So, basically Quiverfull with more elaborate hats?

For a minute there, I thought I was reading another thread about the Duggars. Are all religious extremists the same?

Normal leg-wear (ie, jeans, sweatpants, yoga pants, whatever) is pants. Fancy leg-wear (what you wear on your lower bits when you’re dressed up nice) is slacks. Either can be referred to as ‘trousers’, but only if you’re an asshole.

Can a Torontonian with some time and knowledge fill in a few readers on why this is especially heinous, now and in this city, in terms of rape culture? The ongoing trial of Jian Ghomeshi for assaulting women across Toronto? Maybe a list of missing and murdered aboriginal women that’s being ignored by the government?…
