Sharon Needles shared this on Facebook this morning. I was incredibly confused.

Yeah, that certainly does seem to be the case, especially with certain types of heteronormative storylines. We're only ever allowed to see a Dom and his female sub. Stories about Dommes and male subs are really rare, except for the "pro-Domme and graying old male sub" archetype. And those are really only there to make…

Thank you! I hate this being portrayed as BDSM. It's so obviously not. It gives a whole lot of people the wrong idea...

Great. One step closer to yet another platform where kink can be completely misunderstood by the mainstream public. I'm so exited.

Great for her! I hope I'm still that active when I get older. She's an inspiration.

Ah! Thanks for clearing that up...I couldn't follow it to save my life. I just like the song.

Yeah. I guess it just seemed odd because "featuring" usually means the featured person only had a small role. It's nitpicky, but it just seemed weird to me xD

So this has quickly become my jam. A few things are confusing to me about the video, which seems to depict a man (Calvin Harris) being beaten up by some guys after they hear that he's been abusing a woman (Florence Welch). Also, I don't know why the song says it's by Calvin Harris and featuring Florence Welch when Flo…

And to people who struggle with heart disease.

This ad is horrible, but where would a lady find a nice porcelain heart like that one? I love stuff like that and it'd go beautifully in my room...

Definitely. I just moved to a new college where I know no one and my Labor Day weekend is looking pretty bleak.

I'm pretty sure *he's* the one with the problem here. Women have been taught from birth to go along to get along, which means accepting all kinds of weird-ass behavior.

Obviously it's more complicated than that, but again, you're clearly not open to new information, so I'm not going to try.

Aw, see, that's my mistake. I fed the troll.

If a woman was following a man around, harassing him, physically intimidating him, trying to force herself on him, I'd be fine with him standing up for himself. Women can be perpetrators of sexual violence, too. Don't jump to conclusions, little troll.

If some crazy woman was following you around, and had been for days, trying to force you to have sex with her, go the fuck ahead. Women can be perpetrators of sexual violence, too. Don't jump to conclusions.

I love that approach. I do a similar thing.

Of course it's not violent, but women are trained from birth to be wary of strange men. This is the advice I give guys who see someone they're interested in on the street: Strike up a friendly conversation if she's cool with it. Don't make a pass. Don't try to get her number. Do try to get to know her, or maybe begin…

not a coincidence in my view

Was he armed? I don't remember them being armed. He would have tried to come after her, sure, but he wouldn't have been able to catch her being that injured, whether the program told him to or not.
