I mean, they're just trying to get rid of a woman, right? She is indeed very pretty, but I feel like they seized on that to get rid of her.

They might be able to as soon as the fitness test standards are lowered to a shamefully low level as they have been for women in every other branch of the armed forces in every country where they are allowed to serve. Just speaking the truth. Nobody get mad.

I'm not trying to exclude anyone or make anyone feel uncomfortable, but facts are facts.

you'd separate your daughter from her friend? seems to me the best thing you can do for the boy is make sure your daughter stayed his friend.

WTF is wrong with people??? I mean seriously? Who thinks like that in this day and age??? Are they trolling? Is it some kind of performance art? I literally cannot understand how sane people who are raising a tiny human IN THE 21ST CENTURY could come to the conclusion that this was even a marginally OK idea. I…

Nope. Just to get everyone on the same page.

So... You went straight for ad-hominem, then categorically dismissed every post you disagree with?

Not that I'm arguing with you, but it's not illegal to drink at home with your own parents in most states (http://drinkingage.procon.org/view.resource.…).

You don't see what relationships are like in the same way when you're living in the same household.

Jesus, how judgmental are you?

It doesn't necessarily mean her relationships are fucked up, maybe she just doesn't want to let random boyfriends into her kids lives until she's in a serious relationship. Not that I'm saying (at all) that as a divorced mom you should stay single - just that maybe the fact that her kids haven't seen many adult…

Oh, you want co-ed sleepovers?

True story and it's rough. As someone who identifies as trans, but having not gone through any transitional stages and living with the physical sex I was born with it sucks, my damn chest inhibits me from passing. I use the single person men's restrooms in public, it's just a bathroom forreal.

I think it's time to acknowledge that the heterosexual lifestyle choice is simply incompatible with a committed, loving relationship.

I hate how shows like this show straight people denigrating the sanctity of gay marriage.

Sorry, scientists. You created something with wide-open possibilities. Unfortunately, some assholes in the comments section of Gawker think it's kind of dumb or weird, so you'll have to pack it up and try something else. Obviously, all innovations must have an immediate market to count as anything, and you failed.

Short & sweet. If said dude making the advance wont take a simple NO. You have every right to twist the knife.

Sure, call the police. And they'll tell you that it is for Campus Cops to deal with and won't bother helping you at all. Where the fuck do you get off?

I guess you missed the bit where the article identified that it was talking about people against whom Yale had found "sufficient evidence... of nonconsensual sex".

Ok, I read through the whole article. A lot of it is quotes from interviews with people who live in Steubenville, so I don't completely know where the author stands, but I didn't really like the overall picture presented in the article. It suggests that the trial would have gone smoothly & fairly if only this blogger…
