Every younger woman in a leadership position has experienced this. The combination of sexualizing you while belittling your intelligence is a two-pronged strategy men use to demean you when they feel threatened by your power. My solution is to just femme it up even more while continuing to run shit the way I please.…

I can understand being fatigued by all the attention she’s getting, but it’s not like she’s actively seeking it out. The attention comes from her genuinely wanting to get something positive done — as opposed to the business as usual bullshit from Pelosi (though her take-no-shit approach with Donald is fantastic) — and…

Confession time. I’m a Washington Post and Slate troll, but not that kind. I look at it like this: these guys don’t care and/or don’t want to hear facts, figures, arguments, etc. There’s no mind changing. So I have a little fun instead.

“He was wearing a MAGA hat, which is shorthand for ‘I Hate Brown People’ or ‘White Male Power...’”

Yes, the media and pretty much everyone else jumped on this story too soon before they knew all of the facts.

I have never wished death on so many people as I have in these last two years.

So can the Parkland kids sue Fox news for the same thing? 

I wouldn't just lower the minimum voting age; I'd set a MAXIMUM age of 55. 

I’m just too exhausted to deal with this shit any more.

Perfect header photo is perfect. Any middle aged dude looking like that should proceed directly to jail, do not pass go, do not collect 200$.

Exactly. If you’re the older dude in that situation and you need to ask, that IS your answer. Just don’t. It’s not that hard to not be a total creep. 

To the folks who are trying to “not all men” me in the grays:

You know what? If you’re over 25 and you don’t know if she’s legal without seeing her ID, maybe just don’t.

Men are really not sending us their best people. 

If the universal age of consent in the US were lowered to 15, men would truly be out there trying to get with high-school freshmen and see nothing wrong with it. 

Oh yeah, gotta love that catch-all phony apology.

It isn’t that someone should be silenced. It’s that someone should stay silent and listen when their experience and knowledge is less than sufficient to form a well-founded opinion.

these fucking MAGA hats are going to become the 21st century equivalent of the swastika armband or klan pointy white hood.

“Middle-to-upper class teenage boys who traveled to DC for the express purpose of protesting against low-income women and girls having access to adequate medical care found to have not said racist things.”

They were wearing MAGA hats. That’s like saying, “Yeah, that guy with the swastika didn’t say much. He just raised his arm in a Roman Imperial Salute.” Nothing offensive there.
