With absolutely ZERO self-reflection about what was said. They write stories about how Mindy said it's ridiculous to be asked these questions, without ever pausing and going, "Oh, she said that because we asked those questions!" Like, I would love to see a magazine not publish those quotes at all, and instead say

"Do you find it difficult to combine fatherhood and a career?"

Just because she's in charge of the show doesn't mean that the people who own the network, and are her bosses don't have say. There are probably 100 other people constantly telling her that her skin color and vagina are terrifying to middle america.

Mindy is not the first woman to say this in a magazine... and I love that other women do explain how frustrating it is. But what's more frustrating is that these magazines take down these quotes, and then form a story about them.

Someone asked Hillary Clinton that an interview when she was the Secretary of State. I think she responded, "Would you ask a man that?"

Number two, your eye makeup looks fabulous.

I said earlier today that I hope to some day be famous to be able to talk about how baby crazy I am as a dude.

I've previously opined about my regret at not being a journalist so I could have the opportunity to do just that.

Just once...JUST ONCE...I'd love to hear a reporter ask a male politician/musician/actor/director/doctor/judge/whatever ask the following questions:

Kudos to her. That is an offensive question.

So... essentially what you're saying is that only women who are willing to say they were raped in public are actually victims of rape? Okay, we're just gonna have to stop there because clearly I'll never understand your victim-blaming view of the word rape.

A few things, in short order.

Newsflash: Marital rape is a real thing. People in abusive relationships claim to be happy all the time. Rape does not have to be the violent, thrown-to-the-ground, with physical marks and obvious psychological trauma affair you think it does. Rape is a violation of the mind and the body.

As a 24/7 collared sub who chose to enter into a relationship with no safewords, let me tell you that I can say definitively that the quote "husbands want their wives to submit; wives want our husbands to dominate" is in no way indicative of a BDSM relationship or a desire for one. It is a gross generalization in the

Stop equating a "traditional" relationship with an abusive relationship, it shows a huge misunderstanding of a "traditional" relationship. In a good, happy, non-abusive, "traditional" relationship the parties have a mutual respect for one another. My sister, and several close friends, are in a very good marriage

We will have to agree to disagree here. Especially if you can't admit something as obvious about human nature as the fact that marrying someone might give a person more reason to stick it out than just dating.

I'm sorry, but that is so clearly not the case here. Nowhere is this presented in the context of mutual power play. It is not a book about an alternative lifestyle, it is a book telling women what to do to keep a man. Initially I thought maybe you were into BDSM yourself, and it just touched a nerve for you

In all seriousness, there's no such thing as BDsM done without consent. It's a specific lifestyle choice and there are acknowledged structures to it for a reason.

It's good to be tolerant of others' choices when they don't involve severe emotional manipulation and suffering.

It is bad to be tolerant of others' choices when they are predicated on those things.

I have two kids and sometimes my wife says no to sex, which bums me out. My question for you is do I need to have a third child with her in order for it to be ok for me to rape her or is the "implied consent" based more off of years of marriage?
