As if a rapist hides behind the bushes waiting for a girl in a mini-skirt, and then if one doesn't show up and only long-sleeved, pants-wearing women walked past, he'd be like 'oh well, guess I'll just go home then!'

I am the same as the original poster in that I loved his music as a teenager and still recognize his talent today while being disappointed at the fact that he hasn't necessarily evolved in the context department (although he is more open about his drug addiction/recovery, mental health issues like OCD, and emotional

But there's still birth control that you need a medically trained professional to insert (IUDs, implants, etc).

Not to mention that lots of straight couples engage in anal sex.

I know, right?!!!! The people profiled are downright scary, but the fact that a medical doctor does not even understand how pregnancy works is all the more terrifying. How she hasn't had her medical license revoked, I'll never understand.

I actually have experience working in mental health and I know the difference between suicidal thoughts driven by mental illness and a wish to b euthanised to end incurable, physical agony. You have further proven my point that you have no understanding of mental illness whatsoever as you have decided to go ahead and

I asked you for specific answers and you couldn't provide them. And suicide is not a mental illness, it is an action. Yes it is often driven by mental illness, but many mental health professionals differentiate between suicide that is driven by a mental illness and euthanasia that is driven by a desire to end physical

I'm Middle Eastern. I think women should have equal rights to men. What exactly are you so afraid of if women attend sports matches?

You have been all over the comments and not once have you shown this woman any respect. Did you actually read the article? She does not have a mental illness, she has terminal cancer. If you genuinely cared for this woman, you would not dismiss her opinions as mental illness.

'I simply wanted to tell American teenagers that saving sex for marriage was the only way to be 100 percent certain that you won't get pregnant. That's all.'

Its not murder, its an abortion. And I was referring to the fact that the poster (and many others) wouldn't exist if their mothers/grandmothers/foremothers hadn't had abortions - it was from the perspective of the poster, not their mother.

Exactly.

It can't write a letter. Its a fetus. Oh, and it might interest you to know that someone further up-thread wrote about how their mother had an abortion before they had them. If their mother hadn't had an abortion, then they wouldn't exist and neither would many other people whose mothers as well as ancestors had

Thank you. This is why I get so annoyed with the whole 'you wouldn't be here if your mother had an abortion' argument. There are many people who wouldn't be here if their mother/grandmother/foremother did not have an abortion.

Being anti-universal healthcare/welfare keeps many people down. Not just people who are poor, but people who are sick and disabled. Being anti-regulations keeps many people down as well. It takes away (or works to take away/be against) anti-discrimination laws, as well as environmental laws and health and safety laws.

A little OT but isn't the 'don't shit where you eat' line from Moonstruck? Still Olympia Dukakis though!

Saying 'I'm just like one of the guys' is as lame as saying 'I'm a cool person' without any irony. If you have to say it, you ain't it.

The ones who post and run are really annoying. If you genuinely have an opinion (even if you partly want to stir shit up) then you'd better be able to defend it. Its interesting that he/she didn't respond to any of the comments that addressed standard requirements. At least have the balls to admit that you were

Every other week there's a troll complaining that men are oppressed because they have to serve in the military and society treats them as disposable and women as valuable. Women enter the military and they argue that 'political correctness' is making the military lower their standards and that women shouldn't be in

All the state has to do is find some anti-abortion nut in her life to make up a bullshit story and testify against her. 'Oh, here's this substitute teacher she had in the 7th grade who claims they saw the girl talking to herself'. I bet if this was the other way around and a girl decided that she wanted to continue
