I think it's mostly that she had no idea that consensual fantasies like that exist, or, if she does, she doesn't understand that not everyone will enjoy what she likes.

So if a Jezebel writer writes something, I must automatically agree with it, right? I couldn't possibly possess the critical thinking skills to disagree, right?
I honestly didn't get worked up about it until she tried to defend her statement. It's just silly, I think we can agree on that.
It's still a generalization. If she meant some, she should have said some. Why is it so much harder to be clear about what you mean to say than to have a huge debate about it? Unfortunately, the rules of our language mean that if you don't add the word "some" to that statement, it's a generalization. I don't make up…
I already responded elsewhere with this, but I'll just repeat it.
So if I say, "white people are stupid," it's not a generalization of all white people? We're getting down to syntax here, and that's no way to debate.
Why just mention women, then, if you're not generalizing?
No one here is saying that all men do anything, though. We're saying people who try to train their significant others are gross and creepy. The question you decided to answer with a backhanded generalization was obviously a rhetorical one. At this point, just say, "Hey, I fucked up. I made a huge generalization and it…
Ugh. Gross. There's seriously nothing that makes me want to tear my hair out more than bad ideas expressed badly. Good lord, who edited this shit? "Say what you want, but it's the truth." What does that even MEAN?!
Any college Jezzies play HvZ? My school has a game starting on Monday and I got selected to be an OZ (original zombie)! I was hoping and hoping that I'd get to be one because I got turned the last time I played and it was way more fun to be a zombie. Anyway! I had to tell somebody, but my best guy friend is over and…
My sister and her friends use it to send each other pictures of funny faces, reactions to TV episodes, and to show off makeup techniques. My sister's 12, though, so she probably hasn't thought to use it any other way.
I'm sure. I was just thinking that the statistics for here can't be that different.
Jesus, that's terrifying. I feel like I need another shower after reading that...
I have a sneaking feeling he may not survive his sentence. In American jails, sex offenders get the worst treatment. I can't imagine it's any different in India.
Made my night. This is awesome. Every time I see a guy in gym shorts, I'm going to picture him wearing it as a sexy little dress.
My last relationship ran so smoothly with this kind of thing that I almost forgot how annoying living with people can be.
Removed because I replied to the wrong post. Damn you Kinjaaa!
Thanks a lot. ^^ I didn't mean for it to get depressing. I truly do love Halloween.
I loooove Halloween. It's gonna be difficult this year for me...my boyfriend passed in March and it was our favorite holiday. Last year, we went as Jack and Sally from The Nightmare Before Christmas. This year, we'd already planned to be a lion tamer (me) and a lion (him). I'm still gonna dress up, 'cause I know he'd…
So you buy that he just, whoops, forgot that he was part of a culture that has problems with misogyny? That's just ridiculous.
