As someone with a graduate degree in clinical psych, I cannot imagine the levels of dissociation one would have to go through to distance themselves from all the cross-cultural perspectives that are taught in almost every course.

Ohh sure, his work release only has to do with his athletic skill, and giving an "opportunity" to a man who killed a person (and then fed her to his dogs) to play and socialize with his bros.

I wiggle like that when I hear 'ice cream' too. I'm a man in my mid 20's. :P

Absolutely! But more than that, what kind of best friend wouldn't let you bring your boyfriend of 5 YEARS?! That is a long ass time to be with someone who doesn't get invited to a presumably mutual friend's wedding at this point. On top of all the other shit, inviting someone else's boyfriend whom she's only known for…

I am so 'eh' with her.

Being willing to make others feel bad about themselves is also a good health indicator, lets keep that in mind too.

Tight lipped. Ha.

"I'm just being honest" is a rephrasing of "I know I am an asshole but I am doubling-down on my argument."

You're an honest person? You're honestly a piece of shit. Your advice is garbage and really, you're just projecting feelings about yourself towards others. You've convinced yourself that this advice would have been helpful to you in your youth because you got divorced to someone who you probably thought you would…

are you missing the point that she had a fucking rape kit done and it came back positive for him? or are you alleging she willingly had sex with him (after all, calling 911 for protection during a domestic incident is *bound* to make a girl all hot and ready for sex yaknowwhatImean) and then is falsely claiming 'rape'?

What is effed up is DECIDING what respect means for another person. This is her career. This is something she's been doing for years. He is hardly her first BF. Deciding that being in videos with men (which is acting) is wrong isn't about her respecting him. It's about him controlling her.

She's not going to like how the book ends.

I am ready to throw down over "#LiesToldByFemales I made it from scratch." There is a tart shell baking in the own right now that says otherwise, asshole. If I buy something, I say so. #bakingpride

"If the stable provider relationship she has causes her to take a punch every now and then, but on the overall she likes it, what's the problem?"

See the issue here? This very attitude, whether she's "happy" with it or not, is helping continue abusive attitudes and relationship modelling in the world.

A child bride may…

I don't want to join the piling on here, because I don't think you meant this from a bad place, but I want to talk about boundaries, because those mean a lot to me after working in a shelter.

What's interesting is that half those sexist tweets about women are written by women themselves. Also, the range of topics covered, whether it be personal grooming, kitchen prowess, mental health etc. Compared to the sexist tweets about men, although the sample size is small they are all about relationships,…

The key difference here though is that it's part of her job. It's one thing to have an expectation for your spouse not to cheat on you and quite another to tell your spouse that they have to change how they do their job to make you comfortable. He knew what her job entailed before he started dating her. His…

Not judging their dynamic, but I can see why this would be unsettling to some people. Many abusers don't allow their significant others to associate with the opposite sex, and think of them as property. If this is what works for this specific couple, I have no problem with it, but I can understand why it skeeves some…

Wow. Ok, sure. So he doesn't "let her" make music vids with guys, and so instead she makes the seemingly lesbian vid where she doesn't make eye contact with the other girl because they're both too busy staring at the camera? "Haha, don't worry, we're not actually into each other. Rihanna and I need only you. Only you,…

There's "traditional male/female roles" and then there's "big red flag from someone treating a partner like property."
