Dudebro, we change attitudes by educating everyone what objectification/sexism is and why it's harmful. We change attitudes and actions by changing how we speak about issues like sexual violence. We change how people think by showing them how much sexism is a part of our history. We don't change shitty situations by…
Ok, you just need to stop. The problem with your "solution" is that it ignores the history of sexual abuse towards women and how systemic it is. Boundaries don't mean anything to people who think they're entitled to another person's body. That's what the issue is. Not deciding when it's "ok" to objectify other people…

He states plainly he wanted to fuck other, "hotter" girls, but also keep his girlfriend because…
I'm on her FetLife profile now while writing this and I have to look at this shit every day, and her relishing in it without ANY thought to my lack of dates
Here's my two cents :
I have to say I love all of these "BUT WHAT IF SOMEONE GETS FALSELY ACCUSED? WHAT ABOUT THE MEN? NAMALT!!!!!!!!!"
Brah, what utopia do you live in where cops, as a rule, give a shit about rape survivors? Where do you live that rape kits are given priority? Take a look at any other piece on rape on campus, of minors, committed by famous people, and you will find the people that DO care are few and far between, and not in a…
