AAAARRRRGH!

Dude, you're not listening. You're not being called Schroedinger's Rapist because you might rape her and you might not. It's because she cannot *know* that you won't, even though you know that you won't. That's the world she's living in. You started off ok, but you're increasingly arguing that you shouldn't have to be

No longer! It's been replaced for the last two seasons with Elmo the Musical, which is math-based and not nearly as targeted to young preschoolers.
Also, I thought Elmo's World was fine.

Well the idea that you don't pretend one person **has** to meet all your "emotional and sexual needs," and you don't pretend that you can meet all of theirs. You get and you gve what you can from one partner, and then you each get something else from someone else.

RIght, sure, but it's spoiling for a fight to see that in #yesallwomen, because the stories of #yaw are about how all women are victimized by somebody. Of couse, not everyone is as articulate as we might hope.

It's a joke — the guys from Dinosaur Comics and Wondermark keep making photoshops positing each other as the authors of the most obnoxious books possible.

How is it false?

Gosh, it's been a long time since I thought about it, but I had a very similar experience.

Engage, or don't. Setting yourself on a throne because you don't like the tone of someone who responded to something dumb you said because she said you were being dumb just makes you look like a defensive d-bag.
I'm really sorry that shitty stuff happened to you. It is not ok. But it's not really germane, is it? No

I think that's an accurate observation of how most dudes (incl. myself) tend to see it, but it's complete bullshit, right? Some dudes are plainly creeps, but if the only people who did creepy things were guys with creepy vibes, then no one would ever get raped. Clean-cut all-americans rape girls too. Much more often,

Yes, I think Dan has the timeline wrong.

I don't think that would be a mistake.

1) Because as Dan says, no shit. It's not newsworthy. #yesallwomen **is** newsworthy because it's not something that a lot of men are aware of, or not as viscerally as we should be.

I really am a 40 foot tall alien with the circuitry to destroy your tiny planet enscribed on my thumb, so good job there.

That's nice. I like that you put Junior on there, but washed out enough that you wouldn't really notice what it was if you weren't already familiar with the picture.

She totally got away with that one.

It's still a quotation.

Same here.
Well, not **all** the time.
