the women who thought her bodily autonomy should be more important than that is a stupid bitch, not a victim.

It’s hard to get the legal system to treat rape like rape when the victim willingly went on a date or even just went to the same party as her rapist. When it comes to withdrawing consent after initially giving it, police officers (and prosecutors, and judges and juries, though the chances of such a case getting far…

Condo boards and parent-teacher associations are where NIMBY helicopter parents and other sanctimonious meddlers go to indulge their autocratic fantasies.

I actually sort of appreciate the evangelical support for Trump. They might as well just come out and say, “Hey, America! We hate brown people and women more than we love Jesus!”

This is your obligatory reminder that whatever you think of American prudery when it comes to the sex lives of politicians, Anthony Weiner didn’t go down for a little harmless consensual sexting. The “accidental” tweet that broke the story was an unsolicited dick pic sent to a college student who had tweeted him about…

“The pay gap is a lie,” they added as they readjusted their fedora, muttering something about “objective facts.”

100% of those surveyed who believe sexism is no longer a problem followed their answer, unprompted, with: “do you even know what it’s like in Saudi?” Then they shared a meme about how nice guys never get the girl.

Then you may want to research the history of the term “Uncle Tom”.

Uh, I’m pretty sure the reason is because Hillary is a woman, and so the assumption is that if we’re expected to vote for her, we have to like her. Nobody is asking if Donald Trump is likable. Nobody asked that question at all in the previous elections, except in roundabout ways like how they'd want to have a beer…

I need to form a support group for people who have always liked and related to Hillary, and therefore in this election feel like outcasts.

One of the realest things (recently) written. Same reason we have women’s only fitness clubs - so we don’t have to be oggled and hit on everytime we do a squat or stretch. And God forbid you reject any of their advances. You could end up dead in a ditch for bruising some dude’s ego.

Any man who would oppose safe spaces for women probably has a lot to hide. Sure technically these spaces may be illegal but any decent man would understand why they need to exist and wouldn’t be against them. This isn’t about equality. It’s about safety. Women need to be protected from men. As long as men continue to…

He is *not* an anti-abortion candidate. He may be personally pro-life but he stands for choice in office. 100% rating from Planned Parenthood, 100% from NARAL.

Just a reminder that back in ‘08, when Obama picked Biden, everyone was like “That boring old white dude?” And now we’re all like UNCLE JOE PLEASE DON’T LEAVE US.

I always reassure myself by thinking “No one is even paying attention to you. No one cares what you look like.” Then I see something like this.

So, I have a real problem with this line of argument, in large part because no one has yet managed to explain to me why it isn’t just as applicable, if not more applicable, to disabled 20- or 30-somethings having kids. And when one starts advocating that people with disabilities shouldn’t be allowed to breed, there is…

I took a class called Assisted Reproductive Technologies and the Law and my mom got phone calls or text messages like that every Tuesday after class. Just, “Hey, in case anyone ever needs evidence of my intentions, you are not allowed to harvest my eggs from my dead body and then use them to have a grandchild. If you…

For me, it’s more that it’s without clear consent from the daughter. Yes, I would think it was slightly weird for a daughter to ask a mom to be a surrogate simply because of the age issue, but this woman is dead and there’s no explicit proof that this is what she wanted. It feels more like the mom wanting a grandchild…

Brothers and sisters I have naught (er) but this woman’s mother is my mother’s daughter.
