have indicated that sexual assault was a threat to her right then.

The "resisting arrest" change, according to a witness who filmed it is because an officer grabbed her arm from behind while she was jogging with headphones in, and she yanked her arm away like any other person would.

Hey Burt, the article that LaChatgris linked to mentioned the California Highway Patrol, which doesn't make a lot of sense on the surface. Just FYI, that's the name of our state police force. They're not traffic cops like the name implies. It's a dumb name IMO.

Because it was a lone attacker, who was apprehended, and the police believe that there are no attacks planned by third parties. It's not that tough to figure out.

It's still creepy to know that you could know people who were hurt or involved. Glad to see you're hanging in there. Let us know if you need extra kitten hugs.

No, honey, you're interested in feminism because it is opposed to your personal belief that straight white men are experts on everything because they are themselves. You hate feminism because feminists stand up to you when you spout bullshit and that is unacceptable to you.

This seems to be a prevailing dogma among scientists that as an outsider I both can't be bothered to research nor try to understand, the idea that rape is not about sex,
