Because some people are confused. if you are uncertain if your partner’s actions are romantic or abusive just remember romantic is something that is done FOR you and not TO you.

This is the kind of wackadoo who would anonymously leave a message for your boss saying you’ve been stealing from a company to get you fired, because he thought you had a crush on a coworker. This kind of jealousy is stalker-level crazy.
To everyone saying things like “they belong together” and otherwise criticizing the unnamed woman for getting back with him:
I don’t even get why people think jealously is sweet and/or romantic.
The “it’s just jealousy” part irks me.

This is a perfect example of the damage of the ‘gosh can’t you take a joke’ bullshit. This isn’t a joke, it’s not funny, but Trump will use that line to shirk all responsibility of inciting violence and being a crazy asshole.
I’ve always thought that viewpoint was odd. Abortion is murder!...except when if the woman was raped, in which case it suddenly isn’t. But then I’ve seen pro-choice people who think abortion should be legal, but also judge a woman’s reasons for the choice. If abortion is just the removal of cells, then the choice is…
The problem is, he doesn’t say he’s anti-abortion, he says he’s pro-life. But then he’s in support of the death penalty. So he clearly does not stick to his convictions and is inconsistent on the matter of whether “life” is to be protected at all costs.
My 11-year-old boy was apoplectic about having his (two) moms sign his permission slip to learn about S-E-X in health class, because he and his friends were absolutely certain they would burst into flames if they had to listen to their “weird” teacher explain fallopian tubes. My wife and I called his bluff by telling…
Don't you hate when people go around saying "whom" and forcing you to have that conversation with your kids? Can't we just pretend it doesn't exist?
Yeah, most people who say it’s difficult to explain seem to mean “It’s difficult to explain while also making it clear to my kids that it’s not something THEY, my precious and definitely straight children, are allowed to feel.” If that’s not in play, it’s pretty darn easy to explain.
I have no sympathy for this sort of thing.
Ok, but then how do I explain when to use “whom” to my kids?
What is wrong with, “Sometimes men love men, and sometimes women love women. And there’s nothing wrong with that.”
“Now, somebody who a lot of people don’t give credit to but is in actuality very beautiful is Paris Hilton,” Trump told Stern. “I’ve known Paris Hilton from the time she’s 12, her parents are friends of mine, and the first time I saw her she walked into the room and I said, ‘Who the hell is that?’ At 12, I wasn’t…
LOL, yes, having a drink at a college party is absolutely “binge drinking”. Also, “every time”? She was seen drinking on one occasion, and that was not at Lollapalooza. She was just dancing, get over yourself grandma.
Reeeeaaaallllllyyyy????? She’s CLEARLY drunk? As someone who goes to Lolla every year, I have any number of photos where I look totally wasted but haven’t had a drop of anything alcoholic. You’re having fun, you’re hot as hell, and if you are drunk you are probably not dancing and goofing because you’re trying not to…
And even if she is... so what? Alcohol was legal at 18 when I was her age, and she’s not driving or harming anyone in any way. She’s just dancing at a concert. So what, big deal, who cares.
What a coincidence! It just so happens that there’s virtually always something objectionable about the voices of women who speak up in public. I’m sure it has nothing to do with internalized sexism. Just like how women are criticized for every vocal trait imaginable—saying “like” too much, upspeak, vocal fry—while men…
