Nobody makes a man rape another human being.

Gee, and here I thought we women were supposed to support other women. You know, by respecting their mature and thought-out opinions enough to not talk trash or behave as though said other women owe us anything.

Something else that's sick: all the commenters here who have zero concern or compassion for the boy who came home from school to find his dead mother. I do realize the fact that he's male renders him both meaningless and automatically a misogynist in waiting, but come ON people!!!

I have to question the inclusion of 'Gravity', considering the charges of plagiarism. Just seems to be in rather poor taste.

So your reaction would be the same if this were James Franco talking about having 'his experience' with his younger brother or sister? Well, actually, who are we kidding; you wouldn't give two shits if it were abuse directed at his brother, but his sister? Oh the outrage would be of epic proportions.

I loved Down a Dark Hall

Oh good gods, yes. THIS just made my 16 year old daughter sit up, LOOK at me, and ask with awe "WHO is that?" Time to try her on BSG again...

That scene horrified me, made me ill. Which was the whole point; I'm glad it sickened you, it was supposed to sicken you. Grisham wanted his readers to be appalled and horrified by what those rednecks did to that little girl. He wanted us to fully grasp the reasoning behind the vigilantism that followed. What I don't…

Everything is white privilege. And misogyny.

Yes, my older daughter does know feminists. She also knows humanists, and misogynists. She was also present when I made the decision to leave the man who thought beating and raping me was a good way to 'discipline' me and 'cure' me of my 'attitude'; I bring this up because my daughter knows what a strong woman is. Her…

Haha, I think any establishment that can afford to have that on the menu can afford to swallow some food waste costs. It's part of running a restaurant. Some people don't understand that though...

If you get a bad haircut in North America, you're encouraged to NOT pay for it and request it be fixed. Now, is the hairdresser's time and money (because yes, she pays for the chair in the salon and her supplies) somehow less valuable than the time and money spent on the production of a meal? If you are paying to eat…

Wow.

That's not at all what she said, which you know perfectly well. Skewing someone else's statements in order to give your opinion relevance is indicative of a stance without merit.

Who are you calling an asshole, asshole? Or do you prefer the term slag?

In Canada, if you're asked for ID, you give it. Failure to do so gets you cuffed, regardless of colour, gender, etc. I'm assuming that the samenis true in the US.

Perhaps it has something to do with the way she has minimalized and downplayed the incident. Perhaps it has something to do with her going back to Brown in a very public manner. When you look at the current uproar over Rice's victim defending him, I don't think it's a terrible thing to avoid glorifying this sort of…

That's assuming any Palestinians are left after Israel finishes its blatantly obvious transformation into Nazi Germany. Yep, I said it. I would not be at all surprised to discover that Israel wants to ship Paletinians off to nice little camps, with big ol' ovens.

They're cowards, no doubt about it.

Hey, I'm a Jewish anti-Semite, pro-Hamas bitch because I *gasp* oppose genocide.
