I get what Chris Rock is saying, but Kerry Washington or Gabrielle Union don’t need a man to speak for them.

Because most women don’t have to pay for male company.

I apologized to my rapist after he raped me. It makes me sick to think about now, but that’s how it happened. As someone else said, trying to normalize the assault in your own mind to make yourself an active participant (or even the guilty party) instead of a victim is very common.

I think the whole point is that it’s not. We have a narrow and false view of how “real” victims are supposed to act, and we question their victimhood when they defy that rather than noticing that some “weird” behaviors of victims are actually common, and that there really isn’t a “typical” response to being assaulted.

Not really. Many victims try to normalize the experience in order to redefine it. A “fake it til you make it” post assault consent. I know others who have done it and I regretably have done this myself. Also, it never works.

“incapacitated due to alcohol and therefore could not consent,”

It sounds fair to me. They need to take care of their rape problem first though.

Being a sore loser and not conceding when he loses, shit talking the organizations when he doesn’t get their endorsements, stealing campaign data, whining about the establishment when he almost exclusively gets positive press and now constantly changing the conditions after agreeing to them - it’s Bernie’s world…

I’m #TeamHillary here. You said you wanted more debates, everyone agreed to add more debates, and now you want to change the deal? Tough cookies. You should’ve spoken up before.

As a woman who didn’t speak of being raped to my friends let alone the police prior to the Cosby publicity, I can attest that the public spotlight on the issue made it much easier to broach the subject with friends. In turn this resulted in me finding out that more than one of my friends had experienced similar…

Every time people go on about Avery being innocent because he never hurt a fly I can’t get over the fact that he doused a live cat in fuel and tossed it towards a fire and laughed as it burned to death... and admitted it.

Wait, is she alleging that Twitter is somehow involved in a conspiracy against Stephen Avery? Because, ummmm. No.

Your mom, in whose basement you live, is probably your intellectual superior.

Yes. You have.

I’ve never met a women who is my intellectual superior.

Yes; this is very true.

I’m not sure it’s true that women want someone who is ambitious and financially secure. In the past that may have been true when we had little means of becoming financially independent. But now, at least, most of my female friends and myself look for a man who will treat us as an equal and support us emotionally.…

I still don’t understand how guys walk around all day with stuff clanging around between their legs.

Here’s what I heard:
