Your assertion that sex work is about degradation is dismissing a whole host of sex workers who have said otherwise. If your experience differs from theirs, I'm sorry. I acknowledge that it can be abusive and degrading. But to state that it IS, it just is, isn't true, and feels like being shushed to those of us who

Your experience is anecdotal. And also not unique to sex workers - tell me what service job DOES get to choose their clients and doesn't experience abusive behavior? I personally know more than 30 sex workers. I trust them when they say they are choosing this work over other low-paying work that THEY find degrading.

Have you ever paid for or performed sex work? Perhaps what is degrading is grown women stating their experiences and being shamed, dismissed, and silenced by people who have no idea what they're talking about.

Yeah, and 50 percent of the world is female. But we don't make up 50% of entertainment leads, do we?

ABSOLUTELY. She only blew me, man, ok? I didn't put the p in the v! Which makes him sound like an immature douchenozzle anyway. What, your buddies are making fun of you for screwing the sad crazy girl and you double down by admitting to only deigning to "let" her blow you because your precious dick is too good for her

Your experience is that most people who discuss suicide are doing it for attention? Or did I read that wrong?

This is even scarier. As a nurse, you know that you don't get to keep track of your patients forever. You have absolutely no way of knowing what happened to them after they left that place.

That's not actually true, and a dangerous thing to say. Please don't ever say that again.

You do what you can do. You're a person with a capacity to impact the world, and if you choose you can do something interesting or funny or sweet or strong with that capacity. You can contribute that thing that makes a difference to someone else.

There is supposedly animal control, but I've never seen them. And Oakland has packs of feral dogs roaming. There are so many barking dogs within my hearing at this very moment - like 6 houses of crazy in the immediate vicinity.

HAHAHAHA! Governing body? Have you been to Oakland? The cops don't come out for dogs barking. They barely even show up to a stabbing. Are you actively bleeding right now? Ooooookay, I guess we'll send someone.

She shouldn't get any different treatment, ALL women should get different treatment. Wind blows. Clothes slip. People fall. I'm conscious every day that I get into my SUV in work appropriate knee length skirts and if someone was there waiting, they'd eventually get the right angle to get a crotch shot. Just because

Well that didn't take very long.

Well that's not cool. The covering up and minimizing angle is absolutely messed up, and I think the avalanche of publicity this has received lately will make a difference.

Working? If it were me, I'd rather have my rapist off campus for a year than not at all. Is it enough? Certainly not. My point is solely that were it not for these campus processes, in all likelihood NOTHING would be done. I get that it's a cold comfort, but I know that most rape victims will not get a day in court,

Given how few rape allegations lead to trial, and how few trials actually lead to convictions, I think this system is absolutely necessary. The burden of proof is lower in these school hearings and at least they can get the asshole off of campus, if only temporarily. Legal system broken, work-around positive.

Looking forward to the day that this will just say "Mark & Ethan, a couple with a popular..." instead of "openly gay". Imagine if everyone's orientation was remarkable. "Christina and Colin, an openly straight couple, invited us to the movies." "Alice and Tom, a straight couple with bi leanings, hosted a

"Of course they are!" *snort* Literally, laughing so hard I snorted.

I'm pretty sure my vag would be rather upset about a lightbulb or a Buzz Lightyear toy, but it LOVES dicks so....

Stress is a stimuli, as is pain. In this case, the stress outweighs the pain, and the mouse is more aware of the anxiety and therefore less aware of the pain. Like, this thing might eat me, why worry about a stubbed toe when I might be about to die?
