Hi all. I'm a feminist guy who's also here because of Simon Pegg. I followed and signal-boosted and fell in love with this project today and how important and necessary it is. I want no personal recognition, I just want to add my voice to those of us thanking Laura Bates, Callie Beusman and Simon Pegg for making the…

Why would this be any different than any other study or article ever posted online since Al Gore invented the internet...people are not really as evolved as some like to think...just better at hiding it in "real life" and using their "safe place" online to vent true feelings...

Ugh. Yes. Every fucking word. Yes. Without the spectators, it's an organized training run. The spectators are EVERYTHING. Your feet have been pummeled into planks of pain, your hips ache with every step, sweat is dripping into every open chafing wound but then some little kid sticks their hand out for a high five and…

On the lighter side this made me laugh:

These bills are one reason I'm so angry that Harry Reid wimped out on filibuster reform. Abortion rights groups are no doubt reluctant to force the issue in federal court right now, because if it comes to the Supreme Court, there's a significant risk that Roe will be reversed or significantly crippled. If any Supreme…

I think this is a step in the right direction. Good to see that Mississippi is upholding the law (although it still sucks that this is the ONLY abortion clinic in the whole state), hopefully other states will see it the same way and destroy these TRAP bills. Fingers crossed!

First the shootings and now this. Honestly, I don't think anyone would be surprised if the citizens of Newtown just walled themselves in and said, "The hell with the rest of the world." I just hope they (and Boston) finds some peace eventually.

Also on behalf of all of the people who died or never recovered from diseases that no one has to suffer from anymore. One of my friends was in the "yes, vaccines, but I guess it's not my business..." camp until he was working in a hospital and treated a patient who'd had polio as a child. He was aghast that anyone…

The tone is dismissive because you have to be a complete fucking idiot to think vaccinations are a bad thing for your kid. You have to ignore the millions of lives saved and the consensus positions of actual doctors and scientists who have dedicated their lives to studying this shit.

Just ... hahahaha

While this continues to be a tragedy and a trainwreck, the administration's response has long past stupid and illogical and is firmly into absurd.

"While false rape reports are a HUGE deal, and not something to be taken lightly..."

At this point in my life, this is my hot button issue. False rape discussion existing in the same space as real rape discussions (or often in place of it). Even if you take the lowest rape stats and the highest false rape stats, there is a HUGE difference between the instances of each. So much so, that to discuss them…

How does job security work in academia?

Does ANTM have any sort of "alumni" network that helps teach you girls about how to build your portfolio, learn about the business aspect of modeling, provide support for the struggles (ie. rejection) that come with modeling?

Yet another to be glad I don't want kids.

Fuck these evil men that want us to pay $15 a month for birth control pills.

Hey Whitney,

I don't understand how schools punish kids for things that happen outside of school. It was shitty for the boys to share it with their friends, but no one should be surprised. They fucking play lacrosse for Christ's sakes. I don't see how the school has the authority to punish the girl. I understand schools have…

Well if she wants revenge, I guess she could lobby to have them sued on the grounds of transmitting child pornography.
