Even if there is a double-standard (questionable, and your use of words like "alarmist misinformation" makes me skeptical of your stance on any of this) it doesn't mean that women aren't being treated badly in terms of rapes.

Surprise, someone came around and used the "two wrongs make a right!" argument.
Women do have some privilege in society that men arguably do not, but that's immaterial to this argument, and not surprisingly, the first thing the typical MRA wannabe goes for.
I feel like there is something so incredibly creepy about a father giving his daughter a purity ring... Especially when there's a pledge or ceremony involved (I assume such things exist because I saw it on Shameless haha). It's like, is her virginity something that belongs to you?
It's really the worst. I saw other dads joke about that kind of thing in front of my dad when my sister and I were teenagers and he just looked at them like they're fucking idiots.
God, I hate it when people say things about polishing shotguns when a boy comes to take a daughter out on a date. And on the other hand, the son gets a pat on the back and the keys to the car to take out a girl. It's so gross and offensive.
Never have I wanted 7 dildos more in my life.
I just said this somewhere else. They shouldn't be able to play it both ways. There is either a separation of church & state or there isn't; they don't get to receive money and ignore the strings that are attached with them.
Wait, I'm confused. And I apologize for asking about your personal affairs, so please feel free to tell me to fuck off, if you don't feel like answering.
In case anyone missed the maternity leave thing...
Absolutely. You can't have it both way. You cant receive federal money and then be exempt from federal mandates. Make up your mind. Be either a religious institution or an employer.
OK. Our turn. How about we advocate for the Catholic Church to no longer be tax exempt. And I would also like them to be back taxed. Also? Kittens for every child. Just to balance out all the spite I'm feeling right now.
That's insanity. There is no way that any significant amount of the porn watching audience is just going to pretend to live in a pre-internet world based on the miniscule chance that it will be made public in the future. This story is newsworthy because of how much of freak occurance that scenario is.
I understand that the list of books I take out at the library and my debit card transactions aren't exactly private either, but I'd still take a very dim view of that information being disseminated to the public by the courts.
Fragmented memory is also a symptom of trauma - like, say, from being raped. Police interviewing techniques focus on getting a linear timeline and key facts, but this is actually a horrible technique for trauma victims, not only because they tend to have trouble coming up with linear memories but because it can put…
Because it's a bunch of stupid, sexist, meddling that puts a barrier between people and needed emergency care, that effectively insures a great deal of people will not have any coverage because they can't afford to pay even more outside their existing insurance plan, that opens the door on declaring anything and…
The one and only time Megyn Kelly insists a Middle Eastern dude is white.
How could you misquote the best sentence in the whole darn article? "Jesus was a white man, too. He was a historical figure. That's a verifiable fact — as is Santa. I just want the kids watching to know that." Santa being Caucasian is a VERIFIABLE FACT. Obvs.
If it actually works like that… I have never wanted a drug more in my life than I do right now. I am completely unable to focus… and it makes studying for finals a total nightmare. Seems like something you wouldn't take on a day to day basis… but rather, as Lindy said, you would use them to get through life's little…
I was diagnosed in grad school. (Women are WAY more likely to have inattentive-type ADD rather than hyperactive-type ADHD, so a lot of us learn to cover our symptoms through most/all of our education. Side note: when we talk about overdiagnosis of AD/HD and overprescription, we're talking almost exclusively about…
