Thank you for your perspective. I don't mind the mansplaining. It was my birthday today and I went out to a couple bars and I'm just done. It just doesnt make snt sense at this point. Granted, I was with a group of girls and I wasn't genuinely trying to get laid tonight.

I am fucking dying right now. Can I use this? Actually, fuck you and your permission; I'm going to use it liberally.

I'm a criminal defense attorney and I have to say that this woman's statement yesterday horrified me. She essentially said, "hey, we didn't know what we had but felt you, the public, should have a chance to hear all the evidence." Since when is that a reason to put someone on trial? Public pressure? Jesus. The actual…

Totally. I'm all about the rule of lenity. You get more just results and it balances the power/resources of the state against the individual. I guess we'll never know about that retrial issue though. Craziness.

Once more with feeling:

Thank you so much for this information. It's extremely helpful. You are very kind and I hope that others in the same boat also see this. Nice to know there are good men in the military. :)

This video is amazeballs. Thanks for sharing it!

Thanks for your kind words. Unfortunately, I fell into such a deep depression short of taking my own life that I resigned. To this day, I get asked by friends, potential dates, prospective employers, employers: "So, why did you leave ____? Couldn't hack it? Har har." I get pestered with so many questions about the…

Oh my God I needed to see this so much. Thank you for sharing it, and thank you for your service. Every time some asshole tries to argue that rape culture doesn't exist I'm throwing them as hard as I can at this video.

Thank you for this. As a former service academy cadet, I was date raped and then treated like a criminal afterwards, while the man walked away just fine and is living his super successful life. I also had a roofie slipped into my drink by an upperclassmen while drinking with him and my girlfriend. I knew something…

Actually, it's spelled "personnel."

That video's great - I also love 2:49.

Wow I feel like that would be a much more effective video than the drivel that they showed us in "The Invisible War" (i.e. never go anywhere alone! take a buddy!). I wish it had more views on YT??!!

All the fun stuff we didn't learn in professional responsibility. Maybe they thought it went without saying?

There are plenty of drugs that started out with a prescription that are now available OTC. Most OTC drugs come with warning labels and have side effects. I didn't know that I could get an ulcer from taking too many Ibuprofen till I got one. I'm thinking about the amount of women who don't have insurance and can't get…

As a straight man, I think I have the necessary distance to talk about this objectively. Now, obviously the political tensions between Saudi Arabia and the UAE are one factor, but I think dismissing the well documented link between hostility and repressed sexuality in highly masculized and patriarchal cultures is...…

Prisoners cannot legally give their consent to have sex with corrections officers. Regardless of gender. Legally speaking, the corrections officers raped these prisoners (and we really have no idea of the details of these relationships and how coercive they might have been). I really cannot believe a site so…
