Goddamnit, I read the book "Tampa" when it came out, and it was so disgusting I thought the author was purposely exaggerating a bit to get us to look at the "Female teacher male student not rape" topic, but it seems like every month another news story comes out to prove that book accurate.

Is there a fashion secret that I am unaware of for, shall we say, vagina goop?

The guilt is real! I have a friend who had killed someone (self-defense) and he had horrible PTSD and issues for a while. He says it definitely fucks you up and there's no romanticism or bravado about it.

Oh I've done this. Probably more than I should have.

Man, I've been there before too. Things that have helped me in the past:

I don't know if someone else had already addressed this, but!

That's a fantastic idea. Everyone just gets the same lid cups, men and women. The bar treats it like glassware and patrons have the option of taking it home at $5 for a souvenir, treasured hookup trinket, etc.

Ooohh, I see. My personal plan is to screenshot the ones I like, keep them all on a file on my laptop and then (whenever the time comes) go find a badass seamstress to make a version of the dress for me, and then it'll even be properly fitted already!

If your bf's sister is really interested:

If bringing a reusable mug is something you want to do and works for you, great. However, my point is, even if there is use in it being reusable, selling a $5 "anti-rape cup" is, to put it lightly, not the most altruistic or helpful motion.

Your being a badass is great and all, but being good at martial arts does not immunize you to being hurt, assaulted, raped, etc. "Badass chick/dude fends off attackers" is a great news story (there's one circulating around on my FB feed right now!) but it's not always true, not even a majority of the time. There ARE…

It's resourceful, but at FIVE DOLLARS for a cup + your drink, I doubt this resourcefulness is "for the safety as women" as much as "a way to make extra money on the fears of women."

Jenny packham and Claire Pettibone. I'm convinced those are the only two brands I need to look at for a beautiful wedding dress

In high school, one of my friends wanted to do my hair for some event. She said she saw a photo of a girl with some curls but also some straight pieces, and insisted (when I was like wtf why are you curling and straight-ironing my hair, what is this) that in the photo, it was very stylish and cool-looking.

Are you...serious...

Passively-aggressively (well, honestly aggressively-aggressively) punishing and getting back at your parents because YES I HAD SEX BEFORE MARRIAGE OH IS THAT LITERALLY WHAT MARRIAGE IS ABOUT? SEXUAL PURITY? WELL WHY DON'T I JUST SEW A VAGINA ON MY DRESS IF THAT'S WHAT IT IS

What is this ridiculous new style of leg-drawing pose where it looks broken? Especially on Mars - her knee, calf, and foot are all pointing 3 different directions. That's terrible technique.

Where in the story was anyone raped?

I think "optional and anonymous" is the key here. I have no problems with couples that let you donate to a house down payment, honeymoon, etc. The place it becomes horrible is when it's not anonymous and they'll know exactly how much who donated, and someone will complain about it being anonymous because people want…

the world of Texas, where the men that taught me how to shoot and use a gun (safely) are now "stand your ground my house is my castle" proponents that open their doors by pointing an assualt rife with a light and scope at whoever DARED to knock and find themselves at the wrong house (they share a duplex) by accident. …
