There would also be far, far less black and poor people in college. Try to think outside of your myopic (and obviously white) bubble. Right, because only people who play sports are rapists. Nothing to do with culture, just sport. Are you paid to be dumb on the internet?

They haven’t been told why their teammate has been kicked off the squad

Best title reappropriation EVER. All the fist bumps.

That really depends on the State. In Louisiana where an active “no” is required, it wouldn’t be. In a lot of states, it would.

She says she didn’t give verbal non-consent, there at that moment. What about the entire evenings worth of ‘No, I don’t want to have sex with you’ that preceded that moment? Surely a few hours worth of ‘No, I’m not attracted to you’ counts? But I’m also aware that we live in a society where wearing a woman down until

On one hand, an absence of consent is not consent. So, yes, technically, that would be rape.

This is why people (rightly) promote the “enthusiastic consent” standard!

I am confused. What is an “unfertilized embryo,” exactly? Because it sounds like an egg. Once it’s fertilized, then it seems like it would be an embryo. An embryo is a fetus. It’s a fertilized egg in the process of developing.

No such thing as unfertilized embryos. Basic biology

In order for them to be human embryos they must be fertilized, otherwise they would just be frozen eggs and there wouldn't be a suit or a story

They’re designed to protect them against the temptation of adultery.

A few months ago, there was a really strong and strange (to me) critique of the movie Hot Girls Wanted for shining a light on an aspect of the porn industry that is very woman un-friendly. The article read to me like it was accusing the documentary producers of taking a hardline, anti-porn stand, which I don’t think

I feel that this monologue by Cruz (monologuing is surely a sign Cruz is bent on world destruction) also kind of stays in line with the over-arching opinion in the Republican Party that rape is a thing that never happens. If I were a woman, I would like to take every precaution available to me to ensure that there was

How do they not understand the manifold reasons women take birth control above and beyond avoiding pregnancy? (WHICH IS ALSO TOTALLY REASONABLE?!?) I realized the other day how many reasons there are to need hormonal birth control when I longed to be on Implanon again because it made my periods regular. I got off of

We call it a War on Women precisely because assholes like you think forcing a woman to make a man wear birth control is preferable to giving her control over her own body after private consultation with her doctor.

Of course, he’s a guy who thinks we should protect our country by forcing other countries to wear our

Of interest: The porn industry is quicker to drop someone over allegations of rape than the NFL or NCAA.

Oh good. A whorephobic rape joke. Never heard that one. Good stuff.

Lots of women have rape fantasies. Please remember that kink shaming is not okay, and neither acting in nor viewing videos simulating rape is an endorsement of actual rape.
