I just tried it a moment ago over email. I’ve been assuming that it would go badly so I sort of stopped even considering doing so. I’m glad you brought up the possibility because I am tired of the negative feeling I’m harboring towards him, and it does seem like something I should at least give a chance. (Not that I’m…

Are there family members that actually respond to ‘mind your own business’? Must be nice. Thank you, though. That’s sensible; I really should give that a try. I’m not sure that I have.
Not worried about skin cancer—just decided that he doesn’t like how I look, apparently.

Yeah-huh you can flaunt someone else.

Exhibit A: This video

@random, would like an opinion. a family member who’d had a mole removed came to me and pushed me to get mine removed. twice, though i was obviously not interested the first time he brought it up. is it ok to tell people who give unsolicited advice to go fuck themselves? since then he’s done other things along those…

So, this is basically an update of Leisure Suit Larry?

Disagree. “Felt like a slave”=treated with the utmost disrespect, as a non-person, something other than a fellow human being.

seriously. ::wolf whistles::
didn’t know before know that i have a thing for popeye. and the rock.

Yes, agreed. She’s, what? On a bus, yelling to some guy on another bus. I think they’re both laughing, maybe? Oh, and she’s blonde. That is literally all I got from the commercial. Sandra Bullock costarring with buses.

I rest my case.

Carson Daly as anyone other than Carson Daly is kind of hot.

It seems that some guys would freak out at attention from another man, no? Whether from homophobia or from the societal expectation that a man violating another man’s space is behaving aggressively and should be dealt with as such. Or that men ‘have tempers’ and naturally ‘defend their territory’ so, etc. etc. Again,…

I guess they don’t have a weather ‘copter? It’d be excellent if the anchors had come for him with rope ladder and whirlybird.

You are very much missing the point. I wish you luck with that.

If a man was creepshotting another man on the street, and his victim shouted at him, people would say he was lucky that’s all that happened. If he got punched, some would approve, or take it as a matter of course. They wouldn’t focus so much on the appropriateness of the victim’s actions.

That’s horrible and perfect.

Of course, a gun. Your average man can’t defeat an eight armed creature in hand-to-hand combat.

That’s the closest as we’re going to come to having Pride in the royal family.

Maybe I’m wrong, but I’m guessing you’re not from a large urban area. The cops in most cities are so outnumbered, it’s not even funny. So many crimes are never even investigated. They certainly aren’t hanging out in plainclothes on every corner.

As for someone getting shot. Research shows that in most cases of…

I’m wondering—if a man was filming another man in a sexualizing way, and the man being filmed punched the cameraman...would the discussion here go any differently?

That’s the point, though, isn’t it. These creeps feel a little too safe doing what they’re doing. What she described in her comment is the consequence. Maybe this is not a safe way to address the problem, but it’s commendable.
