Perfect!

One thing that gets on my nerves is women who won't let other women eat in peace. The ones that look at your plate always and watch everyone eat. If you have a salad, they shit on you for eating just a salad. If you eat pizza, they give you shit for eating pizza. "Are you really going to eat that greasy thing? Really,…

Yes. All of this. I can't stand the people who try to say that it's our right so "we can rise up against the federal government blah blah blah fart noise". OK genius, I would love to see a you and bunch of unorganized gun nuts try to take the largest and well equipped military the world has ever seen. Yeah, that…

What I cannot understand is why this country restricts access to Pseudoephedrine more closely than access to guns, or for the sake of this analogy, ammunition.

It should be at least as hard to get a gun as it is to get a driver's license, is all I'm saying. There should be a training period, insurance requirements, a waiting period, safety testing, and possibly some one-on-one assessments of mental competence. It should also be easier to say, "you didn't use this right…

Is that Pixar Cher?

The thing about this type of response is that it really doesn't address the reality of rape and sexual assault for most women.

Well this thread went crazy fast... Anyway, I think you're point lacks the greater context of women and predation. A lot of people see the current trend towards discouraging and inhibiting predation on a cultural level instead of encouraging individual self-defense as a sort of over-correction; the "self-defense"…

It is smart to educate women on dangers, but as soon as we start giving them "tips" or "guidelines" ... well, now women have "guidelines" that they can ignore - if they do ignore them and wind up a victim, we'll point to these "guidelines" accusingly. Should have listened, we'll say! And now we're blaming them for…

Oh, I agree! Nor would I suggest it's laziness to call him a misogynist. He obviously was one. But there are a lot of misogynists out there who are just being assholes, and then there's these people who clearly have something else fundamentally going on wrong with them.

Man here. All I have to say is, this story made me feel physically ill as well. Like I really feel like I'm about to hurl after reading this shit.

Have your BF read the last few pages of his manifesto and try to make that statement.

Yaaaaaas! Perfect man in the perfect tee!

That faux empathy passive aggressive they honestly think we can't see through it BULLSHIT IS THE WORST.

They wouldn't feel better. If God handed them Kate Upton in a string bikini on a silver platter, they'd instantly start freaking out about her cheating on them, how they couldn't trust her, all women be gold digging bitch whores, etc.

Erin hasn't gotten as far in her life as she has without rejection, trust me. When you actually try to accomplish things, real things (like being a writer) you go through many stages of rejection first. So I'm sure she knows that it's like.

Only women were divorced, eh?

My emotions towards all of this have gone from HULK FURY, to extreme sadness, to complete mental/emotional breakdown. The fact that women are so dehumanized, objectified, and degraded on this planet makes me borderline suicidal. What the fuck are we supposed to do?

Over and over again, I've seen commenters, bloggers and even a few media types make comments about how much 'better' it would have been if Rodgers had just 'had sex with hookers'. As a sex worker, I can't tell you how appalled this makes me. Please, stop wishing more of these monsters on us. We already deal with (and…

"feeling like no one attracted to you and people think you're a creep sucks."
