I was thinking that same thing about Facebook in regards to when I was in school. I didn't do any drunken shenanigans in college. I did the reverse. I did all my delinquency and truancy and debauchery in junior high and high school and then once I got to college I became like a nerd lol. So I was just thinking how

thanks! at least someone does, lol.

I didn't comment on the website; I commented on the article. And I think it speaks volumes that you become such a raging bitch because I'm torn on an issue you disagree with. And I did read the article, in its entirety, and women aren't being shamed for wearing a tampon; they're being shamed because their tampon

And something I forgot to mention, this has nothing to do with rape. It shouldn't be listed on the side under "rape culture." No one's saying these women deserve to be raped; that's a pretty big cognitive leap there, IMHO. What a lot of the comments on that website are saying, is that if you go out dressed like a

Then I feel young because my first reaction to those photos was "heh, been there."

I haven't looked at the website so I can't comment on it specifically, but I am pretty torn on this issue. Half of me feels that in this day and age, with technology being what it is, you always have to kind of be of the understanding that if you're out somewhere in an embarrassing position, someone will see and snap

ha! good one. that hit me right where I live.

There's 2 different annoyances here. One, is that anytime anyone doesn't prostrate on behalf of all women, Jezebel commenters jump down their throat. I hate that. Two, yeah I guess a guy touching you where you don't want him to is obnoxious, but it's for like two seconds. And she never admits that if the guy's hot you

THANK YOU! Christ. And I'm not even saying she's wrong about the guys-manhandling-you-is-annoying thing. The part that pissed me off was when she got into the whole "stop touching me there because that's not gonna get you laid" angle. That just really irritated me because I bet you like most of the time these dudes

I am a woman. My name is Andrea, thus my Twitter handle AndreaRulez6. I don't know why people assume I'm a guy just because I'm not automatically siding with the female author of this article. I've been female my entire life. I'm 30. I have experienced firsthand when a guy does that sort of thing, shoulder or lower

Oh, Cheebs. I call bullshit on everything you say. Here's why. The author of this piece - who I'm sure is a lovely woman when she's not ranting bitchily online - is telling men everywhere, like stop manhandling me near my butt, even if you're just trying to navigate a crowded room, BECAUSE IT'S NOT GOING TO GET ME TO

Thank you.

oh no your insults have crippled me.

Okay but I'm not a guy.

yeah I was about to warn you that saying anything mildly dissenty on this article will get you railed by a bunch of chicks. And not in a good way. I totally get what you're saying and I agree. I was kind of saying the same thing just less polite. Like, that shit happens in a bar. Not everyone wants to bang you.

She's implying (and at some points, outright saying) that these guys are using the fact that they have to navigate a crowded room as an opportunity to touch a chick inappropriately because they're sort of coming onto her, but doing so in such a way that if she gets mad or something, he can then be like, "What, I'm

She's saying that guys touch her (and women in general) inappropriately when moving through a crowded venue and that they're doing it as some sort of come on. I'm just saying that that's a very full-of-yourself stance to take, no?

Exactly. I am a STAUNCH LGBT supporter. So I'm not being homophobic here. I'm just offering the alternative explanation that maybe the paper wasn't being homophobic either. Maybe they just thought that to print such a thing would be like condoning something that their state deems is illegal.

Yeah I was talking about perception, not reality. We see an Asian person and we think "Chinese" or MAYBE Japanese or Korean. It's a very quick snap-judgement. Very few people who see an obviously Asian person walking down the street would stop and think: I wonder which of the 55 ethnicities in Asia that guy is?

Thanks. I agree. My mother is obviously mentally unstable (to me anyway) and she refuses to acknowledge it or seek help because, as she puts it, she views sickness as weakness. It's so sad. And if a woman can be that way (with no fear of losing her "masculinity") imagine how men could be? It's really sad.
